Three Nights Of
Comedy at Vining

Friday, Saturday and Sunday at
the Vining will be all comedy. Not
ordinary slapstick comedy, but high
class pictures with plot, action and
lots of good honest laughs.
On Friday night comes Victor
Moore in five-reel production,
Jimmie Fadden Out West" The
Jimmie Fadden stories are familiar
to nearly everyone. He is one of the
greatest characters in literature and
will delight you on the screen.
On Saturday night come two great
Triangle pictures, Double Trouble"
and "a Janitor's Wife's Temptation"
The first is five-reel feature film
and is a most entertaining story of
trouble, love, business and politics,
revolving around a man with a dou-
BILE personality. Douglas Fairbanks
/ plays the lead role. The myriad
temptations which pervade the life of
a janitor's wife form the basis for
"a screamingly funny Triangle-Key-
stone comedy in THE Janitor's Wife's
Temptation"
On Sunday night comes a film
which Manager Bergener proclaims
to be "a knockout" This picture has
his unqualified recommendation as
he ran it for a week in Portland,
where it attracted monster crowds.
Lew Fields of the great comedy team
Of Webber and Fields is supported by
cast of the greatest comedians Of
the day in "Old Dutch" Ashland
will have chance to see a 50 Broad
way comedy at the usual prices of
admission. Don't miss this one.

elected temporary chairman, and F..
E. Watson, secretary. Mr.. Howard,
now of Portland but formerly a resi-
dent here, was present and made a
clear statement as to why he be-

logical candidate of the republican
party at this time, expressing the
opinion that he was the one man
who had been mentioned so far that
could best unite the party.
Remarks were made by Attorney
Briggs, who declared himself for
Hughes, and by Ed Staples, F. E.

Why Is a Barber Pole?

not think Mr.. Phipps should be al
lowed the sign privilege unless any
one else who wished a sign was also
granted the privilege, but thought
when the signs were not in the way
they should be allowed.
Mr.. Nininger stated that he was
in favor of allowing stripes on barber
poles and thought if anyone wanted a
street sign taking only few inches
and not menace to the safety OF
the public it should be allowed and
suggested an amendment referring
the matter back to Mr.. Phipps with
the suggestion that he ask for diff
ferent kind of sign.
Mr.. Ashcraft voiced his desire for
a signless city, with nothing but
slightly electroliers on the side
walks"
After a tangle OF motions, amend
ments and reniging, the matter was
finally disposed of by referring it to
the street committee. Someone sug-
gested the cemetery committee but
not until official action had been
taken.

Soup Kitchens for Birds.

The establishment OF soup kitch.
ems" for the birds in the cemeteries
and city parks has been proposed by
A. J. Watson. scout commissioner who
offers to have Boy Scouts maintain
them IL the suet necessary is fur
nished free, states the Kansas City
Star. He also calls on all scouts to
feed the hungry birds about their
homes until the snow has melted
fully.
Scouts are taught to study bird life
and protect It, To feed the birds
scouts have found the best way is to
tie pieces of suet In trees and keep
grain and seeds in boxes also nailed to
trees.
"The furnishing of the seeds is
small item," Mr. Watson said. THE
scout organization viii gladly do that,
but it does not have the funds TO fur
nish suet. II any person or organiza-
ton will furnish it, the scouts will dis
tribute IT,"

Nitric Acid Needed.

Since the outbreak of the world war
the need of an added abundance Of
nitrogen has become doubly appar-
ent. Nitric acid goes into the making
of munitions; the manufacture Of
nitroglycerin. dynamite, guncotton,
smokeless powder and trinitratoluol
are absolutely dependent upon fixed
nitrogen. Many synthetic medicines
would be denied to humanity but for
the metamorphosing powers of nitro
gen, and for the millions that have
been stricken by its violence hundreds
of thousands have been helped back
to health and strength through this
same element in its beneficent moods.

The Humane society of Los Angeles.

use of the ostrich In harness and has
introduced a measure seeking to make
their use for that purpose unlawful.
Some OF the reasons advanced are:
The birds are dangerous because they
are liable to kick in any direction;
they violate the speed laws and they
are a menace to traffic because, with
their well-known fondness for hard
ware, they are apt to eat auto acces-
sories, licenses, tail lights, etc.
