GONE years ago young Indian
- apolis man decided to leave the
old home town for the west coast.
He felt that his usefulness in his
chosen work was limited here.
So Lester Horton, who dreamed OF
being a designer, a dancer, a pro-
ducer and about everything else that
has TO do with the dance, left Indi-
annapolis for Los Angeles and Holly
wood.
He had no money. but he had the
friendship of Mrs. w. o. Bates, then
one of the leaders in the Civic thea
ter which gave its performances in
the auditorium of the Masonic
Temple on Illinois street.
For years Mr.. Horton labored to
build sets, make costumes and the
like for these productions as well
as for Mrs. Bates open air produc-
ton of "Hiawatha."
When the fame of "Hiawatha"
started to spread, Mrs. Bates took
"Hiawatha" and Mr.. Horton, who
often played the title role here, to
Los Angeles.

MIR. HORTON designed many of
WI the costumes and aided in the
lighting effects used at night. 1 have

in the winter studying Indian art
costumes and Indian dances.

ures OF the state income tax depart
ment today.
Total taxes paid on income for

Clarence Jackson. gross income

when It is considered that returns
OF the second period number some
400 less than the total filed for the
first period.
The average rate of tax under
the gross income tax law during
1888 was 81 of 1 per cent, Mr.. Jack
son said. Applying the 1888 average

create what he called the native
American dance.
When Mrs. Bates returned in tri-
umph to this city, Mr.. Horton
stayed on the coast. He didn't care
whether he went hungry or sat
down to a banquet because he was
always dreaming.
Today his dream has come true
and he is an acknowledged success as
producing director of the California
Ballet Company which is giving a
marvellous series of ballet roper
torres at the huge Shrine Auditor
ium in Los Angeles.
MIR. HORTON has not written
1V1 me of his success but the west
coast papers are giving him a lot of
space and lot of credit.
A few days ago. The San Francis
co News, a Scripps- Howard news
paper, printed more proof of his
great success.
