Marguerite Clark
at the Oregon

Direstor j. Searle Dawley in speak
ing Of Marguerite Clark's latest proto-
play ''The Valentine Girl, which he
directed for the Famous Players Film
company and which will be released on
the Paramount program, said: ''It is
easy enough to censure the scenario
department or the director when story
or plot does not seem to appeal to
one s personal taste, but if people
would realize the tremendous task fac
ed by these harassed persons in pick
ing out photoplays best fitted to each
particular star they would be more con-
siderate of us. The plot may be the
best in the world, but if the character
of the lead is not suitable for the star
who is to take the part it is absolute
ly useless to attempt to film it, and of
course, vice versa.
% However, in THE Valentine Girl
] believe that we have secured the
combination-a plot that is technical
ly perfect and leading role that fits
Marguerite Clark as well as any she
has ever played Miss Clark s winsome
personality lends itself particularly
well to child impersonations and yet as
grown up young lady she has GER
tain charm of manner seldom if ever
egualled on the screen.
"In this picture she combines the
two in her own inimitable fashion and
has produced a character that will, l
am sure, greatly endear itself to the
heart
'fLittle Marian Morgan, the wistful,
quaint little figure standing at the
door of the father S home while he fin
ishes his game with some fellow gamb-
leTs, is a pathetic little person that
somehow won her way even into our
hardened hearts at the studio and made
us forget for moment that it was in
reality only Marguerite Clark, the idol
of the screen.
Director Dawley was greatly aided
in his work of making this production
by the well known cameraman, Lyman
Broening.
The story is about little girl, Ma
Tian Morgan by name, whose mother is
dead and whose father is a confirmed
gambler. She isn't brought up at all
like ordinary children, but like the i'm
mortal Topsy, she "jus' growed up, -
and it is no thanks to her father that
she blossoms into winsome young lady
hood
"'The Valentine Girl" will be the at
traction at the Oregon theater days
starting tomorrow.

rne Blood and the Brain

Among the many important physio-
logical facts that should be as well
known by people generally as they are
by physicians, is the dependence of the
brain for its proper action on the vi
tality of the blood. If this is impaired,
the blood affords an imperfect stimu-
Ius TO the brain, and, as necessary
consequence, languor and inactivity of
the entire nearvous system follows, and
a tendency to headache or faintness
makes its appearance.
1t is probable that no other medicine
ever produced has done more in the
way of revitalizing the blood, making
it pure and rich than Hood s Sarsapa-
Tilla, which should certainly be given
a trial where there is any reason to be-
Iieve that the blood is defective in
quality or deficient in quantity.

ed as evidenced by the letters received
by Salem men expressing thir thanks
and pleasure upon receipt of the "com-
fort bags" and housewives" that
have added so much 10 their comfort.
The Salem league would like to con
tribute to all Salem men no matter in
what department. their patriotic work
may be, but have not funds for further
procedure at present. While "Salem
First" is our slogan we would work
for all if possible.
The Salem Patriotic league is the
only organization which specializes on
work for Company M, and Salem men.
Every sister, wife, mother and sweet
hearC are just a little more anxious to
work for father brother, husband and
sons of our community.
We have very recently made 50 com
fort bags and So housewives for Com
pany NJ We are often asked just
what are these comfort bags and
housewives -? The comfort bag is a
khaki bag 15 inches long and 13 inches
around, filled with pockets. The sol
diers call them their bed rooms and
trunk which they have. The housewife
is also made of khaki cloth and is a
succession of rolled up pockets, con
tanning needles, pins, buttons, safety
pins, court plaster, thread, scissors,
etc.
1t is to be hoped that this article
will be an answer to some of the num-
erous questions often asked in regard to
