The thrills of the days when the
gold seekers crowded the "trail' to
Alaska are lived again in Dorothy
Dalton's latest Paramount picture,
The Idol of the North" The author
has framed a story with all of the
rough and ready atmosphere of the
Canadian northwest, much of the ac-
ton taking place in the Aurora Bo-
reals saloon and dance hall of "To-
TEN City," which is modelled after the
Dawson City of the gold days. Miss
Dalton is seen as a dancer who, be-
cause of her energy in trimming
the miners, is called "The Idol of the
North" The miners seek revenge
on her by forcing her at the point of
a gun to marry Martin Bates, derelict
drifter to the northwest. She succeeds
in not only making a man of him, but
actually loving him.
Ben Turpin
One of the funniest pictures ever
brought to Honolulu is "a Small
Town Idol" Mack Sennett's famous
crosseyed star, Ben Turpin is the focus
for the stirring panorama of whirl-
wind events. The plot is merely suf-
ficient to give Turpin an opportunity
