MARY PICKFORD Tp-NIGHT.
“Through .the Back Door,” due at the local theatre to-night, reveals Miss Pickford in a charming role. A full house may confidently be expected to greet her in a story full of comedy. HOOT GIBSON ON WEDNESDAY. The limit in thrills is reserved for Saturday night. “Headin’ West,” is the story of a man who came home from the war and found that not all was glory in the returning. Hoot Gibson, champion rider and cowpuncher of the world, enters the tale via parachute, dropping off at a familiar spot on the scenery from an airplane in which he has sponged his way across the continent. Going to the foreman of his own ranch, he asks for a job as a eowpuncher. Getting the laugh when he fails to- ride a broncho that someone had “fixed” with a thorn under the saddle, he is appointed first assistant to the cook. His chief occupation from then on is peeling potatoes. The story has its measure of thrills as well as humorous situations. MONDAY’S BILL.
On Monday David Powell will head the bill in “Appearances,” with the second episode of “Robinson Crusoe” in support.
