The Fastest Cuspidor in the West
Sheriff Deadeye is determined to get the lead role in a motion picture being made in town - even to the extent of wearing a corset to appear thinner.

In "The Silent Spot," Red plays a crotchety old man who hates children, but finds he has been promoted to a store's toy department during the Christmas rush.
