BRINGING UP
FATHER AT HOME

The announcement that new play
founded on the world-famous cartoons
Ct George McManus. Bringing Up
Father" is about TO be presented
IS invariably a good piece Of news.
THAT this is a fact is proven by the
billing agent the attraction al the
Gayety theatre Tuesday evening,
april -.
The offering is known as Bringing
Up Father at Home and is describ-
ed as the best OF the series involv-
ing adventures and doings Of this
noted newspaper comic. Manager
Gus Hill, who took Father right out
Of the confines of the dailies and plac-
ed him on the stage, declares that
the unique and unusually popular per-
1onage is never so funny as on this
particular occasion. He is, of course,
| dominated as always. by Mother.
who will be on hand to see thar he
does not overstep the bounds Of good
nature and get himself into all kinds
of troubles. Father" as most Of his
admirers are prone to admit, is an
Iaasy-going, recalcitrant and yaccilat-
Ing sort of human. Despite all these
shortcomings he is not quite the fool
IS his friends or rather acquaintances
might be inclined to believe, This
/ has been proved in the past as it will
no doubt be shown in this instance.

lated the role of Father before. will

quate and competent east is Tom At
taway and Louise Wolf There will
lalso be a large chorus composed of
/ fifteen dashing, stunningly gowned
and beautiful young women. From
al accounts this fifth edition Of the
reproduction Of the popular cartoons
in stage form bids fair to exceed ali
previous efforts. AT least this is the
aim Of Manager Hill

pE,uTIFYrNG HIGHWAYS

The city federation of women's
clubs Of Fort Worth, Tex, is man
aging a flower-planting campaign
along the Camp Bowie Boulevard
ssveral hundred school children are
happily engaged in the work OF
beautifying that highway. They are
planting flowers and shrubs. FIVE
hundred trees also will be set out
with the expert guidance of garden
ers and landscape architects.
There ought to be more oil this
highway-beautifying business all
over the country. Every highway
shonld be bordered with fine trees
and flowers.
or course there are difficulties in
the way Of this, as there are in the
way of everything worth While
Some one must be responsible Tor
caring for the trees and flowers, for
keeping them trimmed and watered
and neat. The women's clubs seem
to be assuming that task in the case
of Camp Bowie boulevard.
There is a public sense OF respon-
sibility, too, which must be develop
ed. in order to keep of the ruthless
hands of the few people who can
never see lovely flowers or shrubs or
trees without a desire to destroy
them. If wild flowers and hardy
plants native to the locality are to
thrive along a public highway there
can be no indiscriminate pulling OF
flowers and tearing up by the roots
Surely these destroyers Of natures
beautles are growing fewer every
year. A campaign against them ant
a development Of community pride
in the fine appearance of the public
roads Of any locality will greatly re
duce the evil.
When a new highway is proposed
practical plan for its adornmen
might well be taken up along will
the plans for surveying and payinl
construction.

KEEP THE CAMP GROUND

The Chamber of Commerce, in
voting to abandon the free automo
bile park, which has caused so much
favorable comment from auto tour
lists, will surely deprive Grants Pass
OF much good advertising. The
claim that 1t Injuries the hotel bus
iness cannot be substantiated. Tour
lists who are provided with camping
equipment will camp, whether it be
at Grants Pass or elsewhere. II the
beautiful grounds on the banks of
the Rogue are denied them they
will find some other spot. In years
past parties of automobile tourists
have made Grants Pass their head
quarters for weeks at a time, buying
groceries, dry goods, clothing and
automobile supplies as their needs
require. They patronize the hotels
and restaurants occasionally. With
the camp ground eliminated they
will pass on to the next town.
The excuse is also given that CAL
ifornia has cut out the. free camp
grounds. True. That is the cause
Of much unfavorable comment by all
automobile tourists. Why follow

EAGER TO SEE ELEPHANT
First one That Was Brought to the
United States Aroused the Ut
most Curiosity.

Nowadays, when summer in the
United States would hardly seem itself
without the coming of circus, it Is
difficult to realize the excitement
aroused by the first exhibition of an
elephant. A now-forgOtten Snowman,
Hackaliah Bailey, is said TO have i'm
ported the first elephant nearly hun
dred years ago, and the animal was
a whole show in himself. The circus
tent had not yet come into being, and
the elephant was shown in barns in
the Eastern states that then held the
bulk of the population. To prevent the
public from seeing the show without
charge, the elephant travelled from
place to place in the night; but even
so, the public refused to be wholly cir
cumyented, and small companies gath
cred with bonfires ready to light when
the strange creature came numbering
past on his way to the next town.
Sometimes, however, the management
defeated this intention by sending
along the road horse built up to look
like an elephant in the dark, and when
the bonfire had been lighted and had
burned out, the real elephant followed.

The WAY TO the Pole.

Service with the American air
forces in France adds weight to the
opinion of Donald j.. Macmillan, Arc
tic explorer and leader of the Crocker
land expedition, that the airplane is
not adapted for a dash to the pole
and that the cost Of such trip by
dlriglble would be prokibitive. In his
own future explorations, Mr.. MacNIiI-
Ian says, he expects tC depend on the
"ever-faithful dogs" for conveyance.
The airplane is, in his Judgment, i'm.
practicable for several reasons, one of
which is, he says sufIicten: 10 dis
count the idea Of successful Arctic
exploration by hardy airmen. The
frozen north offers no smooth fields
of ice on which the explorer could
make landing. A dirigible might
start from properly equipped hangar
in Labrador and hope to return, hut
the total cost of the expedition would
probably be about $1,O00,0U0.
