PARAMOUNT THEATRE.
Tom Mix, the .versatile horseman and athlete, has a congenial role in his latest starring vehicle, "The Rainbow Trail," from Zane Grey's famous novel, which was presented in screen form at the Paramount Theatre last evening. As James Shefford, who is searching for his uncle, lost in the- wild Yosemite Valley, Mix is in his element and his daredevil feats and horsemanship have never found better expression. Twelve years before the story opens, Shefford's uncle, Lassiter, was imprisoned in the inaccessible Surprise Valley, together with Jene Wethergreen and a little orphan, Fay Larkin. As he grows to manhood, Shefford learns of the story and determines to rescue the three prisoners. But he finds many enemies who are determined that he should not reach the valley, and in outwitting them he raceU with strange adventures. A tremendous struggle takes place from which Shefford emerges triumphant, just in time to save tho girl from being carried down in an avalanche. There is a satisfactory climax. In support are shown a gazette, an amusing comedy, and an interesting educational film, showing the process of lager-mak-irig in Munich. The Paramount Concert Orchestra renders excellent incidental music.'
