Files require moisture, and fresh

therefore unlikely to harbor any

picture that is an extraordinary de-
parture from the type that he has
made famous. 1t is a thrillingly ro-
mantle story, with Mix playing the
part of a dashing gentleman adyen-
turer. and early reports on the pic
ture declare that Mix's versatility
and power as an actor in his new
role has dazzled and filled with
pleasant surprise all those who have
seen it. He is revealed especially,
in the early scenes, as comedian
of very positive ability.
The atmosphere of the story is
unusually varied and colorful, rang
ing from an American city to the
capital of a tropical republic, with
ships, circus in full blast and a
royal wedding adding flavor to the
whole. To the host of Mix admir-
ers throughout the world it reveals
him as a new genius.
