WALLY REID AGAIN
AT EMPRESS TONIGHT
. —NEW BILL SUNDAY
-
‘ Believe Me, Xantippe,” with Wal
lace Reid, is repeated for the last
time tonight at the Empress. If you
failed to see it last night, don’t over
look a good bet tonight, for it has all
the whirl, dash and action of a regu
lar Reid winner.
And tomorrow night, just the oppo
site kind of a picture is booked—
charming May Allison in “The Suc
cessful Adventure.” This is one of
those rare achievements, a play so
natural, so filled with quiet humor,
quaint character types and heart ap
peal that the screen is forgotten and
the actors seem alive.
The story is not new—two old
Southern brothers, at feud for many
j years, one in the North, the other still
j living in the decayed old family home,
| ifoth bitter and unyielding, must be
1 reconciled and brought together. But
| how? The charm and fascination of
j the play lies in the unfolding of the
j “Successful Adventure” whereby our
! little Southern belle solves the prob
j lem and brings “Daniel to the lion’s
den.”

ENRAGED MOOSE ON
BOULDER, Mont., March 13 (by As
sociated Press).—Ben Bridges of the
Little Boulder country had the novel
experience recently of being attacked
by an enraged moose which had been
“stirred up” by his Airedale dog, and
only the speed of the horses driven
by Bridges averted what might have
been a tragedy.
The dog had attacked the' moose
near the roacL, and the angry animal,
which had shed its horns, attacked the
dog, driving the latter under the
wagon. The moose drove straight into
Ihe side of one of the horses, injuring
the animal. The team became fright
ened and threatened to plunge over a
steep embankment on the*side of the
road. Bridges finally got the horses
started down the road, and by yelling
and waving his arms drove the animal
away.
