This Brilliant Picture Will Be Shown At The Regent Theatre, This 4
 City, February sth. G

Zane Grey's Desert Gold" which comes to the Regent Theatre Tues day, February 8th, is certain to add lustre to the fame of America's premier novelist. Not only has Desert Gold' been acclaimed the greatest of Zane Grey's works bus jamin B. Hampton and Eltinge F..

Lincoln, star of countless cinema successes, includes Eileen Percy, Margery Wilson, Edward Coxen, Walter Long, w. Lawson Butt, Rus sell Simpson and Arthur Morrison.
 Desert Gold,' w. w Hodkin- son release, depicts the stirring ad- ventures of Dick Gale, a sturdy sol- dier of fortune. He encounters an old college mate, Captain Thorne, on histravels, and assists with the aid of two cowboys in rescuing the army officers sweetheart, Mercedes Castenada, from Rojas, an outlaw. and his pack of plunderers. Thorne returns to duty but Die; and the cowboys journey with Mercedes to Rio Forlorn to seek refu se for her at the home of Jim Bedding, a rancher.
 That night, Gale, Thorne and the: cowboys outwit the bandits and make their way to Yuma. Hiding Mercedes in cave, Gale and the others take their stand to battle the outlaws. The desporado band IS wiped out, with the exception of Rojas, who finds Mercedes and att tacks her. Yaqui rushes to the. rescue and throws the bandit chief over the cliff.
 Even with Rojas out of the way there are obstacles aplenty in Gales fight for the hand of Neibs Belding's foster daughter. How his valiant ranch rider sweeps them aside leads to smashing climax thriller that will at once surprise and hold spellbound an already high-a ly thrilled audience. !,
