| have seen the play in some form or
another in many of the large cities

preached on the theme. To my mind,
as an old movie fan and theatregoer,
the outstanding feature of the story
is the pathetic sight of the little girl
sent to the inn to bring back the
errant father. This never fails to
move audiences, no matter what kind
of production is offered them. The
simplicity of children's characters al
ways strikes home, and the theme of
''Ten Nights in a Barroom" empha-
sizes this fact. 1t is tragic for one
to say that one has looked on the ac-
ton in real life. 1t is probably Oc-
curing at this moment.

AT THE PALACE THEATRE
"FlOwer OF The North"

1t is no easy task to man a canoe
through the rapids of the rivers in the
mountains of Northern Oregon. 1t is
doubly difficult to go through these
rapids in a paddleless canoe toward
great falls without a serious accident
occurring. Yet this is just the feat
that Pauline Starke, the heroine of
Vitagraph's "Flower of the North"
performed.
This brave girl faces death in order
to make one of the most thrilling
scenes in the production. She over
above the falls at a point where the
water was rushing on at the rate of
thirty-fve miles an hour. For several
moments she breasts the current
waiting for Henry B. Walthall, the
hero of the production, to swim out
and rescue her.
When the scene was completed, and
the two players safely ashore they
were really exhausted, and it required
a rest of several hours before they
were able to continue the scenes.
"Flower of the North" which will
be shown at The Palace Theatre on
Friday and Saturday, is based upon a
novel by James Oliver Curwood, and
is considered one of his best works.
An all-star cast under direction of
David Smith was engaged for the
