Just to prove the truth of the above assertion, George O'Brien demon strates that a cowboy's life in the modern West can be a thrilling ono in "Smoke Lightning," his Fox Film vehicle, now showing at the Oriental Theatre. Bristling with gunfights, a jailbreak, a poker game that ruins one of the players, a gripping duel: across the car-roofs of a racing train and some of the most brilliant riding ever shown on the screen, this pic ture is scheduled to dispel any ideas that the West of to-day is tranquil.

Taken from the Zano. Groy novel, "Canyon. Walls," the story deals with the hectic experiences of a roving cowpuncher and his pal who decide to appoint themselves guardians of little girl after the death of her father leaves hop a wealthy orphan. The

Inigo Jollifant, the school teacher, rebels against the drudgery of his occupation. He de- tests the school diot of shepherd's pie and stewed prunes. He lonthes the headmaster and his "dark and secret bag" of a wife, Miss Elizabeth Trant, too, has spent vital years of hor life caring for her father. On his death she rebels against the thought of becoming companion to an old lady, buys a car and proceeds to drive off into the blue," not caring whither slic, goes.
