Real Rough Riding
Done by Will Rogers
In Latest PhOtOpLdy
G COLLEEN MOORE

Will Rogers does some OF the fin
est riding Of his screen career in
the Goldwyn picture, Water. Water
Everywhere" which comes to the
Strand tomorrow. There is a mad
race across country, which taxes
to the utmost the strength and abil-
ity Of both horse and rider, and
which seems at times almost to end
in disaster.
There is a run which ends in a
leap through the door of saloon,
the horse bringing up short in the
middle of the floor. This required
the most excellent coordination of
brain and muscle, to avoid being
swept from the horse when he en-
tered the low door.
The exit from the saloon Is even
more sensational. Mr.. Rogers
mounts the animal, dashes madly
at the door, throws himself partly
out of the saddle, hanging by one
foot, to avoid hitting the door
frame, and is just recovering from
this position when the horse leaps
the high railing in front OF the sa-
loon, and is off at a mad gallop.
And, at the finish of the picture,
comes a leap of horse and man into
the swirling waters of rocky
stream to save the life Of a girl.

Doraldins, known far and wide
for her daring interpretations of un-
familiar Hawaiian dances. is the
star in Passion Fruit" the Metro
production which comes as the fea-
ture attraction at the Criterion
Theater this week. This wonderful
creature who was so idoliZed and
popular on the stage with her hula
dances, brings to the screen both a
superb gift for acting and a mar
velous dancing ability. Not only
that, but she introduces into the
picture many strange dances Of the
South Sea Islands never hitherto
seen. One is a religious dance, called
