New-York tribune., 1921-06-12
By Jesse L. L.asky

Vincent Blasco Ibafez in recently
published article makes the statement
that. without any doubt whatever, the
novel is the most important and char
acteristic manifestation Of modern
life.o
True enough, as far as it goes; but
just how far does the novel go? How
great part does it take in the mental
life of the average person to-day?
Whether we like it or not we must
admit that in this age of the automo-
bile and airplane, OF electricity, of the
wireless telegraph and telephone, in
deed, actions do speak louder than
words! This being the case it is not
strange that science should have joined
hands with literature, and that the re-
sult is--the motion picture.
The great Spanish writer goes on to
claim that the novel plays ain Western
civilization the part that opium is sup
posed to play in the life of the East.
We need to dream, to create world
Of fancy more in harmony with our
hearts desire. Just as the Oriental
picks up his opium pipe SO the West
erner picks up his novel te live for a
few hours in an imaginary world
where he can escape from the common
place and annoying circumstances of
routine life"

Screen Is Public's
Instruction and Recreation

Screen Is Public's
Instruction and Recreation
Just 80 does a still greater public
turn to the screen for it's recreation
and instruction. The most popular
| novel, though it run into MANY
editions, can reach only a limited
public through the medium of the
printed page. But once let these
pages be translated into terms of the
screen, with real characters, living and
dying, SHINING and sacrificing, loving
and hating, and there is no audience
toe wide or diverse to be reached. The
old barriers to iterature-those of
distance, language and illiteracy, are
down forever. Any idea that can be
expressed in terms of action (and
what idea can't be?) may find its way
| round the world via the screen.
! If it is true as Ibanez admits that
a man may be hero without having
been to school," it is just as true that
knowledge of the three RS is not
essential to the understanding of a
great truth or human experience
| Courage, love, passion - these and
other emotions are the stuff of which
life and pictures are made, and the
language they speak is universal.
All that Ibanez says of the novel
Of its power, scope and fexibility-
may be applied to the motion picture,
for after ali the two acts are Curl
ously allied, since fiction is the basis
upon which most of the films to-day
are built. Indeed, the motion picture
art Is in a sense an art founded upon
other arts. When criticism falls upon
the motion picture this should be re.
membered. No matter how earnestly
the producer and director may desire
to pick the best and not the worst in
the novel and play, he must, after all
take what he finds and build upor
them for his finished product.
Actors of To-day VIII
Be Known to Future
with the dawn, Of the theater, we
have the dawn of civilization" Ibane2
goes on to say. Yet in the next sen.
tence he reminds US how feeting anc
| temporary the theater art is. Even a
brilliant and phenomenally successful
play can only remain in the public
eye for few years. Often its appea
is made possible only through the
personality, peculiar skill, or technique
Of some great actor, and actors art
not immortal.
Edwin Booth is remembered to-day
by few who saw him act. For the
rest of US he is only name. But the
future will know Bernhardt. Her
changing expressions, her vivid panto-
mime, her flashes of power and erao-
ton, these are preserved forever in the
films s. she has made. Her art need not
die with her. She will go on acting as
long as there are audiences to see her.
And so will the wonderful Barrymores
Likewise we have Roosevelt. The
boys of the future will be able to look
upon him as familiar figure-they
will love him because they see him
Think what we would give to-day if we
could see Washington or Napoleon OF
Lincoln in some great epoch making
moments or even look upon them as
they were in life.

browse bver. 1t never occurred to the
average man or woman to meet the
demands of the present and face the
problems of the future he or she should
know something of the past. Kings,
queens and statesmen of other ages are
day becoming familiar figures, living
over again for us their triumphs, their
failures and achievements. Probably
most of US thought of them and of their
times as dry facts in school books. 1t
remained for the motion picture to re-
kindle them with life and romance.

projects should cost Records show,
Mr.. Crawford added. that seldom were
any contracts let where the prices
were under the engineers estimates.
Under the new policy many proposals

ANTICIPATES Big BEAN
ACREAGE NEXT YEAR

Harry Driscoll, manager of the
Idaho Bean & Elevator company, OF
Troy, was in Moscow Monday on
business. Notwithstanding the fact
that conditions are supposed to be
somewhat quiet, Mr. Driscoll states
that business is good in Troy and that
there is a general spirit of optimism.
The Idaho Bean & Elevator COM
pany, although the bean crop in 1921
was not quite up to average, shipped
100 cars of the product, most of
which went to- supply the middle
states market. The year previous the
company shipped $50 cars. The price
of beans, which reached from 9 to
10 cents per pounds during the period
just following the war, has dropped
back to 31a cents. Even at this price
Mr. Driscoll believes that the farmer
will derive more profit from an acre
of beans that he will from an acre of
wheat In his opinion beans at from
8 1a to cents a pound are easily
equal to wheat at $100 per bushel,
while the beans will do more to main
tain the fertility Of the soil.
The prospect for next years crop
Of beans is excellent Mr.. Driscoll
states, the ground being put in fine
for seeding next spring and
the farmers expecting to put in an
large acreage.

MOSCOW BOYS MISSED
WRECK BY CLOSE MARGIN

AL Mariner and Carl Weiman, two
of the Moscow boys who were thought
to have been in the disastrous train
wreck on the O.-W. r. & N. last
Thursday morning, arrived at home
Sunday, while Melvin Cox, the other
member of the trio, remained at The
Dalles, Oregon, where the trio had
gone direct from here. Young Mar
ner visited the Star-Mirror office to-
day and said that the boys were just
"a hours ahead Of the ill-fated train,
and it is probable that a days lay
over would have cost them their lives.
A special train was hurried from
The Dalles to the scene of the wreck
at once, the three Moscow boys being
among those to visit the wreck, But
little had been possible in the way of
aid to the injured until the train ar
rived and young Mariner says that the
scene was a horrible one. The wreck
occurred in bleak wind-swept stretch
of country, nine miles from a station
The cries of the injured could be
heard above all other noises, while
the bodies of the dead could be seen
tangled up in the debris. The work of
giving aid to the injured was carried
on with all possible haste by the ply
sicians, the railroad men and others
and the injured were hurried to
hospital at The Dalles. The Moscow
boys did all in their power to aid in
getting the injured out of the wreck.

FROM kENDRICK STORE

Thieves entered the N B. Long &
Sons store at Kendrick late Saturday
night and stole large quantity of

that the robbers had an automobile in
which to carry the goods and make
their getaway.
While a complete check had not
been made up to Monday afternoon
Mr. Long in checking over his stock
has discovered the loss of four suits,
one overcoat, four mackinaws, three
sweaters, two leather vests and four
bolts of silk in addition to large
quantity of other goods.

MANY ATTEND ELKs'
MEMORIAL EXERCISES

A large audience gathered at the
Elks' temple Sunday afternoon to at
tend the annual lodge of sorrow Of
Moscow lodge of Benevolent and Pro
tective Elks. Owing to the condition
of the roads, the attendance of Elks
from other communities was not
large, the principal out-of-town rep
resentation being from Pullman and
Colfax.
The beautiful and impressive rit-
ualistic ceremonies of the lodge were
carried out including the roll call
of absent members, which grows
year by year, death having claimed
six members of the Moscow lodge
within the past year. Appropriate
musical numbers were rendered, and
the eulogy to the departed members
was given by Judge Edgar c. Steele,
a veteran member of the order, who
told of the ideals of the organization
in it's work for humanity and of the
work done by the members whose
memory the lodge had met to honor.
The memorial address was deliver
ed by Hon. W. E. McCroskey of Col
fax. Mr. McCroskey eloquently and
feelingly told of the good which has
been done for humanity through the
fraternal spirit through which man
sees his duty to man, and which is
inspired by the life of the Savior of
mankind. The address was able and
and the speaker had the
