MAORILAND THEATRE.

"THE MAN WHO CAME BACK." The William A. Brady stage success from the novel "The Man Who Came Back'' comes to the screen under the banner of William Fox as one of the new special productions of unusual pos- -' sibilities. George O'Brien and Dorothy Mackaill have the leading roles in the picture which comes to Shannon Theatre on Saturday. It will be recalled that the story - narrates the tragedy of a wealthy . young New Yorker who goes In; pace that kills, winding up as a beach comber in the Orient Drugs and liquor have robbed him of his manhood. His fall - offers a wealth of dramatic possibilities. His rise, due to the. influence of * a good woman, is equally as spectacular, so that the picture, promises to contain more than the usual mixture of romance and action.. "SKY HIGH CORRAL." A man, a horse and a dog are the three aTJtors who make Art Acord's latest entertainment. The picture, "Sky High Corral," a Universal-Blue Streak Western, will be screened at thf- Maoriland Theatre on Monday. Aiding Art Acord in his fast moving Western thriller are his two pals, his horse, Raven, ar.d his dog, - Rex. Inseparable companions, Acord first used his horse in his pictures whenever hard riding was called for. Hours •were spent training the sturdy, fiery" heast until Raven was a-fully qualified screen actor.

Rex, the dog, is a typical cow-punch-er's dog with an unusually large quantity of horse sense and a big bag of tricks which makes him as valuable an animal actor as the horse.
