(past the first flush of YOUTH as we
had expected (straighten out your
back, PhiD and while the horse re-
mained in embarrassed repose under
the stages spotlight rather than
charge out of a Loew's Fox corner
and canter pell-mell down the aisle
nevertheless Mr.. Barron must have
been more than satisfied as the circus
show began and the long-silent organ
burst forth into popular rhapsody
and a procession of circus performers
marched down the aisle.
''Hurray," said little Willie, in row
3 of the balcony, clutching at his
mothers arm, the circus is back in

beamed and then Santa Claus came
out on bicycle.

snort at the parrot, which has been
taught to say nice things and which
tells the patrons for heavens sakes to

METROPOLITAN PICTURE
HAS INDUSTRIAL PLOT
Barton MacLane Starred in Man
of Iron," Which Shows Ac-
curate Details.
PARToN MacLANE, who has been

PARTON MacLANE, who has been
a very tough hombre and a MUIR
derer of note in several recent motion
pictures, now has been made hero
and a star in one fell swoop, as II
were, but the First National people
did not give him much of a send-of
in his first starring vehicle. 1t is
something named Man of Iron" and
it currently is being displayed at
Warner Bros Metropolitan Theater
Man of Iron" is the story of a shop
superintendent in the steel works who
is suddenly elevated to a general man
agership. whereupon he goes more
than slightly haywire, being led on
by the villain of the piece, a nasty
fellow who wants his job. He almost
wrecks both plant and his career by
allowing this naughty assistant gen.
eral manager to insinuate the wrong
ideas into his head.
After near-riot, however, he
makes up with the men in the shops
goes back to his greasy shirt and his
dirty pants and his drills and lathes
and things and everything comes out
all right. Everything always comes
out all right in such program pictures
though, and they are no end dis
couraging. 1t would be extremely
gratifying some time to see one of
these heroes get what he deserves for
his actions.
But it is not Mr.. MacLane's fault
that Man of Iron" is a rather indif-
ferent and uninSpiring story. He
seems to be just about right as the
uneducated worker who rose too sud-
denly to eminence and lost his bear
ings, drawing fairly accurate picture
of what such a man must be, and
treating the character sympathetically,
so that you hope he will come out on
top in the end. The only trouble is
that you know he will and can't get
very much aroused over his difficult
ties.
John Eldredge and Dorothy Peter
son are the others in important roles.
Mr.. Eldredge doing his usual good job
as the villain of the piece and Miss
Peterson playing naturally as Mac
Lanes wife. William McGann di-
rected.
Man of Iron" has a rather good
ending, with one of the workmen
hanging a hefty crack upon Mr.. FL
dredges kisser, but the film is pretty
long build-up for black-out.

Like the annual citrus fiesta staged BY Mission
and the Valley midwinter Fair, the Harvest Fiesta
nov sponsored by the Junior Chamber Of Commerce
Of Harlingen has an appeal all its own Not that
the idea Of a Harvest Fiesta is anything so unusual
but certainly a Harvest Fiesta the latter part Of May
is something out Of the ordinary.
At the time Of year when the greater part Of the
United states is watching young growth barely out
Of the ground and figuring on a busy summer Of
crop cultivation, the Lower Rio Grande Valley comes
forth and celebrates the elimination Of an 8 months
succession Of winter fruits and vegetables.
Few sections Of the United States can hold Citrus
FieStas. few can hold Midwinter Fairs. and still
fewer can reasonably hold a Harvest Fiesta in May.
The idea Is coed and should result in still more
publicity calling attention Of the United States to
this section where crops grow the year round.

But without any warning the De-
