BIG LUMBERMAN ON
TOUR OF INSPECTION
F. G. Weyerhauser, Director
in Boise -Payette Company
and Head Of Great st.
Paul Concern, Here to
Visit Local Plants.

Idaho seems destined to
become a large factor in
meeting an unprecedentedly
heavy demand for lumber,
especially in Europe after
the close of the war.
Lulmbermen have not been
slow to foresee the unusual
requirements and have set
about in an organized way
to meet them.
HEAD OF SYNDICATE HERE.
The steps that have been taken by
them contemplate the fullest possible
development of Idaho's timber resour-
ces. as stated; and in that connection
the visit OF F. C. Weyerhauser, OF St.
Paul, head of the weyerhauser Tim
Der company. and a director in the
Boise-Pay. te Lumber Co., is pointed
out as being significant.
Mr.. Weyerhauser is guest at the
Owyhee, having come from Portland.
where conference of leading lumber
men of the nation was held recently
and where steps were taken for a con-
certed movement looking to the forma-
tion of a legal selling combination for
export trade.
PREPARING FOR BIG WORK.
With C. A. Barton, general manager
of the Boise Payette company, Mr..
Weyerhauser today paid visit to En-
NETT, where the company is inaugurat-
ing large operations. That and other
inspections are understood to be In line
with the part Idaho is to play in meet
ing what is expected to be the greatest
demand for the products of the forest
the world has ever known.
TAXATION OF TIMBER.
The Portland conference developed
az discussion OF the method of taxing
timber in the northwestern states.
The timbermen of Idaho have hereto
fore complained that the scheme of
taxation placed such a burden upon
timber it had been advantageous In
many cases to purchase stumpage from
the federal government rather than buy
state timber.
Some remedial legislation In the next
Idaho legislature will probably be Of
fered, but more specially in the interest
of the state and for the further devel-
opment of one of it's highly important
resources.

less the forthcoming purchasers of
Madison Square Garden decide to re-
tain the policy of conducting the huge

continuation of the present policy,

is the general understanding that when

The present Madison Square Garden
dates from 1890, in which year the new
building was completed and opened.
'Edouard Strauss and his orchestra and
two ballets provided the initial enter
tainment. For 20 years before this date
the site had been occupied by Gilmores
Garden, which took an old passenger
station of the New York Central and

How would you pronounce "Por-
tici%
Since the announcement Of the Uni
versal Film Manufacturing Company
that it would produce 1.-THE Dumb
Girl of Portici' with Anna Paylowa
in the leading role, the proper pro-
nounciation of the word "Portici' has
been the cause of considerable tongue
twisting by those who have had to
use the word frequently.
Even at the Universal headquarters
there are hardly two persons who will
give an identical pronunciation OF
the word. which prompted Carl Laem-
nile, president of the Universal, to
seek the proper way to pronounce the
word from Mile. Pavlowa herself
when she last visited New York.
According to Mile. Paylowa, 1t is
pronounced abroad as "Por-tee'-chee,"
with soft accent on the second syl-
liable, and she proves it by several ex-
pert linguists in her ballets, who have
interpreted the story Of 1.-THE Dumb
Girl of Portlci" to her from the orig
inal which was written by Auber, a
Frenchman, in Italian, the story Of
Fenella being laid in Italy.
So we can now call 1t "Por-tee'-
chez" and be on the safe side.

A star part that has been sort
OF family heirloom-that OF playing
the child star in THE Poor Little Rich
Girl"-has yielded up to Edison one
of the cleverest little leading ladies' on
the stage in the person Of Leonle Flu
grath who is with that company again.
For Leonie is the third sister Of her
family who has accredited herself UNI
commonly as the little rich girl, the
other two having grown out OF the
part, which requires little girl stat
ure.
Up in arms when first on the stage,
literally speaking. Miss Flugraths
first speaking part came, as re-
ward-and allowance Of natlre-at
four years Of age. when she created
the part of the boy, Hal, with Faver-
sham in 1.-THE Squawman," and played
it for three seasons. Four seasons
were then spent with Thomas JEFF
ferson in Grip Van Winkle,' and then
with Edith Wayne Mathewson in THE
Piper" in 1.-THE Burglar" and two sea-
SUuS WIFI SudIleS SlSlIs, dIou AeASh
ard Bennett in "Passersby," when she
understudied her sister while THE
Poor Little Rich Girl" was earning
It's Broadway commentator. AT this
lime she also played in Edison films,
doubling up in a way, for two years.
When the time came, in Philadel-
phia, she played the part Of the poor
little rich girl with such ability and
looked so much like her sister that
the audience never knew there had
been any substitution in the role.
Little Miss Flugrath has closed her
season with that company after an
over country tour and is impatientiy
awaiting the production of Edison
plays in which she will figure prom
inently. Miss Flugrath's two other
sisters. who starred in the same role,
in 1.-THE Poor Little Rich Girl" are,
curiously enough. both now starring
in motion picture Aim companies.

pear in "Fenella" or "The Dumb Girl
of Portici."
She brought along with her her
own artist, for whom she posed es-
pecially for these posters so as to en-
able him to get the proper proper
ton of her limbs, so that when the
posters were enlarged or reduced in
size, they would be properly proper
toned and technically correct in de-
