“LONE COWBOY” STARS
“SKIPPY”
“Lone Cowboy,” the story of a
killer’s regeneration through the
love of a child, which has tow-head
ed Jackie Cooper of “Skippy” fame
as the star, is coming on Saturday
to the Roosevelt Theatre.
In addition to young Cooper, the
picture, which was directed by Paul
Sloane from his own original story,
suggested by Will James’ famous
book, features Lila Lee, Addison
Richards, John Wray and Gavin Gor
don.
It tells the story of Scooter U -
Neal, played by Jackie, who is lifted
suddenly from his tenement home in
Chicngo to the wide open spaces of
Nevada.
Here he is reluctantly accepted by
a hardened killer who wants "no kid
hanging around.”
With characteristic child-like in
nocence, Scooter tries to prevent a
murder almost at the cost of his own
life and wins himself a life-long
place in the heart of the man who
has learned to love him.

Work—
For the joy of the working it

GOD MADE A GARDEN
God made a garden to rest His eyes
After the space of earth and skies;
God made a garden to rest His heart,
Where He might walk sometimes
apart.
God made a garden because He saw
Life was good by a garden’s law;
Flowers for love and fruitful trees,
Soul and body may grow with these.
God made a garden because He knew
There must be work for His sons to
do;
Berries to gather, keep mischief out,
And a swinging vine is no place for
doubt.
God made a garden just to find
Another way to be loving—kind
And the things we see in the garden
row
Are the words He has written to tell
us so.
LITTLE THINKS
He stopped to pat a small dog’s head
A tiny things to do;
And yet, the dog, remembering,
Was glad the whole day through.
He gave a rose into the hand
Of one who loved it much;
’Twas just a rose—but, oh, the joy
That lay in its soft touch!
He spoke a word so tenderly—
A word’s a wee, small thing;
And yet, it stirred a weary heart
To hope again, and sing!
—Lois Snelling in “Boys Life.”
WATCH YOUR STEP, OLD MAN!

It’s his part in the game to play like

Such wonderful autumn weather
as we have been enjoying. Forests
in all their supernal glory—
“A haze on the far horizon,
The infinite, tender sky,
The ripe rich tints of the cornfield,
And the wild geese sailing high,
And all over upland and lowland
The charm of the goldenrod
Some men call it autumn,
But others call it God.”

PLAY AUTHOR EXPLAINS
HOW “3-CORNERED MOON”
GOT ITS STRANGE NAME
Forgot To Explain Title Due to Re
hearsal Rush; Asks Producer to
Put Reason in Movie; Three-Star
Cast.
How the play, “Three-Cornered
Moon” got its title, was explained by
the author, Gertrude Tonkonogy,
when B. P. Schulberg selected it as
a starring vehicle for Claudette Col
bert, Richard Arlen and Mary Bo
land.
It has been made into a rollicking
Paiamount screen comedy and can
now be seen at the Roosevelt Thea
tre Monday.
“During stage rehearsals, every
one was so busy we didn’t think
much of a title,” she admitted. Fin
ally one night the crazy suggestion
of a three-cornered moon came to
me. W T e decided to call it that and
intended to write a line into the
script to explain what it meant,”
Miss Tonkonogy said. “But we were
so busy we completely forgot all a
bout it. So the show opened with
its curious title unexplained.”
While talking to Mr. Schulberg,
she asked him to explain the title in
the film.
Schulberg’s explanation is this:
In the picture the Rimplegars, the
typical American family, lose all
their fortune in the stock market on
stock “Ma” Rimplegar bought and
on which she forgot to pay margin,
just one of her irresponsible tricks.
So the fatal stock was named
“Three-Cornered Moon.”
In addition to the three stars,
“Three-Cornered Moon” has a dis
tinguished supporting cast includ
ing Wallace Ford, Lyda Roberti, Tom
Brown, Joan Marsh, Hardie Al
bright and William Bakewell. It was
directed by Elliott Nugent.
