APPEALING PLAY
OF NORTHWEST TO
BE AT ARMSTRONG

An appealing story of the Can
adam Northwest is promised in
George Melford's latest production,
Behold My Wife," which will be
seen at the Fort Armstrong theatre
soon. The picture was adapted
from novel by Sir Gilbert Parker.
The action centers around the In
congruous marriage Of Frank Ar
mour, the younger son Of an aristo-
cratic English family. and Lali,
granddaughter OF an Indi1h chief
tain, whom he meets willis serving
as an officer Of the Hudson's Bay
company in northwestern Canada.
On his return to the company's
trading post from a hunting expedi-
ton, Armour receives word that
his fiapcee in England has Tilted
him, largely on account of his fam
ily's opposition to /her. In a mo-
ment of drunken rage, Armour
marries the Indian maiden and
sends her back to England to hu-
initiate his family. How, through
the efforts Of Franks elder broth
er, she develops into a beautiful
and polished young woman and
how young Armour himself is re-
generated forms the theme of the
story.
Director Melford has developed
the story amid a rugged atmo-
sphere Of rare beauty, thoroughly
in keeping with the theme. The
notable cast includes Elliott Dex-
ter, Mabel Julienne Scott, Milton
Stills, and Ann Forrest. The pic
ture is Paramount.
