GREAT PICTURE MADE ON EXACT STORY SETTINGS “The Mine With the Iron Door” Where Author Wrote Famous Novel. “A great picture made under gVeat difficulties,” was the comment of Sol Lesser, president of Principal Pictures Corporation after the completion of production work on his film version of “The Mine With the Iron Door,” Harold Bell Wright’s newest and. greatest novel, and which is announced as the feature picture for next Sun day and Monday at the Royal Thea tre in O’Neill. For Mr. Wright, when he wrote his story, travelled into the Can ada del Oro (Canyon of Gold) in the Catalina mountains in Arizona, near Tuscon, by horseback and over rough country which di<J not then boast even a trail. And Mr. Lesser, in order to transfer to the screen this story just as it had been written, ar ranged to photograph the pictures in exactly the same location and repro duce many of the exact scenes. When all plans had been completed, John Jasper, production manager of Principal Pictures, was sent into the location site by Mr. Lesser to pave the way for the arrival of the com pany of players and technicians. When Mr. Lesser and the company arrived they found a newly built road across the desert, along a river bottom and in many instances through fissures of rock that had been blasted away to permit the passage of automobiles and trucks, by which the players and others were transported daily be tween the location site and their camping place on the Triangle “L” ranch miles distant. Here were photographed the scenes of the old mining prospectors and their shack; of the dinky little mine, and the struggling little creek where they .panned for gold; of Saint Jimmy, the young physician broken in health who with his mother brought cheer to the inhabitants of the Can ada del Oro; and of other important sequences in the picture. When this location had served its purpose the compay left for another site twenty-five miles further into the wilderness, and atop a high mountain where the author had pictured the cabin of Nachatee, the Indian—whose doorstep was a huge boulder on the edge of a great cliff, from which there was a view of the country for miles an all sides. Lumber and the “fit tings for this Indian cabin were ‘snaked up the steep and rocky hill side, for there were no roads or trains leading into that wilderness. The chase across the country where the hero and the Indian trailed the bandit captors of the heroine of this highly dramatic and most human of tales was filmed in the various sec tions of the country between Tuscon and the Mexican border covered by the author when he fashioned his novel.

Dated at Norfolk, Nebraska, July WHY MILK REMAINS SWEET I have just installed a new Reid Milk Cooler and Areator. The milk passes over the coils and cold water passes through them. The milk is cooled from 98 degrees to 55 degrees as fast as it is milked.. The milk looses all the animal heat before being bottled and. will remain, sweet, much longer. Due to the rapid increase in business since installing the cooler I believe it is a great help to my customers. I have also built a large cooler holding 1200 pounds of ice for storing our butter and other dairy products. This insures you receiving them in the best of shape. All the leading dealers in town handle our butter! When buy ing, ask them for it. SANITARY DAIRY PHONE 84. F. W. LANCASTER, Owner. . a >rse Sale!
