Ciyne Theater Tonight

Zane Grays wonderful story The
L. +. Trail will be seen at the Clyne
theatcr this evening and Thursday
night. 1t is a thrilling perturbation of
romantic drama based on the days
when the Union Pacific railway was
being built thru the west. 1t is played
with an excellent cast. and is an au-
thentic representation OF life as it was
lived in the west at the period in which
the story is laid. The picture has the
happy quality of absorbing the atten-
tion of the spectator-of drawing him
into the atmosphere and spirit of the
story.
Marguerite De Ia Motto IS charming,
and Kathlyn Williams is equally
good. Robert McKim is
ever faithful in the role OF a
villain. and lives up to his acting repu-
tation and Roy Stewart is pleasing as
the much loved hero.
