WALSH COMING TO
LAMARA GETS NOTE

George Walsh is due to have the
strangest meeting in the world, if lie
only follows instructions. It is to hap
pen in one of the foremost hotels in
Los Angeles and the person he is to
meet is known to him only by her own
description. She is tall and willowy
she says, with brown eyes and golden
hair. She will wait until he speaks to
her before she dares to address him.
The reward for his trouble. she
promises. will be a magnificent paint
ing of himself, which she has made
from memory after having seen him in
several William Fox photoplays.
The young woman lives in Iowa. She
recently wrote Mr.. Walsh, who is ap
pearing in "High Finance" one of the
usual type Of missives- that the fem
unity Of the country is sending to mo-
ton picture stars. After describing
her appearance to him she went on to
say.
Il have painted an oil portrait Of you,
and | am going to bring it with me to
Los Angeles next week | want you to
he nthe lobby Of the Alexandria hotel
three weeks from today which is Tues
day If you are there at five in the

George Walsh has promised to &c
down and nod his head at every girl in
the lobby.

there are piles of bones" in the slang

Mr.. Walsh plays the part of Preston
Platt, rich young fellow whose al

father. he hires out as a valet in an
effort to make good. He is employed
by Ethelbert, son of Mrs. Vanderpool,
the lady with archaeological Intentions
Mrs. Vanderpool goes west to seek
bones in a deserted mine and takes
the servants with her. Many humor-
Gus situations as well as thrilling in
cidents mark their western experience
but the beautiful love story which is
strung through the picture makes it
one OF the best nictures Mr. Walsh
has yet appeared in.
The added attraction consists OF one
of those side-splitting F'oXfilnl come

display of money spent to the most ar
