TOWN HALL.

Rex, Icing of wild again demonstrates his ability to outdo many human screen players hi public approval by uncorking n really marvelous performance in Universal’s thrilling production, “The Harvest of Hate,” at the Town Hail next Saturday. There is fascination in watching this almost human horse play his part. As he went about delivering messages, fighting the villain in a

burning cabin, racing over a hilltop, or placidly standing by his mate beneath u tree, the audience breathlessly follows his every move. .Jack Perrin, known through his numerous exploits in many other Western pictures, enacts Ills part of the hero to perfection. Helen Foster, pretty and charming, is an ideal heroine. Her love scenes with Perrin are beautiful in their sentiment. Starlight, a beautiful horse owned by Perrin, plays a prominent supporting role, and Tom London makes a dastardly villain. “The Harvest of Hate,” tells Hie story of a circus rider, forced to sedk. shelter after running away from the attentions of the man who had bought the circus. She finds a place to stay in the cabin of -Jack Merritt who protects her from her pursuers, wins her love, and then marries her. Henry Macllae, the director, hhned many beautiful and dramatic scenes. Other pictures on this programme are “jWatch Papa,” (Comedy), Cartoon and News. Ken Maynard will appear in an unusual and novel story, “The California Mail,” next Wednesday. In this feature the popular star fully lives up to his reputation of being the fastest worker on the screen. i
