RENEE ADOREE
 NOW AT PALACE

A picture as impressive as the vast uncharted snow regions of the north is holding forth at the Pal ace for the last two times tonight
 It is Back to Gods Country" a dynamic tale of the North, from James Oliver Curwood's ever-popu- lar novel of the same name, and has been made into really spec tacular production by Irving Will lat who directed for Universal.
 The story might be likened to the snow country, full of surprises to the explorer travelling its fine sparkling surface. He blows through snowdrifts, rises on knolls from where he can overlook the placid sea of snow, then to the top of a mountain range whence he sees the boundless panorama of Natures mighty creation.
 Renee Adoree is effervescent in her role which is both dramatic and gaily youthful. This characterize tion will win for her many more fans. Robert Frazer is handsome and manly in the male lead and demonstrates his ability as real actor.
 The orchestra plays the first show only tonight.

 COMING TO COLISEUM

Chalk up hitherto undiscovered talent for Jocqueline Logan. During the making of Midnight Madness in which she plays the featured role, it developed that this pull chritudinous DeMille screen artist is an excellent rifle shot!
 One sequence of this picture de- mands that Miss Logan hit a shooting gallery target with aim and precision. Smiling aside he, would-be instructors, Miss Logan brought the rifle to her shoulder pulled the trigger and hit the cen ter of the bulls eye with deadly accuracy.
 The young screen player explain ed that this unusual feminine abil- ity had been cultivated during her childhood days in Colorado, when pioneer settler of the west who lived next door instructed her in the use of firearms.
 Theatre goers of Juneau will have an opportunity to see Miss Logan in Midnight Madness, ? when it comes to the Coliseum to- morrow. Among others in the cast of this picture, which was di- rected by Harmon Weight, are Give Brook, Walter McGrail, Virginia Sale. James Bradbury, Sr., and Louis Natheaux.

which led to a career extending over half a century, and it was the far west which finally claimed him when motion picture roles piled new laurels upon his whitening hair.
 The progress of the theatre from the broad nlelodrama of the west ern dance hall in "The Girl of the Golden Vest" to the subtle char acterizations of the screen, was traced to Keenan's roles.
 Keenan first donned the grease paint as a student at Boston col lege, in an amateur production, and he went quickly from that experi- ence to minor roles in the famous old Boston Museum stock company which schooled him in multiple of parts.
 Actor at 22
 The actor traced his profession from an appearance at Lawrence Mass, in 1880, in support of the veteran Joseph Proctor. He was then but twenty-two. From the Boston stock company he went to New York to play in "The Capitol , "A Poor Relative" and other con- temporary hits.
 He was the dour Cassius in Jul jus Caesar, and he intoned lines of the befuddled Rip Van Wrinkle when that play was the surefire offering of every troupe. He suc- ceeded to major stardom in Hearts Of Oak" "McKennas Filtration. :" "A Texas Steer and "The War rens of Virginia" and for many years thereafter his name topped the snowbills of stage successes.
 Before 1900 he had combined di- recting with his roles and he stag ed the original productions of "The Christian" "The Kings Muske- teers,' Such Little Queen" and a dozen others.
 All of his endeavors took him

to that fertile hinterland known as the road" and in every ham let from Bangor to Council Blyffs his company was an event herald- cd by a personal following such as few players of his day enjoyed.
 When the motion pictures came Keenan adapted his talent to the glare of the Kleig lights. He liked motion picture work, and profited by the large income it brought him, and he established his resi- dence in Hollywood, spending sev- eral months there each year.
 He never loved the movies. how ever, as he loved the footlights and no motion picture contract kept him from returning at inter- vals to the stage. Long after his hair was grayed and his 1.-the fig ure stopped by three score years, he continued to devote much of his time to the legitimate drama, and he celebrated his sixty eighth birthday playing an heroic south ern colonel's role in Black Velvet. Y far cry from the swashbucklins bravado of his roles of the nine- ties.
 Born April 8, 1858, in Dubuque, Iowa, to Owen and Francis Kelly Keenan, substantial pioneers of the river town, he was drawn to the stage as though born to the actors mantle, and all his life was linked with it.
 His own romance was found in the wings of the old Boston thea ter, where he wooed Katherine Az nes Long of St. Johns, N. B. Mrs Keenan played in companies with her husband, often opposite him They were the parents of two daughters, Frances and Hilda The latter became the wife of Ed Wynn stage comedian. After his first wife died, Keenan married Mar garet White.
 Keenan was prominent in the councils of the Knights of Colum- bus, and was a leader in the Ac- tors Equity association.
