GARDNER GIVES
THRILLING SHOW
IN “RANGE BOSS.”

to be seen at tho Palace theatre
Sunday .
I Reports from the California stu
| dio have it that the professional
cowboys present were shaken with
j suppressed laughter when Director
| W. S VsnDyke informed Mr. GarcV
j lier his role in “The Range Boss”
was to be that of a cowboy. Now
a cowboy, naturally, must he a
hard rider. That is what tickled
the professionals. They figured
that Gardner, who formerly was a
I roadway musical comedy star, and
i had never lived west of New Ro
chelle .didn’t know the saddle from
l he bridle, and would be tossed
about ten feet in the air the first
time he attempted to stride a horse.
“Now we'll see some fun.” the
cowboys whispered up their sleeves,
and they picked out the most vici
ous pinto pony in the corral for
the “tench rfoot.”
Jack, attired in the latest thing
in cowboy togs, came strolling out,
nonchalantly tosod his cigarette to
one side and leaped,upon the little
horse without a word.
Momentarily the horse stood still,
then bracing itself it lunged for
ward, head dowri and rear hoofs
flying high into the air. The en-.
tire company, which had gathered
prepared to see the star flying
through air over the animal's head.
But, lo and behold, Jack sat his
seat like a regular trooper. Iu fact,
he laughed aloud and stuck his
spurs into the little beast's sides
for an “encore.” There followed
a series of buckings and plungings
by the horse which would have
made an extremely difficult scat for
one of the professional cowboys even
' "\Tive_ &ssAj&b?
to have maintained, but Jack stuck
it out with ease.
“THOSE ATHLETIC GIRLS”
FEATURE COMEDY AT
COLISEUM SUNDAY.
Beauty, fun and wholesome en
tertainment are the elements which
make the new Paramount-Mack
Sennett comedy which is to be pre
sented at the Coliseum theatre Sun
day a distinctive creation. The
scene is laid in a boarding school
for girls of which Louis Fazenda,
the athletic and talented Mack Sen
nett comedienne, is the janltress.
She has a husband who has an eye
to female beauty, and it is this
propensity which gets him into
trouble freqnetly,
"BIG TIMER” TONIGHT.
Kathlyn Williams and Wallace
Reid will be seen for the last time
tonight at the Coliseum in "Big

WAR’S EMERGENCIES MET BY
ADVANCING DIAMOND PRICES

How a diamond paid the emergency
• expenses of a soldier’s family is one
of the sidelights of the war, dis
closed through the proposal of dia
mond cutting as one of the highly
paid vocations now open in America
to disabled Yanks.”
Here is the story: A family ac
customed to affluence was strangely
jisrupted wi.en Belgium’s invasion
cent out the call for men to fight
I' Huns: seM enlisted and went
i .seas, a daughter entered war
woik; famib incomes were stopped
and s blue service star was turned to
gold. Heavy exfccenses had to be met
and one remaining diamond had to be
sacrificed. Fortunately, diamonds of
quality are more in demand than be
fore war reduced the supplies and
almost a fabulous sum was realized
from a quick sale in the emergency.
Before the war the jewelry ex
ports of Germany and Austria
amounted to $200,000,000 a year,
leading those of all other countries.
To secure for America a dominant
E'ace in this trade will require a

and uninterrupted growth, even dur
