PRODUCER
mine owner. David, who is a guest, takes the part of the miner delegation in an effort to persuade the owner to improve the conditions in his mine. Unsuccessful in this, he leaves the city and goes back to take his place among the miners just as a cave-in at the mine occurs.
Then follows a long series of tremendously dramatic scenes in the mine, showing those imprisoned gradually succumbing to the lack of air and the frantic efforts of the rescuers extending over many hours of time to release them. No stronger sustained suspense can be imagined than is portrayed during this trying ordeal. Its effect upon the families of the miners, upon the officers and owner of the mine and upon the workers, is heart-gripping to every spectator. The final rescue finds hardly a dry eye in the audience.
The supreme thrill comes when the miners move in force to attack the office and the owner. David Graham pleads from the doorway for peaceful methods and the little deaf and dumb girl, now grown to womanhood, miraculously recovers her speech and addresses the astonished and humbled miners.
This subject is particularly recommended for its high moral tone, not only for the family, but also for religious and other organizations seeking a subject of the uplift type.

8043 Code SAGO The Barefoot Boy C. B. C.
Inspired by the famous poem of the same name by John Greenleaf IV hit tier Featuring John Bozuers, Tully Marshall, Raymond Hatton, Frankie Lee,
Marjorie Dazv and Sylvia Breamer The story opens in the town of Oakville in 1900 — a rural community which mistakes the murmur of the village for the roar of the world. The Barefoot Boy is shown as the bad boy of the village, which reputation he does not deserve, but on account of which many mischievous pranks are attributed to him which were not committed by him. His sufferings culminate when the city school is burned and he is unjustly accused and his father attempts to "whale the truth out of him" at the sheriff's suggestion. Disgusted, soured and in despair he leaves home with his mother's blessing to seek his fortune elsewhere. Success crowns his effort and he returns to the town of his boyhood to wreak his vengeance for his early sufferings. A series of dramatic episodes follow, including a physical and mental shock which shows him the futility of personal vengeance and the divinity of forgiveness.
This is a heart-interest story — clean and wholesome — without very much romance, but making a universal appeal to young and old alike. 4679 feet standard length — on 5 reels Rental $5 XX)
