'J'HE high cost of living holds no terror for Harry Carey, noted Universal Western actor, as he now is the proud possessor of a ranch at Newhall, some twenty miles north of Universal City. He motors back and forth and during the time when he is not engaged before the camera the delineator of cowboy roles may be seen behind the plow or working in his potato and onion gardens. "They may be able to charge me high prices for a few things, but out here on this ranch," said the actor. "I am raising practically everything I need for my table and the first time I strike an oil well I'll make my own gasoline, too." However, it has been disclosed by Fred A. Kelsey, his director, that Carey's ranch hands do most of the work, as a great deal of the actor's time is occupied in entertaining the many friends who motor out to the ranch for week ends. Carey declares, however, that he intends to dismiss the ranch hands and make his guests plow and hoe instead of merely sleeping and eating when they spend the time at "Careyville," as he calls his ranch. Carey appears on this week's program in "The Golden Bullet." " ■■IM , ^ \mms>m "HIS FATAL BEAUTY." Joker Comedy. Story and scenario by Jack Cunningham— Produced by W. W. Beaudine. CAST.
