Freckle-faced Wesley larry, the
inimitable movie celebrity, will grace
the screen Of the Rex theater again

him east to get All education. Here
he meets many youngsters of veal
thy parents, and he finds himself out
of the social swim. He is beset by
many trials and tribulations, and
finally he goes back home to his
faithful dog and his little country

CLOSED DOORS" AT THE ELKO
THURSDAY AND FRIDAY

No glyccrine tears for Alice Cal
houn, the Vitagraph star, who will
be seen at the klko theatcr on
Thursday and Friday. Realism is
her aim.
"If l can't cry naturally" said
Alice to her director, 81 won't cry
at all. If you wish me to shed pien-
ty Of real tears you can help me a
great deal by playing the talking
machine"
She named number of records
that always make her cry and d.
rector George V. Seyffertitz sent
the property boy after one of them.
A victroIa was installed near the set
and the record started, 1t was but
an Instant before Alice began to
snifflc and soon real tears were
rolling down her checks.
Miss Calhoun is naturally emotion
al and her sympathies are easily
played upon. In "Closed Doors" she
has a heavy dramatic role. In the
earleri scenes she is a young girl
light hearted and care free. The
story covers a period of several
years and the star is given oppor-
unity to show her ability to mature
before the camera. She plays the
lead at the ages of fourteen, eight
cen and twenty-five. The story is
one that is sure to hold the interest
and has in addition to many dramatic
scenes, vein of humor running
throughout it.

kM&;!EMlENBS
THE OLD NEST" AT GRAND
THEATER OPENS THURSDAY

When "The Old Nest" comes to
the Grand theater starting tomor-
row the people Of Bemidji will have
a chance to see picture that has
been hailed by critics and reviewers
as the most satisfying all-American
picture that has yet been produced.
The theme, that of a mother who
sees her six children leave her, one
by one, is common to American
families. All the poignancy of feel
ing that these leave takings arouse
in real life have been caught on the
screen!
Rupert Hughes is the author of
this unusual tale of mother love.
The picture was produced by Gold
wyn and was directed by Reginald
Barker. Mary Alden plays the old
mother, and her performance has
been said to be masterpiece of
screen acting.

Captain Scraggs fairly shrieked the
last two words and burst into tears.
Lord, Glib, old man." he raved, "what-
ever will we do?"
Thus appealed to, the doughty COM
modore permitted his two unmatched
optics to rest mournfully upon his
shipmates.
He gulped and thoughtfully rubbed
the knuckies Of his right hand where
the skin was barked off. He thought
Of the silly joke he and McGuffey had
thought to perpetrate on Captain
Scraggs by leading him up against a
beating at the hands Of cannibal
king, and with the thought came a
grim, hard chuckle, though there was
the look Of q thousand devils In his
eyes.
"Well, Mac, old sporty boy, guess
there amt much to do except to make
up our minds to die like gentlemen. If
was ever fooled by man in my life,
was fooled by that doggone mate. l
thought he'd tote square with the syn
dictate. I sure did,"
For a long time McGuffey gazed sea-
ward. He was slower than his ship
mates in making up his mind that the
mate had really deserted them and
sailed away with the fortunes Of the
syndicate. OF the three. however, the
stoical engineer accepted the situation
with the best grace. He spurned the
white sand with his foot and faced Mr..
Gibney and Captain Scraggs with just
the suspicion of a grin on his homely
face.
Il make n notion" he said, "that
the syndicate pass a resolution con-
demnin' the action Of the mate"
It was forlorn hope. and the jest
went over the heads Of the deck de-
partment. Said EIr. Gibney sadly:
"There amt no more Maggie II syn
dicatc."

Rocked Moment on His Sturdy Legs.

Rocked Moment on His Sturdy Legs
lacking the scientific training Of his
prime minister, seized q handful of
the Scraggs name and tore at it cruel
ly. A well-directed kick in the shins
however, caused him to let 60, and Il
moment later he was flying up the
beach with the angry Scraggs in full
cry after him. McGuffey headed the
king off and rounded him up 50
Scraggs could get at him, and the lat
ter at once dug in" like n terrier.
After five minutes Of mauling anG
tearing Captain Scraggs was out of
breath. so he let 60 and stood Off a
few feet to size up the situation. The
wicked McGufrey was laughing immOd-
erately, but to Scraggs it was no
laughing matter. The fact Of the mat
ter was the king was dangerous and
Scraggs had glutted himself with re-
venge.
II don't want to beat an old man to
DEATH" he gasped finally. "I'll let the
scoundrel 60. He's had enough and he
won't fight. Let's mosey along back
to the schooner and leave them here
to amuse themselves the best way they
know how"
"Right-O," said Mr.. Gibney, and
turned to walk down the beach to the
boat. A second later hOarse scream
Of rage and terror broke from his lips.
"What's up?" cried McGuffey. the
laughter dying out of his voice, for
there was hint of death In Mr.. Glib
ney's cry.
''Marooned! !" said the commodore
hoarsely. "Those two sailors have
pulled back to the schooner. and
there-look, Mac! My Gawd"
McGuffey looked, and his face went
winter than the foaming breakers be-
yond which he could see Maggie II, I'M
der full sail. headed for the open sea.
The small boat had been picked up,
and there was no doubt that ut her
present rate Of speed the schooner
would be hull down on the horizon by
sunset.
"The murderin' hound" whispered
McGuffey, and sagged down on the
sands. "Oh, the murderin' hound Of a
mate!"
"It's-it's mutiny," gulped Captain
Scraggs in a hard. strained voice.
"That bloody fiend Of mate! The sly
sneak-thief. with his pleasant smile
and his winnin' ways! Saw chance
to steal the Maggie and her rich cargo,
and he is lcavin' us here, marooned on
n desert island, with two canr!aals."

 TO BRING LAWSUIT
Charges That Shipping Board Seized Fire Truck and Will Not Pay for
 It-Feeling Runs High.

South Norwalk. Nov. 23-The South Norwalk police today were looking for the United States shipping board to arrest it on suggestion ofsCorporation Counsel Tammany. The trouble grows out of differences of opinion as to reimbursement of the city for a pumping engine seized by the ship ping board in 1918 fer the Wilson Point plant of the board.
 The engine belonged to the local fire department and the board took it to give protection at the shipbuild- ling plant The board claims that the engine was loaned and the city claims that the government seized 1t and should pay for 1t. For two years the matter has been debated between the corporation counsel and counsel for the shipping board
 Yesterday the shipping board sent the engine to town and 1t was taken to fire department house. On advice of Counsel Tammany the deputy chief refused to receive it. The engine was started on trip around the city and finally abandoned on city property. The police were called upon to re- move it5and Mir. Tammany suggested that the police compel the shipping board to remove the engine or arrest it for abandonment of property.
