The story tells how Worth, in order to secure additional capital for irrigation schemes, enlists the co-operation of a grasping eastern capitalist, James Greenheld, who only sees the desert as a place in which to make money. Greenfield's desperate measures to ruin Worth and the latter s rescue at the hands of. the two jnanlyyoung engineers, Abe Lee and Willard Holmes, both of whom are in love with beautiful Barbara Worth, make a story of absorbing interest. The supporting films include "Madame Dynamite," a comedy, and a gazette. Mr: Emanuel Aarons, on the' Wurlitzer organ, pjays a Scotch medley and "Roses of Picardyl" Ihe orchestral items and a cornet solo by Mr. E. Elliott are proving popular.
