of Bud Fishers famous cartoon char acters.
 There were number of youngsters present who laughed with the grown ups at the antics of the favorite conaed- ians. There was not a chance of the comedy going over the heads of the audience, for there was nothing subtle about 1t. It was frankly straight from the shoulder and honest as was the situations was the laughter with which the jokes, young and old. were met. There>was quite a bit of expected slap stick in three acts which developed the dream of Mutt and Jeff after hit ting the pipe in New Yorks China town.
 Mutt and Jeff were not the whole show, although . good big part of it. There were other familiar characters who had the opportunity of figuring in the plot and furnishing song and dance numbers that iivened up the en- tertainment. A chorus prettily cos tuned was another feature of Gus Hills production.

 The plot is a wonderful one. Per haps its sincerity is the most appeal ing factor It leaves one with that contented feeling. the realization that after all the world is just full of worth while things. But neither is it moral play, for it simply rippies with thrills and a spirit of adventure. It is the essence, of variety. that most eagerly sought for dramatic quality.

"A DamseI In Distress"-Lamara


 "A Damsel in Distress" brings Creighton Hale and June Caprice to the Lamara for the final showings to- day. This story is the picture version Of the Saturday Evening Post story of the same name, which will be remem- bered one of the niftiest bits of literature to be offered through the columns of that popular magazine. It is smashing good comedy drama, following the text of the written story in detail. It's humor is spontaneous as well as infectious, it's situations clev- erly drawn, and it's chara cters admir- ably handled. It will be found a most satisfying entertainment. On the same program there is being offered The Prospector's Vengeance a drama of the west that was, fast and thrilling.
 Tomorrow starts the engagement of the official pictures of the Pendleton roundup of 1919 These are the only authorized motion pictures of the event, and should prove highly attractive as well as thoroughly enjoyable. Her Boy will bring Effie shannon to the Lamara to round out the program, led by the roundup"

MAY BE PROPAGANDA.
United States Trade in South America
Not Lost

Buenos Aires, Feb 20--Some British
interests here have undertaken a pub
licity campaign in what has been re-
ferred to as "the great struggle" be-
tween the United States and Great
Britain for the markets Of South Am
erica. Especial kilograms" from
London, purporting to show that the
United States is losing her South Am
erican markets, or otherwise disparag-
ing the United States, have been graf
uitously distributed by British adj
vertising agency and have been wide
ly published in Argentine newspapers.
One Of the kilograms was a criti-
cism of Herbert Hoover for saying
that the European countries should
"work more and ask less of the Unit
ed States, The Telegram" made a
comparison between the losses sts-
tanned by the European allies in the

ions, as compared with those of the
United States and pointed out that
the losses of European countries had
reduced their productive capacity,
whereas the United States had not
suffered at al economically.
Another of these Especial telc-
grams" quoted the president Of the
British board of trade in London as
saying: 81 believe that the United
States is gradually losing the mar
kets gained when Germany was wiped
off the seas and while Britain was
fighting in the war. BriGain is not on

kets in South America and The Orient.

WOODS PLEA IS MORE
WORK AND LESS TALK
Rigid Economy in Administration of
National Affairs. A Budget
System.

Pierre, S. D., March 21.-Gen Leor
ard Wood, endorsed by the Republican
State convention for the presidential
nomination and United States Senator
Miles Poindcxter, Independent can,
date for the nomination, have met
here in the debate required by
South Dakota law Of all candidates
seeking presidential nomination il,
the State. Gen. Wood l'oced special
emphasis on "Americanism," while
on labor problems.
Gen. Wood made a plea for plat
form of "America first, through jus
tice and fair dealing and government
under the Constitution with each de-
partmcnt functioning within its own
limits"
Other proposals outlined by Gen.
Wood included:
A strong but not quarrelsome for
eign policy; tolerant, seeking peace,
but protecting the interest of Amer
leans wherever they are.
Sound Public Schools.
A sound public school system. An
adequate wage for our teaching force.
A careful regulation Of immigration
with a view of keeping out undesir-
able and dangerous elements.
Unqualified endorsement of woman
suffrage as something which will
purify and strengthen American pol
itics.
Rigid economy in the administra-
tion Of national affairs. A budget
system.
National and individual thrift habits
less talk and more work.
A small but highly efficietn regular
army.
Senator Poindexter said in part:
Industrial Servitude.
"The closed shop means closed op-
portunity. 1t means industrial servi-
tude both for labor and capital and
for the public The right TO work and
the right to own property are among
the inalienable rights of men and are
so designated in all the great char
ters of liberty.
Strikes intended to enforce econ
omy demands by stopping of industry
and cutting off from the people their
supplies of the necessities of life
mean rule by force instead of by
law"
The Senator said the two most vital
questions before the country were ma
tional independence and industrial
independence. The first, he said,
was menaccd by internationalism, and
the second by the closed shop.
"The war;" he continued, "was
fought to preserve the principle Of
nationality; the Kaiser proposed a
centralized government Of the whole
world. Having won the war, the
President would surrender that for
