"BOUND IN MOROCCO"
SNAPPY PHOTOPLAY

The scenes of Bound in Morocco"
are laid in Algiers and it is a snappy
twentieth century photoplay filed
with comedy which travels at high
speed throughout. The picturesque
country of Algiers, which has been
the scene of numerous great paint
ings, is the home of Douglas Fair
Banks latest picture produced under
Aircraft auspices. The action has to
do with Arabisns, beauties of the
harem, fights with bandits, etc, in
which Mr.. Fairbanks portrays char
acter quite different from any he
has hitherto essayed.
In addition to the features named,
great travelling caravans, with their
tawdry camels, goats and other AMI
mails are shown. There are battles
and chases on the Arabian desert,
in which hundreds take part and in
which Mr.. Fairbanks does his custom
airy daredevil stunts, one of these
being a dive from the top of high
sand dune upon the neck of an
Arabian rider, who is passing by on
a swiftly speeding horse beneath.
This is followed by an exciting hand
to hand fight, in which, Of course,
Mr.. Fairbanks energies, Of course.
There are numerous. situations in
this story, in addition to the Fair
banksen methods, which makes this
story unusually interesting. The
photoplay win be shown at the Magic
City Theatre on next Tuesday, Oct
