Is Literary Sc nSation

ter, a famous young actor of
Merton of the Movies" fame, as
the star, and with Ernest Terrence,
May McAvoy, George Fawcett and
Zazu Pitts, in featured roles.
The selection of Glenn Hunter
for the stellar role was a wise one.
He is by long odds the best artist
for the exacting part of Guy Plum
mer, the boy in the story who rises
to popular favor, wins and betrays
the girl he loves. The startling Sc
quences need an artist of Glenn'S
type to portray adequately, and he
does this in no uncertain manner.
Mr.. Hunter is not new to the
screen but this marks his debut in
Paramount pictures.
Guy Plummer, son of rigid!y
orthodox minister meets and loves
Bee Chaw, daughter of a wealthy
aetheist. The young couple are
secretly wed and this incident pro-
vokes a near tragedy which has its
influence on any lives. But happi
ness comes at last after a series of
breath-taking sequences.

IN MIRACLE BABY
Harry Carey Appears at Rylan-

Latest Feature

They prospected in the hills for
ore. What they found was lone,
deserted, wailing baby,
What two men did to keep alive
this scrawny youngster, hemmed in
for a winter by deep SHOWS, forms
one Of the most interesting episodes
of the new Harry Carey picture,
The Miracle Baby which will be
shown at the Rylander next Satur-
day with William Duncan in chap
ter of The Steel Trail and q
Century comedy miles Of Smiles. -
Carey plays the role of a young
assayer who by the promoters Of d
worthless mine, loses the confidence
of the man whose daughter he
loves, finally involved in a stabbing
affray and, altogether, seems dis
credited individual in the commun-
ity. Only one person still clings to
her faith in him, and when thu
skein of circumstances in unraveled
the young assayer's sweetheart is
thankful she held out against the
opportunities of a rival sutton.
THE Miracle Baby" was written
by Frank Pierce, welI-known mag
azlne contributor and published in
