STATE THEATRE
One of the better-than-average class of well-produced Westerns. “Prairie Law" is the main feature on a particularly attractive double-feature programme presented at. the State Theatre this week. The efforts of a crooked politician to sell worthless prairie land to settlers and nt the same time to oust the ranchers who control it by using the law to reclaim their water springs from them, rivet attention throughout. The virile George O'Brien is ideally cast aS the rancher who seeks to expose the treacherous land shark. The complications that ensue in “Fop Always Pays.” ilic other feature, when a girl’s father tries to raise 1000 dollars as part of her marriage contract, are as uproarious as they are engrossing;.
