AT The GEM TODAY

"The Chalice of Courage" Every
thing you can imagine of sublime seem
cry, of wonderful Photographic depth,
of vast, glorious, infinite beauty, may
be applied to the scenic element in this
blue ribbon production.
All that you may conceive of'passion-
ate, human longing, of great self-sacri-
fee, and of all things close and dear,
will shrink to infnitesimal proportions
when you view this awe inspiring, most
intense of picture play productions.
We have learned that some people
have enormously classed this feature
as western. This is not a west
ern, as the term is applied to motion
pictures. The story opens on the west
ern frontier, and is then carried into
the homes, and depicts the lives of well
to do people. There are no Indians,
battles, or rough riding scenes of law
lessness in this feature. The western
settings lend most glorious scenes to
the production. 80
Monday and Tuesday
Owing to the popularity of that
greatest of all serials, "Neal of the
Navy" the management of the Gem
was unable to show it Monday and
Tuesday, Nov. 20 and 80, but it will
positively be shown Dec. 6 and Z. Fol-
lowing telegram is self explanatory:
Portland, Ore 1t will be impossible
to give you "Neal of Navy" Monday
and Tuesday, 20 and 80. Have tried all
day get you another copy but without
success. Are shipping you good six
reel program for Monday and Tuesday
without charge of paper and heralds.
Leave tonight. Letter follows. Pathe
Exchange"
Neal of the Navy is considered one
of the strongest and best serials ever
produced and is showing continually to
millions of pleased photOplay fans. 1t
deals with the adventures that befall a
young naval lieutenant in the U. s.
navy and thrilling scenes are shown of
U. S. fleet in action. Shown every
Monday and Tuesday at Gem theatre
beginning Dec. 6 and Z.
Wednesday and Thursday
George Barr McCutcheon's "Grau-
stark" featuring Bryant Washburn,
Ernest .Maupain, Francis X. Bushman
and Edna Mayo.
You have all read this thrilling dra-
matte novel of McCutcheon' Not one
bit of the action is lost in the six reel
Essanay photoplay. In fact, II is bet
tered. Come and see your old favorite
at the Gem.

WhistIing
Through Life.

This world is full of queer peo-
pie, and it has been our fortune
to bump up against a few OF
them, to our sorrow.
Most people hereabouts take
this paper and pay for it.
They do it not as a duty, but
because they know they simply
can not get along without their
home paper.
The editor never whistles for
their money, he gets it.
But there is another class,
some class" to 'em, too.
They take the paper regularly,
are the first to read it, profit by
the many opportunities offered in
its columns, and forget to pay
for it.
They just let the editor whis-
tie, and keep on whistling.
If he needs the money, he can
whistle for it.
If he has bills to meet, he can
pay them in whistles.
So far as they are concerned,
the editor can 60 and whistle
himself to glory.
Yes, they get the paper, and
the editor whistles for his dough.
But, then, editors are cheer
full whistlers, and they'll prob
ably find a whistling corner
tucked away somewhere in

He should encourage the far

It has been demonstrated re.

that farmers can buy as cheaply
from the local dealer. as they can
from a foreign house.
But the foreign dealer floods
the farmer with advertising mat

And the farmer is a wise one,
he takes nothing on faith.

all to think a little, to get to-

ments inaugurated from year to

Why do you want to see a
thriving, growing, prosperous,
happy community, anyway?
Why do you want to see all of
these thiugs2
Isn't 1t, as a matter of fact,
because they contribute to your
own prosperity?
And if this is true, just be
honest with yourself and ask
yourself a few more "whys."'
For instance:
Why don't you keep your mon
ey at home?
Why do you send away for
goods when you know you can
buy them just as cheap at home?
Why do you send your money
away for the enrichment of out
siders when you know it contri-
butes just that much toward the
impoverishment of your own
town, of your own community, OF
yourself
Why do you send your money
to some city millionaire, where il
goes to swell his enormous bank
account, or to buy a thousand
dollar coat for his wife, or a new
affinity for himself?
Why do you send your money
away and deprive our local
churches and other worthy insti-
tutions of support, when you
know at least a portion of that
money goes to swell the rampant
vice of big city2
Why do you seek to throttle
the prosperity of your own home
by sending your hard earned dol
lars away to strangers who con-
slider you but another sucker
hooked?
Why decrease the circulation
of money at home, and thereby
depreciate the value of your own
property?
Why write your name in his
tory as a knocker, a killer, a
destroyer, as a local blight?
Why kick yourself down hill,
anyway?
The blindest man on earth is
the fellow who robs himself,
who destroys his own commun-
Iity, who seeks to cover our fair
countryside with the cobwebs OF
commercial staguation.

Lets All Get Together

Isn't il about time for the
people of this community to get
a little closer together, and work
in a little closer harmony one
with the other?
A country town and the farm
ing community surrounding 1t
are brothers, and the one cannot
succeed without the cooperation
and active assistance of the other.
A farming section without its
adjacent railroad and maaket
facilities would be back num-
Der, a dead one, with little future
ahead. Live farmers would shun
it, would have nothing to do
with it, for live men create a sur
plus, and they must have an out
let for that which they create.
A farm adjacent to some live
town and shipping facilities is
worth double that of piece of
ground with equal fertility To-
Gated In some obscure section of
the country. The relative val
ues of the products of the two
farms would be about the same,
the one high, the other low.
Therefore, the farming COM
munity is dependent upon the
town and its advantages for
much of the rural prosperity, for
the high value of land, for the
ease with which shipments are
made.
Farmers who believe in them
selves, who want a prosperous
community, should encourage the
town and its industries, should
buy from the home dealers,
should keep the money in the
home community, where it adds
to the commercial life of every
person.
Every dollar a farmer keeps in
circulation at home simply adds
that much to the riches of his
own community, to the value OF
his own holdings.
The town and the town mer-
chant owe an equal duty to the
farmer, for without his coopera-
ton both town and merchant
would perish.
The town should make the
farmer welcome, let him feel that
he is among friends, that it is
his town, that he has a personal
interest in its welfare.
The merchant should make it
possible for the farmer to buy
his goods as cheaply at home as
he can from some foreign house,
and he should keep this fact con.
stantly before the farmer.
He should encourage the far
mer by keeping reliable goods
and selling them at reasonable
price. Most merchants do this,
although the absence of the mer-
chants advertisements from the
local paper keeps the farmer in
