I HAVE MADE SONGS.

Though have made you many a gold

Hymning your loveliness in artfui

No one of these but does your beauty
wrong,
And stands a liber for all listening
time.
Dusks. l have said, are clouding
through your hair,
And Earth's old twiiights finger
where you are,
Dreams. I have said, have made your
eyes a lair
For largess brought from some old
ruined star.
Yet, all OF this is but a faltering art
OF futile words that strain beyond
their reach;
And still about your image in my
heart,
Trembles the clustered silence
closed to speech
A tempted shrine. dim and holy
place,
Where no least word profanes your
lifted face.

TWO REAL CONvICTS ESCAPE
IN MOVIE JAIL DELIVERY

Once in rare while things so
wrong in the movies in quite a surpris-
ing manner but rarely If ever does a
Jail delivery take place in which real
honest to goodness convicts escape.
This is what actually happened,
however, in the filming OF some prison
scenes in Where Is My Wandering
Boy Tonight" the picture that is said
to be one of the biggest heart punch
pictures of many years and which
comes to the Pastime theater on Tues
day.
Scenes were being shot of the hero
of the picture helping the warden
escape severe punishment at the hands
of a gang of supposedly escaping con-
victs. The escaping convicts were
motion picture actors dressed as con-
victs. During the filming Of this big
punch escape scene two real convicts
got mixed up with the actors portray
ing the parts and beat their way TO
safety. Not knowing that these two
real convicts were among the actors,
no one paid any attention TO them and
they made good their escape. Half an
hour later they were missed and an
alarm sounded. They were recaptured
under a railroad bridge where they
had hidden themselves and were led
back to their cells. They seemed TO
enjoy their experience hugely. The es-
cape scenes and railroad locomotive
smash-up in Where Is My Wandering
Boy Tonight" constitute some of the
biggest punch scenes ever registered
in the movies.
