Movie Fans See
Odd Screen Sight
| Local movie fans witnessed an odd
and pathetic sight la.., night at the
Webb. They saw the once famous
star Barbara LaMarr appear 6n the
silver sheet practically as a dying
woman—her once robust form shrunk
iso thin that she appeared almost a.*
a sk'leton.
Barbara, fulling from her height as
a screen headliner, wanted to come
back, Wl she wanted o badly to do
this thing, that she defied the (I*ini
Reaper and went ahead making a pic
turc which she believed would re- i
establish her fame.
Her effort was supreme, the wo
man dying a few days after the film ;
was completed and the pathetic part
of it all was, she failed in her en
deavor. Her managers furnished her
with an impossible plot; the picture
wits poor; but as a record of the am
bition and pluck of a woman playei i
it stands uniipio in screen annals.

(CORRECT DRESSERS FOR MEN
AND BOYS.)
(By Walt Mason)
It isn’t what we earn that counts; it’s
what we put away. I took in coin in vast
amounts, ere I grew old and gray. I said,
“I’ll gambol as I please and paint the fool
ish town, for coin is growing on the trees,
and I can shake it down.” On Saturday I
drew my pay, a goodly roll and fat; on
Monday morn I’d take my way to soak my
watch and hat. All through my years of
youth and health, my ways were wild and
rash, I gayly threw away my wealth, I burn
ed the easy cash. Then came the sad and
fatal day when I woke up to find that I was
old and stale and gray, not equal to the
grind. There- came a siege of stringent
time s: the boss was sad and sore; he said,
“I’ll have to save the dimes,” and fired me
from his door. And after all my years of
toil I had no plunk, that day, to make the
old tin kettle hoik to keep the wolf away.
I thought Of all the costly joys I’d bought
hi bypcnc years, of foolish nights with fool*
ish hoys', and rhccl a clack of tears. T
thought of chances that were dead, and
gone hey end recall; and then-I bumped my
aching head against the nearest wall. But
there is nothing in re morse, except an add
ed jolt, and v/eepipg for an old dead horse
wen t bring along a colt. So live, young
man, that when you’re old you’ve no such
luck as mine, and have a parcel of red
gold put somewhere safe in brine.

WITH A RING
IN HIS NOSE
You have seen him.
Magnificent ip his strength, rolls of
muscle around his bowed neck, his knurled
horns separated by creases about his eyes,
——these furrows being themselves expres
sions of dignity.
S*eek despite his massiveness, there was
pride in every stately step.
But there was a ring in his nose.
Attached to the ring was a chain.
At the end of the chain was—possibly a
small boy.
A travesty?
Perhaps.
Yet the ring was there, and that little
ring held him subservient to the will of
lesser strength.
v v '
When we see the young man-or the old
er rnan, for that matter—unable to resist
the temptation to consume every dollar of
his earnings in one continuous round of
pleasure-seeking, there is a sub-conscious
thought—
With a ring in his nose!
