A Goose Worth $4,000

Observation-Disclosures always has
a kind place in his heart for the
antics of trained animals. And some
of the most amazing accomplishments
of the silver screen have been the
reproductions of the stunts" per-
formed by the highly trained ami
mails in moviedom. Among them
"Tony," the beautiful black stallion,
and "Strongheart," the highly in
telligent police dog.
But the supreme accomplishment
has been presented in screen pro-
duction of "The Goose Woman" that
masterful play which has pleased
millions and which is at the Strand
this Thursday. "Enoch" is a large
trained goose who followed Louise
Dresser, the star, everywhere she
went in the picture. He was care
fully trained for the picture, and
obeyed the voice of a keeper out
side the range of vision of the
camera. His intelligence proved al
most uncanny, for he obeyed direc-
tons even more readily than dog.
So important was this goose to the
picture that it was insured for
$4,000 to cover damages should any
accident happen to it before the pic
ture was thru filming. When the
picture was finished "Enoch" was
sent to President Coolidge to add to
the collection of pets he has at the
White House.
Much credit should be given the
Strand management for its new pol
icy of securing recent releases at
such early dates. The Ancient Mar
iner," which was shown Wednesday
and "The Goose Woman" which is
showing today, are both new releases,
and have not even been shown in
Trenton. 1t is certainly to the
Strands credit that they can give
Lambertville and New Hope new
pictures before they reach the CAPT
tol of New Jersey.
