hailed in advance reports as one of
the best films Buck lopes ever has

who voluntarily submits to disgrace
and expulsion from the service in
[order to trap the mysterious master
mind of a group o< rascals who have
terrorized a town with ten baffling
robberies These crimes have brought
bitter criticism an the Mounties, and
Jobes joins the outlaw gang for the
purpose of catching the actual ring
leader After a series of heroic ex
ploits, hencleans up the outfit and
brings its deader to justice.
One of the finest casts ever seen
in a Jones picture appears in “Mc
Kenna of the Mounted” at the Dream
Theatre tonight, Greta Grantsedt,
blond beauty who hitch-hiked hun
dreds of miles to get into the movies
a few years ago, plays Buck’s her
oine. Niles Welch and Mitchell Lew
is play the principal villain roles. On

McGrail, Ralph Lewis, Claude King
