Brother and Sweetheart Vie
For Right to Avenge Girl.
A delicate question in chiv
alry is answered in Vita
graph’s latest picture of the
Earle Williams brand. The
question is, Who has pre
cedence in responsibility for a
girl—her brother or her sweet
heart? The picture is “The
Wolf.”
It will be shown at the
jewel Theatre on next Thurs
day Oct. 28.
According to the picture,
circumstances permitting, the
task of upholding, protecting
and vindicating the honor of
the girl belongs to the brother
Such a situation arises when
Jules Beaubien, played by Mr.
Williams, takes up the gaunt
let for the little half-breed
Indian girl who had been his
sister whom he had never seen
and who is now d3ad.
Annette, the girl, has been
loved by Baptiste, half-breed
trapper While Baptiste is
away ‘ on a hunting trip a
stranger from the States ar
rives a4 the Indian village and
charms the s:mple Indian girl
into ruin.
Jules learns from his father
on the latter’s deathbed about
his sister. He sets out to find
die girl. Baptiste, returning
from another region about
the same time, also is headed
for the Indian village. Jules
finds the girl dead in the snow
with-an infant at her breast.
Jules demands the right of
vengeance.
The quest for her betrayer
brings about dramatic happen
ings.

“Don’t change your company,” is tne advice Earle Williams gives t? young
screen players, and then he adds, “providing you are with the right company.”
Earle Williams is one of the few film players who has never changed his
habitation from one studio to another. He commenced his career 12 years
ago with the Vitagraph star family and has never strayed from the fold
“The Wolf,” visualized from Eugene Walters’ famous stage play, and “Tin
Fortune Hunter,” from Winchell Smith’s play, have been the means of ein
phasizing Mr. Williams’ ability and popular attraction recently.
