Newspaper Pays Sum
For Mountain Lions
DENVER, Feb. 5.—More than 15,
300 deer in Colorado have been saved
as the result of a bounty placed on
mountain lions offered by the Denver
Post during the last five years.
The bounty system, which grants
(he killer $25 for each, adult lion and
$10 for each "lion cub, was inaugurat
ed five years ago in ihe interest of
game protection. Sportsmen esti
mate that each mountain lion kills
and consumes on the average of fifty
(leer each year and the Denver news
paper’s campaign lias resulted in the
paying of five thousand dollars in
bounties since 1920. This ligurc icp
i-sents ovoi three hundred lions, adult
and cun
While the bounty system was in
tended primarily as game protection,
it has resulted in a great saving of
stockmen, who claim that the aver
age grown lion commits depredations
to cattle and horses each year to the
amount of $500.
The bounty is paid upon submission
to the newspaper management ol the
pelt of the animal and an accompany
ing statement that the animal was
slain within the boundaries of the
state.
The Post bounty system, together
with the work of the predatory game
hunters of the United States bilogical
survey is leading rapidly to the ex
termination of the greatest destroyer
of game and range cattle in the coun
try.

'barthelmess introduces
NEW HERO TO SCREEN
Ever hear of a motion picture hero
who engages in a duel and loses it?
—who participates in a death grap
ple with the other fellow and does
not “get” his man, though the latter
drops dead from heart failure?—who
makes love to a beautiful woman and
at the same time remains true to his
real sweetheart—and who, despite
all these things, stilt remains a hero?)
We guess not? And yet this is
! the entirely different sort of hero j
that Richard Barthelmess is intro- !
ducing on the screen tonight at the l
LIBERTY THEATRE in his delinea
tion of Charles Abbott in “The Bright
Shawl,” the John S. Robertson pro
duction adapted from Joseph Hergesli
heimer’s gripping romance of Cuba, in
the days before it overthrew the yoke
of Spanish tyranny.
Barthelmess, if all reports are to be
believed, is a mighty convincing and
j realistic hero at that. Also, a very
much beloved one.
And as the young American who
has thrown himself in on the side of
the Cuban rebels, he is mightily ad
mired for his tremendous courage and
audacity even by the officers of the
Spanish crown, despite the fact that
he is a novice as a swordsman.
Romance? He falls in love with
the fairest daughter of a fine Cuban
family; but he also pretends to be
infatuated with a beautiful Spanish
dancer—to gain valuable information
for the rebels.
Fight? , He crosses swords with
the most expert swordsman in Cuba
fights until he drops from utter ex
haustion, and is so greatly respected
by his enemy that his life is saved.
As a photodrama “THE BRIGHT
SHAWL” presented by Inspiration
Pictures, Inc., through Associated
First National Pictures, will eclipse
even the popularity the story achiev
ed in magazine and book.
NEW ARMY PLANE CARRIES
EIGHT PATIENTS AND DOCTOR
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 5.—The U.
S. army is extending its air ambu
lance service and has designed a
plane that will carry at least eight
patients and a surgeon and pilot, it

sent an aerial ambulance that will
