BUCK JONES
AT OPERA HOUSE.

Buck Jones, the noted star-who
is no longer Buck, but Charles, and
50 christened-will be seen as a
Texas Ranger in his latest Fox
picture, Riding with Death," at
the Opera House Monday.
Time and time again Rangers
and ex-Rangers, riding and fighting
elbow to elbow with Jones, have
told him.
You ought to have been one of
us. If ever there was man cut
out to be a Ranger, it's you"
And now Charles Jones, the erst-
while Buck" of many live action
pictures of the west, is Texas
Ranger-on the silver screen.
