New Pictures

The White Black Sheep (Richard Barthelmess). One chivalrous gesture in defense of a lady accused of thieving, and Richard Barthelmess finds himself, a man in disgrace, engaged in battle with warring tribes of the Sahara Desert. The natives seize him, bury him to the neck in sand, fling their spears all around and very close to his head. Thus teased, Actor Barthelmess registers fury; it goes hard with the dastardly natives, and the hero's side wins.

The Fire Brigade (Charles Ray, May McAvoy). Lest that drab day come when Young America shall cease to begin life with fire-fighting aspirations, Director Nigh provides the public with a picture well calculated to arouse boyish enthusiasm. The hero is a fireman who not only rescues women and children from the flames, but fearlessly announces to the heroine's papa, corrupt politician, that it is unethical to build firetraps. Charles Ray is the young man with brass buttons, tin hat; and May McAvoy, as the pleasing heroine, marries him in a smoky fadeout, while Boy Scouts in the audience roar approval.
