MAY BE BONES OF HEROES
Uncertainty as to Human Relics Re-
Gently Found Near the Famous
Alamo at San Antonio.

Recently wcrkmen have unearthed
In portion of the Alamo grounds at
San Antonio bones which may be those
of the heroes of Texas whose bodies
were cremated by the victorious hordes
under Santa Anna.
No effort was made to gather the
bones nor 10 remove them to the in
closure OF the Alamo. They were per-
mitted to remain where they were
found: and a garage is to be built over
the spot, the ground where the dis
covery was made being outside the
walls and part of the property which
has gone to commercial use.
The bones were found some 200
feet south of the wall of the Alamo
and the inquiry made has not fully de-
veloped whether they were those of
the Texans Or whether they We're those
of the Indians who were used to build
the ancient mission and who formed
the colony which the friars gathered
about them to till their fields and to
provide the food and the feed they re-
qulred.-Houston Post.

No photoplay can be greater than
Its theme.
In the age-old discussion as to the
comparative merits of story, acting
and direction, the story has won it's
rightful first place, but the time has
come when we are thinking back of
the story-or beyond it. as you
choose.
Theme" does not mean Sermon. !"
Dramas primarily intended as ethi-
cal lessons usually fail, as they
should. Unless an artistic work in
trigues the senses-to put It more
plainly, unless 1t entertains-it is not
an artistic work at all.
The themes of the photoplay that
have been memorable. from Stella
Maris" to "The Miracle Man" from
1.-THE Birth of Nation" to Madame
x" have been based on the deep
down things which are every mans
inheritance.
American life we admit. was once
lived too easily, too specifically.
But we are no longer childishly
happy, snugly contended nation: we
are nation in manhood as resolute
as It is restless. bearing our share of
the worlds burdens. and sorrows. as
well as partaking of its fruits of VIC

The day is past when we can con-

Theatrical Year Opens.

j. .-
Theatrical Year Opens.
The theatrical season of 192o-21
opened this week.. The forerunner
of the show year, the opening Of the
burlesaue wheels, came with the be-
ginning OF August. The annual try
outs" OF big musical shows and
dramatic productions in the smaller
cities of. the east have begun and
before the end OF the month produc-
lions which are to test New York
popularity will be housed III Gotham
.theaters. The FIRST crop of next sea-
sons offerings have already been
s'tried on the dog and some have
proved worthy on first presentation
wl4ile others have been sent to the
play doctor for revision or the stage
paraphenalia hais been stored and
the companies dismissed.
Managers who risk fortunes in
new shows are showing greater
caution In picking; their plays this
year. Play production has become
a much greater gamble than it was
some years ago. AS result the
plays which are coming before the
public for the first time may be ex-
;pected to be of superior quality. The
manager is SEEING. to- 1t that first,
the play is worthy; second, that the
-sproduction Is adequate. The old
ratio Of one play In twenty
proving fairly successful must be re-
ssduced and where managers previous
lily offered score or more new
shows, a half dozen will Y Q attempt
ed. But that half dozen. will be
given far greater attention and must
be superior in every way to the
average show.
Managers now must have success
sses. They must know that the play is
worthy, that the company selected is
capable, and then produce in man
her which will he appealing. It
should always be horne in mind by
the public that 5tns managers are
catering to the PUBLIC wants. Man
ayers are not wasting their money
on girl shows that will not draw
at tho box office: Experience teach
es what the public; wants and the
managers produce by experience.
The unparalleled success OF
""Lightin'' in New, York City has
caused many managers to turn to
the homely rural plays, not because
they, desire to produce that type or
drama moro particularly than an
other. but because The public has
shown . desire to see such produc-
lions. There will b., more OF them
