MAORILAND THEATRE.
"FORTY WINKS"—A COMEDY DRAMA. "Forty Winks" is listed for screening at the Maoriland Theatre on Saturday night with matinee on Saturday. " The story is a melodramatic comedy and concerns- the adventures of an Englishman. who is so funny that nolbody takes him seriously. Some of the picture's biggest' laughs and | some if its greatest thrills are .com-. ■ tained in water scenes where some great incideiiits are viewed in a speed boat. Theodore Roberts, the lead of "Grumpy," Raymond Griffiths, the world's latest comedian, and Viola. ! Dana play the principal parts in this I humorous comedy. '"THE BURNING; TRAIL," Cattle ranchers detest sheepmen. Sheepmen think all cattle fanciers should be banished. That's one thing that causes excitement on western ranges, and it also caused a photoplay of intense interest. That the real *bad man isn't always the man who looks and talks the roughest is demonstrated in "The Burning" Trail," the Blue Sitreak Western, starring William Desmond, to be screened on Monday at the Moarilancl theatre. In it, Desmond plays a wandering tramp, regarded as a coward by the "bad man." How he eventually causes their downfall hy frustrating all their plans makes an interesting photoplay.
