THE PICTURE HOUSES

COBY DE LUXE. Particular interest attaches to the showing of “Arizona Bound ” which open to-night at the Cosy Theatre, since it introduces to the screen a new star in the person of Gary Cooler. Cooper, a lanky, six-foot-two product of a Montana ranch, bids fait to reach the heights as one of the most popular of Western stars, in the opinion of Paramount officials, and is described as a handsome young actor who can act—a most promising player who gives every indication of becoming one of the real personal! ties of the screen. “Arizon Bound” also introduces a new equine star, which bids fair to accompany its owner tn th 0 heights of popularity. “Flash” is a magnificent, cream-coloured Arabian, and is said to be the most beautiful steed yet used in motion pictures. The animal is highly trained, and h e and Cooper his owner, are shown throughout the picture as boon companions. Thu supporting picture is “Desert Vai ley,” Buck Jones being the star. MUNICIPAL. Almost every sort of wheeled conveyance, from freight cars to flivvers, furnish Hoot Gibson with the means of transportation in his latest and funniest comedy-thriller “Hey! Heyl Cowboy,” a Universal-Jewel to bo shown here to-night. Of course, Gibson also uses hi* more familiar and acoustomed means of getting over the ground, in she saddle of his trusty horse, but you will also see him “riding the rods ” and hugging the wheel of a careening Ford in hot pursuit of the villain who steals the girl, bumping skidding and slewing over the rocky plains of a Western ranch. The story is laid In a strange Western locale an odd mixture of the West that was and the West that it. Into the heart of a flaming foud between neighbouring cattle barons, Hoot Gibson is propelled via the boot end of an unsym pathetic brakeman. From that point on this versatile screen artist is given ample opportunity to exhibit his familiarity with a Fordesqne bucking bronc, as well as the legitimate four-legged eayuse. Accompanying Gibson in the cast of the picture are Kathleen Key, “Slim” Summerville, Clarke Comstock, Wheeler Oakman, Monte Montague,' Nick Cogley, Jim Corey and Milla 'Davenport. Chapter 6 of “The Silent Flier” and many minor supports will also be shown.
