SCENES IN
 "THE HONOR SYSTEM"

Although much has been said about the general human sympathy aroused in "The Honor System" the spec tacular William Fox produc- tion which is to appear next Thursday and Friday at the Jewel Theatre, one cannot lose sight of the other great and distinguished qualities of this master drama which R. A. Walsh directed.
 Eliminating the great moral story, the powerful record of human love and sympathy, and judging it from the view point of a spectacle, one is forced to the conclusion that lit is one of the finest pieces of realism the motion picture stage has yet seen.
 True, no great cities tumble, and no heavens fall, and the bowels of the earth are not exposed to view, but this photoplay shows more real, fiat on the earth human exist jence than any film story hitherto made.
 There are scenes depicting the frontier life of Arizona which are without parallel on the screen. MT. Walsh was born and reared in Arizona and his men of the West breathe, snort and fight West ern fashion.
 1 The most moving scene is when the cowpunchers and rangers of one town dash madly on their mustangs and cayuses to the rescue of their pals in another border town. This second town has been raided by Mexican bandits, and MT. Walsh's scene makes Villas Columbus raid look like game of croquet.
