o Classical Modern Perfected Motion Picture Reproductions Don't class these wonderful reconstructed features with " reissues." They are not reissues, but re-edited and rebuilt features — new main and subtitles, new arrangement, new life, new highest grade Eastman film. Many six-reelers boiled down to five. They are actually all new but the story! EXHIBITORS RE-FEATURE DIGEST AMERICAN FILM CO. RECONSTRUCTIONS SAMUEL S.HUTCHINSON PRESIDENT FROM THE WEST Adapted from The Torch Rearer With the action both East and West this William Russell production offers an exceptional opportunity to give the fans action— and that's what they want now. Charlotte Burton, who needs no introduction — Harvey Clark, who has made thousands of friends during his many years in "Flying A" features (playup Clark, he has a following)— Dick LaReno, who appeared in Behold My Wife — in fact the cast is "ALL STAR." This feature has suspense, romance, action. It is a film classic that has stood the test of time and is infinitely better than many new productions now offered. THE VIRTUOUS OUTCAST Adapted from Faith Here is the best feature Mary Miles M inter ever made — bar none ! First, the star! Next, a story that just fits her. And the cast ! They are all stars — Clarence Burton, who appeared in Behold My Wife — Gertrude LeBrandt— John Gough, who was in Six Feet Four — Perry Banks — Margaret Shelby— Lizette Thorne ! This feature will bring tears to the eyes and a sob to the throat of everyone who sees it. It scores a hit in any house, with any audience. f HE MAN FROM MEDICINE HAT Adapted from The Manager of the B and A If they like thrills, action, suspense — they've got 'em here! The thrills, action, and suspense that made J. P. McGowan a successful director, and he's put 'em in this one — featuring Helen Holmes. A runaway box car narrowly missing a collision with the Limited — a fight in the railroad yards — a hospital fire and thrilling rescue — a street fight — a whole town on fire — the forest ablaze — a rescue train rushing through the falling, blazing trees — it's all one big thriller. Helen Holmes, Leo D. Maloney, Paul C. Hurst, William N. Chapman, William Brunton — every one at the top notch, in a rapidfire feature that makes you hold your breath. QUICK ACTION Adapted from In Bad An Action Comedy Urama Western with William Russell, supported by three stars. Bull Montana as a " box-fighter '* — Francella Billington as the " sweetheart " — H a r v e y Clark as the " Papa-inLaw." Crammed full of action, starting in the East and going straight West. There isn't a dull moment in the whole feature. There's a laugh every few minutes. And suspense right along. You're held right to the screen to the very last close-up. A dandy scrap between Russell and Bull Montana — an escape from the police — and Western action all over the hills of Arizona. Every exhibitor who plays this will mop-up!
