$50 OMETHING has to be done in or
der to stop persons from pulling
- up the plants in the park" said
park commissioner J. J. Connors. "A
specie of evergreen plant that the citv
has planted in Houston Square park
has been pulled up by the score and
carried away. These plants cost the
city IS cents each L believe that bovs
are the ones who are stealing the
plants. There must be some one who
is buying them. Almost anyone would
buy the evergreen plant II would add
to the beauty OF any yard. On the part
Of the city the plant IS being tried in
the nature OF an experiment We have
missed "a OF these plants already. An
example should be made Of the person
found pulling them up. Yet 60 not
believe in going after The children 1
never think that u child is to blame.
The blame rests on the parent. If one
of these boys is arrested his name
should be taken and then the fine
should be assessed against his father
The boy then will get what is coming
to him, Talk about stealing, thefts are
committed almost under ones eyes. The
other day some of my men were work
ing in the Alamo school district. They
left 100 feet OF hose in a WheelbarrOW
while they went to put away their

the WheeibarroW was left

say let the cattle move the cattle go
TO moving. When they say, let the
movement stop it does. The talk
had something to do with the slow
movement noted at present in the cat
tie business. They have about half Of
Maria up here for the federal court
business. suppose we viii be here
until court adjOurnS. Those who are
not excused viii be here. I do not be-
lIeve there is any one from Maria who
does not like to get up to Fl Paso once
IN awhile. FL PasO is 4 good town
The motion picture business Is zap
idly heading toward the presentation
OF elaborate film dramas which require
time and money to produce" said Ho-
mer Scott, former FL PasO phOtOgra-
Pher, who is now movie operator in
Los Angeles. THE days of fake pic
lures, fake scenes and fake costumes
are over. Just now my company is
planning phOtOplay which viii require
that the entire company go to Ger
many, Egypt and other foreign -cOun-
tries. The entire staff of artists, act
ors. operators and directors Will be
taken along and the play will be made
as true to life as it can be done. The
want makeShifT scene. but the real /
one, and the crowds which attend the
performances now are so well informed I
that there is no room for fakes. The

I am now connected, was the pioneer in !
this kind OF picture making and is !
leading all of them in the realism of /
their scenes and character interpreta- I
