SIX FOOT FOUR

1t is not often that we are able to
present such a popular favorite twice
in one week, but Will Rogers always
is certain of a very warm reception
at the Maui theaters, and it will be a
pleasure to the lovers of western pic
lures to see him in six Foot Four
It's a regular Roger western, full of
good riding, nifty shooting and cow
boy stunts that will give you a chance
of seeing some of the leading western
actors at their best. Will Rogers is
supported in the lead by Viola Vale
who handles a horse and a gun as
easy as she does her powder puff,
six Foot Four is full of action from
the word go and the locations are
some of the finest to be seen of the
great west.

THE

Tom Mix the ever popular Fox star
is with us again in the leading role
of "The Cyclone" AS a sergeant in
the Royal North West mounted police
of Canada, Mix has plenty of oppor-
tunity for his usual daring character
izations. The story was written by
Col. Todhunter Marigold. AS a re-
ward for a feat of Craftsmanship, Mix
as Sergeant Ryerson, is entrusted
with an important mission, the ex-
tirpation of a smuggling gang. The
story shifts from Vancouvers China
town up into the great Northwest, and
works up amid splendid locations in
to a regular Mix climax for unusual
features and intensity.

BouuainviUea Troop

The last meeting of this troop was
spent in discussing the good deeds
done by the scouts at the Fair.
Miss Seibert was at the meeting
and she brought a regulation signal
ling flag with which we enjoyed prac-
Using very much. Everyone worked
hard and we hope to all have the
alphabet learned by next meeting.
She also drilled us in marching and
we had lots of fun remembering "By
the right flank" and left oblioue
march,"
We like to have her attend our
meeting as often as she can. After
wards we played long ball.

THE

One of the best characterizations
that Will Rogers has ever done is
that of Sam Gardner in the Goldwyn
picture, 'The Strange Boarder." 1t
is a fine story of the west, Rogers in
the role of the big bluff w%esterner
though the victim of confidence men,
refuses to let their duplicity shake
his faith and trust in the inheret
goodness of his fellow men is one for
which this rugged fine-hearted screen
star is peculiarly fitted. Jimmy
Roger, Wills own four year old boy
plays the part of Billy Gardner, and
the work of this boy is not only a
charm in itself but it lends addition
al effectiveness to Rogers character.

This troop has a publicity commit
