What could be . more appropriate
than that Hoscoe Arbucltle's first fea
ture starring vehicle should bo a story
by Irvin S. Cobb? Both are jolly fat
men, and both are nation-wide known.
Mr. Cobb is a regular, writer of short
stories amp humorous articles for the
Saturday livening Post.
"The Lito or the Party," which
opens a four days run at the IUalto
theatre today, appeared in the Post in
January, 1920. Mr. Cobb had a fat
hero in mind when he wrote the yarn,
and "Fatty" Arbuckle fits like a glove
Into the story. It makes a five-reel
feature that is just two and a half
times as funny as any Arbuckle slap
stick comedy ever made and that's
going some!
Viora Daniel is Mr. Arbuckle's lead
ing woman, and the "heavy" role Is
played by one of the screen's most
accomplished "villains," Frank Cam
peau. Vivacious Julia Faye and Wini
fred Greenwood are also included in
the supporting cast. No pains were
spared to make Hoscoe Arbuckle's de
but In full-length pictures a rousing
success.
D. L. SPRINGER BUYS
r OUT GUS, THE TAILOR
D. L. Springer, who has been inter
ested in the City Cleaning Works for
sometime, has sold out and purchased
the business of Clus, the Tailor, and
will continue to conduct a general tail
oring business handling several of the
most papular lines on the market, lie
also makes a specialty of ladies' tail
oring. J. H. Gustine, who has been in- the
tailoring business six years, will re
main in Medford, will look after his
mining properties and fancy chickens.
Annual meetings of commercial or
ganization as a general rule are avoid
ed Ijy a good many member j because
of their aptness to be dry and long-drawn-out.
The annual meeting of
the Medford Chamber of Commerce,
which will be held at eight o'clock
tonight at the public library is going
:o be snappy, interesting, and profit
ably for the members who attend.
During the past year, Medford has
built up a reputation of being the
snappiest city in t-outhern Oregon. It
is an easy matter to continue und even
extend this reputation, but there must
be a uniform effort of all of the citi
zens along a definite line of progress.
The Chamber of Commerce, is the
means through which the leadership
of community can he extended, but
this thought must be crystallized at
meetings, therefore attendance by
members of tho chamber at the an
nual meeting this evening is urged.
FAMOUS CLASSIC IN
"Black Heauty" in motion pictures!
The first feeling the suggestion brings
is one of wonder how it could bo done
how horses could be nmde to enact
the leading roles in a manner which
would make the production in spirit
and fact tho famous Anna Sewell
story on the screen.
As a matter of fact, that was the
simplest part of it, though it required
Infinite patience and perserverence.
Strange as It may seem to many of
the' millions who have delighted in
"lilack Heauty" as a great work of
fiction, there is not a single act of
Hlaek l!eau;y and tho other horses
in the book that is not perfectly nat
ural. A far more difficult matter was to
weave Into the motion picture version
a strongly dramatic story of human
affairs without in any way altering
or detracting from the "Story of Black
Beauty." The "Indoor Story," of
human action and emotion, which
Black Beauty did not see and could
not grasp, was written with great care
and reverent regard Tor Anna Sewell's
immortal work by Mr. and Mrs.
George Randolph Chester.
"Black Beauty" will bo shown at the
Pago theater today and the remainder
of the week.
All tho equine characters in the
book are retained In the screen ver
sion. There is Ginger, the high spirit
ed chestnut mare whose temper had
been spoiled by ill treatment, and who
rights fiercely against brutal, treat
ment by men until soothed by kind
ness and understanding, only to have
her spirit broken utterly by cruel toil
and harsh treatment in later years.
Merrylegs is the same shaggy, good
natured family pony he Is in the book,
while Duchess, Black Beauty's mother,
Sir Oliver, the old hunter; Justice, the
roan cob, all are in truth and verity
tho equine characters Anna Sewell
gave to the world more than forty
years ago.
No one who read the wonderful
story could ever forget the tragic
death of Rob Hoy, Black Beauty's
brother, following that of his rider, the
young heir to Birtwlck Hall; the thril
ling chapter entitled "A Halny Day";
tile hard ride for the doctor to save
Mrs. Gordon's life, or the stablo fire
with Black Beauty's whinny of appeal
culling the terrified Ginger out ot the
flames. All of these events are given
in this film.
