THE LIBERTY WILL
OPEN MARCH lST

Work on Hood Rivers new play
house, The Liberty, is progressing very
nicely and it will shortly be open to
the public. The painters and decorat-
ors are already at work on the main
auditorium and as soon as the carpen-
ters are through finishing the other
parts of the building will be ready to
decorate them. Practically all of the
electrical work is finished and some Of
the main ceiling fixtures are hung.
The scenery and stage setting for the
picture screen has arrived from Port
land and will shortly be installed. Paul
Woolsey, who had charge of the NOV
ing of the pipe organ to the new organ
room, will soon be finished with voic-
ing and tuning the organ, and by the
time the new seats and motion picture
machines arrive the building will be
ready for them to be installed.
All things considered it will be some
where about the first of March when
the new theatre will give its initial
performance to the Hood River public.
Definite dates of the opening will be
announced later.

policy of the Monroe doctrine As would

us on account of that doctrine would
have to ight not only us but the rest
of the world well.
The senator says: The league
would take out of our hands the set

and put the disposition OF them in tina

league is contemplated. except by thu
senator. ID
The senator objects that the league

says the senator, we shall have to
destroy one of the most vitat'parts OF
the American constftution--tfst which
gives to congress the sole pbwer to
declare war" No. That ia hot neces-
sary. The league proposes that war

iZation he believes himself to be ar
guing against, But 1t isn't. What tho
senator ia so indignant with is really
a league Of his own construction. In
his anxiety lest America plunge hot
foot into the unknown, he makes UP
constitution and set OF laws and
house rules and a memberships commit
tee for "A suppositious league. and then
having built club house for 1t. OF the
most inflammable materials. he pro-
ceeds to set II on FIRE with shells Of

dances on the ashes with a com bina-

SAY GOODBY TO DOUGHNUT
Soaks Up Fat Which Can Be Put to
Better Use, Is Judgment
of Hoover.

The doughnut is doomed, says the
Indianapolis News. Recent intima-
tions of disapproval by the food ad-
ministration of this matutinal con-
fection might have been regarded as
spur to conservation and threat
that would not be carried out unless
bited in making bread or roofs from
adding sugar or fats to the dough
during the baking or afterward. Some
difference of opinion as to what are
rolls has given the doughnut re-
spite, but it is to be shortlived, ac-
cording to the state food administra-
tor, who brings this significant news
from Washington:
This ruling gives sweet dough
goods a temporary lease of life only.
Mr.. Hoover has a special grudge
against doughnuts. They soak up fat
which we do not need and our allies
are suffering for. So doughnuts and
frying pan foods will shortly be ia
boo and we must not eat or make
them until the war is over.
Thus is the fate Of the doughnut
sealed. Mr.. Hoover is known as det
termined man who cannot be moved
from a course which he thinks will
serve the interests of his country.
The statement, however, that the
food administrator has a grudge
against the doughnut will pain many
who have peculiarly strong fondness
for it as an accompaniment of the
morning meal, though Mr.. Hoover's
animus may arise from motives of
ma
If the government says the dough-
nut must go out of our lives, then
go it must. But there will be some
natural regret at parting with an
old and fried friend. The doughnut,
like pie, has become a part of our
common life. Many will find break
fast without sinkers and incomplete
and unsatisfying repast. But per-
