MISSING DAUGHTER
LOCATED IN UTAH
Cobb County Girl Sought Far
and Wide

Atlanta, July 28-Mysteriously miss
ing for two weeks, Orlando Awtrey,
of Acworth, one of the best knows
citizens OF Cobb county, has just heard
from his daughter, Miss Lynette Aw-
try, in Ogden, Utah.
Miss Awtry returned from Europe
about two weeks ago and wired her
father from New York to send her
money on which to return home. He
sent her 5000 and later received a mes
sage to meet her at the train in At
lanta. Her trunk came but not Miss
Awtrey. Mr.. Awtrey then began ]
search for his daughter, but found NJ
clew until a telegram came yesterday
from Ogden, Utah, signed "Lynette.
This telegram asked that she be sent
money on which to return home. Il
stated she was sorry she had left, but
could not explain until she reached
home. Mr. Awtrey Immediately wired
his daughter money and ticket to
Acworth, and arranged to have her
met by one of her brothers on the
way
Early in June Miss Awtrey went t.
Europe with a party of young ladies,
conducted by a friend who lives in
Marietta. In the midst of the trip
she became homesick and finally de-
cided to return home.
Friends of the young lady in Cobh
county declare they have no idea what
caused her to run away to Utah. \
love affair and an elopement have been
suggested, but there is no tangible
evidence back OF the rumor. Relatives
searched New York for her when she
failed to return home on time, and de-
tectives were put ON the case.

JAPAN HAS MADE NO
REPLY TOILAST NOTE
Administration Hopeful Of
Early Adjustment

Washington, D. c., July 29.-Admin
istration officials here are disposed to
take an optimistic view of the neg J.
tiations with Japan arising from he
protest against the California anti
alien land law and believe that CON-
plete understanding almost is in sight
While there may be another inter-
change of notes administration officials
feel that the diplomatic correspon-
dence so far has established the
Ifriendliness of the United States gov
eminent for Japan and the absence OF
intent upon its part to discriminate
against Japanese.
Though nearly two weeks have ex
pred since the delivery to Ambassador
Chinda of the American reply to the
last Japanese note no intimation has
reached Washington of a purpose OH
the part of the Japanese foreign off1c,
to continue correspondence.
The administration is resting in tie
hope that it's last procurement on
the subject has satisfied the Japanese
government of two facts of import
ance: that there has actually been no
violation of the treaty rights of the
japanese by the alien lang legislation,
and that recourse must be had to the
courts to determine the question OF
the effect of the Webb law upon sucn
broad rights and privileges as the jap
anese are granted by international Law
and comfy.
It is believed here that the entire
attention of the Japanese Office is at
present absorbed by the critical condi-
ton in nearby China which might in
fuence the Japanese government to at
least suspend the negotiations with tn J
United States until a test case has been
tried to conclusion in California
some time after August 10, when the
anti-alien land law becomes effective.

biggest real estate deals and one in
dicating the progress of realty values
in this city has just been closed in

ker but now in Portland, sold the lot

Blackburn of lower Powder, who Sc
cured the property as an investment
and will not interfere with the busi-
ness of the Grace & Dobinson Drug
company. which will continue business
there as usual. The sale was made
through Baker real estate firm.
The lot has a frontage of 25 feet
and is 100 feet deep. 1t was pur-
chased by Mr.. Grace when he was
in business here several years ago

that Baker values are steadily ad-
vancing and that people near at home

GOLD LACE WILL BE LESS IN
EVIDENCE AT WHITE HOUSE,

Washington, March S.-There WIFI
be marked reduction in the am
cunt of gold lace to be seen around
the White House during the present
administration if President Wilson
carries out his plan to reduce the
number of military aides which have
attended the two former presidents.
1t became known that Major Thorn
as l.. Rhoads, U. S. A, who was mill
tary aide and medical adviser to Pres
ident Taft, had recommended that the
present corps of IL OFFICERS of the
army. navy and marine corps be cut
in half. Furthermore, President Will
son probably will dispense with the
presence of a uniformed aide in his
travels about the country.
The present system of personal
military staff at the White House was
created by Roosevelt and continued
by President Taft.
Major Archibald w. Butt, who lost
his life in the Titanic disaster, was re-
sponsible for establishing the prece-
dent of wearing full dress uniform
while accompanying both former pres,
idents. He felt that, as he was or
duty, he should conform to the reg
ulations and appear in uniform. Hii
understanding of the regulations was
accepted by his brother officers or
duty at the White House.

''SALMON DAY"
TO Be OBSERVED

Friday, March IA, 1918, is to be
generally observed in Oregon and
Washington, on all the railroad and
steamship lines operating into and
through these states, throughout Cal
ifornia, the middle west and the east
as Salmon Day" Each patron of
the dining car will be served a por-
ton of salmon free of charge, the
leading hotels and restaurants will
feature salmon as the pYece de resist
ance and the grocers will have spe-
cial window displays of the canned
fish which is conceded to be not only
one of the cheapest but one of the
most palatable products of the coun-
try.
The object of the observance is to
interest the people of the Country al
large in salmon as a food product
United States Bulletin 142 shows rel
ative food value of canned salmon as
compared with other foods to be as
follows:
Canned salmon. .21S; sirloin steak
.165; sugar cured ham, .142; macaro-
nj. .134; eggs. .1S1; spring chicken
.12O; white bread, 09o.
The cost of salmon is from one
half to one third less than the cost
of meat or poultry.
The industry gives employment to
thousands and more than $4,000, ,O0O
is paid annually for labor in the fish
cries along the Oregon, Washington
and Alaskan coasts.
The leading commercial organiza-
tions will partake of specially pre-
pared dishes of the canned produc-
ton salmon day, and the people in
general are asked to observe it, in
recognition of its Importance as one
of the great industries of the Pacific
northwest.

Comment on the
g FILMS q

Educational films which were shown
during the week deserve special men
ton. "The CHAMELEON" and Making
of Hats" Pathe offering at the Or
pheum, were instructive and interest
ing. "The Part Played by Air in
Respiration" and "The Genet" c. G.
P. C. film at the Pastime were among
the best of their kind shown here.
Films of this description are a de-
lightful respite from love stories with
which the market seems to be flood
ed.
Owen Moore is always good. In
THE Hypocrite," which showed at the
Cosy this popular actor was at his
best.
"The Upton Cup" at the Pastime,
was good offering. The famous
sportsman. Sir Thomas Upton was
shown and if for no other reason than
getting a sight of this international
character. this film was decidedly
worth seeing.
showed at the Pastime on Sunday
was poor subject. 1t is a film of
this nature that leads the young mind
to do things in emulation of the pic
pictures and which always end in
some disastrous way.
"a Tale of Old Tahiti" was the
feature of the week at the Orpheum.
The photography was excellent but
the story seemed to be too full of de-
tail and not enough action. 1t might
have been better told in one reel.
The big 101 Bison release. "a
Frontier Providence" which showed
at the Cosy on Tuesday, was sensa-
tional picture. The fight between the
white men and the Indians was par
ticularly well carried out.
Between Life and Death was a
picture little out of the ordinary.
1t attracted good audiences at the
Cosy the middle of the week. The
film was made by the Ambrosio COM
pany, the makers of some of the big
BeSI ScllSdllOilS III the lllHl WOTIU.
Manager Cooper certainly secured a
good release when he got this picture.
'The Lady Barber of Roaring
Gulch" was a comedy of real merit at
the Cosy. The fun was we'll sustained
and there was nothing that appeared
forced or strained in order to produce
laugh.
THE Prosecuting Attorney at the
Pastime was one of the best stories
told in some while. The Kalem peo-
pie apparently appreciate good story
and spare no efforts to product it so
that it will lose none of it's flavor.
Guy Combs took the part of the at
torney and took it well. Alice Hollis
ter acted the wife.

tainly a good comedy. Flora Finch
