a Sunshine comedy as an added at

A tale of dramatic daring and in
tense appeal is “The Man Who
Stayed at Home.” It ran for over
four years in London as a play and
for two years in New York. Briefly,
it is the thrilling story of a young
secret service agent who has to suf

‘The Girl From Outside’,
Rex Beach Film, at Forsyth
Alaska is a country which offers a:
never-ending source of fertility to the
imagination of Rex Beach. “The Girl
from Outside,” which will be the at
traction at the Forsyth this week
along with a new Charlie comedy, is
his latest picture; and far from over
lapping his previous northern themes
the new story is original and appeals
to the mind and eye from beginning
to end.
It is a picture with a background of
Alaskan scenes, against which a story
is developed in accordance with the
lJaws of truth and with the peculiar
vital “punch” which Rex Beach has
injected into the motion picture. It
is a production which is sure to meet
with tremendous favor among the
Forsyth patrons.
“The (irl from Outside” is a young
woman (played exquisitely by Clara
Hoton) who arrives friendless in the
primitive town of Nome as the re

on her way north with her father.
She has no sooner landed in the town

that he has been selected for a serv
ice as dangerous as anything on the
battlefields—that he must unearth
and capture a clique of German spies
who have contrived to gain valuable
information that they are conveying
to Berlin,
How the young secret service man
discovers these intriguers and by
strategy and courage foils their plots
makes a play of thrilling and absorb
ing interest.
The winsome romance which
threads the dramatic story reaches a
happy climax when the girl decides
that the greatest hero of all is the
man who stayed a& home.
“The Man Who Stayed at Home” is
offered with an all-star cast headed
by King Baggott and Claire Whitney.
It is adapted from the famous stage
rlay by Lechmere Worrall and E. J.
Harold,
> “The Curly Kid” is the young leader
of five scalawags, each one of whom
he rallies to the defense of June (“The
Gir]l from Outside”) and all of whom
ultimately fall in love with her and
become her devoted slaves. She re
sponds to none of them, however, ex
vept to value their friendships. She
is unaware that “The Curly Kid” is
at times a robber; and when he af
fers to lend her the money to start a
hotel she accepts it. She thus be
comes associated with Harry Hope
(Hallman Cooley), .a capitalist, with
whom she falls in love. He recipro
cates her affection.
But their, romance is sadly im
peded by the fact that Denton, the
gambler, holds an option to his val
uable claim. In order to “cinch” his
hold on the property the bad man
forges an extension to the agreement
which validates the option perma

of paper—and the outcome of the
mixup is that “The Curly Kid” sacri

the document but Denton “gets him.”
However, his death is not unavenged.

scalawags, who is devoted to the kid,

where the gambler is confined. When
he comes out no jury trial is neces

It opens the Vaudette program

The secret marriage of a society
beauty who repented of her hasty
action immediately after the cere
mony forms a basis for the story
as picturized from Robert W.
Chambers’ best novel. A spirit
ualistic warning—a man who laid
down his life that his friend and
the girl he loved might be happy—
these are the sort of dramatic sit
uations which make the picture
unique in cinema craft.
Throughout you will see Mrs.
Castle in the active type of work
in which she is greatest—as swim
mer, horeswoman, dancer. Despite
the title, it is not a war story, al
though equally exciting.

Here is Rex Beach at his best! The Rex Beach who

hungry men. Fate decrees that five fighting erooks shall
be her guardians, How these lawless comrades crush the
sneaks of the night and give vent to the soul within them,

known,

Two big attractions have been.
booked for the Tudor this week. The
first is Mrs. Charlie Chaplin in a big
feature photoplay called “Home.” The
second is Vincent Kay's Orchestra,
which has been aermanently engaged
to play the shoWws at the Tudor.
All Atlanta knows the brand of mu

conductor is to be found in Atlanta
than this Atlanta boy. He ranges all
the way from the best classical music
to the jazziest rag—all of which he
does well.
Mildred Harris, the star of many
recent screen successes, appears in a
play that is pretty sure to tug at the
heart strings of the most hardened of
audiences. Miss Harris, also known
as - Mrs. Charlie Chaplin, wife of one
of the screen’s most renowned fun
makers, appears in a nlay written es

some of the most capable of the Uni

Briefly, the story concerns the
daughter of a small town plumber,

Although at first she is blinded to

snubs and at length the serious illness
of her mother finally set the girl right
and she goes home to true friends and
a true lover with the full realization
that her home is the dearest place in
