Upper Granite.

The Upper Granite Street EN-
broidery Club met Friday afternoon,
January IA, at the hospltable home
of Mrs. James Mattingly on Straw
berry Lane. 1t being the first meet
ing since the holidays, the embroid-
cry part of the program suffered
from neglect.
1t was unanimously decided to in
clude some literary work in each
session, two members to furnish
short articles at each meeting. A
genuine hot-tamale feed was provid-
ed by the hostess, which caused every
one to clamor for her to repeat the
entertainment and serve the same re-
freshments. After the conundrums
we're all satisfactorily answered the
guests departed, having spent a de-
lightfully pleasant afternoon.

Charlotte Walker
In H0ut OfDaTkneSS''

The Chipping drama, "out of
Darkness, with the distinguished
actress, Charlotte Walker, in the star
role, will be the attraction at the
Vining on Tuesday, January IS, un-
der the direction OF the Jesse l..
Lasky company. Miss Walker will
be remembered by photodramatic
patrons for her splendid performance
of the women of the slums in "Kind-
ling"
In "Out Of Darkness" Charlotte
Walker is seen as q wealthy society
girl too interested in pleasure to pay
any attention to the conditions of the
thousands Of struggling workers who
make her millions for her. How
while sailing her sloop she is run
down and injured by steamer, loses
her identity and goes to work in her
own cannery, where she rescues the
manager from the burning office, are
but few of the thrilling incidents Of
this stirring photodrama.
Miss Walker is supported by cast
of unusual merit. Among the prin-
cipal players are Thomas Meighan,
Margery Daw, Tom Forman, Lucian
Littlefield, H. B. Carpenter and other
members of the Lasky all-star stock
company.

Valley Poultry
Show February 9

At a meeting held at Medford last
Saturday poultrymen from all parts
of the valley set February 9 as the
date for a valley poultry show and
effected an organization to carry out
plans. Several poultry raisers and
ranchers interested attended from
this district, among them being w. N.
Nortridge, who addressed the meet
ing. The business men of Medford
have pledged their support to the
show, and raisers of poultry through
out the valley are taking lively in
terest in the project. The show will
start on the 9th and continue for
three days. Prizes will be awarded
on the 10th.
Details of the show pans will be
published later.
The farmers will be permitted to
show their poultry free of charge of
any kind. Members will be admitted
to the show free of charge, but a
nominal admission fee of 10 cents
will be charged all others-just
enough to give it the appearance of
business. The association also deter
mined not to charge a membership
fee this first year. Contributions
were received, however, from many
of those who attached their sigma
lures to the membership roll.
A board of directors was elected as
follows: c. E. Gates, E. T. Gardner
(chairman), W. c. Fritsche, Ernest
Webb of Central Point, c. P. Carpen-
ter, R. A. Miksche and G. A. Myers.
The laws, rules and regulations
governing the Eugene Poultry Asso-
citation were adopted.

Skovgaard Pleases
Ashland Crowd

A small but appreciative audience
greeted Skovgaard, the Danish vio-
linist, and the New York Metropoli-
tan Company at the Vining Theatre
Saturday night, Skovgaard came
fully up to the expectations and was
forced to give great many encores.
He plays easily and simply with
pure, true tone, and without the os-
tentation that often mars the per-
formances of less genuine artists.
The vocalists were all pleasing, par
ticularly Miss Hawkins, who in Col
eridge Taylor's Life and Death" and
Willamette" appeared to excellent
advantage. Special mention should
be made of Alice McClung, who not
only showed admirable interpretive
ability in her piano numbers, but as
accompanist added materially to the
pleasure of the evening by exhibiting
that unusual combination in an ac-
companist, sympathy and restraint.

Coast Artillery
May Receive Pay

A new movement being instigated
by Chairman Hay, of the house COM
mittee at the national capitol is of
especial import to the members of
the local coast artillery corps.
Under Mr.. Hays plan the national
guard would get regular pay and a
provision would be included in the
army bill for taking 1t into the regu-
lar army in time of war. He said
that at first the plan would bring
only about 10000 men into the reg
ular army but he felt that within two
years there would be 400, 900.
This plan has been rumored for
some time and its submission to the
president by Mr.. Hay is welcomed
by the militiamen throughout the
country. Up to the present the militia
members serve without pay except for
the two weeks they spend in camp
annually. Under the new plan each
man would receive pay'for attending
wrill and the officers would be paid
more. 1t is believed that such pay
ment would tend to raise the stand
