Insults His Dop
So Writes n Rook
Harry Leon Wilson’s bulldog was
directly responsible for the creation
of the famous ’’Ruggles of Red Gap.”
It occurred in this fashion:
After completing one ot his nu
merous novels, Mr. Wilson decided
upon a European vacation and an
opportunity to secure material for
another story. His bulldog, of course,
was to accompany him. In fact he
never went anywhere without his
pet.
Nothing worthy of mention Imp
pencil until they made port in Eng
land—ami then—
Officials refused to permit the dog
ashore unless it was put into quar
antine for several weeks. If at the
end of this period It showed no signs
of rabies it would be allowed to ac
company Mr. Wilson, he was told.
"Cheerio.” said Mr. Wilson. "We’re
going back home.”
And they did.
And in his cabin on the way back
yir. Wilson brought "Ruggles of Red
Gap" into being.
Ruggles is an English valet who
is won In a game of poker In Paris
by a westerner and brought home to
America. His transformation from
a British subject makes on# of the
funniest Paramount Pictures ever
screened.
James Cruze, the man who pro
duced "The Covered Wagon" for
Paramount, wields the megaphone.
The featured players are Edward Hor
ton, Ernest Torrence. Lois Wilson.
Fritzi Ridgway, Charles Ogle and
Louise Dresser.
Rill Hart Returns.
Hill Hart, probably moat fanout of
i ho nm*en “two-gun” men. has romo
t.ack to the fans In a new triumph
in "Wild Bill Hickok.” according to
advance reviews of the film.
The story is of Dodge City, Kan.,
in the days of Wild Bill Hickok, Bat
Masterson. Wyatt Earp and other ear
ly day characters. The scenes of
Wild Bill's meeting with Abrahain
Lincoln, Gen. George Custer and Phil
Sheridan are all pictured The most
famous of all frontier fights, "The
Fight at the Water Barrels" at Dodge
City, has been filmed with exact
ness and enough action to give the
hardiest thrill lover a chill.

it looked like, didn't come rigjjt off:
Afterward we heard that this last

she wanted to work that way, hut

Just a Little Love.
Some of you birds who go to the
picture show and see some handsome
duck giving a long and lingering kiss
to some benutiful lady probably close
your eves and sigh and groan, "Oh,
gee! X wish that was me!” And if
you feel that way about it, you ought
to hd»n been out to Warner's empori
um the other morning, on Ernst I.u
bttseh's "Marriage Circle” set and
watched Creighton Hale kiss Florence
Vidor.
Now you wouldn't think that It
was a punishment or anything like
that, to get paid for kissing Florence
Vidor, would you? And neither did
Creighton, when he started out. And
there isn't anything to indicate that
Florence thought she was abused
when she had to hi«* Creighton—
when they stalled out. And so llrnst
had them rehearse it about eight
times, and the first eight kisses
seemed to be very satisfactory all
around.
Then they turned on the lights and
started the cameras and they started
kissing in earnest, and every time
something went wrong. We sat there
for an hour and 10 minutes and
watched 39 kisses before they finally
got the siene right ,and along about
the 25th kiss you could see that every
time Florence had a kiss coming she
wanted to scream, and Creighton was
so darned mad he couldn’t hardly see,
and by the time they finally got
through the 39th kiss they were both
so doggone sore at each other that
