LYCEUM TONIGHT. “RiDIN’ THE WIND. ” Pred Thomson with his horse Silver King play the leading roles in this picture, - and all critics have said that its the best picture Fred has ever made. As Jim Harkness, he promises at the grave of his mother to care for his young brother. The story shows how well he carried out his purpose and against what odds. There is real pathos in this picture as well as riotous comedy. The main element of all Fred Thomson’s picture plays is cleanliness, and he has won his fame as a screen actor by delivering clean, wholesome comedies. • Many people do not know that Fred was formerly an ordained clergyman, a Boy Seout Commissioner, a soldier and world’s champion athlete in the 3912 Olympic Games. 563
