THE PANsIEs FRIEND

Two young sngs, one fine spring
day,
Came slowly crawling on their
way.
Said one, bets see how pansies
taste,
Bestir yourself and come in haste,
These giant blooms just suit my
mind
I'M take the finest | can find.
just then there came from bush
and brake,
A little striped garter snake.
| saw their judgment day arrive,
The garter swallowed tfem alive.
Then away 10 rest aud wait
Another day, another bait.
| hope for MY dear gardens sake
lie had no twiuge Of tummy ache
Between him and my garden hoe
My pansies have a chance 10 grow.
The garter snake never kill
But let him range around our Hill.
And now I've learned that car
wigs too
Are gladly found in his menu.

 HOOT GIBSON IN COMEDY AT PALACE


 If you enjoy action-fast and furious-if you like comedy when it's funny, and moreover, if you are one of the many million fans of that popular star, Hoot Gibson don't miss seeing "The Buckaro Kid" the Universal-Jewel produc- tion which is the present feature attraction at the Palace Theatre
 Taken from a short story by Peter B. Kyne, the popular author of the "Cappy Kicks" stories, "The Buckaroo Kid" presents something new in Westerns. ' Gibson is found. in new locale for large part of the story then returns to his usual cinema habi- tat, the Western ranch.
 If someone has promised to do something quite unpleasant to you. and you are dead certain that he is going to do 1t whether or no, it is not much comfort to reflect that he will be arrested for it afterward.
 That is the quite reasonable as sumption upon which the climax of this novel picture is built and proves to be most exciting and amusing one. Of course, the un- pleasant threat isn't quite carried out and everything comes cut to the general satisfaction of every one concerned.
 Ethel Shannon, Burr Mcintosh, James Gordon, Charles Colby Clark Comstock, Harry Todd, Newton House and others play the more prominent roles in sup port of the star.
