Richard Travers Is Popular Screen Actor Richard C. Travers, who comes to the liberty Thursday and Friday in person as well as in picture, is one of the most "-popular actors on the screen today. And it is not because of his good looks alone. Other actors are good looking. But they do not charm as Richard Travers does.

Most likely it is the athletic appear-a nee of the man, his air of being a scholar which no amount of tiackswoous makeup 1 can quite conceal and the sincerity wiih which he takes all parts, especially the love making scenes. On the screen he is an ideal lover. Perfect manners, graceful bearing and an air Ot IQUniUUU lot mo lauj nicaiou- Me, And Richard Travers never saw any wite woman except his mother until he was 10 years old. Even tnen he paid very little heed to girls, preferring at the age of IS to go out with the Canadians to Africa and fight in the Boer war. There because of his sis feet of height he was able to pass for 21 years of age and was made a lieutenant.

Promotions followed ia rapid succession. He was a prime favorite. On his return he entered college, later studied medicine and even practiced lor a Taen there came an unsettled pe- of readjustment and the big, luind- athiete drifted onto the stage. But he took his work seriously and after achieving success on the stage be' can acting for motion pictures. Thus was he Introduced to the American public.

And since his first 'screen appearance he baa had the unqualified friendship of all American movie fans. lapuiiil i ravers is at ms wsl in a Lories of the Far North. He fits naturally into scenes of the wild Canadian forests, primeval and untouched by the hand of man. He ia a true child of the north and his strength and bearing belong to the big HmwIm at that untamed countmr svAmthI brute force is often the only law oi the- land and where every roan must prove his nun to napwi uciurc ii is accurueu mm Captain Travers plays these parts with sincerity. He is so convincing in his portrayals that the onlooker experiences all: Ute real thrills of actually witnessing the deeds pictured on the screen.

Just soda a play and fitting Travers as ii it were written for him is "The Man Trail." lAimber camps and the fierce tribe who hew their way through virgin forests this ia the setting and the softening influence Is that of a woman, the woman that the young man from the East learns to love and tight for and finally win. The winning quality is another admira bw trait of Travers. One knows when he appears on the screen that he will win Even as a villain he enlists the sympathies, he is such a thorough scoundrel One regrets that he is not iie hero. And whjB Travers is the hero there is no ttouot as to the popularity of the plan.
