william S. Hart was perfectly al

fered by him in "Three-Word

him at the Queen Theatre for the
first time yesterday. Hart and the
West are inseparable. One rarely
thinks Of the star without unconsci-
ously assoc!ating him with the men
who have settled and made the West
what il is today.
The lure Of the old days Of the
pioneer. when travel was tedious and
slow. and when the man not only
contended with the adversities Of
nature. but was forced to endure
even more deadly enemies in tho
persons of the rowing, maddened In
dian tribes. is present in the pro-
logue OF the picture, when Hart Is
Ben Trego. a pioneer. who kills him
self rather than be taken by the In
dams. His two sons we're set on
the trail to civilization. Later on
in the picture Hart also plays these
characters.
The modern part OF the film shows
the actor as "Three-Word" Brand, a
silent, industrious ranch owner, and
as Governor Marsden Of the State OF
Utah. The men are twin brothers
and each is unaware OF the others
identity or even his existence. A
chain Of rapidly increasing circum-
stances brings the two together in a
marvellous fashion.
When Hart made this picture he
was among the gay and the free

able marriage with Jane Novak who
