A large crowd was in attendance Mon

ten soldiers. representing six national
titles. The young men had been in
training, educationally and militari!y,
for only few months and those who
were born in foreign lands showed re-
markable progress in absorbing Amer
lean principles. Their songs, speech

audience so much that they were

"THE HUNCH" AT GRAND
THEATER LAST TIME TONIGHT

One of the gayest screen comedies
ever produced was seen last night
at the Grand theater, and will be
shown for the last time tonight. A
clean, crisp, clever connection is "Thc
Hunch," and it shows Gareth Hughes,
who rose to stellar prominence in
"Garments Of Truth" and "Senti.
mental Tommy" in the merriest bit
of characterization that he has con-
tributed to motion pictures. As q
young New York broker who is ar
rested and accused of his own mur-
der, his winning personality is felt
at it's happiest.. He is decorative
young man, is Mr.. Hughes, and he
acts with the technical perfection and
instinct for just the right touch that
justify Mr.. Fiske's characterization
Of him as one of those who are keep
ing the fires Of genius cnkindled in
the thcater.

GIRLS DON'T GAMBLE" AT
ELkO THEATER MONDAY

Genuine comedy drama as define
ated and transposed to the screen
seldom attains the effect of Girls
Don't Gamble"
This production which will be seen
at the Elko theater next Monday and
Tuesday has been adapted from the
Saturday Evening Post story by
George Weston. 1t abounds in com
edy situations. 1t is one laugh chas-
ing another, and for realism much
more could not be coupled in a fca-
turc as entertaining throughout it's
length. 1t is compact in it's thrill-pro-
voking qualities, and there is never
an interval when the comedy or it's
more serious side lags for lack of in
terest. In detail every attention has
been given to the feature to see
what is graphically correct in real
life should be similarly treated in reel
life.
The love interest will quicken the
interest of those who knew its defini-
ton more keenly in their youth, while
the youth of the audience will be-
come more inf1amed by it's true mes
sage. its moral aspect and the lesson
1t has for all whose gospel is right
eousness and nothing but righteous
ness. It is a .6ermon without the ele-
ment of nfeachines;s. 49,

for one of the most fearless stunts

The logging camp scenes of Con

The story concerns Dorcas Rema-

uncle, a mysterious recluse and lum-
Der baron. A crafty and queer house,
keeper rules his prison-like home in
the deep woods. Menaced by the
housekeeper and driven to despera-

the place, Dorcas runs away. She has
fallen in love with Jevons, an edu-

life is threatened she takes up his
fight, outwits her uncle's hirelings
