REMARKABLE FILM SENSATION,
over THE HILL" TO BE
SEEN HERE.

."Oyer the Hill,N the William Fox
perturbation of one of Will earle.
TONS Farm Ballads which broke
the best record Of any screen attrac'
ton that ever visited Broadway,
playing there one solid year in six
different theatres, will be seen at
The Garden Theatre, Rockingham,
September 18th and 14th.
The story of Over the Hill" was
adapted from Cartoons poems by
Paul HI. Sloane, who wrote screen
story that has defied criticism in
this form of entertainment. The
story has to do with the universities
of a typical American family, the
mother OF which is called upon to
bear the brunt of all the shortcom
ings OF her little flock. The princi,
pal characters, aside from the
mother, are a lazy father and six
lively kids one of whom is destin,
ed to figure as the black Sheep"
As the story unfolds, the youngsters
are seen growing to manhood and
Womanhood, and eventually leaving
the homestead to set out into the
world for themselves.
The story is worked up to one of
the most beautiful climaxes ever
devised and one that is said to stir
the emotions of men and women as
they never before have been stirred
by stage presentation. There is
also abundant comedy in the picture
and the production can well be said
to meet the entertainment needs Of
every member OF any family, young
and old.

Here's the. golden text for today:
See Monte Cristo" if you have to
mortgage the old homestead.
You can buy a house any day, but
it's only once in a twelvemonth
that you have a, chance to see a pic
ture like this--one that delivers a
succession of dramatic knockouts
without mauling your intelligence at
the same time.
It's really a little hard to write
about Monte Cristo" without get
ting maudlin in praise. 1t is such
relief from the stodgy, unimagina-
tive stuff that makes up our ordi.
nary cinema fare. The same man
who directed this--Emmett ]. Flynn
has done some mighty good pic
lures before, but in Monte Cristo'
he has got on a new plane.
Z We can't tell you all about it be
tween here and the bottom of the
page. Let's say, then, that it is SUI
perior in every aspect of the celia
loid art, and then single out for spe-
cial attention the two ways in which
it most eXcels Its economy of film
and the beauty of its scenes.
AS for No. /:
The moving pictures have too Of
ten squandered yards and yards of
film on material that required only
inches. They have fioundered
around with lots of inconsequential
business which has obscured the
real plots and padded and encum-
bered the weak ones.
But the producer of Monte Cristo'
has got the creation story idea. He
had to have to get Dumas novel in
to a moving picture. Every flicker
advances the plot. Not six feet Of
film in the entire production are
wasted. And this economy is not
at the expense OF good con
tinuity. Flynn and whoever edited
the film have merely shown an ex-
traordinary gift for leaving out the
