VILLAGE BURNS AS
FOX STAR is FILMED In
"THE LUCKY CHARM"

Miami, Jan. 15.--Hundreds of Mi
amians and winter visitors saw the
Fox Film Corporation burn the Zulu
village. that it had erected on the FL
ser place on the Musa Isle road, last
night. the burning village making one
of the big scenes in the big William
Earnum production, "The Lucky
Charm" for the past few days, Zulu
warriors, recruited from the local
colored settlement, have been going
through stunts for the film, and they
have been giving Farnum some real
thrills for his picture.
When the last picture but one had
been taken of the village kerosene
was thrown on the matched huts, and
torch was applied, the two camera
man turning the crank as the "Hulus"
ran confusedly through the burning
huts. The fire was started just be-
fore dark, 5:45 p. m, to be exact, and
the flames mounting in the air, with
the tropical twilight coming on, made
the scene very realistic and thrill
ing one.
The fields about the old club house
and village were filled with parked au-
tomobiles, which had brought inter.
ested people to the village to watch
the pictures in the making.
AS Mr.. Farnum strolled about the
village, between the taking of one
scene and another, he became the bat.
terry of scores of cameras, and 1t IL
estimated that every camera fient
who watched the making OF the film
secured a snapshot of him. He posed
at will for the people, and the famous
Farnum smile will be seen on eacl

jungle stuff" will be the order foI
today for Mr.. Farnum and his com
pany. and several locations will b.
visited, all the pictures being taker
under the direction of Richard Stan
