proval Of the enthusiastic audiences
was shown Buster Keaton's two-reel
comedy. MY wife's Relations" in
which the smileless comedian as
sumes the role Of a young man who
is married to a woman who is seek
ing not matrimony but to have him
placed under a peace bond by a Pol

When Romance Rides" will be
retained as the major feature Of the
bill throughout the first three days
of the current week. contains all of
the lively incident, the human char
acterizations and the beautiful scenic
backgrounds that have comprised
such conspicuous elements of appeal
in previous Zane Grey pictures. 1t
visualizes one of the most thrilling
horse races ever filmed and as a cli-
max the heroine is seen tied face
down on the back Of a fear-madden-
ed horse plunging toward a preci-
pice. This episode. as well as the
race during the rodeo, are exciting
to the last degree

Agnes Ayres In "Borderland.,

Disbelief in the ability of spirits
to communicate with the living
will offer no bar to ones enjoy
ment of "Borderland." the beauti-
full drama of love and sacrifice that
brings Agnes Ayres.. the noted
Paramount photoplay beauty, to the
screen of Loew's Columbia Theater
this week. 'Borderland." by Bau-
lah Marie Dix, is a thoroughly novel
and different sort of photoplay.
"Borderland" was scenarized by
the author. Miss Dix, and was di-
rected by the noted Paul Powell
with a cast that includes Milton
Sills. Fred Huntley. Bertram Grass-
by. Casson Ferguson, Ruby Lafay-
ette. Sylvia A shton, frankie Lee,
Mary Jane Irving. Dale Fuller.
Walter Wills and others. Tho
story concerns a young. reckless
matron who is warned from the
path CT folly by tho spirit of an
ancestor who made the same error
fifty years before. There are two
distinct plots in the story and two
separate sets of characters, crcat-
ing story that Is not only a de-
cided screen novelty but a story
interest and suspense throughout.
Miss Ayres. in "Borderland," is
seen as young wife who believes
herself neglected by her husband
and soon finds herself headed foe
the breakers of life in company
with her husbands cousin. In the
meantime. Dora Beckett, the spirit
of one of the young wife's an:es-
tors, attempts to warn the young
wife not to tread the path she
herself trod
The warning is conveyed to the
young wife, who drives furiously
back to the private school where
her little son is kept, just in time
to prevent his death by an acci-
dent. Thus warned. she turns her
steps from the path of folly and
finds real happiness in the love of
her child and her husband, The
characterizations contributed by
Milton Sills as the husband. by
Casson Ferguson as the villain. and
by various other members of the
supporting cast make splendid
background for the brilliant per-
formance of the star.
The management of Loew's CO.
lumbia has supplemented the fea-
tured attraction with an interest
ing array of short-length screen
attractions. while the Columbia,
Symphony Orchestra. under the di-
rection of Leon Brusilof. offers a
splendid overture selection ana a
brilliant musical accompaniment.

of the big moment in a modern flap
per's life is presented as the major
attraction. 1t Is a Universal spe-
cial production starring Marie Pre-
vost, a former moving picture bath
ing beauty. From the atmosphere
of the w0lthy to the subdued quiet
of a cheap but pretty suburb, the
backgrounds vary in a rare combi-
nation that Is suitable to the simple
thread of the story. The most
placid little lark out in the country
and the widest night at the Puri-
tan Club-a notoriously gay organi-
zation-furnish theme and action
aplenty. Miss Prevost's role is that
of a girl who is "a model" in a
Fifth avenue fashion shop. She
helps the "old man" put over deals
by entertaining out-of-town Gus
toners at cafes and theaters but
along comes a backwoods fellow
with ambition for success in the
city and Molly May Malone is
through" as a butterfly.
Edward Hearn is cast in the lead
ing masculine role with Hallam
Cooley, Betty Francisco, Richard
Daniels, William Robert DAILY,
George Williams and others in
principal parts. Scenes Of home
life full of Irish humor have a dis
tinct charm.
At times when weighty themes
are tuggled around on the screen in
countless pictures, such a breezy
comedy drama as Her Night of
Nigths" offers most welcome relief
No feature photoplay ever came
