KEN MAYNARD IS LAST
 TIMES TONIGHT, PALACE

The Canyon of Adventure" Ken Maynard's latest Western feature produced by Charles R. Rogers for First National Pictures, opened at the Palace last night, is showing again tonight.
 'The Canyon of Adventure" tells of the early days of California when the Spanish dons and grandacs ruled with an iron hand. It tells of their huge land grants, given them by the King of Spain, and the efforts of the hated gringo land grabbers to secure this land, just before entry into the Union. Maynard has typical role in that of whimsical and fast moving U. s. land agent who is endeavoring to save these lands for their own CTS by registering them with the government land office before the final day set.
