LAUGHS MATCH THRILLS,

There is plenty of wholesome fun
mixed up in the exciting scenes Of
Ion, Johnny" the Louis Bennison
picture. which the Betzwood Film
company will present at the Grand
theatre Saturday and Sunday. 1t
has been the deliberate plan of Ira
M. Lowry, who directed the produce
ton, to supply laugh with every
thrill.
For instance, the way in which
Johnny Burke fools the men who
tried to find out the secret of his
mine is as original and ridiculous as
1t is dramatic. Bryson, the stock
promoter, engages a Mexican half
breed and two confederates to track
Johnny on his way to the mine.
Johnny observes that he is being fol-
lowed. He gets OF his horse, hides
it and climbs a tree, the largest
of which overhangs the trail. He
takes his rope and. as the half
breed rides under, drops the moose
over his shoulders. Then taking
hold OF the rope by the other end,
Johnny jumps down and his weight
carries the greaser up into the
branches
He then ties the rope to the tree
and jokingly leaves him to his fate,
catehas his horse and rides off,.

Dorothy Dalton. who always has
been associated with the virile part
she played in THE Flame of the Yu-
kon," will henceforth be referred to
as the Helen Douglas of "Extrava-
gance." which will again be shown
in the Elko theatre tonight. The
story, which was written by John
Lynch. tells Of woman who revels
in sham and pretense and with her
little private fortune tucked snugly
away, wrecks her husband by the
qualification of her vanity. How
they can start life anew, with love
and companionship is the problem in
this excellent photodrama.

SLIDING.

syndicata)

Uncle wiggily started of with
Toodle and Noodle Flat-tail, the
beaver chaps. about whom I have
told you some stories before this,
to go sliding.
Well have lots Of fun, Uncle
wiggily" said Toodle. as he and
his brother hurried on with the
bunny.
And you can slide as much as
you want to-" spoke Noodle.
Soon they came to the beaver
slide in the woodsL Many of the
queer animals were climbing up and
riding down. some sitting on their
broad, nat tails. and others sliding
on their backs or paws. just as they
liked.
Welcome to our slide, Uncle
Wiggily" called Grandpa whackum
the oldest beaver of them all.
Watch me"
Grandpa whackum dipped himself
in the water. and then ran to the
top Of the slide. He sat down, gave
himself little shove and away he
went in the mud.
"oh. that's fun" cried Uncle wig
gily.
But as long as you can't dip
yourself in the water. being q rab-
bit and not a beaver, here's a piece
of nat birch bark for you to sit on
said Toodle. Then he and his
brother made a sort of sled for
Uncle wiggily to sit on so the
bunny wouldn't tear his clothes,
NOR yet get them muddy.
So Uncle wiggilg went sliding
down hill on the muddy beaver slide
with q piece of birch bark for a
sled Down and down he slid,
having lots Of fun. and he was GO
ing down for about the sixty
den, out from the woods ran the
bad old Skeezicks. Right in the
middle Of the slide stood the un-
pleasant chap.
T~want you. Uncle wiggily- he
cried. as the bunny started to slide
down
Look outr' cried the rabbit gen
tleman. And down he came so fast
that he knocked the Skeezicks over
in . back~pepporsault and the bad
chap was tossed into the spring.
and when he crawled out he was
all wet So he didn't get the bunny
after all and Mr.. Lonsears had lots
OF fun sliding down the mud hill on
his bark sled.
And II the mosquito doesn't bite

the goldfish jump out into the
