But from the beginning of my ex- I have entertained altogether different views. I hold that the woman who dis plays herself brazenly to men may mo- mentarily attract attention, but will lose it as quickly. The siren who knows her game does not reveal-she suggests. She wears as much clothing as any other woman on the stage, but she wears it differently.
 And so l have dressed for every part I have played, I think I may truly say, without having once appeared in an immodest gown. In the various Tri- angle-Ince productions in which I have appeared, I have played dance hall girls, women of the "gay white way" and si- rens of the half world, who cling to a semi-respectability with one hand while they reach for their prey with the oth- er In no characterization have found it at all necessary to resort to an extreme display of shoulders or to in- decorously clinging attire, in order to convey to the audience the fact that l am attracting men through physical lure

TIE DEVIL GOWN"

what any other woman wears, so odd and fascinating in it's very concealment. 'The Serpent" a single scarf of shaded crepe de chine caught up on the head and wound the whole way down the figure, reveals only an arm and a modest display of shoulder. Yet I hold that it stamps the wearer as a siren who knows her business. And so with the peacock dress. Men have not pro- gressed so far in the codes of civiliza- tion that there is not still a strong strain of the barbaric in most of them. and it responds to the bizarre in wom- en's attire. A woman who wears headdress, train and fan of peacock feathers will catch any mans attention. That gives the siren her chance-and that's all any accomplished siren should require.
 I have been told that a dress called the Spider gown made people gasp. Yet it is not in the least immodest. 1n fact, it is cut quite high in the neck. But because it is slaShed across the front diagonally, the black velvet being contrasted with white silk overlaiG with net spider web and a spider, i' has caused some startled comment. . hold that this is simply because it is unusual and not because it is indeco- rous.
 I have one very strong reason for dressing these "vampire' roles as I dc without impropriety-and that is that I do not wish to render either tho parts I play or my own individuality repellent to women patrons of Triangle pictures.
 If there is one form of amusement above all others which is dependent on the good will of women it is the nov ing picture. Women do not want to see pictures on the screen which they would not want displayed in their own homes. They do not want their chill dren learning in film theatres things that are not allowed to reach them in books or through other avenues. And so l want every characterization l make to be one to which no woman who sees it can object.
 In this believe am succeeding, and it is a source of much pleasure to me to think that this is so.

MARINES SHOOT WELL.

Washington. Jan. 20.-Deoraratlons that since the days of frontier life have passed, Americans are no longer entitled to their former fame as rifle men are completely refuted by statiS' tics, say officers of the United States marines. These officers recently com piled data showing that splendid shooting qualities are still charac- teristic Of American troops.
 More than three per dent. of the 6141 members of the United States Marine corps who fired dur ing 1916 on the fourteen Marine corps rifle ranges, are qualified skilled riflemen. according to the table just compiled. Of these sea holders, 921, or fifteen per cent, are expert riflemen: 1044, or seventeen per cent, are sharpshooters; and g. 51s. or forty one per cent, are marks men.
 It is doubtful if Leatherstocking himself could outshoot them, says the marines.

 \ Philip Price Subscription.
 The story of the redemption Of Phll- ip Price, told by MT. Godfrey at the dinner the night before, stirred tt least one heart to desire to do some thing for boys. Mr. Means told of one subscription of $50, given in the pame Of Philip Price.
 ''He wants this to be Philip Price subscription, said Mr. Means. "He gives $50, and will later designate the Loys to be given the memberships. The gentleman plans, as I understand It, tc play the part of big brother to these boys. and intends to watch their careers. He's a bachelor, and deslres to do something for the boys" This announcement was applauded, and the full significance of the attl- tude of this man and what it should mean to tho boys was not lost. And some speculated upon the immense good that would result if all the bach elors in Pine Bluff would thus invest some of their surplus funds in boy hood. Tomorrow's canvass will be the real opening of the campaign, and it IS confidently expected that more than six-tenths of the amount desired will | be reported at the luncheon to be served bv the member of the Women's auxiliary.

One woman who had evidently had near view of the game said: 'It is played by two men. One is a gentleman and the other is common man.

Mark Twain's Rented Kittens,

A part of Mark Twain's entertain ment (while at Dublin, N. H.) was a trio of kittens which he had rented for the summer-rented, because then they would not lose ownership and would find home and protection in the autumn. He named the kittens Sack cloth and Ashes Sackcloth being a black and white kit, and Ashes joint name owned by the two others, who were gray and exactly alike. All sum- mer long these merry little creatures played up and down the wide veran- da, or chased butterflies and grasshop- pers down the clover slope, offering Mark Twain endless pleasure-From '"The Boys Life of Mark Twain" by

PROBLEM OF BOX
SHORTAGE WORRIES

Strikes of woodsmen and mill en-
of lumber concerns. the plants of which
are located on Puget Sound, unless
terminated at an early date, allowing
mills to proceed, may result in heavy
loss to Hood River valley fruit grow
ers. Local sales associations have
contracted for the most of their con-
tainer supply from Puget Sound mills,
now tied up by labor troubles. Market
men admit that their gravest worry
now is the impending box shortage.
Through the Northwestern Fruit Ex-
change the Fruit Growers Exchange
had contracted for enough boxes, not
only to supply its own affiliations, but
to stock growers shipping independent
ly. The material is in kilns, dried and
awaits the saw, but not a wheel is
turning at the plant where the lumber
is stored.
81 try not to be pessimistic, says
F. W. Buff, manager of the Fruit
Growers Exchange, ''but the situation
is a grave one just now. While we are
hoping that something may be Jared
loose at the mills, we are looking in
other directions for containers, for we
must have them, and it may be possi-

AUTOS BRING INDIANS
FOR HUCKLEBERRIES

In years gone by Indians, who annu-
ally flock from adjacent reservations to
harvest the crops of huckleberrie that
grow luxuriantly on hundred acre
burned over tracts around Lost Lake,
have journeyed on the backs of faithful
ponies, other cayuses carrying te-
pees, bedding and camp equipment.
But the Redman has adapted himself
to the progress of modern times, and
the first of this week, according to D.
l. Stone, party of Yakima braves,
their families and. their dogs arrived at
the huckleberry grounds aboard bright
new automobiles.
The Indians were garbed in their
customary gay CLOTHES, some of the
papooses were swaddled in time hon.
ored woven baskets and camp equip
ment was in no wise different from
former days, but the ponies, formerly
consuming so much of the time of
squaws IN attention demanded, were
missing.
Mr.. Stone says that the huckleberry
crop is fine, and in addition to the Indi-
ans scores of white families are headed
toward the fields of luscious fruit.

LIVE news FROM
TWELFTH COMPANY
(By Sergeant Forrest l.. Moe)

Twelfth Company, Oregon Coast Ar
tillery, the official name given to the
men after having been drafted into the
regular army, is now located in bar
racks at Fort Candy, Wash. The COM
pany has been assigned to the three
6-inch disappearing guns at Battery
Allen, on the extreme west end of the
Columbia river coast defenses.
The move from Fort Stevens was
made Friday afternoon on one of the
government transport boats which plies
between Astoria and all of the Colum-
bia river forts. All of the men have
been equipped with everything needed
at the present time and strict army life
has begun in earnest. The quarters
for the men are two large private ad-
joining houses, which have teen con-
verted into barracks and which have
all the necessary conveniences for COM
fort.
There are no stores whatever at Fort
Candy, but Post Exchange, where
the men can purchase tobacco, candy,
etc., is being planned.
The town of Ilwaco, with about 1900
inhabitants, is three miles and Long
Beach about seven miles distant by
wagon road. The soldiers Fat the fort
have an opportunity of visiting these
places in the evening and on Saturday
afternoon or Sunday.
The summer outing season at the
beaches is now on in full swing and
the soldiers from the several forts are
falling right in line at every opportun-
ity.
The weather so far has been almost
ideal. There has been only about one
full day of light rain and the thermom-
eter never rises above 80 degrees.
Several members of the Company have
been enjoying the usual pastime of the
sea shore-clam digging and fishing,
and several good catches have been
made.
Several members of the Company
have received packages from home
folk containing eatables and refresh
ments of various sorts. 1t is suggest
ed by Captain Wilbur that this be cur
tailed somewhat at present, because
very good rations are being provided
by the government, but during the fall
and winter months the diet will be-
come more or less tiresome and possi-
bly, limited, when such donations from
home will be better appreciated.
Uncle Sam feeds his soldiers light
fruit rations, mostly from dried stock,
and most of the men, being accustomed
to the real thing and any quantity of
it, sorely miss the home products.
While the Company was encamped
at Fort Stevens seven or eight parties
from Hood River visited the camp
while on their way to or coming from

HELEN DAVIDSON
SUSTAINS INJURY

Miss Helen Davidson, was seriously
hurt Friday afternoon when falling
boulder rolled down from a cliff, as
she and a party were starting on the
descent from the summit of Mount
Hood, and struck the young woman on
the forehead. Miss Davidson was
rendered unconscious.
Unable to carry the injured girl
down the almost perpendicular l,50O
feet of the icy face of the east side of
the mountain, members of the party
succeeded in lifting her back to the
summit, where a stretcher was impro-
vised, and with six men carrying her,
Miss Davidson was borne to Govern
ment camp. She was removed to
Portland Saturday.
A party of seven, all residents of
The Dalles except Miss Davidson, left
Cloud Cap Inn at four o'clock Friday
morning. At Pilot Rock, Miss Helen
Gray, exhausted. was unable to pro-
ceed further. Left alone on the noun
tain side the young woman expected
her companions to return at 2 80
o'clock. Because of the accident the
other climbers all returned with Miss
Davidson down the south side of the
peak. A message from Elijah Coal
mans lookout house on the summit of
the mountain informed Cloud Cap Inn
of the predicament of the young
woman, and H. W. Acton, asst mana
ger of the resort fastened to her res
cue. Mr.. Acton reached Miss Gray at
five o'clock. Suspense, worry and
suffering from thirst had rendered the
girl almost frantic.
In addition to Miss Davidson and
Miss Gray, the other members of the
party were: Mrs. w. o. Hadley,
Chester Huggins, Wilma Donnell, Hal
bert Selby and j. r. Balm.
News of the accident did not reach
the girls mother Friday evening until
all westbound trains had departed for
Portland. Mrs. Davidson, accompan-
led by Miss Mae Davidson, an aunt of
the injured girl, who is graduate of
the Portland Academy and who recent
ly received appointment as teacher of
domestic science at the Wasco high
school, went to Portland Saturday
morning to meet Miss Davidson when
she was brought down from Govern
ment Camp.
Miss Davidson was returned to her
home with her mother Saturday even
ing. Despite the fact that the blow
resultd in slight fracture and indent-
alton, Miss Davidson is making most
satisfactory recovery.

WAR BRIDES" AT EMPRESS
 MONDAY, MAY 14th

"War Brides" the first production of the Herbert Brenon Film Corpora tion, will be seen at the Empress theatre on Monday, May 14th. This picture will introduce to moving pie ture patrons a new star, Nazimova. Well known on the stage, she is now making her debut on the screen in a film version of the play by Marion Craig Wentworth, in which she made such a sensational success in vaude- vile. "War Brides" is an intensely dramatic story, but while it has to do with conditions brought about by the war, there are no battle scenes. A trench is shown and the effect of the fighting on the troops, but no battle scenes are enacted. The main story has to do with the suffering of the women at home. Joan, the young widow, defes the military authori- ties, and urges the young women of the village to refuse to become brides of the departing soldiers. She is im- prisoned, but escapes and leads band of mourning women to meet the king and protest against war. Her own individual message she deliveres in 2 most dramatic manner.

GOV. CAMPBELL IN NO HURRY
 TO MAKE APPOINTMENTS

After the news of Judge Stanford's decision had reached Gov. Campbell he prepared the following grief state ment:
 "Of course 1 feel good about the de- cision but have always felt that the right would prevail and have always believed that I was rightfully elected.
 "In the matter of appointments, I will get to them as soon as I can ob- tain the men we want, the very best men for the positions who are avail able. There will be no rush in mak- ing appointments for intend to take my time and l want those now in of- flee to continue to serve and consider themselves a part of the administra- ton until they are requested to re- sign. There will be no hurry in mak- ing appointments. That will not be my policy at all nor is it my desire to displace competent officials merely to put a republican in the place of a democrat.
 "Up until today I have been the de facto governor of Arizona. Tomorrow l will be governor in fact and I shall act in all things as I believe the gov ernor of Arizona should act-for the best interests of all the people of the state."
