STATE THEATRE
"texas rangers" to-day. J?he early Post-Eeconstruction Sonthwest, with its ever-present Indian dangers and its roaming outlaws, lives ngain on the screen of the State Theatre to-day, where King Vidor'a epic Paramount pieture, "The Texas Eangers," screens. A story as dramatie and thrill-filled as its backgronnd is sweeping, ''The Texas Eangers" outlines the work of the band of fearlesa men who brought order to the Lone Star State. Ered MacMurray and Jack Oakie, cast in leading roles, appear as outlaws who join the Eangers, t'aking part in the daily work of darlng undertaken by America 's firsfc organisation of State peace officers. The Rangers took' oath, on enlisting, to suhdne Indianis, kill or capture mnrderers, break np gangs of brigands and cattle thieves, and "mahe Texas a reasonably safe place in which to live." The two characters, in the course of the plot, have a leading part in the iinal great battle of the Eangers with hostile Indiansj • which led to snbduing of the marauding tribes.
