GO AND GET IT" NOVEL
 PHOTOPLAY OFFERING

Patrons of the Ideal theatre who witnessed the latest Marshall Neilan production "Go and Get It," shown yesterday and last night, are con- vinced that it is the biggest thing in the way of motion pictures seen here this season.
 The picture is really a new idea Tn that it combines the deep, present day scientific questions with plot that holds human interest from the very beginning. There is not minute dur ing the show that the audience is not witnessing action, real action that can oly be produced with the aid of gen ius-director such as Marshall Neilan.
 Naturally, beautiful romance is woven into the story of a young re- porter who has an assignment to cover dealing with the most sensational mur- ders ever committed. He not only "gets the story," but also uncovers a plot to ruin his paper. He is ably as- sisted in his work by Wesley "Freck- les" Barry, as "Dinty," the copy boy. Young Barry is at his best in this pie ture, and he is constantly producing laughs by his kid pranks. How he called out the entire fire department just to get out of fourth-story room and to his paper office on schedule is worth the admission. The picture will be shown again tonight.

Where conviction can not be obtained otherwise, he said, the prosecuting attorney will be called and the full penalty of the law inflicted wherever the evidence warrants. He said ag- gressive action, more aggressive than heretofore, would be taken against gaming in any form.
