TARZAN, THE WONDER HORSE
Now that horse-racing has fallen into disfavour in most localities, there isn’t the travel among the horse aristocracy that there used to be. In California, however, it keeps up very well, ®wing to the fact that horses—sometimes whole herds of them —are shipped all over the West for use in motion pictures. For “The Unknown Cavalier,” the current Ken Maynard starring picture for First Xational, several car-loads of horses were shipped from Los Angeles to Beatty, Xevada, one of the points of entry to Death Valley, where a number of impressive scenes were taken. To the same point journeyed Tarzan, Ken Maynard’s horse, but in a wellfurnished “horse compartment” on the same train with his master. Irene Rich with her appealing beauty, her gracious charm, and her emotional force, has steadily been increasing her hold upon the public’s affection. A critic on the Xew York “Sun” said -when she* was selected to play the star role in “Lady Winder-* mere’s Fan”: “There is no other screen actress who would be likely to prove as glorious in the role.” In “The Pleasure Buyers,” a Master picture announced for early release, she is at her best as the charming society girl amid exotic Palm Beach surroundings.
