“Gas, Oil and Water” provided pop
nt the Palace Theater last night when
Charles Ray presented Ills latest fea
ture. lie is on tonight for the last
time.
llo has retained all the usual com
edy that has made him distinctive in
Ills Work and has added swift-moving
action. The locale is the Mexican
border, torrid and sun ridden, where
a gang of up-to-date border runners
with automobiles operate. v
llay has. to some measure, offered
an automotive show in his latest fea
ture, for if there are any more me-!
(Hums of locomotion that could he
conceived, we have still to hear of
them. There are automobiles, motor
cycles, bicycles, - aeroplanhs and tour
ing cars that race around ’’in sensa
tional pursuit of each other.
The star mingles delightful love
scenes, comedy touches and rural
portrayals In his evolution of the plot
to capture the border smugglers. An
aged, tightWad hotel proprietor, who
spanks in words of one syllable and
never more 'than two words at a
time, is a brilliant addition to the
cast.
Charlotte Pierce makes a winsome

ever say.

where ho had no right to be at all.
and jumped right in. i the top of
one of the big boots I wear, and
there he stuck headforemost with bis
hind-legs and curly tail wig-wagging
from tlie top near my knee.
"Of course, it frightened me. out of
several years' growth and broke up
the scene, 'besides ruining a perfectly
good stocking. ‘PolkaJdot’ was after
that milk bottle and concluded I was
hiding it in my boot.
“S.nm> day, I’m convinced, there’s
going to lie some little pig sausag’
around this studio, and ‘Polka-Dot’
will be missing from the cast.”
