committees. So far this committee is
ahead in the race, with the committee
of Miss Margaret Num- a close sec

tiOns, and the Sleigh BELLS"

will be the territory of Vreeland Hor-

i've territory of Emma Wroten, Emma
Lindale, Theresa Austin, and Elva
Hall. The country girls will attend to
the school. Willis johnson will be the
delegate from Houston; James Mitz-
ner, Shawnee; and Margaret Num-,
Cedar Grove. Olga Jester, Losetta Jes-
ter and Anna Sheppard are going to
insure a crowd from Glendale.

is HE THE DEVIL
In RIDING BOOTSG
Ernest Terrence Threatens to Become
the Meanest Man on the Screen
OutriVals Own Record in
"BrOken Chains"
(Reported by Press Agent
Nixon Theatre.)

NIXON IneaLre.)
Who is the meanest man on the
screen? Is he Lon CLANCY, Eric Won
Stroheim, Robert McKim, George Sieg-
mann, Lowell Sherman, Wallace Oi
Noah Beery or Ernest Terrence?
Certainly, no one can deny that all of
these men have more than their share
of cinematic villainy.
The old-established bad men had
better look to their laurels, for Tor
renee, comparative newcomer to the
screen, is contributing so much down
right deviltry to the silver sheet that
he has become a symbol of evil. Carey
Wilson recently described him as
"Mephistofeles in riding boots grin
ming at human happiness"
Terrence crashed into motion pic
lures with his memorable performance
of the heavy" in "Tol'ble David, -
starring Richard Barthlemess. He was
so mean that spectators shuddered.
Now he has a role that will outdo that.
He has prominent role in Broken
Chains" winner of the $4,000 prize
in the Chicago Daily News scenario
contest, which the Goldwyn company
produced. In this he impersOnates a
brutal rancher who chains his wistful
young wife (played by Colleen Moore)
in her cabin. He beats her, he even
sneers at her grief for their dead
child. He smashes the baby's cradle
to bits. The picture will be shown at
the Nixon Theatre for two days, be-
ginning February 10 and 20.
For this role, Terrence grew full
black beard, which gives him feroc-
ious appearance. A rough corduroy
suit and black cap complete the pic
ture. Always he rides a monstrous
white horse. The actor is himself 6
feet inches tall and weighs 200 lbs.
Torrence's career parallels that of
Lon CLANCY, since both were, strange
ly enough, formerly musical comedy
comedians. Terrence was born in Ed
inburgh, Scotland, and after gradual
ing from the Edinburgh Academy stu
died music in Stuttgart, Germany, and
at the Royal Academy in London. In
1900 he won the Betjemann gold medal
for operatic singing in London, but he
adopted the comic opera stage for his
field. For ten years he was a success !
full comedian in London. Then he came |
to New York and registered hit as
Scotchman in "The Only Girl" He
was last on the stage in "The Night
Boat" musical comedy, in which he
as the ships captain.
1t has become a bromide that viii !
lains are the finest fellows in the
world off the screen. Well, Terrence is
no exception to the rule. He has been
married for twenty years to the same
wife, formerly known professionally
as Elsie Reamer. They have a fifteen
year-old boy, Ian, who is his fathers
constant companion. The actor, in pri-
vate life, has a hearty, friendly man

VALENTINO DANCED
HIS WAY TO SUCCESS
(Reported by Press Agent
Plaza Theatre.)

Rudolph Valentino, the celebrated
young dancer who has the leading
male role in "The Four Horesmen OF
the Apocalypse" a Rex Ingram pro-
duction for Metro to be shown at the
Plaza Theatre Friday, February %,
found his way to fame and fortune
/ through his nimble feet.
When you see Mr.. Valentino in this
screen adaptation of the wOrld-famous
novel of Vicente Blasco Ibanez by
June Mathis and notice his finished
acting, the sure swagger of the cafe
scenes laid in the Argentine, the pol
ish of his manner in Interpreting the
student and lover in Paris, 1T will be
your unQuestionable opinion that here
is a man initiated in theatrical ways
as a child.
But it was neither as a dancer nor
an actor that Mr. Valentino hoped to
take fortune by storm. It was in the
more humble sphere as a prospective
agriculturist that he came to the Unit
ed States.
But things happened swiftly for him
in New York. Soon he was busy teach
ing Broadway's regulars his graceful
steps.
From dancing to motion pictures
was an easy step. When Rex Ingram,
in his painstaking search for the type
to portray the pleasure-loving South
American hero of "The Four Horse
man" saw Valentino, he choose him
for the part.

William Marshall and Gilbert Warren
ton. Mr.. Marshall turned the camera
for George Melford's production, "The
Sheik," and Mr.. WarrentOn photo

CHAPTER XVII
Don Carlos.

Stewart took Nels, Monty and Nick
Steele aside out Of earshot, and they
evidently entered upon an earnest col
loquy. Presently the other cowboys
were called. They all talked more or
less, but the deep voice Of Stewart
predominated over the others. Then
the consultation broke up, and the
cowboys scattered.
Rustic, you Indians !" ordered
Stewart
The ensuing scene of action was not
reassuring to Madeline and her friends.
They were quiet, awaiting some one
to tell them what to do. At the offset
the cowboys appeared to have for
gotten Madeline. Some Of them ran
off into the woods. others into the open,
grassy places, where they rounded up
the horses and burros. Several cow
boys spread tarpaulins upon the
ground and began to select and roll
small packs, evidently for hurried
travel. Nels mounted his horse to ride
down the trail. Monty and Nick Steele
went off into the grove, leading their
horses. Stewart climbed up steep

fment her foreboding.
Darkness appeared to drop swiftly
down; the coyotes began their haunt
ing, mournful bowls; the stars showed
and grew brighter; the wind moaned
through the tips of the pines. The
cowboys below had built a fire, and
the light from it rose in a huge, fam
shaped glow. Madeline peered down
from the cliff. The distance was short.
and occasionally she could distinguish
word spoken by the cowboys. They
were unconcernedly cooking and eating.
Presently Nick Steele silenced the
campfire circle by raising a warning
hand The cowboys bent their heads,
listening. Madeline listened with all

louder, entered the grove, then the

He dismounted, and the sound Of his
low voice just reached Madeline.
Gene, it's Nels. Something doin'."
Madeline heard one of the cowboys
call, softly.
"Send him over" replied Stewart.
Nels stalked away from the fire.
