ARCADIA PICTURES.
TO NIGHT—LAST. TJItEc. . ‘(RIDERS OF. THE PURPLE® SAGE.” STARRING TOM MIX. In this virile drama of pioneer days, Jim Lassiter swept through the countryside, of the early settlement and made his name a terror to right, a great wrong. The closing scene ioi this throbbing drama ot the great Western desert is staged in the mountains in a spot of great natural grandeur. To save a girl and, himself from a force of pursuing rustlers, a huge rock is dropped down a sheer cliff, crushing. to death many of the horsemen. Tom- Mix, Zane Grey and William Bta mean a, pitaure that is worth; while. FRIDAY and. SATURDAY. ALMA RUBENS IN—i “IS LOVE EVERYTHING?” ! In “Is Love Everything!” the new Master Picture which will be the attraction at the Arcadia Theatre on Friday and Saturday, Alma Rubens has the role of a young matron, two years married to an indulgent and devoted husband, who, having once made her choice between two men, is again called upon to choose between them. This unique situation, which forms the dramatic crux of the story, calls for a highly intelligent interpretation of a woman’s secret emotions and gives MiSs Rubens perhaps her most effective part. As the beautiful cultured, and sensitive girl, reared among luxury suppressing her ele mental feelings and only in a great crisis in her life, throwing aside the robes of conventionality, it is doubtful if any other actress on the screen is better equipped to interpret the • difficult role. Her dark beauty, gentle manner? poise and intelligence are said to admirably fit her for the part. The story, opens with scenes on a luxuri cus estate in the East, takes its plot, to sea on a palatial yacht and casts-its principal characters aboard a whisky ship in mid Atlantic, where they find themselves refugees* after the wreck of the yacht. Frank Mayo, H. B. Warner, Walter McGrail and Lilyan Tashman are seen in the supporting cast.
