Tom Mix has appeared In many
fine Western pictures but most OF
his productions have been made with
very ordinary casts. In THE LUCKY
Horseshoe" Tom has surrounded
himself with such stars as Ann Pen
nington, Billy Dove and Malcolm
Waite. The results are very graft
fying as not only is wonderful
western picture made but it is I'm
ished production with cast capa-
BILE of making any kind Of drama.
Tom Mix and Tony provide the
thrills; J. Farrell Macdonald makes
the laughs and Billy Dove and Ann
Pennington head the host of beau
ties. This picture is heralded by the
press and public of New York as
Tom Mix's mightiest screen enter
tainment.
William Fox presents Edmund
Lowe in Greater than Crown"
based on the novel, 1.-The Lady from
Longacres" by Victor Bridges. This
is a romance of thrills, mystery, love
and adventure Included in the cast
is Dolores Costello, the daughter Of
Maurice Costello, who will be re-
membered as dashing hero Of a
dozen years ago. Ben Hendricks,
who lived in Augusta several years
ago, plays an important part. Will
lam Fox productions always have a
punch and Greater than Crown"
Is considered one of his best.

Merely Wanted to Obliae

This story is told at the expense
of well-known theatrical manager:
1--WE were engaged one morning
testing voices for new production
the manager, musical director, and
myself
I'VE reached the last of the april
cants, very melancholy looking
man. AS he came to the piano he at
tempted to make some remark, hut
was cut short by the manager, who
said:
You will omit all preliminary re-
marks and get down to business. Try
him. he added, turning to the
director
The latter began the accompani-
ment to popular song. which with
some hesitancy the applicant for a
job attempted to sing. His effort was
about as bad as it could have been.
Look here cut in the manager,
after the singer had finished the first
verse, that will do. You actually
have the nerve to ask me for job? p
Certainly replied the sad one,
in an injured tone.
Why. man. you can't sing a Bit
don't claim to be able to sing
said the man, and l don't want to
sing. | am a stage carpenter. l was
only singing to please YOU. You
seemed so set on it,"
