WEBSTER'S ROMANCE
DADDY LONG LEGS"
HAS GAYNOR, BAXTER

A real cinematic gem is Daddy
Long Legs" Fox romance based on
the famous Jean Webster play with
Janet Gaynor and Warner Baxter
co-starred will open at the Roman
theater this Sunday.
This reviewer heartily app1auds
the sentiment Of the unknown spec
tator who leaves the theater mur-
muring to her companion: "Now,
that's what call real picture,
Bessie; why don't they give us
more like that?"
Daddy Long Legs is ideal en-
tertainment. A great human story,
a genuinely outstanding cast head
ed by two of the most popular
players on the screen, and the other
attributes of flawless direction and
splendid settings serve to make the
picture real event in local screen
circles.
The choice of Janet Gaynor and
Warner Baxter for the leading
roles is particularly happy one.
Judy Abbott" in her progress
from gingham and pigtails to chif-
fon and permanents is an absolute
ly ideal part for the wistful charm
of Janet Gaynor. Had Jean Web
ster written the play especially for
her, it could not have been better
suited to Miss Gaynor's talents.
Baxter likewise is a perfect choice
for the suave, cynical but lonely
bachelor who is greatly surprised
to find himself falling in love with
his ward, and his handling of the
part is a personal triumph.
Una Merkel scores another hit as
Miss Gaynor's delightfully."- erratic
roommate and young John Ar
ledge, new film find, turns in a
highly promising portrayal of Bax-
ter's rival. Claude Gillingwater,
Sr., Kathlyn williams, Louise Clos
ser Hale, Elizabeth Patterson,
Sheila Mannors and Effie Ellsler
have the other chief roles, and ham
die them beautifully. Alfred San
tells direction is smooth and eff
fective throughout; in fact, there
is little in the way of criticism that
can be adduced.

ROAD MACHINES
Continued from page y

were able to gain a good impress
sion of the work from below, while
some of the harder ones climbed
on foot to the third level, where
the pioneer shovel was working.
As the other two shovels con-
tinued to trim up the rough spots
of the grade, aided by caterpillar
bulldozers, a culvert was being in
stalled beneath the grade at Quad
creek. Concrete workers were set
ting in the conduit, with 150-foot
apron to carry the creek water
down the mountainside in such a
way as to prevent its washing out
any part of the grade.
Visitors and workers Sunday wit
messed an interesting accident
during the course of the work when
one of the trucks, working with
the power shovels, rolled off the
grade. Backing to the edge of the
grade to dump a load of rock, the
truck was over-balaneed as the
shoulder of the road erumbled be-
meath the rear wheels. The driv-
er stepped out of the cab just be-
fore the big machine went over
the edge, to roll about 500 feet
down the steep mountainside.
Among the things noticed by Mr..
Knudsen in his survey of the prof.
ect were the modern fixtures that
have been installed at the road
camp-the village that has come
to be known as "Cooke City" to
Red Lodge people.
A 5,000-watt Kohler electric
light plant is furnishing the cur
rent for light and power at the
camp. The buildings there have
been wired for electric lights, and
street lamps" have been strung
about the grounds.
The water system, taking noun
ain water from a subterranean
source, where the gravel and sand
'orm a natural filter, furnishes
,ure water to the camp-every
anitary precaution being observed.
Mr.. Knudsen remarked that the
at Quad creek was
moving as fast as he had expect
d, and also commented on the
.randeur of the mountain country
here.
