ment of Uncle Tom Without the

This story is all about an operate
score. but the novel handling OF the
plot, the unusual situations, and the
keen sense of clean fun and tense ORA
matte suspense lifts 1t 10 the class OF
most satisfying motion picture enter
tainment.
Albert Ray, as Brian Mcbride. is
young composer of rare fame in his
home town, having become the popu-
lar song writer that he Is, chiefly
through the magnificent rendition OF
his compositions by his singing sweet
heart. Millicent Lloyd (Elinor Fair).
Everything goes swimmingly for the
youthful pair until the little town 3
visited by Broadway musical show.
The managers of the troupe are at
once taken by the beauty and voice
of E1illicent and make her a flatterinS
offer to join the show, which she ac
cepts, and bids her home town good
bye.
Sorrowfully Brian watches her de-
parture. and then his love for Millicent
proves his inspiration to compose an
opera that will bring him fame, and
success for Millicent, for in his fancy
he sees her as the overnight favorite
singing the leading role. His opera
completed, he journeys to New York,
but the musical show has had tough
season, and the managers refuse TO
grant him an interview. One Of the
managers, however, at Brian's request
accompanies Brian TO his room, and
it is while there that he spies the score
on which Brian has based his fond
est hopes. A glance over the music is
sufficient to incite the manager to
theft, and he starts a miniature blaze
in the room. causing the confusion
that gives him the opportunity for
stealing the score. But he burns the
last two pages. leaving Brian in the
belief that the entire score has been
destroyed. Nothing daunted, the young
composer sets about the task of re-
writing his masterpiece, but he is not
prepared for the shock when he goes
to the office of the managers. and
finds the score being played over, as
their own composition, his demand for
recognition resulting In his being
beaten into insensibility.
Brian, his spirit broken, drifts to a
cheap saloon and is amusing himself
at the piano when the president of a
large publishing house is passing,
hears him, and at once engages his
services. 1t happens that the two
thieving managers have been unable to

ginning today, is another of the always
absorbing stories of the northern lum-
Der camps.

He is at once liked and disliked, feared

OF the lumbermen who have learned to
respect his fighting qualities. Then

partner, and the partners daughter
visit the camp, and Edith, the girl is
at once attracted to Bill. Young Van
