FAMOUS STAR AT NEW GRAND THEATRE CLARA KIMBALL YOUNG WILL BE SHOWN IN "THE COMMON LAW" SUNDAY AND MONDAY SPLENDID PROGRAM ALSO ARRANGED FOR THE BALANCE OF THIS WEEK Clara Kimball Young, one of the most popular stars in photoplay, will be seen at the New Grand Sunday and Monday night, Nov. 19 and 20, and at Sunday's matinee in a screen version of Robert W. Chamber's famous novel "The Common Law." This picture is expected to prove the greatest of Miss Young's many succeses and is particularly interesting in the fact that it inaugurates the Clara Kimball Young Film corporation, the first producing organization ever created in the name of a woman screen star. The production was screened under the direction of Albert Capellani, who has produced a number of Miss Young's finest pictures, including "Camille" in which Miss Young scored her greatest triumph to date. Mr. Capellani has surrounded Miss Young with a remarkable cast. The leading male role is played by Conway Tearle, one of the best known of the younger stage stars of the day, while Paul Capellani, who has supported Miss Young in several of her pictures, will NEW GRAD THEATRE BEAUTIFUL SAFE AND SANITARY THE PRIDE OF ANAHI THE HOME OF "ALWAYS GOOD" Wed. and Thurs., Nov.

Mr. Capellani has surrounded Miss Young with a remarkable cast. The leading male role is played by Conway Tearle, one of the best known of the younger stage stars of the day, while Paul Capellani, who has supported Miss Young in several of her pictures, will be seen in another powerful presentation. Others in the cast are Edna Hunter, Lillian Cook, Julia Stuart, Edward M. Kimball, Lydia Knott and B. J. Flannigan. According to the story Valerie West an educated and cultured girl who has become an artist model through force of circumstances, falls in love with Neville, a painter for whom she poses. Her love is returned, but owing to the artist's social connections, Valerie is convinced that a marriage would ruin his career. She offers herself in love to the man of her heart and the day is set on which she is to come to him under "the common law." Through a chain of incidents of unusual dramatic power, Valerie conquers the objections of Neville's family and in the end the lovers find themselves free to be united in the safer and more conservative bonds of the law made by man. The characters in the story are distant metropolitan types of unusual interest, and as produced by Director General Albert Capellani, the picture promises to be the sensation of the coming season. One of the most fascinating stars on the screen is winsome little Viola Dana, who will be shown tonight at the Grand in "The Light of Happiness." This play was written especially for Miss Dana by John H. Collins, who also directed its production. There is a flavor of the delightful writings of Sir James M. Barrie in the characterization Mr. Collins has drawn in the part of "Tangletop," the role essayed by Miss Dana. Left an orphan, the daughter of a drunken father, she is shunned by ythe community. A young minister who comes to the town and who understands the great and true principles of humanity, takes her under his wing. The town gossips revel in this action on his part and plan his ruin with their vicious attacks. There are many interesting complications in the story and it is unfolded in a masterly and artistic manner on the screen. FRI. and SAT., NOV. 19 SATURDAY MATINEE 2:30 BLUEBIRD PHOTOPLAYS, INC.

EITHER CALL IN PERSON HOME 612; PACIFIC 494 Mr. Collins has succeeded in producing a picture of life in the countryside that rings true and that is a departure from the usual run of stories laid down in a small town. One of the novel and intense situations is presented in the church where the minister denounces the members of his congregation for plotting the downfall of the girl and bearing false witness against him. Many quaint characters are introduced, and altogether it is a refreshing, wholesome comedy drama of the newer type. Myrtle Gonzalez is a favorite with patrons of the Grand. She will appear again Friday night, Saturday afternoon and Saturday night in a stirring five-act romance of California, "The End of the Rainbow." She was seen here recently, in "The Girl of Lost Lake," and the "Secret of the Swamp." In "The End of the Rainbow" the story goes that when millionaire Elihu Bennett's daughter Ruth insisted upon taking a course in business college the fond parent made no objection, but when the girl wanted to take a position in his office as stenographer, the old gentleman balked. Rather self willed, the girl determined to some day become a regular sure enough stenographer. Her chance came when her father hired a girl to go to the redwood forests of California to work in his office there. Ruth played a trick on her father, bribed the girl who was regularly employed to surrender her credentials, and when Miss Bennett, under the other girl's name, took the job events in Mume, Ca., started to move swiftly. Bennett was one of a syndicate of millionaires who wanted to corral the standing timber and pay the squatters practically nothing for their interests. Ferdinand Stocker represented Bennett, and as Stocker's stenographer, Ruth learned that there was a game of double crossing that applied both to the squatters and the timber monopolists that worked both ways to the benefit of Stocker's private purse. Miss Bennett likewise discovered that Jerry Simpson, a young man who spent his leisure studying law that he might better fit himself to defend his father and neighbors against the inroads of the "timber ring" was not alone a clever chap but an extremely manly and upright person, worthy of regard, and certainly attractive in his many personal characteristics. How Ruth worked out the solution that sent Stocker down the timber chutes to his death, and ultimately secured for herself a very fine specimen of mountain manhood is detail in full in this fine Bluebird play. Those who have followed the adventures of "Liberty" the girl from U.S.A. who is having such a strengeness time with them are getting intense story. It is a thrill up the vicious act of the monster.

Mr. Mozart knows the theatre business from A to Z and also knows how to get the people to his theatre by judicious advertising. Invitations have been issued for a social dance to be given at the Opera house on Saturday, which promises to be a very enjoyable affair. The committee in charge consists of Misses Lina Daniel, Eggie Manriquez, Esther Maccaray, Margaret Bustemante, and Ophelia Daniel. Modernizing the old time county fair idea, the Santa Ana chamber of Commerce is bending every effort toward securing for Santa Ana an annual farm tractor demonstration, such as was held two months ago at Puente, where all styles of farm tractors at all kinds of prices, may be put through their paces and demonstrate to the thousands of people who gather just what the farm tractor is and what work it can do on the farms of Orange county. The Bastanchury Ranch company is still further extending its citrus orchard tracts and developing a number of beautiful homesites. In order to prepare for this further development the company is having installed another centrifugal pump in a 16-inch well, the pump being placed at a depth of 150 feet. Although this is probably deeper than necessary to draw the water. Mr. Bastanchury, president of the company believes in preparedness and is taking this precaution to have a satisfactory water supply at all times. As the outcome of an automobile accident at the intersection of Spadra and Orangethorpe avenues, R. L. Mercer, through Attorney H. D. Thurber filed suit Saturday afternoon in the uous time with the Mexican bandits, are getting intensely interested in the story. It is a thrilling serial, showing up the vicious and blood-thirsty character of the mongrel soldiery of Mexico. Two more reels will be shown Friday and Saturday nights and Saturday afternoon. In discussing the license ordinance now in effect in this city, the interesting point was brought out at the recent meeting of the board of trustees that the farmer who sells milk within the city, who is a resident and taxpayer with in the city and who does not maintain a fixed place of business, other than his home, pays the same license as the man who lives just outside the limits, and who sells his product to residents within the city. It would appear that the license should be graduated in such cases, giving the home man the benefit, or better still take the tax off of milk sold by the resident taxpayer. Milk could be classed in the same category as fruit, vegetables, etc., for the sale of which within the city a man should not be expected to pay a city license. A man who raises his own cows, and feed for them, it would appear, in all fairness, should not be taxed to sell the milk. Dr. M. M. Henderson, Dentist, Suite 1, Mullinix Bldg., Anaheim. As the outcome of an automobile accident at the intersection of Spadra and Orangethorpe avenues, R. L. Mercer, through Attorney H. D. Thurber filed suit Saturday afternoon in the justice court at Fullerton against J. E. Cunningham. Mercer asks judgment for $180, which it is alleged covers depreciation in the car, cost of repairing it and the cost of hiring another car while the repairs were being made. Mercer was traveling north on Spadra avenue and Cunningham, who lives in East Anaheim, was traveling east. The two cars came together and Mercer's car was overturned. The passengers in both cars escaped with minor injuries. P. J. Weisel & Co. report a flourishing business in the sale of Hudson Sixs and Dodge cars. A carload of the latter were received on Saturday which were immediately delivered to waiting customers. The same rule applies to the Hudsons, the firm having more orders upon their books than they can fill. Mr. Weisel thoroughly understands the automobile business, and being surrounded by a corp of efficient mechanics and salesmen enjoys a good business. W. A. Mattox, representing the Western Gas Engine Co., was in town Thursday evening, attending a meeting of the board of trustees in the interests of his corporation. After the meeting Mr. Mattox returned to his home in Long Beach. A large potato, weighing 3 pounds, two ounces, grown on Capt. Victor Schumacher's ranch on East Orange-thorpe avenue, was brought to this office by Edward Schleuter a few days ago, where it has attracted much attention by many who have viewed the tuber. The potato is oddly shaped and that it grew to such large proportions is evidence of the prolific soil of the Captain's ranch which is rated as one of the best in the county. Frank Anderson will ride Earl Nebelung and J. K. Lybarger up Center street at nine o'clock Saturday night in a wheelbarrow, as the result of a slight difference in opinion as to the results of the recent election. Fire on Saturday night destroyed a large barn belonging to Mr. O'Brien of Placentia, burning also two horses and 70 tons of hay. Nine head of stock were in the barn at the time but seven were freed from the burning building. The Anaheim fire company was asked for aid, and responded quickly with the chemical engine, but the flames had assumed too much headway, the barn being a total loss. The origin of the fire is a mystery. Only Only BIG CIRCUS Coming this Season Real Wild Animal Show on Earth A1.

Commodore Gallemore of the Fullerton News, was in town this week receiving the glad hand and exhibiting symptoms of that smile which never wears off, even though the election was not altogether what he hoped it would be.
