JONES is HERE IN FOX
BELLS OF SAN JUAN:
PLAYING AT THE PASTlME

Patrons of the Pastime theater
are to have real treat when the
William Fox production, Bells of
San Juan" starring Charles Jones.
opens today. Charles Jones, who
has been called "the most con-
vincing actor on the screen" is
said to be at his best in this
western story of romance and adj
venture.
Jones, who is cast in the role
OF the sheriff of San Juan, is fast
becoming one of the leading
screen heroes. His feats of dar-
ing are especially noteworthy.
The story is one of wild and
woolly westerners, in which Jones
won his fame. He plays the part
of a young westerner who is
elected sheriff to succeed his fa-
ther, who was murdered. He
swears to avenge his parent. The
keeper of the local dance han and
saloon is suspected and the son
of the murdered official brings
him to justice.
A pretty love theme is wound
through the story. FRITZ Bru-
nette. in the role of lady doc
tor, is said to do exceptionally
good work.
