MUTT AND JEFF'S
WEDDING, A REAL HIT,
AT CRYSTAL TUESDAY

If it were made by Gus Hin, the
sole owner and manager of Mutt a
Jeff, it would undoubtedly he set down
as due to an exaggerated egotism, but
coming from the critic Of one of the
most popular, most important and
largest circulated newspapers in the
eastern country, it must necessarily
have weight with the theater-g going
public. The expression is an honest
criticism that has been used by the
critics of at least 1900 daily and
Sunday newspapers throughout the
United states and Canada in the past
three years, which denotes unmls-
takably the fact that an equal mum
Der of trained writer's, whose business
is to see, compare and criticise plays
for the benefit OF newspaper readers,

Of the pen in the hands Of a clever
artist with master brain, have at

forest Of the best men, women and
children of America and Europe.
Therefore it is not to be wondered at
that the public never grows tired OF
seeing Mutt & Jeff in real life. Mutt
& Jeffs Wedding" is the title Of the
new offering which Gus Hill has pre-
pared at the cost of a small fortune
for new scenery, costumes, story and
everything to make the most elabor-
ately magnificent musical comedy pro-

CARRANZA PURCHASING
MUNITIONS FROM JAPS
sr aopa.na Journal SPECIAL LEASED WIRE

lei Paso, Tex. Dee. 29.-The Car
rama government has lately transmit
ted the sum of a million pesos gold to
Japan in payment for war munitions
il was learned here tonight from
well-informed source. one shipment
of munitions has already been re
ceived according to this source, and
the second one is due. 1t is said to
consist of artillery, shell and ileld
guns including anti-aircraft cannon.
The same authority claims to have
information that the two new cart
ridge factories established by the
Cailanla government v-%a a c'-s-s'' {"
of $4,000 cartridges day each, are
equipped with the latest type OF
American machinery shipped ana
sold to a firm in Spain and then re-
shipped to Mexico by way of Vera
Cruz.
When the rebel leader Zapata occu-
pied Mexico City he is known to have
sent away the machinery from the
old cartridge factory there to the
south for his own use. This machlh-
cry was out Of date.
Mexican newspapers, at the ume
the new factories We're established.
gave much space to describing lheif
equipment. which they said Was of the
newest pattern.
