The inimitable Jackie Coogan
triumphs again on the screen in
his latest motion picture,
"Peck's Bad Boy," at the Dixie
[Theatre August 1st and 2nd. It
is released by Associated First
: National Pictures, Inc.
The six-year-old youngster
demonstrates in this latest, pro-
duction that he is a born actor
and that he merits the distinct-
ion of being starred in spite of
his extreme youth.
As "Peck's Bat! Boy" .Jackie
is, to the life, the mischievious
youngster who gets into a var-
ied assortment of boyish scrapes.
His ingenious scheme to see the
circus, his playfulness which re-
sults in the escape of a lion, the
uproar he causes in church by
introducing a novelty in the way
of several hundred ants which
takes a liking to his father, and
the part he plays in a love af-
fair are some of the high-lights
in this delightful refreshing
photo play. The sub-titles which
were written by Irvin S. Cobb,
are delicious in their humor]
the photography is excellent,
and the work of the entire cast
admirable.
Doris May plays the role <>f
the girl in the case, while
.Wheeler Oakman portrays the
man. James Corrigan is seen
as Mr. Peck and Lillian Leigh-
ton as Mrs. Peyk. Raymon:!
j As stated in another column
of this paper, conditions make
it necessary that the expense
attached to the motion picture
show business in this town be
confined to a GET-BY-FIGURE
and beginning next week and
continuing until Nov. 1st, Mr.
Max Lea 1 h will be associated
with me in the Theatre now op-
erated by me.
I solicit on behalf of Mr.
Leath and myself a continua-
tion of oyur liberal patronage,
and assure you that we will put
{forth our best efforts to give
you good clean, entertaining
pictures.
I cannot please all the people
all the time, but will do my best.
I cannot show all the good pic-
tures hut will do i.iy best to see
that all I show are good.
I had been considering dis-
continuing the good music that
has been furnished at the Dixie,
but will now try to continue it
as I know the public appreciates
it.
In the near future I shall
make an effort to sell you tick-
ets for less money on my regu-
lar program and when T have a
special good picture let you pay
me an extra dime for it, and
just as soon as adjustments can
i be made I am going to do this.
1 also wish to say that there is
some .other improvements that 1
am going to make soon, which
will take the quiver out of the
'picture and give Bastrop a show
;second to no other town this
size. It will take your co-oper-
ation to do it and I am going to
[depend upon you. I know you
will appreciate my efforts to
give you the best show that
Bastrop has ever had.

Friday, July 2a, about 100
persons were gathered at this
beautiful place to enjoy the
thrills and pleasures of a day
"in the open." In addition to
the neighborhood people there
were a large number from Bas-
jtrop in attendance.
The picnic spread, at the noon
| hour, furnished a bountiful help-
ing of barbecued meats, fried
chicken, relishes, salads, cakes
land pies, coffee and iced tea. All
enjoyed the many good things
| provided.
The Hills Prairie people cer-
Itaiilly know how to entertain;
, and on this occasion nothing
iwas left undone that would add
to the comfort and pleasure of
their guests. Better than the
beauty of the place, better than
the bounty of the spread, was
the splendid spirit of hospitality
that was evidenced on every
hand. By those whose privilege
it was to be at this picnic, the
day will be long remembered as
one of the most enjoyable.
date to call on him at Austin
and secure from him sufficient
data to write an intelligent ar-
ticle.
The lignite operators of the
Rockdale territory were present
to hear the discussion. It was
jpalin and very conservative.
| Eevery detail showed very con-
clusively that Dr. Schock has
'succeeded in working out infor-
mation that will prove of un-
; told value to the lignite fields
j of Texas.
I Dr. Schock was entertained
at luncheon at Bastrop Inn by
, the mine operators of the Bas-
trop lignite field.
