" 'ITS A BE ART With Taylor Holmes, at tho Empire Sunday Evening Cast: Orlando Winthrop Taylor Holmes School Teacher Vivian Reed William Cogney..... .Howard Davies An Old Flame of Cogney's Edna Philips Holmes The Bear, "Bessie" The Winthrops, Bostonians, derive their income from sheep ranches in the West. Their son, Orlando, devotes all his time to his hobby, entomology. Word is received that Cogney, the ranch foreman, is jeopardizing the property. Armed with new-found determination, Orlando, the supposed idler and waster, bids his amazed fiancee and parents farewell and goes West to the ranch, where he is received with laughter and jeers. | Belle Waylay, proprietress of the I Blue Chip saloon, advises Cogney to get rid of Orlando by stringing him. But it can't be done. At poker he outbluffs the bluffer: out-drinks the j ' drinkers, and out-rides the riders^ i In a final attempt to outwit Orlando, Cogney takes him on a fake bearhunt. But Orlando turns the tables and brings back a live bear instead of the stuffed one. Now desperate, Cogney hires two cowpunchers to destroy the Winthrops sheep. Warned jof the plot by a friend Orlando catches (the thieves red handed. Then ensues ja fight with Cogney, and Orlando's colorless fiancee, who "hates successful" men, arrives in the West just in time to see her proposed husband whip the foreman. When he bites off a big hunk of "eatin'" tobacco, shocked and disgusted she immediately leaves, much to Orlando's relief. For he has found a girl who loves successful men.
