METROPOLITAN
"The Sku Pilot"

"The Sky Pilot" First Nationals
realistic perturbation of Ralph o'Con-
nor's widely read novel of the West,
will be the attraction for the current
week at Crandall's Metropolitan The
ater. In presenting this pretentious
production. the Metropolitan will add
to the prestige IT has achieved by
Iengthening the impressive list of
exceptional pictures IL has brought
to the screen during the current sea-
son.
"The Sky Pilot" was made under
the personal supervision of Gather
Inc Curtis and reflects the feminine
viewpoint in many of its most ar
tistic aspects. 1t adheres rigidly to
the narrative penned by Mr.. Connor,
and sights none of the romantic,
sensational or dramatic elements
embodied in that colorful recital of
a young minister's experiences among
hard -hghting cowboys in a commun-
ity that was peculiarly prejudiced
against his ministerial activities.
John Bowers is cast in the title role
OF this magnificently set subject with
its background of majestic grandeur
In the Canadian Rockies. In the
character of Gwen, the girl OF the
plains and the mountains who car
ried the love of a woman In the heart
OF child, Colleen Moore has her
most fruitful opportunity.
Miss Moore will be remembered as
the plaintive figure of the young
mother with Wesley Barry in 'Dinty."
As the foreman of the ranch, who
finally becomes the Sky Pilots closest
pal. David Butler is especially well
cast. Others in the company offer en-.
cellent supporting character studies.
One of the most thrilling climaxes
ever screened depicts the stampede
of 1000 infuristed steers over the
helpless body OF an injured girl,
whose life Is saved only by the hero
ism of the Sky Pilot, who waves the
beast aside at the imminent risk of
his own life. There is a denouemenI,
too, OF most exquisite romance that
places this SPLENDID picture in the
same category with "The Miracle
Man" in its heart appeal and the in
tensity OF its grip.
The bill for the week will be aug
mented by the customary supplement
tary Aim and orchestral features.

play has been written by A. e. Thorn
as, author of those delightful come
dies, "The Rainbow" "Just Suppose"
and "The Champion" and II brings
back to the stage Mary Ryan after a
retirement of more than a year.
Miss Ryan is the featured member
OF the cast. She needs no introduc-
tion to theatergoers, for her notable
success in "On Trial" "The House OF
Glass" The Little Teacher" and The
Fortune Hunter" won for her an en-
viable position on the American
stage.
Mr.. Thomas play is described as a
"slice of life presented in play form"
1t is neither melodrama nor farce, IL
makes no effort to reform world poll
tics or world thought. 1t was frankly
written to entertain. to reveal in hu-
morous fashion an experience that at
one time or another befalls every hu-
man being.
The title is derived from Mr.. Thorn
as presentation of the problem that
invariably confronts US when we
come to a turn in the road of our af-
fairs. 1t answers the question or
What lies just around the corner?'
question that has been asked by mil
lions of human beings and will con-
tinue to be asked until the end of
time.

will embrace many well-known play
ers. including Harry c. Browne, Percy
