Tuesday’s feature, which has been
placed below out of respect to that
great serial, is "In the Hills of Ken
tucky." However, this skit is not
lacking in interest. The story follows:
John Shultz, with his son, Don, are
camping in the Kentucky hills when
their camp fire accidentally ignites an
outcropping of coal in the cliff. They
put out the fire and plan to get pos
session of the land before any one
else discovers its value. Old Blazer
Hoadley. a mountain “cracker," directs
them to the owner, young Lase Her
ron, who lives on the mountain with
his pretty wife, Roxie. But Lase and
Roxie are too happy on the old plaw
to sell and the plotters are baffled.
To make matters worse, Old Blazer
discovers the secret and they are com
pelled to bribe and engage him for
a guide.
Balked in his first attempt, Schultz
hatches a devilish plot. He has no
ticed that Roxie was interested in Don
and he proposes for Don to win her
•way from Lase, so that Lase will be
willing to sell. Don's attentions excite
such jealousy from Lase that Roxie
is angered and they quarrel. Matters
get worse with the young couple, but
one day Don exposes his purpose by
kissing Roxie and she breaks with
him. d-afe does not see this, however,
and firmly believes that Roxie is drift
ing away from him. Roxle's brother.
Bill, escapes from prison and strikes
for the hills. He stumbles upon the
Schultz camp, is captured by them
and his identity disclosed. Then
Schultz hatches another infernal plot.
With Blazer's aid, they cleverly man
age that Lase. at a distance, shall see
the meeting between Roxie and Bill,
who is dressed in Don's clothes.
This apparent proof of his wife’3
unfaithfulness almost drives Lase in
sane. He resolves to sell the place and
leave the hills. At the Schultz camp
lie writes a note to Roxie telling her
of his discovery and his resolve, and
giving the note to Blazer to deliver,
he goes with Schultz to a neighbor s
where they get a rig and start for
town to fix up the deed. Blazer can
not resist the temptation to read the
note, but he delivers it to Roxie. As
he Is leaving he peeps Into the window
and sees the grief-stricken'wife reel
to the bureau and take from a drawer
a tiny baby garment and sob over It.
Realizing the terrible tragedy he bat
helped to muke, he rushes in and tells
Roxie the story. Together they hitch
up a horse and drive for town. Mean
while the prison officers find Bill and
not only arrest him, but Don. They
also start for town, and while these
two parties are dashing along the
mountain roads, Schultz and 1-afe are
In the lawyer’s office closing the deal.
Just ns the lawyer ia ready to make
the exchange of deed and cheek be
tween t-afe and Schultz, the door is
opened and Blazer enters with Roxie
and tears up the deed. Then he ex
poses the whole deal. Schultz leaves
and down on the street walks into the
prison officer's arms.
A lucky buy from a stranded manufacturer
enables us to offer values that cannot be duplicat
ed elsewhere. The mammoth business that this
store has done since this shipment of Ready-to-
Wear was received proves that this is an unusual
opportunity.
