2 The Village Movie Paramount Pictures at the Village Theatre Robert Edeson in "Where the Trail Divides" Monday and Tuesday, November 23th and 24th Robert Edeson's portrayal of "How" in "Where the Trail Divides" brings out in most striking manner a high standard of manhood, honor, loyalty and unselfish devotion. He is so thoroughly "real" in this characterization, that even though he interprets the part of an Indian, the high principle and genuine goodness of the Indian make the photoplay particularly forceful and fascinating. Little "How," an Indian boy, after an uprising of the Indians, is adopted by Colonel Lander and taken to the Colonel's home. Little Bessie Howland, about the same age, is also adopted by Colonel Lander, Bessie's parents having been killed in the uprising. Bessie and "How" grow up together, and when "How" is sent away to school he makes rapid headway in the white man's mode of civilization and education. Graduation time comes, and Colonel Lander and Bess visit "How" and are met there by Craig, Colonel Lender's nephew. Craig and "How" both propose to Bess, and she accepts "How." Craig is very bitter toward "How," but he goes with them back to Buffalo Butte Ranch, at Coyote City, where he brings on a violent scene with Colonel Lander, with the result that the Colonel dies of heart failure, leaving all his estate to Craig and Bess. Craig orders "How" from the ranch. "How" buys a cabin and land and he and Bess are married. Later when "How" goes on a short trip, he returns unexpectedly and discovers Bess and Craig in each other's embrace. "How" gives Bess her freedom and rushes, out into the hills to fight it out alone. And still later, Craig and Bess are married. In the meantime "How" discovers oil on the property he gave Bess and follows Craig to New York. Craig proves unfaithful to Bess, and "How" brings him to account. Bess is finally convinced that her property is worth a fortune and is prevailed upon to return west. "How" also returns west, and then Craig follows Bess and endeavors to steal the deed to the property. The evil designs and purposes of Craig bring to him the fate he justly deserves, and the unselfish loyalty and honor of "How" win for him a high reward of happiness and peace, and the potent power of love erases all racial differences. This film Contains some splendid outdoor scenes, especially beautiful and interesting are the pictures showing the Indian scenes, and the homes and customs of the early settlers. There are a number of fade-away effects which are remarkably -well reproduced and the greatest care and attention has been given to developing the finest details perfectly. The picture cannot fail to make a deep and lasting impression on all who see it. And we can only add aeain that the Paramounts are better and better all the time.
