GLORIA SWANSON
APPEARS TONITE
HER LOVE STORY
“HER LOVE STORY,” that’s the
title of Gloria’s latest picture, which
comes to the Liberty Theatre tonight.
The story is an adaption of Mary Rob
erts Reinhart’s novel and magazine
serial, “Her Majesty, the Queen.”
Ian Keith has the leading man’s
role opposite the star, and others in
the strong supporting cast include G.
Fawcett, Echlin Gayer, Mario Majer
oni, Sidney Herbert and other big
names well known on both stage and
screen.
To voice the opinion of the editor
of the magazine in which the story ap
peared, “Mary Robert Reinhart is one
of the most remarkable personalities
in the country. If some man wrote
all the novels, all th& plays and all
the perfectly wonderful stories that
she’s written, we—meaning we men—
would all get up on our feet and say,
‘here is o.ne w’ho can produce more
fine work than any living human be
ing.’
“And now she has written the ten
derest love story in many a day.”
Even that is putting it mildly. “Her
Love Story,” is said to be the best
Swanson picture ever made, and when
one recalls “The Humming Bird,” “A
Society Scandal,” “Manhandled” and
the others, this must be some picture.
It s a story of a beautiful young prin
cess, forced to marry the reprobate
king of a neighboring country. She
is in love with the captain of the
King’s Guards. There are complica
tions, dramatic scenes galore, with a
smashing climax that will pull you
right up out of your chair.

AGED NEWS BOY
LEAVES FORTUNE
PORTLAND, Jan. 12. (/P)—“Saint
Francis” Gurks, 94 years of age, a
news vendor and picturesque char
acter on the streets of Portland for
many years, who died Thursday, left
an estate of probably $50,000 to the
United States Bureau of Education.
A petition for probate of his will was
filed today.
Clothed in rags, with burlap wrap
ped about his feet in place of shoes
Gurks was a figure that would have
appeared more appropriate in a the
atrical setting than on the busy
street of a modern city. Every nite
he was on his corner in the down
town district crying his papers. He
lived alone in ashack and died with
out any known relatives.
Search of his effects has reveal
ed investments in Liberty Bonds
and stocks and bonds of utilityy
