VIOLA DANA, WEDNESDAY . Viola Dana, one of the greatest emotional actresses on. the screen, ■will be seen on Wednesday in her first appearance under the Metro banner, "The Flower of No-Man's Land." Miss Dana as "The Flower in No Man's Land" has every opportunity to display her talent for the fates play strange , pranks i with *he confiding, simple child of the mining, camp, but the little star's power to show the humourous side of life is just as great. Kahoma, an Indian, finds in the chart of the desert, baby EcEbv lying by the side of her murdered father. He brings her up tenderly and she becomes the one bright spot in the lives of the rough men of the mining camp. Roy. Talbot, a famous tenor, loses his voice whilst singing in an opera, and goes west to recuperate. How he wins the simple heart of Echo, to the deep sorrow of Big Bill who loves her; how he shows his despicable nature, and how his very villainy is the means of winning back freedom and happiness to the little * "Flower of No Man's Land," is excellently portrayed. The love arrow, that is the gift of old Kahoma ;bririfiV sorrow at .first, but tears .. are changed to Rejoicing. There is a simplictiy, -and a directness about this fine production that wfll carry its message straight to the heart of- every person who sees it 'In suoport of the Metro mrocTucHon William Fox presents William Farnum in a. photoplay, supreme "The Gilded Fool," and a further instalment pf the educational Metro \rkv-. elogue.
