I A DELGHTFUL OUT-OF-DOOR PICTURE
Ralph Connor’s Stirring Story With
Gaston Glass, Vivienne Osborne- Irving Cummings
“CAMERON OF THE
wEisrsßKaE 1 ninn w
ROYAL MOUNTED”
} here are strange things that happen in that land of perpetual snows pnd
cold where the Nabob, the Prince and the Beggar meet on common giound,
where one man’s life is as good as another, where the lawless stalk their prey
and ti e Scarlet Riders stalk the lawless.
But it’s not always a land of death and pain. Love and romance demand
their toll of the lives that come within the great borders, and there's happiness
and sunshine to spare—enough to dim the tragedies that make this story the
most startling and realistic tale of the Northwest ever written.
