One bitter cold morning while
David Hartford was filming "The
Golden Snare" his latest Associated
First National attraction, he asked
Ruth Renick, leading lady, what
she was thinking about.
Miss Renick was perched atop her
sledge entirely submerged in furs
with her neck drawn tightly init
the collar of her parka. "Mr. Hart
ford, Pm thinking about dear old
Texas" she said. cts nice and hot
In Texas. Why, do you know, Mr..
Hartford, my uncle once told me it
was so hot in Texas on his ranch
that the sun popped a harmful of
corn stored for the winter, blew off
the roof of the place, and several
cows seeing the white fakes, thought
it was snow and froze to death"

the heat lasts. said the producer,

a Saddle With q Kick

That Constance Talmadge, star of
"Woman's Place." uses a saddle
different from one used by anyone
else became known only the othe-
day when a Fifth Avenue firm of
dealers in saddles, leather goods and
fancy articles was indicted on a
charge of. evading the luxury tax.
AS a result of the Indictment Con-
stance is now trying to figure out
the questiin: when is a cocktail
shaker not cocktail shaker?" The
answer seems to be when it is a
saddle. hks
She was sure she had purchased
cocktail shaker for her husband.
In fact, Sc would have sworn to it.
However, despite the fact that a
cocktail shaker resembles a saddle
as much as Bull Montana resembles
a Ziegfeld beauty, Department of
Justice agents learned, according to
the indictment, that the firm had
made duplicate slip for the Tai
madge purchase. According to the

Fake Crook.

1t is almost sad to have to record
the fact that the four crooks who APP
pear in "A Midnight Bell" forth
coming Charles Ray picture, could
never be legitimate members of any
self-respecting crook society.
All four are church members, are
happily married and two of them
have children, and everyone of
them is highly respected member
of society.
AS real crooks they are distinctly
dishonest fakes; as simulated rascals
they are highly successful, as their
individuals performances will amply
testify.
Perhaps the saddest part Of their
unfortunate circumstances is that
they enjoyed their misdeeds in "a
Midnight Bell" and were sorry when
they had to once more return to
resnectatility.

That's fine But in his recipe for successful matrmony
he failed right the start to mention the young woman
who. here in Delaware at least is important element
in the situation. There may be young women who are
willing accept Professor McKeevers statement and
young man limited at face value
There may be some, but they are woefuly in the min
ory.
Anyway, Professor McKeevers statement has awakened
widespread discussion Marriage OF young people IS
natural How long should they walt before launching
their little cancer How much should the man have be-
sides willing hands and alert brain?
zone good American dollar" doesn't make noise like
months rent or weeks grocery bill theoretically,
the professor may be right Practically, many OF his
friendly critics assert ne is talking through his spring

That is what some OF the girls say, at any rate
But few will blame the girl who accepts the young man
who has the American dollar the willing hands and the
alert BRAIN II he has pluck and JOB to which he'll stick
II ne has to mortgage his pay envelope to get his
real start.
Those fellows always succeed
