"Leatherstocking," the new ten- chapter Pathe serial featuring Edna Murphy and Harold Miller, makes one forget the telephones, radios, submarines, aeroplanes and other seientific marvels. of our highly civilised twentieth century and takes us back, through the magie of the silver sheet, to the thrilling and stirring events of nearly two hundred years ago, ag 'related by James Fenimore Cooper in his world famous Leatherstocking Tales.

Then tribes of wandering Hurons swarmed the shores of the Takes Intaking war on the settlers and ally-, ing themselves with the French and English, who were fighting for supremacy over the country fron which the Indians were slowly and surely being driven. Principally concerned in the story of "Leather- stocking" are Leatherstocking, the scout and hunter who had lived. with the Indians, his Mohican friends, Chlagachgook and Wah-ta- wah, and Tom Hutter, and ex-pirate, and his two beautiful and cour ageous daughters, Judith and Hetty. Each episode throbs with action and thrills with suspense.

"The Riddle Rider." Desmond and Elleen Sedgwick, two strong stars, are seen in ̈every possible predicament from a cloud- burst to an exploding oil derrick in the Riddle Rider. Desmond's 25-

tounding feat of buildogging a steer, the fight on the roof of a careening stage couch, the des Iperate battle in the flood; these are all items in the general list of ex- citement.
