OYAPELA is INDIAN
MAID OF CHARM
AND CULTURE

Can you imagine an Indian girl in
native Indian garb, talking to you in
purest English-an Indian maid of
uusual culture and a charm of man.
ner which you might imagine is only
acquired from the colleges and "fn-
ishing schools?
Such is Oyapela, one Of the literary
minds of the Creek Indians. This lit
tie Indian lady is self-made in every
sense of the word. In acquiring her
education and culture she has accom-
plished difficult obstacles. Today as
a representative of the fast-vanishing
Greek Indian tribes, she also repre-
sents the highest type of culture.
Oyapela in native garb steps out
before you and gives an entirely new
impression of the American Indian.
She corrects the old theories and the
story-book impression of her people.
She tells of their myths and legends,
their hopes and ambitions, in most
fascinating style, and she sings their
love chants and their weird, haunting
melodies-and then she tells you just
what they mean. 1t is an entertain
ment which is educational as we'll as
entertaining, for it certainly puts the
American Indian in a new light.
With Oyapela will appear Miss Fan
ME Wienstock Of Milwaukee, violinist,
and Miss Gene Burton, pianist. These
accomplished young artists are fitting
assistants to the artistry of Oyapela.
The three ladies present a most un-
usual program because of it's distinct
originality. A feature of Oyapela's
work is her own Interpretation of
"The Wooing of Hiawatha."
Oyapela, which means Singing
Water" in Creek jargon, is the niece
Of one of the Creek Indian chiefs. Her

Monday, Dec. 5th, at the High School

co WEST, YOUNG MAN

Concord, N. H., Dec. Horace
Greeley said "Go West, young man."
Horace Greeley was native of New
Hampshire. Now New Hampshire is
calling out to the Middle West, "Come
East" In Ohio last month the New
Hampshire board of publicity started
a campaign designed to persuade
Ohioans to immigrate to this state
and do their farming on the hills from
which many of their ancestors de-
parted in response to the great edi-
tors advice.
Ohio was chosen as the first OBJ
jective because, the board says, at is
the nearest Of the four Middle West
ern states whose soil Is fully occupied
and which annually send forth set
tiers to unoccupied lands to their
north and west and because it's farm
population is of the highest order"
The campaign machinery was provid-
ed by the New Hampshire State
Grange, which was stimulated by
prizes donated by. former Governor
ROLAND Fl. Spauldfng. The board of

THE THREE MUsKETEERs


Has the motion picture reached a
turning point in its amazing progress
"a point at which it is making the
spoken drama obsolete? One dis
tinguished American critic frankly
begins to think so. And he until lately
has given the film Indifferent consid-
GRAFTON. His conversion came sudden.
ly the other day after he had seen a
picture which is coming directly to
Rialto while continuing it's triumphant
run in a special Broadway house.
This critic of art, literature and the
drama is Hayward Broun. He writes
in the New York World:
"The movies may be all right in
their way we hear again and again,
from people who don't go to them, but
of course they can't compete with the
theatre"
"And yet in our opinion at least one
will has already gone down before the
invaders. In watching Douglas Fair
banks in the picture version of The
Three Musketeers' yesterday we were
struck by the fact that the films have
fairly thrown violent melodrama off
the stage. No producer can hope any
longer to interest playgoers in lorna
does, free fights, forest fires or gal
Looping guns. The best which a the
atrical producer can do along these
lines is child's play compared to the
achievement of the motion pictures
The scene in which Fairbanks meets
the Cardinals best swordsman and
chases him first out of the shop and
then through the streets Of Paris un-
til with a triumphant twist of the
wrist he sends his blade flying high ir
the air, is the most stirring piece OF
sheer action we have seen in show.
"Again, there is undreamed of gusto
and scope in the mixed brawl between
the rival groups of Musketeers back
of the Luxembourg. In all such things
the theatre must resign itself to sec
ond place. 1t may very well adopt
the technique which Shakespeare en-
ployed in Henry " and frankly ad-
nit that battles are beyond it."
Motion picture folks would have
agreed long ago with Mr.. Broun that
battles are beyond the theatre, but
never beyond the film and Fairbanks
From the acclaim that has echoed
from the debuts of "The Three Mus.
ketters" in New York, Chicago, Bos,
ton and the one or two early show
ings of this picture, the verdict seems
to be that no one but Fairbanks coulC
have played it. He went in for il
with all his heart and made a million
dollar picture of ito be more exact
$700,O00.00 plus heavy distribution
costs. But he is cashing in on hi:
gameness and his gifts of drama, ant
is playing to such audiences that HI
has been able to go to Europe serene
in the thought that the picture will
still be running at home even if HI
remains away wear

SYRIA: UNDER FRENCH
AND ZIONIST RULE /.

Syria, for the control of the northern

mandate-holders, and the southern part
of which is settling quietly under Zion

with so many races intermingled
through the centuries of the various
conquests and occupations that the
people cannot claim any one race as
their own.
Greek, Roman and European crusad-
er have all blended with the ancient
Semitic stock to produce the Syrians
of today, whom Lord Cromer, in his
memoirs, termed Hthe cream of the
East"
In Syria was the one green spot of
Turkey-the Lebanon mountains. In
ancient times the mountains were ev-
erywhere covered with forests. The
cedars of Lebanon not only furnished
timber for the building of Solomon's
temple in Jerusalem, but the kings of
Egypt annually floated large rafts of
logs from the Syrian coast to supply
the demands of the cities of the Nile
This constant demand from foreign
lands, together with the lack of any
system Of reforestation, has practi-
cally denuded the mountains Of the
whole land.

and hills with pine and cedar and
oak wOull be simple task jf carried

control this work is now being under

CORK: MOST IRISH CITY
IN IRELAND

Cork, third city of Ireland, con-
siderable part of which was recently
destroyed by fire, bears a very super
fetal resemblance to our own New
York in that it's nucleus is situated
on an island enfolded by two arms
of a river where its waters meet
bay. The comparison soon becomes
a contrast however, for Cork is city
of less than $4,000 souls, has few pub
lie buildings or thoroughfares of i'm
portance, and was built on low,
swampy site instead of on the rocky
ribs of Mother Earth.
The stream that enfolded Cork be-
fore it grew across its watery bar
riers Is the River Lee which rises i'll
a little lake to the north. From j
tiny island in the lake came the pious
hermit, st. Fin Barre, who established
a monastery on the island at the
mouth of the river in the seventh CEN
tury, and from this start the present
city has grown. Both the Catholic
and Protestant cathedrals of Cork are
dedicated to this early Irish saint.
At. the head of one of the finest
harbors In Ireland-a land-lOcked cove
whose waters are as placid as those
of lake-Cork has been subject since
it's establishment to attacks by sea
marauders.- Invading Danes burned
the city in S21 and again in 1012,
and after the second destruction
founded on the site a Danish trading
post. The Irish, again in control of
the city, submitted to the English in
1172, who for many years maintained
a precarious foothold.
The Irish eventually regained Cork
not by force Of arms but by ''inflltra-
tion," for before a great while the
one-time English post was the most
Irish city in Ireland, its government
entirely in the hands of the people
of Erin.
A tragedy overlook Cork the year
Columbus discovered America, and
was visited most heavily on its lord
mayor During that year the city re-
ceived and assisted Perkin Warbeck,
pretender to the English throne. The
mayor lost his head and the city its
charter.
Cork's wonderful harbor has given
it a maritime Importance since early
days. Recognition of this fact is seen
in the title Of admiral of the port
bestowed on the lord mayor of Cork
by Edward ~ and held by the lords
mayor to the present day.
Queenstown, at the head of the outer
harbor, and practically a part of Cork,
Is. the port of call and departure for
transatlantic liners. This fact has
made Cork a city of sadness to many,
for perhaps a million or more men
and women, in largest part mere boys
and girls forced by economic pressure
to emigrate, have there hidden good
by with set faces and streaming eyes
to the land they love so well.
