NEXT TRAIN FOR HOME
WAS ALL RIGHT FOR MIN.

Tom Mix, the William Fox star, who
recently paid New York flying visit,
astonished his intervicwers when they
asked him how he liked the metropolis.
Mr. Mix had been shown every Won
der and mouth-opener which the city
boasted. Nevertheless, when the big
question was put to him, he did not
say a word-just pulled out his time
table and looked up the next train
back home to California.
1t wasn't because the famous dare
devil actor didn't marvel at the city's
greatness; it was simply because he
loved his West with its wonderful sun
sets and its rowing herds of cattle. Mix
is back on the west coast, but his mo-
ton pictures are to be seen all over
the world.
The latest of these comes to the Pas
tim theater Thursday. The name of
this William Fox production is Trail
in" a Max Brand story and Tom Mix
is given free play for dashing work
in the leading role.
