AUTO TURNED OVER.
From Mondays Daily.

Louis Larson, proprietor of a liv-
cry stable at Lake Crystal, is at the
Emmanuel hospital, seriously hurt
as the result of an accident with his
Ford automobile, which occurred
yesterday afternoon on the Eagle
Lake road, about five miles from
Mankato. Two of his ribs are broken
and one of his lungs is punctured by
the jagged end of one rib.
The automobile, a Ford, which he
was driving, turned three front SOM
ersults. Mr.. Larson was owner of
the car. One story is to the effect
that a tire happened to blow out
and Mr.. Larson suddenly threw on
the brakes, and the interference
caused the car to make it's strange
turns.
There are some who say that the
automobile was going at a high rate
of speed, but there are others who
say it was not. In the car besides Mr.
Larson were three young men, Henry
Lyle of st. Paul, Harry Smith of
st. Paul and Roy Anderson Of
Kansas. Henry Lyle suffered the
breaking of two bones in his right
foot. Henry Smith received a cut
over the left eye and some minor
bruises. This morning he was still
dilirious. Roy Anderson's right arm
was injured but not seriously.
Henry Lyle, living at 81 East De-
los street, ST. Paul, one of the vic
Tins of the auto accident that hap
pened yesterday afternoon on the
Eagle Lake road walking on two
crutches, called at The Free Press

Southern States
Organize Outing

One of the largest meetings Of for
mer residents Of other states was held
at the city hall last Tuesday and it
was decided that the next meeting
should be held on May 81, at which
time the organization would be per-
fected. The spirit in which the
southerners have taken hold Of and
are enthused with the idea of hav-
ing an outing this summer shows that
hospitable spirit characteristic Of all
southern people, and their organiza-
tions bids we'll not only of being the
largest of its kind, but also that of
making the stranger who comes here
on an outing to feel that he or she
is welcome and that they are here
for good time.
The meeting will be held in the
city hall on Wednesday, May 81, at
p. m, and all who formerly resided
in the south are invited to attend.
This does not include the former res
idents of California or Arizona, as
these states are included in other
outings.

OUR GOOD THEORIES WHICH WE
LET OTHERS PRACTICE.

Young nations, like the newest ba-
bies, profit much by modern advan-
tages. There's Cuba, which, accord
ing to her inherited traditions, should
deal with criminals after the manner
OF the middle ages.
But Cuba, although only recently
made a republic, is setting older
countries an example in prison con-
structlon, management and discipline.
At present her prisoners make their
own clothes and work on the govern
ment roads.
A new prison which is now being
planned by Colonel A. H. Aguirre,
the warden of the three Havana pris-
ons, will be a model of scientific ar
rangement, and II will be constructed
as far as possible by the convicts.
Colonel Aguirre is at present in the
United States getting posted in some
OF the fine theories in which we are
"long." We have plenty Of theories
about criminals in this country. 1t
is only in penology, their practical
application, that we are short" We
do much less well than we know be-
cause our prisons everywhere are re-
garded as the proper spoil Of our
politicians.

WHEN STABILITY MAY BE FATAL.

Confidence in her husband is the
most beautiful thing in a married
womans life. When that is gone,
nothing is left" testifies a Kansas
City woman in a suit for divorce.
Confidence is the basis of success
in business. Bankruptcy results
when a man loses the confidence Of
his business associates.
Confidence Is the basis Of peace
between nations, and when it is vio-
lated they go to war.
But most fortunes are piled up late
in life after a man has learned how
to do business successfully by failing
several times. And nations at war
in one decade protest their friendship
in the next and become allies against
a common enemy.
It is only in marriage that men and
women insist that confidence, once
lost, can never be restored. But even
in that we are learning. Now we
have domestic relations courts in
many lare cities, the object of which
is to re-establsh homes from which
confidence has fled.
Unfortunately the most bitter
tragedies are never discussed in do
mestic relations or divorce courts.
Husbands and wives live and die in
distrust of each other because they
forget that all the religions Of the
world preach forgiveness, and that all
science teaches the law Of change.
Refusal to change ourselves, re-
fusal to recognize change in others,
means death to the emotions, Of
which love is the most vital.
To claim that one cannot renew
ones confidence in another is not at
all proof of cne's own integrity and
respectability. 1t is very often a
proof that one is self-centered and
selfish. ~.

Wants to Abolish Park Commission.
Editor Tidings: l would like, as
citizen of Ashland, if you could see
your way clear to publish this arti-
Gle, entitled, whats Going to Be-
come of Our Parks or Springs Water
Project?"
It is indeed a deplorable condition
that such friction and discension and
spite, etc., prevail between members
of our city council, springs commits
sion and park commission. All Of
this friction is uncalled for and hurts
our city, especially when strangers
are in our midst, which they are at
the present time, and at time when
plans are being perfected for our
Fourth of July celebration and other
pageants, etc., that such friction is
liable to hurt. I therefore ask from
every reader of this article your care
full and just consideration of the fol-
lowing proposition:
That the people of Ashland draw
up, a charter amendment abolishing
the park commission, which was Gre
ated in 1908, and also abolishing the
springs water commission when their
work is completed and their final re-
port is made to the city Of Ashland.
Then provide one commission OF
three citizens, to be known as the
park springs commission, such COM
mission to have entire control and
management of all city parks and
springs water plant, and that the
people shall say by their votes what
funds this commission shall have to
spend annually.
This commission to be elected one
for three years, one for two years
and one for one year, and thereafter
every one for three years. Such a
commission l believe would settle
this whole question for all time.
can see nothing at present but
Ashland tidings. [volume] (Ashland, Or.) 1876-1919, 1916-05-29

friction ahead of us, while both COM
missions exist. / will illustrate that
in a few words The park commits
sion controls all lands created for
park purposes; the springs commits
sion controls the springs water prof.
ect. The pipes of the springs COM
mission go through the land con-
trolled by the park commission, and
If ever the pipes have to be dug up
for repairs or other reasons, through
the park, shrubs, trees, walks and
flowers will have to be moved or de-
stroyed, then you will have friction
with either the park superintendent
an park commission, or vice versa.
Any citizen who is concerned in
the future of Ashland will realize
this. The writer has nothing but the
greatest respect and regard for every
member of our park commission,
springs commission and city council,
but the future of Ashland is at stake
and every man and woman should
pull together, with one end in view,
for the upbuilding and betterment Of
our city, and that can only be accom-
plshed by cooperation and unity
not through knocking, kicking and
fault-finding.
The people of Ashland voted $175,-
900 for spring water and park pur-
poses, and that money and interest
we have to pay whether we like it or
not. If we ever expect to get any
body here who will help US pay it we
certainly have to get them through
cooperation and not by wrangling
and fighting. Such quarreling drives
people away and is liable to drive
away those we already have estab-
lished here.
These are the things to be consid
cred by the men who have brains and
the women who have homes and like
our city.
If any citizen likes this proposition,
come out in the open and declare
yourself. A CITIZEN.

requisites. Anything l say must be
tentatively and with reservations.
With this understood, l will ven
ture the opinion that the eyes are the
most important Of picture actress S
features. In drama where the voice
is denied one, the eyes are the most
nearly audible part of the face. l
think that you will find them always
the most eloquent. l have often
heard it said that dumb animals
the horse or dog, for instance-talk
with their eyes, and l have certainly
found it true with my own pets. The
only reason we have not taken this
more into consideration in respect to
people is because they have tongue
and consequently there is small need
to pay attention to the eyes.
In a way l believe it took motion
pictures to make us realize just how
much one may express with the eyes.
The screen emphasized the old adage
that "The eyes are the lamp of the
SOUL"
will not attempt to say what kind
of eyes in shape and size and color
are the most desirable. AS gen.
eral thing, directors believe that dark
ones photograph the best. Hazel
eyes, too, prove excellent in this re-
spect, as do any others where there
is decided contrast between the iris
and the white. Such eyes always
seem to be the most decisive and to
enunciate the most plainly in screen
language" In any event, it is the
expressive rather than the merely
pretty eye that pictures require.
They must be readily responsive to
every mood of the actresses role.
They must interpret her part; in
short, they must tall.

estimating values in this respect.
Sometimes the girl that might be ex-
pected to show to great advantage
on the screen proves an utter impos-
sibility as a Photographic subject.
That it should be so seems out of all
reason and inexplicable, but must be
accepted as one of the vagaries Of the
picture camera.
Neither can any definite judgment
as to a persons motion picture posi-
bilities be based on the kind of por-
trait lie or she can secure from the
Still" photographer. A "still' pho
tograph is specially posed with lights
and position carefully arranged for
the occasion. If this alone is not
enough, the photographer can re-
touch the negative and, If he is clever
enough, bring out one feature strong
ly and subordinate another. The mo-
tion picture, however, must accept
things pretty much as it finds them.
There is but limited opportunity for
special arrangements and poses, and
none at all for retouching.
It is consequently with consider
