FANS WANT
BIG ACTION THRILLS

Action!
That's what photoplay fans want.
In "A Man of Action" at the
Grand theatre, Thursday. Thomas H..
Ince has produced mystery-comedy
that's all action from start to finish.
There's a little love, plot the
fans can't guess until the end, plenty
of laughs and big thrill. With
never a minutes let-up, "a Man of
Action" is accurately described as a
"movie that moves"
Here's the plot in brief: Douglas
MacLean plays a silk stocking youth
with more dough than ambition. The
girl he loves Marguerite de la Motte)
has enough pep for whole boarding
school. She drives him out to do
something-and he doesl
Wen say he doesl He gets mixed
up with band of crooks, who black
jack him into robbery of his own
mansion, What mix-up! Cops,
crooks and kisses!
The cast of "A Man of Action"
is a strong one. Douglas MacLean
is big favorite with the fans-es--
pecially the ladies. And Margue-
rite de la Motto, featured in "The
Three Musketeers". has the principal
feminine role.

Some of the high spots in camp life are best told by the Duffle Bag, which is quoted from here on:
 Council of Ay 'Chay-tee. ! One night last week great mystery descended upon Camp Keemosahbee like blanket of fog covering the lake. Several members of the camp were tapped upon the shoulder, were commanded to listen to the magic words of the all mysterious and left camp, to be seen no more until the following day. Great curiosity was aroused among those not tapped and the opportunity is now taken to some what explain these queer actions.
 The council of Ay 'Chay-tee has been formed in Camp Keemosahbee. Those who are members of this coun- ell are pledged to secrecy as to it's purpose and as to anything that goes on at its meetings. It is an honor society and it is considered a great honor to be elected to membership.
 It is permissible to give list of the members so far:
