In Cupid's Role

Those who have seen j. Farrell
Macdonald as the redoubtable
Corporal Casey" in "The Iron
Horse" win probably not be able
to visualize him in the role of Gu
pid-but that is just what he turns
out to be in Tom Mix's new pic
ture, ''The Lucky Horseshoe" in
which he takes the part of Toms
right hand han.
Now, off the stage, J. Farrell
admits that the opposite sex is a
puzzle to him, but in the picture
be knows all about wimmen'
and insists on advising Tom in his
love affairs, going always on the
theory that faint heart meier won
fair lady"
In the first part Of the story j.
FArrell is just one of the cow
hands. even though a privileged
one, but later, when Tom dreams
he is Don Juan, j. Farrell is the
faithful Pancho, who rides be-
hind his master with a culver Of
arrows strapped to his back.
Throughout the picture J. Far
rell's comedy goes to relieve the
tcnseness Of the story. 1t is of
the kind that win create new

cause Of its spontaniety, and the
clever way it is put over.
