Ten Below Zero in Idaho.
Nampa, Ida, Dec. 16, 1919.

Nampa, AO0., Dec. 10, lVlS.
Editors Ward Co. independent:
In an item published in your moral
weekly dated in October, you make
me state that our strawberres were
ripe when the fact of the matter was
that they had been ripe and we had
been using them for three or four
months prior to that date. At the
present writing am a little ashamed
to report the weather from this place
as the weatherman has been giving
US some fierce weather. We have had
good sleighing for about a week and
the mercury has been from zero to 10
below every morning. This is the sec
ond time in nine years we have had
enough snow to make good sleighing.
We do not have enough wind here to
pile up the snow like in the middle
west. Farmers do not keep sleighs
here. The apple crop was exception
ally good and as prices have been high
orchardists are prosperous. Land is
coming up in price, having more than
doubled the last two years. We have
about twelve real estate dealers in
Nampa; also six or seven hotels, two
successful creameries and the Carna-
ton Condensing Co. have a large con-
densory. One of our hotels think is
a little larger than any hotel in Mi
not and they expect to add an addition
to it of fifty, or seventy-fve rooms as
there are not enough hotels to accom-
modate the public. There have been
400 houses built here this year and as
we expect the railroad division moved
here from Huntington we expect our
town will begin to boom.
Respectfully,
L. P. WEATHERWAX.

OF the burdensome and hitherto inn

When Players Study Roles

There is no arbitrary method of
studying character expression" &C
cording to Rupert Julian, the d.
rectorstar, and advances as argu-
ment the fact that each actor sees a
character in a different light, and,
therefore, no hard and fast rule of
study can be prescribed.
IF an actor has intelligence, the
first thing he will do when receiving
script is to get off by himself, read
the part and then visualize it in its
entirety.
"Of course, before he has done
anything else, he must have read
the entire plot, the script, from be-
ginning to END, so that he knows
definitely just what happens in the
cinema-drama. He will consider
each scene separately, note just how
the scenes dove-tail into each other,
how they add and add to the plot
till the climax is reached. He will
criticize the entire story, tear down
and build up. strike out the weak
points and strengthen the theme as
much as possible.

Some Spanish Recipes
By Marie Walcamp

Cooking is my hobby. It's hardly
correct to say that I'd rather cook
than eat, because unlike many cooks,
eating my own cooking is part Of
the pleasure I get from the cooking
itself. That isn't as complicated as
it sounds. Try it again-slowly.
Anyway, l like to cook, and like
to eat what l cook. My specially is
Spanish dishes,l such as California is
famous for. and here are some of my
recipes that may be Of interest:
Spanish Rice: Fry rice in butter
until it is light brown. Add chop
ped onions and allow to brown with
the rice. Cover with stewed toma-
toes, a touch of garlic, two red hot
peppers, and cover. Let steam until
rice is thoroughly cooked.
Stuffed Spanish Cabbage: Take
large, solid cabbage. Take out CEN
ter. Cook brains, chopped with

Then he will have a sultation

| * Then he will have consultation
with his director. The director and
the actor will consider the produce
ton together. They will read it.,
criticize, and correct the production
as much as possible. Then the read
ing of the plot to the entire cast
will occur. This also will aid the
star in making an estimate of his
part in the play. He will have the
benefit of the opinions of his sup
port. He will see his role from new
angles and consequently he will
again improve his personal interpre-
tation.
"But above everything he must
have brains, a swift intelligence, a
mind that visualizes each story he
reads, pictures it on the wall before
him.
ITO be successful the actor must
be absolute master of himself, able
to think as the character he portrays
thinks in the play; he must have
not merely intelligence-but bril-
lance"
