ENTERTAINMENTS

GRAND • THEATRE—TO-NIGHT. “MAN’S MATE.” If you can’t go to Paris the nearest you can approach it is to go, to the Grand Theatre, where “A Man’s Mate” will be shown, to-night. The Fox star, John Gilbert, gives a pleasing screen performance in a picture that holds the attention of the audience throughout. He is ably supported by Renee Adoree. Gilbert has the part of an artist who meets an Apache girl in a Paris drinking place. Circumstances take them to a quiet farmhouse in the peaceful countryside. With the girl as a model the artist does a canvas that is later liailed'as a'masterpiece. Then love sweeps these two rapturously along. There is a rift in the lute, however. But to tell all the story here would detract from its romantic thrills when you view it on the screen. If you like red-blooded love stories, teeming with action' “A Man’s Mate” will give you a.satisfactory evening’s entertainment. The supports include Clyde Cook in “The Orphan,” and the Fox Worlds -News.
