Mi unknown element In dramatic , screen production, the introduction of animal comedy to relieve tension, has been successfully 'practiced in "Back to God's Country," by James Oliver Curwood, adapted from his famous magazine story, "Wapi, the Walrus," Nell Shlpman, popular American screen favorite, as Dolores; Wheeler Oaknian, Wellington Playter and Charles Arling, in other roles in the cast,, portray their parts with the aid and support of nearly two dozen ani mals, consisting of .bears, wolves, lynx, fox, deer, mountain lions, rac coons, poreupiaes, goats and other! forest beasts, trained to perfection' by expert animal trainers.

Ethel Clayton, Ford Sterling Wednes day and Thursday. Miss Clayton has In abundance the two essentials for success' as a motion picture star striking beauty and per sonality and a surpassing ability to act before the camera, in addition, she is known as one of tho best dress ed actresses and models of fashion on the screen. She excels In emotional roles, though she is not without a piquant sense of humor that makes her delightful in comedy situations. "The Thirteenth Commandment" offers Miss Clayton a thoroughly con genial role. As the extravagant daugh ter of a middle western merchant, she has an opportunity to wear some of the exquisite gowns for which she is famous. Her portrayal of the de velopment of this spoiled girl into a capable, self-sustaining woman under the whlp-lash of circumstances is a masterpiece of screen acting. Kord Sterling In "A Ladles Tailor" is the most mirth provoking comedian you will see for a long time. It is great comedy.
