TEXAS OF 1867 IS
SCENE OF NORTH
OF Sc" NEW FILM

Two great marches mark the his
tory of the making of the United
/ States.
The first was the trip of the COW
cred wagons across the plains and
mountains from Missouri to Ore
gon in 1849.
The second, although of equal
Importance, is not so we'll known.
It is the journey of the early Tex
as settlers, driving their cattle from
the ranches in Southern Texas to
the railroad in the north.
It is this latter journey which
forms the theme of North of SO, .
an Irwin Willat production for
Paramount, coming to the Opera
House Wednesday and Thursday,
April Is and 16. The story of
North of &c." adapted by James
Hamilton, appears on the screen as
a faithful perturbation of the epic
story by Emerson Hough, who also
wrote "The Covered Wagon"
The story opens in Texas in 1857
Cattle without number roam the
ranges, but their owners are prac-
tically penniless, for there is no
market for their herds.
Everything looks pretty black
when news comes through that up
north of &c." where a railroad had
been built, the cattle could be sold
at an enormous profit by anyone

swollen streams and hundred and
one other lurking perils.
Taisie Lockhart Uois Wilson, .,
orphan, young, beautiful and hered-
itary chieftainess of one of the
largest and wealthiest lin cattle)
ranges in the Lone Star state, de-
cides to risk the venture and with
her $500 longhorns, 16 COW hands,
lis saddle ponies, ETC., she hits the
trail.
Obstacle after obstacle is placed
in their path. Over every hill a
new and unforeseen menace awaits
them. Day after day they travel in
the scorching sun, across rivers and
over prairies, through timber and
hostile Indian country. North of
So is their cry.
How, after months of 'hardships,
they finally reach the railroad
town and the ultimate results fol-
lowing their arrival will go down
in screen history as thing never
to be forgotten.

players, Jack Holt, Lois Wilson,
Ernest Torrence and Noah Berry,
the cast includes such well-known
players as David Dunbar, Stephen
Carr, Guy oliver, William Carroll,

'FAG|N'
Shoplifter's Mother Instinct
Leads to Her
Capture.

Her cbild's heart flooded with
warming for the toys of other chill
dren, a 15-year-old girl shoplifter
flouted her years Of careful training
Monday night, and her tender impulse
betrayed cher and the Fagin who
schooled her fingers to theft.
Both are in jail.
MAMA cried the mechanical doll
on whose painted face the child Law
ished her love. The dolls cry brought
the attention of sales attendants at
the Piggy Wiggly department store
at Houston and Navarro streets and
arrest.
BLAMED FOR THEFTS.
Police claim the girl and her man
companion are responsible for much
of the shoplifting reported recently.
We've got lots of other things at
home," the girl told officers simply,
when taken to Central Police station.
Hose, sweaters and clothing had
already been stolen by the little fin
gers before the theft of the doll CEN
tered the attention of the crowded
store upon her.
The man accompanying her tried to
prevent the theft of the doll, she said.
DOLL BETRAYS HER.
But the spell of Christmas and the
love in the hungry little heart for
dolly like other girls have were
stronger than the cruel years Of train
ing that had schooled her to adept
ness in shoplifting.
Her fingers thrilled, she said, TO
the touch of the painted face and
blonde eurls of the doll.
And then the mechanical contriv-
ance, inserted in the sawdust body
instead of a heart that might have
returned her love, betrayed her.
Police Tuesday were investigating
the man who trained the child.

Children See Good Show,
Enjoy Selves and Go

Santa Claus was greeted by 800
shouting, clamoring youngsters when
he halted his sleigh at Lions Field at
o'clock Tuesday afternoon. To each
of them, San Antonio's orphans, he
distributed presents of candy, fruits
and toys.
The Lions Clubs Christmas cele-
bration for the orphans was under
way.
The big field had been converted into
veritable Santa Claus headquarters
for the occasion, Christmas tree,
chimney, snow and all. So big was
the job that Santa Claus had to call
ON officers and members Of the Lions
Club to assist in the distribution of
the gifts.
SEE GOOD SHOW.
When all the gifts had been dis
tributed the happy orphans were en-
tertained with a real show put on
by entertainers who had volunteered
their services. This was held on a
specially constructed stage on the
field.
Then began an hour of free enter
tainment when the Riddles were al
lowed to play to their hearts content
on the various apparatus at the field.
The donkeys from the park also were
turned over to them.
GET LONG AUTO RIDE.
As a climax to the afternoons cele-
bration the 800 orphans were taken for
an automobile ride round the South
Loop.
Transportation for the orphans
party was furnished by the A. b. c.
Auto Livery, the Merchants Transfer
company, the White Sightseeing COM
pany and the San Antonio Public
Service company. Barney Phelps, of
the A. b. c., had charge of transport
ing the Riddles to the field.
