ARCADE SUNDAY AND MONDAY
THRILLfNG BATTLE
WITH LION FTrATUIsE H
OF THE ''SQUAW MAN.

One of the most thrilling scenes ever
photographed in motion picture is
the battle fought by Henry. Earl of
kerhill. with a great lio min which the
lEnglishman is slain, and which is gra-
phically pictured in Cecil B. DeMille' S
superb perturbation of Edwin Milton
Royle's THE Sauaw Man." This pho
toplay, which is said to be one of the
best ever produced by this sterling di-
rector, VIII be shown at the Arcade
theatre next Sunday and Monday.
The battle scene is laid in an Afri-
can Jungle. The Earl of Kerhill is an
lembezzlcr whose crime has been
lshouldered by his cousin Jim Wyn-
lnegate, to spare Henry's wife Diana,
whom Jim loves, disgrace and suffer
ing. After her husbands death in the
Jungle, Llama traces Jim to Wyoming
where he is living on a ranch with his
isquaw. and after some exceptionally
tragic scenes, they are reunited in
their mutual love.
The lion used in the picture is per-
lfectly harmless except in a film scene.
Assistant director Sam Wood played
hide and seek with the big cat at re-
hearsals, but Thurston Hali who plays
the part of Sir Henry. who battles with
the lion, entered into the contest with
no little misgivings. The lion was
lazy an dpreferred doing to acting.
But when the camera clicked the ami
NAL was there with both feet as II were
and Hall was realistically mauled by
the king of beasts.
The various roles are in the hands
of stars including Elliott Dexter. Ann
Little, Theodore Roberts Jack Holt,
Tully Marshall and others.
