end.
“If you don’t like that one,” he
said with a smile, “I’ll have anoth-
er tomorrow.”
The writer was a puzzle to the
Hollywood craftsmen, who could not
understand how he was able to
write so much in such a short time
and “always ring the bell,” they
said.
Wallace believed that mystery
stories could be shown on screen
just as the plots are shown in books
and had he lived he would have
been permitted to attempt to dem-
onstrate his plan. Last Friday he
conferred with David O. Selznick, in
charge of productions at Radio Pic-
tures, and ot was decided the writer
would direct some of his plays.

Last season Lionel Atwill, well
known stage star, scored a big suc-
cess on Broadway in the stage pro-
duction, ’’The Silent Witness.” To-
day at the Grand theater Mr. At-
will repeated the success in the
Fox Film’s version of that power-
ful mystery drama.
Mr. Atwill plays the role of a
proud and sacrificing father, who
faces the gallows to protect his son
from a penalty of murder, in which
the boy has become involved. His
performance is not only sincere but
inspiring as well and one that will
cause everyone who sees the picture
to want to see Mr. Atwill in another
picture as soon as possible. Miss
Greta Nissen plays a most impor-
tant part in the film and is well lik-
•ed by every one. This is the first
time we have seen her in a sym-
pathetic role. The other attractions
To Eat Ninetieth
Birthday Dinner
On Coffin Table
MINERAL WELLS, Texas, Feb.
10 (AP).—Albert Schnocke eccen-
tric Tex. hermit, expects to eat his
ninetieth birthday dinner soon
from dishes spread on his own
coffin. It will be nothing new to
him however, for he has been us-
ing the coffin as a dining table
for eight years.
Schnocke, was a Union veteran
of the Civil War, was born in
France in 1842, but has lived near
Perrin, in Jack County, for nearly
sixty years. Eight 8 ago bought
a coffin in Perrin and rode
back home on it. Since then it
has reposed in a box in his one-
room house, in a corner opposite
his bed.
One end is stacked with canned
goods and the other serves, as a
dining table. Schnocke displays no
hesitation in explaining the cof-
fin’s ultimate use and appears
rather proud of it.
