uiri, ttebe Daniels latest pic
ture, which is the chief cinema at
traction at the Sun theater this week.
She craved speed, and she got it. .
This swiftly moving comedy
drama, written especially for Miss
Daniels' use, is a gentle satire on the
modern mania for speed, and amus
ingly shows how modern young
people develop a craze for swift
locomotion.
As. the daring little girl who
always drove her kiddie car and
scooter, her bicycle, her pony and
finally, when she grew older, her
motor car and her aeroplane, a little
faster than anybody else dared to,
Miss Daniels has a role admirably
suited to her type and temperament,
and one in which she declared her
self absolutely at home.
With the same author writing for
her and supervising, as well as the
same director and technical staff
which made, "Two Weeks With
Pay," "Oh Lady, Lady," "She
Couldn't Help it," "Ducks and
Drakes," and "One Wild Week,"
such sensational screen successes, this
play is bound to prove good enter
tainment. ,

the Northwoods will show the first
four days of this week at the Moon
theater.
The picture, while as full as usual
of the Curwood North wobds color
and drama, has a theme different
from most of his stories in the past.
It is a dramatic tale of a man hound
ed by a guilty conscience and
driven to destruction by the great
fear.
A drama of romance and adven
ture with Sessue Hayakawa at the
pinnacle of his art, "Where Lights
Are Low" will be shown at the Moon

of Robert Louis Stevenson, "Where
Lights Are Low" is rich in color and

the great fire laid waste that pic

do with the adventures of a young
Chinese prince. '
