The Mutiny Of the Elsinore," de-
clared by many to be the best story ever
written by that weaver Of romapces.
Jack London, is n story of the sea and
young mans hatred Of the waters
which he finally overcomes through the

The story is carefully built around the
adventures of Dick Sommers, son Of the
owner of the Elsinore, who finally over.

ships for voyage on the craft.
The cast includes Mitchell Lewis in
the character of Dick Sommers, Helen

The picture contains many exciting
moments and Is full of action through

The big fight at sea is the one out

The work of Miss Ferguson as Peggy"

She handles her difficult role In
