NORMA TALMADCE
RIVAL TO SHEIK

Norma Talmadge has stolen a
march on the makers of sheik pho
toplays by introducing the Ouled
Nail dancing girl to Hollywood.
And those who have seen the
fiery scenes between Joseph Schild-
kraut, in his Arabia nrole, and Nor
ma Talmadge, as the Ouled Nailed
dancing girl, predict that the sheik
will go down to ignominous oblivion
when both feminine and masculine
theatre patrons see Norma in the
sensuous dance of the mysterious
orient in THE Song of Love-" her
very latest picture which comes TO
the Rylander soon.
When Norma made her first APP
pearance as an Ouled Nail dancer
at the United Studios, there was
such demand to see her in her
dancing costume that the director,
Chester Franklin, was forced to
put up three sets of excluding
flats to keep out visiting actors

.BLACk OXEN" IS NOVEL At RYLANDER THEATRE
BLACK OXEN" STARTLING REVELATION
OF SECRET OF YOUTH AND BEAUTY
Gertrude Atherton's Novel With
Corinne Griffith and Conway
TearIe Here Monday

1t has been said that there is
nothing new under the sun and
much of the criticism of motion
pictures has been due to the great
similarity in most photoplays which
have been offered. However, in
the case of Frank Lloyd's produc-
ton of Black Oxen" by Gertrude
Anterior, which is the special at
traction at the Rylander on Monday
and Tuesday, it is said that one
motion picture at least can have d
decidedly original background and
a climax which is unique and salts
flying.
Black Oxen" deals with rejuven-
alton, a subject little touched upon
heretofore, but one that merits con-
siderable thought and consideration,
and, from the first title to the final
fade-out there is compelling some
thing behind all of the action, the
odd romance and the flapperism of
the dynamic Janet, that compels
ones interest and enthusiastic adj
miration.
Corinne Griffith, more beautiful
than ever, plays the dual character
of Madame Zatianny, a woman of
SO who appears 80, and of Mary
Ogden, who in her younger years
was the most charming member of
New York's. social set. The flashes
of Miss Griffith as an old woman,
which recall the period just prior to
her rejuvenation, prove delightful
contrast for the regal beauty that
is heirs in the other scenes and. her
make-uP is a remarkable achieve
ment.
Conway Tearle, as the cynical
newspaper columnist who falls in
love with Zatianny but is deprived
of the right to marry her when she
decides that she is too old to marry
him, gives a splendid performance.
Clara Bow, a newcomer to the
screen, plays the part of Janet
Oglethorpe, a flippant flapper,

Mrs. Mingle lived in a very prett, little cottage in the deep, deep woods and as Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy and the magical hobby horse stayed with Mrs. Mingle all night you may imagine they all slept very comfortable.
 The cunning little cottage had been made for Mrs. Mingle by Princess Honeydew the Fairy, and Fairies as you surely know, think of everything nice when they make presents to any one who is kind and good. So, in this cunning little cottage, the Fairy Prin- cess had made the finest fluffiest little white beds, magic cupboards always filled with foods everyone likes to eat, such as little pies, cakes, chocolate candies, ice cream and everything. C
 And, as the cubboards were very magical, Mrs. Mingle only had to wish for any kind of goodies when she turned the knob of the cupboard doors and reach inside and get it, for whatever she wished for was sure to be there.
 So, when Mrs. Minge and the Rag gedys and the magical hobby horse heard Mrs. Minge singing in the early morning, they hoped out of their little white fluffy beds and ran to the bathroom and washed all the sleep from their eyes,
 You'd better be getting up and ready for breakfast" Mrs. Mingle laughed us she gave the Raggedys a hug and patted the hobby horses wooden head. Everything is on the table ready to eat!"
 Then if that's the case, shall just come right in and help myself!" gruff voice cried and into the cum ming little house walked a strange creature.
 I'm zumzee and I'm hungry as everything and these pancakes and maple syrup and cream puffs and mince pie and fried potatoes and ice cream cones and everything else is just what I want!"
 But I did not invite you in to eat breakfast with us!" Mrs. Mingle said. "Whys didn't you knock upon the door and ask politely for some break fast, Zumzee?"
 "Because!" the Zumzee said as he sat down at the table and began eat ing.
 Dear me-" Mrs. Mingle exclaimed. That isn't any reason at all and we think you are very, very impolite."
 The zumzse paid no attention 10 Mrs. Mingle at all, but just went on eating. HRargedy Ann called Mrs. Minsle 10 i ,ne side and whispered to her while | Rsggedy Andy rolled up his sleeves i'd said to the Zumzse, "Mr. Zumzee, Mrs MingIe did not invite you here. 70 you must run outside again.
