AUGUST 4. ’1925 Snappy 1 Programs Arranged for Rylander Next Week tOOD COMmMI, THRILLS«APPEAL 1 Bebe Daniels and Aptonio More no in “The Exciters” Thurs day and Friday Bebe Daniels, who is known as “the speed girl of the movies,” be cause of the speed roles she has played in pictures, has ample op portunity to gratify her craving for fast movement in her latest Paramount picture “The Exciters” which is to be shown at the Rylan der Theatre next Thursday and Friday. Irr the picture Miss Dan iels, as Ronnie Rand, chief of the “exciters,” - has the shrilling ex perience of riding in an aquaplane, participating jn la motor boat race, riding in an aeroplane, and ’ dashing madly about the Florida turnpikes in a speeding roadster. “There are hiore speed stunts in this picture than in a half dozen of my former pictures,” explain ed Miss Daniels. “When 1 got through whizzing through the air for scenes in the photoplay I was ready to sit still the rest of my life. I don’t think I will ever want to see a speed boat or an aeroplane again for the rest of my life.” Antonio Moreno, recently seen in support of Gloria Swanson in “My American Wife,” is co-star red with Miss Daniels in “The Ex citers.” Ee has the role of a young man of wealth who, to enjoy the thrills that accompany danger, joins the United Statefe. Intelli gence Service and later identifies himself as a safe-cracker, with a band of crooks in order to obtain evidence of crime. Believing him to be a real burglar, Ronnie, as Miss Daniels, true to her reputa tion as an exciter, marries him. Many interesting developments follow, and the climax is novel and dramatic. Another interesting feature of “The Exciters” is the fact that all of the exterior ■scenes of the pic ture were filmed in Florida. On the program with this fea ture will also be shown the latest Aesop’s Fables (Release. t - it It's Cool. Many patrons attending the Ry- • lander recently have remarked up on its pleasantness especially dur ing the evening.

Ince's Latest Production at 1 the Rylander “The Sunshine Trail,” Thomas j K. Ince’s latest comedy-drama,. staging Douglas McLean and sea- ] turing little Muriel Frances Dana, I Jackie Coogan’s feminine rival, is to be shown at the Rylander Theatne next Saturday. “The Sunshine Trail” has a “twist” all its own. _ It is “dif ferent.” It is unique. This novel ty comedy-drama combines snappy: farce, rapid-moving action, hair- | raising thrills, great gobs of fun ! for tbe kiddies, mother appeal I sensations for the men folks, bur lesque melodrama and a sunshine theme. Its’ the story of a cowboy who comes bad; from his ramch, scattering sunshine and helping everyone he can along his way, despite the fact that those whom he aids return evil for good by dragging him through dangers and deviltry, and lambasting him at every turn. It’s the sort of pic ture which keeps the audience itch ing to help out the hero and burst ing with laughter at the same time at His troublous adventures. T’ne hero, by the. way, is Doug las Mac Lean who enacts the role of a dough-boy cowboy who re- Program 1 or 1 he Week Monday and Tuesday—“ Slander the Wvman,” with Dorothy Phillips j “Week End Party,” | comedy.

Our hero expects to be made a hero when he retunrs home and he also complacently expects that his sweetheart will be waiting patient ly on the front steps to marry him. But he is disappointed. Wow! what a time the home folks give him! The making of the auto-motor cycle chase was a stiff bit of work. One auto was completely smashed to smithereens making a plunge into a ditch, and an actor suffers' a broken shoulder' blade. Douglps Mac Lean is said to put pep galore into these scenes, and the bank holdup is also jammed with drama tic thrills. The. thrills, however, are always secondary to the com edy—and the alughs in “The Sin shine Trail” begin right from the ” THE AMERICUS TIMES-RECORDER UJWMLDIH 'THE LEOPARDESS Alice Brady as Dazzling South Sea Dancer in New Photoplay Alice Brady is a South Sea Is land girl in her latest Paramount picture, “The Leopardess,” com ing to the Rylander Theatre next Wednesday. As Tiare, a half caste, this popular actress is said to capably'display her ability for felw WYs |rf ' emotional acting. The novelty of the production comc*,s when this outwardly untamable South Sea maid is taken to civilization and presented in New York society. In addition to Miss Brady the cast includes Edward Langford, Montagu Love, Charles Kent and Marguerite Forrest. In the story, Montague Love as the villain, forces the South Sea Island belle to marry him, his pur pose being to tame' her as he be lieves he has tamed a leopardess he has captured—with the lash, if necessary. lie works upon the hall' caste girl’s superstitious fears, until one day she realizes the spell is broken. Then she rebels, and the angry husband seeks to intimi date her with the aid of the leop ardess. The animal, however, vengefully turn- upon her master, and in the struggle the man is ‘ killed. Oh the program with “The Leop ardess” will be shown a Christie comedy “Plumb Crazy.” BIG ONES COMING For the next six weeks the Ry lander has secured an unusual number of big picture attractions, selecting the very best -of all the pictures released during the past few months.

In addition to this feature the Rylander’s program for Saturday will include the fifth chapter of ‘“The. Oregon Trail”, and a novelty comedy entitled “Peg O' the Movies,” MOEHTHEMIIi IS POWERFUL DPMI Scenes Laid in Sncw_Covered Distances of ‘‘The White Frontier” “Slander the Woman” the pic ture attraction at the Rylander Theatre on Monday and Tuesday, is a powerful and human drama of a woman’s fight to erase the blot that others placed on her good name. With its scenes shifting from a court of justice to the snow cov ered distances of “The White Frontier” of Northern Canda, where a beautiful young woman with a good name, blackened by scandal, first goes to escape, then to fight for her reputation, “Slan der the Woman” sweeps with great dramatic intensity. Almost from the first scene the spectator finds himself caught in the maelstorm of emotions that engulf the players in the drama and is carried along to its power-: ful ;nd unexpected climax. The story of a beautiful girl who innocently becomes involved in j a scandal and when she leaves the: courtroom the good name and hon-1 or that she has treasured has beqn I taken from her. An ambitious judge eager for publicity, has made , her a sacrifh-' on the altar of his fame—but not before she turns and in terror, despair and hatred of the 1 injustice of the thing, denounces him and promises a just punish ment for his actions. Then she runs away to the far north coun try where people go—to forget— and be forgotten. Against this picturesque back ground the drama continues, stir ring emotional, powerful. With a woman’s vengeance and a wo man’s love struggling for suprem acy, Dorothy Phillips, the star, rises to dramatic heights in this play tl t Allen Holubar has di-1 rected within his usual skill. The | remainder of the cast includes Geor ■ Seigman, Rosemary Theby and Cyril Chadwick. Many of the scenes of "Sb'n der the Woman” were filmed 111, the Far North, presenting a most picturesque background, and one most appealing for these hot sum mer days. In addition to “Slander the Wo man” the Rylander’s program for these two days will include “The Week, End,” a Stan Laurel com edy. — I i '^^F r^^ n ‘' zx3^a F <p *e ~'~—“~i -•inminwill—iimmi——■liwwaiai——ii—w—■■■■■iiitwwii—wwmwwi—nrrnwrirrnrrmwiTTMmb.■Hrarn'iwm wurwim—■ A Drama of Snow—Swept Places, Storm- Swept Hearts 1 i I A woman’s reputation IHI iik I'iHwkfe. i s like u house °f jlml LILU:-i ll if ilk. — an d scandal is the 11 heilstorm that shalters IW® ■ WKI Jp®l W -®- JflwOia f Wk " v< o iiw '< Uji- L / M F' tp SA t f wM \ zJ 7 ATiat national I W' 1 Y JJ Judgement n A ci; na staged against the picturesque > / "The Man / vJS''""' I®l\ \ backg ound of the far North coun- kfe IJ* - Wk\ tr y—here people go to forget—and at ifroken I (ffW I to be ionrotten.
