Here is the item:
A good April Fool joke happened
last April to Guy O. Glazier, a for
mer San Diego business man, who is
now engaged in the bee business.
While taking some wild bees up Camp
Kearny way, he left his machine
standing in the brush in an old side
road. When he came back large
swarm of stray bees had taken pos
session of the car and were moving
into an extra bee hive he had brought
along in the tonneau of the machine.
The queen already had moved in and
Some of the drones were sitting
around on the steering wheel trying
to start the car. When all was quiet,
Mr.. GlaZier drove off, and unloaded
the hive of bees at his apiary. They
are nov working for him. So, Mr..
GlaZier is now wondering whom the
Fool joke is on, him or the bees?

Ray has done some of the most amusing stories that have ever been shown on the screen. In Scrap Iron,' however, he goes farther m portraying a role which abounds with strong pathos and tense emotional work His performance of the role of John Steel is perfect, and between the dramatic situations there is enough of his peculiar droll humor to satisfy even the most ardent Ray enthusiast.
 The John Steel part furnishes him with role different from any he has ever enacted. An invalid mother is the person about whom his whole existence revolves. Unwittingly she earns him the scorn of his fellow workers when she wins from him d promise never to fight. The keeping of the promise also costs him his girl Then hegoses his joh.
 His fists are the only things left to him of value and he breaks his promise to the extent of engaging Tn one of the most thrilling fights that has ever taken place before the cam era It isn't the usual fight of the movies, for Ray takes a licking.

 The story is built about one of the most fascinating and sinister charac- ters that ever figured in fiction. Henry Hooper was killer by nature. To him, destroying life was as per mlssable an act as playing the piano, or reading his favorite books. In a little book he listed the people he had marked for destruction, then crossed them off, one by one, when his wick ed plans had been consummated.
