"The Harvester," an FBO picture
adapted for the screen from the late
Gene Stratton-Porter's novel of the.
same name, comes to the Idle .Hour
theatre next Thursday and Friday
with a cast of players who truly bring
to life the characters of the book, so
long familiar to' a wide circle of read
ers. Further adding to the realism ,f the
picture is the fact that it was p-o-duccdj
under the direction of Leo
Median, who is the son:in-law of
the author, and through familiarity
with her ; ideas was enabled to select
players who exactly typified the char
acters she had ..visualized. '
Heading the cast, in the title' role
of The Harvester, is Orville Caldwell,
who has .-alternated between screen
and stage for the past seven years,
and who is perhaps best known
through his appearance for 2 1-2
years as the Knight, the leading male
role in Morris (jest's great stage spec
tacle, "The Miracle."
Appearing opposite Caldwell in
"The Harvester" is Natalie Kingston,
formerly principal dancer at the Win
ter Garden, in New York, lately fea
tured opposite Harry Langdoli in
many pictures, and more recently seen
as leading lady for Milton Sills.
Jay Hunt, veteran, actor and direc
tor on both stage and screen, and
well remembered for his playing of
the title' role in the screen version of
"Lightnin'," appears as Dr. Carey,
and the role of the brutal Jamison
is in the hands of Will Walling, an
other veteran ' with a record of 37
years as an actor.
Other well known players who are
members of "The Harvester" cast arc-
Lola Todd, .Edward Hearn and Sati
ny Midglcy.
