1.-THE Shepherd Of the Hills"
THE Shepherd of the Hills" that
widely read story of the OZarks, has
been filmatized under the direction
Of Harold Bell Wright, it's author. AS
a novel, this story has attained
popularity which has not been equal
ed by any other book in a decade.
AS a play, the success of this work
was phenomenal, and as q picturiza-
ton under the direction Of Mr..
Wright the story bids fair to mark
an epoch in the art of the silent
drama. Keokuk may have the photo
play for two days Wednesday
and Thursday-to be shown twice
daily, at 2:30 and SIS.
This picture has been made in the
heart of the Ozarks, and in California
Mr. Wright and his associates were
engaged for months in this great
work.
No expense has been spared, no
detail overlooked, and the countless
million who are familiar with Mr..
Wright's style and descriptive abili-
ty, those who understand in even
limited way the scopeless possible
ties Of the motion picture camera,
can readily realize that the great
word pictures of this author should
in the world of real pictures indeed
be work of art.
