TOWN HALL. Rex, kitty of wild horses, again demonstrates liis ability to outdo many liunian screen players in public approval by uncorking a really marvelous performance in Universal's thrilling production, “The Harvest of Hate,” at the Town Hall to-night. There is fascination in watching this almost human liorse play his part. As he went about delivering messages, lighting the villain in a burning cabin, racing over a hilltop, or placidly standing by his male beneath a tree, the audience breathlessly follows his every move. ..lack Perrin, known through his numerous exploits in many oilier Western pictures, enacts his part of the hero to perfection. Helen Foster, pretty and charming, is an ideal heroine. Tier 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 the story of a circus rider, forced to seclk shelter after running away from the attentions of l lie man who had bought the circus. She iinds a place to stay in the. cabin of Jack Merritt who protects her from her pursuers, wins tier love, and then marries her. Henry JVlaeUae, the director, filmed many beautiful and dramatic scelies. Other pictures on this programme are “Watch Papa,” (Oomedy), 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.
