Frank Mcintyre, one of the fore
most comedians on the stage, makes
his motion picture debut in the Fa-
nous Players adaptation of his best
known success, "The Travelling
Salesman in which he toured the
country for three seasons. 1t is an
interesting coincidence that Mr.. Nc
Intyre's first appearance on the
screen should be made in an adapta-
ton of the play in which he scored
his first great success.
"The Travelling Salesman" is the
Paramount Picture at the Orpheum
theatre tonight and tomorrow. 1t is
a remarkable mixture of comedy and
drama, in which this jovial comedian
is thoroughly at home, having play
ed in every known form of theatrical
from farce and musical
comedy to heavy dramas. Mcintyre
himself has travelled as much as the
average salesman in his tours all over
the country, and he plays the part
with an understanding that gives his
a complete reality.

MoNTEITH CONCERT SATURDAY
Musical Treat of Season In Store For
Dallas People.

Ticket sales for the Monteith-Eich-
enlaub concert point to large crowd
Saturday night, according to J. C.
Uglow, who, with Roy Miller, is tax
ing charge of the local end of the
proposition. People are expected from
several districts in the county; word
has been received that many Mon
mouth citizens will hear the celebrat-
ed baritone and Mr.. and Mrs. Frank
Eichenlaub, at the Christian church.
Monteith was here last year and
made a big hit with Dallas people.
He is considered the greatest baritone
singer in the northwest and probab-
ly the entire Pacific coast. Frank
Eichenlaub, violinist, has studied un-
der Seveik and other music teachers
who have turned out the greatest of
modern violinists. Mrs. Eiehenlaub
is an accomplished piano soloist and
aecompanist.
The concert is being brought To
Dallas, not with any idea of financial
profit, but merely to furnish local
people a musical treat of the highest
order Messrs. Uglow and Miller have
offered to turn the proposition over
to the Women's club, if they think
they can make any money out of it.
The talent is costing more per unit
than any other attraction of its kind
that ever came to Dallas.

NO BRIDGE DECISION REACHED.
County Courts Still Investigating
Two Types of Bridges.

Neither Polk nor Marion county
has swerved from their favorite type
of bridge. Investigations are pro-
ceeding in friendly way but there
is little hope of agreement unless
the Marion county court concludes
that the concrete bridge should be
built. They are taking a longer
breathing spell than usual this time
as the next meeting is slated for a
week from Saturday.
Judge Kirkpatrick was quoted IN
error last Friday by this paper as not
favoring a steel bridge encased in
concrete. He favors the steel
encased- cement bridge and prefers
q high level bridge, although the lat
ter distinction is not likely to prove
a bone Of serious contention. They
are now determining whether the riv-
er will stand a concrete structure at
the Center street site.
II is understood that the commit
tee from the Commercial club ap-
pointed to arrange for the planking
of the bridge can go ahead with
building the 800 feet approach on the
Polk county side and the planking,
but the railway officials will give no
permission to use the bridge until
the two county courts have signed
contract for a new bridge. Hence,
everything remains in "status quo"

the retail dealer will be allowed to add
to the average wholesale cost Of his
coal in making retail prices.
The retail dealer will be allowed to
sell coal to the consumer ut . price
