Like Columbus, whom they would
honor, the majority Of the visitors
to this fair found their voyage to the
New World one OF veritable and var

Among other things, they discov-
cred the kinetoscope, an invention Of
Thomas A. Edison, which, for exter-

that made an almost imperceptible
speck on the big fair grounds. A
sign, also modest, on the outside OF
the building announced to the pass
erby that, by stepping inside and
depositing nickel in the slot of a
machine to be found there, he might
see pictures, taken from actual life,
in actual motion.
This thing promised to be ever

This committee was the result OF

members, three being appointed by
the governor of each state, Washing

Will Discuss Bad
Road Crossings

Much interest will be taken by the
people of this section in a conference
which will be held in Portland, Ore,
on Thursday, November 23, under
the direction OF the Public Service
Commission of Oregon for the discus
sion and investigation of the elimina-
tioD and protection of crossings Of
railroads and public highways at a
common grade. Because of the fact
that in the Billings crossing this part
of Jackson county has crossing as
dangerous if not more dangerous
than any in the state, and because
all that seems to stand between the
present dangerous state of the cross
ing and a safe undergrade crossing is
red tape or unwillingness in some
quarter not apparent to the public,
this section will probably find way
to bring the matter to the attention
OF the commission. Since the money
is available and the county court has
often expressed its willingness TO go
ahead with the building of the new
crossing, no doubt the service COM
mission could investigate and arrive
at the source of impediment to prog
ress and remove whatever cause is
holding the construction back.
In regard to the conference the
commission says in part:
Statistics show that accidents are
increasing yearly at grade crossings,
and this subject is receiving earnest
consideration and attention generally
throughout the country. In this
state thereare approximately 2,SOO
grade crossings, SO per cent of which
have no protection other than the Or
binary standard highway crossing
warning sign. In the last eight years
there have been on these crossings
many accidents, 147 of them attend
ed with serious injury, and forty OF
which have resulted in death.
with a view of obtaining inform
alton and suggestions looking toward
the necessary legislative action to
provide for the elimination of these
crossings wherever possible, or the
installation of more adequate safe
guards, we are requesting state,
county, municipal and railroad Off
cials, and all who may be interested,
to meet with US and lend their aid
toward the enactment of such meas
ures as in the opinion of the confer
ence may be available"

"The Wood Violet" is the name of
the house which Miss Stewart has

this name because it was the title OF
her first success in the pictures
the film that gave her a start in her
climb to stardom.
This house, which is furnished
with exquisite taste, is the realization
OF the little stars dream. She has
always wanted a home where she
could rest with her mother after the
days work at the studio and where
she might entertain her friends.
During the erection of the house
Miss Stewart visited the grounds
daily, experimenting the workmen.
When the last beam was put in place
and the final daub of paint had been
applied to the shingles, she set about
to purchase the furnishings which
were to make the empty rooms cozy
