East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1920-06-23

Pendieton's mounted cowboy patrol
in the monster Shriner parade in
Portland yesterday received great
ovation according to G. u. Randall,
deputy district attorney, who returned
this morning from q business trip to
Salem. The local Shriners were oblig-
ed to ride at the very first of the pa
rade, which. in Mr.. Randall's opin-
ion, detracted CONSIDERABLY from the
applause they would have received in
a more favorable position. The local
men had excellent mounts, he said.
and looked like. real cowboys but for
the fczzes which they were obliged TO
wear In the parade. Every man In the
line wore fez and it was the longest
fraternnl parade the coast has ever

The outstanding distinction that diff

predecessors was the unusually low

Mr.. Mantell has often thought he was
playing upon the old school apron

method. be It to conserve strength, or be
IL an awakened artistic conscience, is
highly effective.
One always feels he is striving to the
uttermost of his limitations to express
the conventionalities and traditions OF
Hamlet. holding nothing in reserve. in :
stead of trying to repress. as Hamlet
most assurcdly would, swelling passions
and outraged feelings from constantly
riding at hoodtide. Hamlet. there

It is; for his talent is robustly roman :

imaginatively poetic. Tonight as Lear

PIeases. Lyric Audience.

''The Man From Home" has come
back again, and the legion of his ad
mirers here fiocked to greet him. The
same gentleman who goes under the
alias of William Hodge arrived at the
Lyric after being snowbound and
forced to postpone his opening till last
night. irsta,
Mr.. Hodges newest play, "Tht
Guest of Honor" not only has him in
its leading role, but also claims him as
author and director. To be perfectl.
candid one can truthfully say that ''as
a dramatist William Hodge is fine

On the other hand, Hodge wa.

perfectly satisfied to accept a rather
trite play in a generous spirit because
OF the charm of the star. Time worn

Of Hodge, not once but often. His
scenes with little Graham Lucas, a
most naive and natural small boy. were
alone worth the price Of admission, and
there were many other agreeable and
touching bits of sentiment and good
humor.
Mr.. Hodges drawl, his stutter and
his calm poise have not deserted him, and
still produce droll and delightful effects.
At times the beholder could not help but
look to see the Grand Duke" of THE
Man From Home" appear upon the
stage at any minute so that the two
could play one Of their delicious scenes
together, but here is no "Grand Duke
only garret and numerous comic
relief" characters who do their best
with lines sometimes too ,frayed to be
funny.
The company that surrounds Mr..
Hodge with few exceptions is not up
to the standard of the star; but, then,
for that matter neither is the play, ex :
cept In so far as 1t is fitted to his per :
sonality. It's Hodge that counts, any
way. -f- g..

Musically. 'Xaza" is by no means
the equal Of "Pagliacci," and there is
much in It that is reminiscent Of that

the last act being too long for the high
tension required in it. There are some
excellent arias and scenes, especially
in the first. third and last acts, the

treats the voices in a manner very SIM

OBTAINS DELAY IN
 POWER RATE CASE

Succeeding at least in having the matter go over for some time, F. A. Jones, member of the corporation com mission, has won the gratitude of the people of Yuma in the matter of the application of the South Sierra Power company to more than double it's rates on power.
 The hearing was held in San Fran cisco, the California commission pre- viously having granted the company, which operates insCalifornia and Yuma, and the Yuma valley, the authority to increase its rates. The case came up on rehearing, objection having been made by the company relative to the valuation placed on it's plant.
 When the matter came up for re- hearing, Mir. Jones argued against the rate, which would be prohibitive in Yuma. He asked for permission to file d brief in the case. which was granted
 En route for Phoenix, Mir. Jones stopped over in Yuma and in an ad- dress before the chamber of commerce at that place clearly set forth the case which is of great interest in that section.
 MT. Jones said yesterday that while his plans for the future were fully ma tured. he was not ready to make any announcement. His term as commits sioner will expire Jan. 1.

Then with every Christmas letter, card and package, the message should go to every part of the good old U. S. A. Christmas messages should tell how the place we live IS making progress.

It will save a long letter and much worry. It tells the truth and gives in way which no other publication can the story of the growth and expansion of this part of Arizona.
 It goes back to early days and tells of the beginning of irrigation in this valley. It unfolds in it's pages the story of advancement year by year in all lines of community progress. It tells of the state as we'll as of the city and county. The description of the Roose- welt dam gives a picture understand : able to everyone, and it leads the reader on to a condition where in order to satisfy his interest he pust visit the valley in person to see for himself the progress made.
 Call at the chamber of commerce and hand in a list of friends, folks back home and fellow business men through out the east. Let them read of sun- shine while they are in the midst oi snowstorms. Let them hear about the winter roses of Phoenix and the Salt River valley while with them the trees are bleak and bare.
