"THE SPOILERS" A PLAY
MOST INTENSELY HUMAN

With a career Of ten months in
New York, as a guarantee of its en-
tertaining qualities, "The Spoilers"
the most intense. the most human,
the most absorbing of dramas put up
on the stage in years, will be present
ed by Henry McRae at the oregon
Sunday night, November T.
Rex Beach, who is just now the
vogue among all American writers,
has been made famous for the world
over by writing this most exciting Of
all dramas, "The Spoilers"
The play was first produced in New
York. where it created nothing short
of a sensation, then it went to Chi
cago, where It had another long sue
cessful run. Manager Frohman,
whose ability to read the wants of the
theater going public, has made him
a millionaire many times over, ar
ranged with the western managers to
send "The Spoilers" direct to Seattle
where it had penomenal run, to ca
pacity business as Seattle was always
a three night, and weak stand. "The
Spoilers" was the first play ever pre-
sented on a Seattle stage that en-
joyed a two weeks run to capacity
business. The success of "The
Spoilers" has not been due to the ex-
ertions of any Of our great actors,
the world wide interest shown in this
play, is due to the boldness of its
story and its fascinating Characters
tic, to people who live in the glor-
ious west; men like the play because
it is real, manly and depicts the un-
conquerable spirit Of the typical
American. Women like it because
the principal feminine characters in
the play show what the real Ameri-
can woman can do when she is put to
the test One cannot fail but like
"The Spoilers" and Oregon theater-
goers have treat in store for them.

JUNIORS ENJOY TRIP
TO REDOND0 BEACH

Dear Aunt Laurie:
l want to tell you that enjoyed the
trip last Friday better than any I've
ever taken. One of the best things was
the beautiful trip down. The next best
thing was that l made friends with
Anna Pellen. We have exchanged let
ters. She writes such dear letters.
L think the roulette wheel was very
attractive, but / liked the plunge best.
My worst disappointment was that 1t
didn't last long enough. l could sit all
day writing about it but I'll close
fearing I'll take too much of your time
reading it. BESSIE CHAPMAN.

Dear Aunt Laurie:
1 was surprised and delighted when
the Junior came and l saw my letter
had won the first prize
L am sorry but won't be able to
go on a trip to Redondo as / live too
far from the city, so l choose the check
for one dollar instead.
1 do not use a street address because
there is no delivery in Ocean Park.
Thanking you for the prize, remain,
your niece, VIRGINIA RAND.
First year high school, Ocean Park.
Dear Aunt Laurie:
we dITlNeu IOiIle at Osl0 dllST SpSlu-
ing a very lovely day at the beach. In
the morning we watched the bathers in
the plunge. At noon Mrs. Schye and
her daughter Edna, mamma and l had
out dinner while the rest went and had
lunch under the trees. While Mrs.
Schye and Edna went to see some
friends mamma and 1 went for stroll.
We saw the big hotel. We went out
on the wharf and saw the big lumber
boat, the Shoshone from San Francisco,
unloading lumber. 1 like to watch the
big boats.
We saw the big rocks back of the
bath house, and when the breakers
would break against the rocks there
would be a beautiful spray.
In the afternoon we went in bathing
and had a lovely time. The water was
SO nice and those fountains looked so
pretty. 1 liked the bathing the most
We did not go on the human roulette
wheel At least they had not when
we left.
Mrs. Writsman and Russell came
home on the same car we did. Thank
you very, very much for the pleasant
trip. 1 enjoyed it more than book,
and will try harder to win book dur
ing school time. Your loving niece,

A FLOWER LEGEND

There once was a fairy who lived all alone
In a tower not made Of timber or stone.
Twas fashioned of violets, and some say lis
true
She lived all her life on honey and dew.
Peeping one day through the window she spied
A lover. who swore he would make her MS
bride.
So pleased was the fairy a sweet kiss she
threw
He caught II, OF course, as true lovers do!
Then a ladder she wove OF her own maiden's
hair ~
And on 1t her lover climbed upward with
care.
He caught up his bride swiftly, they say
ON a fiery horse chestnut galloped away!
