ELTINCE THEATRE

Innumerable pictures have been de.
voted to the heroes of the epic Cali
fornia gold rush Of 40. It remained
for vingie e. Roe and Frank Lloyd
to give the heroine of this great
epoch her due.
"The Splendid Road" featuring
Anna @. Nilsson, Lionel barrymore
and Robert Frazer, which is being
shown at the Eltinge today and Sat
urday, is the screen complement to
Americas pioneer womanhood.
In her novel, '"The Splendid Road
upon which the film is based, Miss
Roe deals with the struggles, the
handicaps and romance of Sandra De-
Hault, who came to California from
Boston to play mans game in a
mans way.
California in 40 was hot bed of
crime and disorder, the lust for gold
and land being superior to conven.
tions, system OF life itself. The law
was what men made it.
Seldom has the screen offered such
an inspiring character as Sandra.
Miss Nilsson is said to give her best
screen portrayal in the Installation
Of the pioneer woman.
Robert Frazer is seen opposite Miss
Nilsson as Stanton Halliday, budding
lawyer and power in the new gold
country end, Lionel Barrymore, as
Dan Clehollis, is the third member
OF the featured triumvirate.
