Truth and Fiction
Compared in Play
Ih its two-part American, "The
Truth of Fiction," .the Sunset has Si
picture that proves delightful. It is
the story of a novelist, played by
Winifred Greenwood, who goes to the
ranch of sortie friends in search of new
material. She finds an abundance of
it and later publishes it as-a novel un
der the title of "The Game of Three."
There are just enough touches of ranch
life to be effective and the element
of romance is skillfully woven in. One
of the. prettiest portions of the picture
is the visionlng of the new story as
it is read by the sweethearts. The loca
tions and settings are unusually artis
tic and the direction and acting are ex
cellent throughout. "Hogan's Aristo
cratic Dream" Is a two-part Keystone
that has some1 tremendously funny
scenes in it and others that are really
very pretty although the film would be
better if it were not so long. The bath
ing scene is neither attractive nor
funny and the film would be better for
its elimination. The bill Is completed
with a two-part Broncho comedy, "A
Case of Poison" that is rather clever
in spots and has one big thrill in the
automobile wreck.
Run Over by. Auto.
When Dewey Wolfer. aged 18, a
dairy hand employed near Linnton,
tried to climb on a motor truck at
Dead Man's curvelon the Linnton road
yesterday afternoon, he was thrown
into the road, and an automobile driven
by J. S. Mann, which was immediately
behind the truck, ran over him. The
lad's injuries are not serious, and he
was taken to the Good Samaritan
hospital by Mr. Mann, who afterward
reported the accident to police headquarters.

The Cunning of Blacky the -Crow.
Now when : Blacky the Crow discov
ered that the eggs in the. old tumble
down nest of Redtail the Hawk in a
lonesome corner of the Green Forest
belonged to : Hooty the Owl and Mrs.
Hooty, he straightway made the best
of resolutions. He would simply for
get all about those eggs. He would
forget that he ever had seen them, and
Tie would stay away from .that corner
"It's all .right," said he at last.
"It'll give my relatives a lot of
, fun."
of the Green Forest. That was a
veryf wise resolution. Of all the people
who live in the Green Forest none is
fiercer or more savage than Hooty the
Owl, unless it Is Mrs. Hooty. She is
bigger than Hooty, and certainly quite
as much to be. feared by the little
people.
All this Blacky knbws. No one
knows it better. And Blacky is not
one to poke his head into trouble with
his eyes open. So he very wisely re
solved to forget all about those eggs.
Now it is one thing to make a resolu
tion and quite another to live up to it,
as you all know. It was easy enough
to say that he would forget, but not
at all easy to forget. It would have
been different if it had been spring or
early summer when there were plenty
of other eggs to be had by any one
smart enough to find them and steal
them. But now when it was still win
ter (such an unheard of time for any
one to have eggs!) and it was hard
work to find enough to keep a hungry
crow's stomach filled, the thought of
those eggs i would keep popping into
his head. He just couldn't seem to
forget them. After a little he didn't
try.
Now Blacky the Crow ia very, very
cunning. He is one of the smartest of
all the little people who fly. No one
can get into more mischief and still
keep out of trouble than can Blacky
the Crow. That is because he uses the
wits in that black head of his. In fact
some people are unkind enough to say
that he spends all his spare time in
planning mischief. The more he
thought of those eggs the more he
wanted them, and it wasn't long he
fore he began to try to plan some way
to get them without risking his own
precious skin.
"I can't do it alone." thought he,
"and yet if I take any one into my
secret 111 have to share those eggs.
That won't do at all, because I want
them myself. I found them and I

ought to have them." Ha quite forgot
or overlooked the fact that those eggs
really belonged ; to Hooty and Mrs.
Hooty and to no one else. "New let
me see, what can I dor .
He thought and he thought and he
thought, and he thought, and little by
little a plan: worked out in his little
black head. Then he chulckled. He
chuckled right out loud, and then hur
riedly looked around to see if any. one
had heard him. 1 No one had, so he
chuckled again. He cocked his head
on one side and half closed his eyes as
if that plan was something he could
see, and he was looking .t it very
hard. Then he cocked his head on "the
other side and did the same! thing. -
"It's all right," said he at (last. "It'll
give my relatives a lot of fun, and of
course they will be very grateful to
me for that It won't hurt Hooty or
Mrs. Hooty a bit. but it jwill ! make
them very angry. They have very
short tempers, and people with' short
tempers usually forget everything else
when they are angry. We'll . pay them
a visit while the sun is bright, be
cause then they cannot see ' well
enough to catch any of us, and we'll
tease them until they lose their tem
pers and forget all about keeping
guard over those eggs. Then I'll slip
in and get one and perhaps both of
them. Without knowing that they are
doing anything of the kind my friends
and relatives will help me to get a
good meal. My, how good those eggs
will taste!" I
It was a very clever and cunning
plan, for Blacky Is a very clever and
cunning rascal, but of course it didn't
deserve success because nothing that
means needless worry and trouble for
others deserves to succeedj j
