ACTION APLENTY IN THE
WOMAN GOD CHANGED"

There is action aplenty in The Wo-
man God Changed. Ii Is that sort
of dramatic action that thrills the
blase spectator and makes him sit up
and notice. Every scene. however, is
consistent and the logical sequence of
incidents is highly artistic. Here are
some Of them.
When Anna Jansen, beautiful
dancing girl, sacrifices her career to
become the common law wife of the
man she loves.
When, maddened by his neglect and
her jealousy of another woman, she
kills him and makes her escape to
Tahiti. where for years she lives in
fear of ayenging justice.
When she Is finally arrested by
Thomas Mccarthy. a detective, and
placed on board steamship to re-
turn home for trial
When the steamship is wrecked by
fire and explosion. Anna and the de-
tective being the only survivors,
When they float on a spar to an is
land and after years of association
espouse each other.
When vessel is sighted. Mccarthy,
who loves his wife, refuses TO light
the signal fire because he fears to lose
the woman he lives Anna herself
lights the fire and both are rescued.
When Anna is convicted of man
slaughter and sentenced by the judge
to the permanent custody of her hus-
band with whom she returns to their
island home. both regenerated. Al

train service ON this line has been
started by the bureau OF railroads Of
the Twin Fails Chamber OF Commerce
and the aid Of the Filler Commercial
club is sought in the matter.
copy of the resolutions has been re-
ceiyed by the secretary. action on
which will be taken az the next meet
ing OF the club.
The resolutions as proposed for APP
prevail by the Filler Commercial club
10 be addressed TO the o. :. l.. railroad
company are as follows:
Ballast Necessary for Entire Line
1. Anyone familiar yith the sea
sonal conditions of Southern Idaho,
know that the entire time from May
10 October the native soil Is dry and
dusty and the weather hot. The high
temperature requires that all win
dows ON trains be kept open. The I'M
ballasted road bed becomes literally
a dust patch and the moving train
picks this dust up Ia quantities ant
completely mandates the riding pas
sengers-
People coming into the ri.er coun-
try are disguised with this introduc-
ton 10 our community. Prospective
home-seek ers are driven away and
eur home people suffer this unhcalt-
by and unsanitary punishment
In 1919 this branch shipped out
$4,000. 0O0 worth OF farm products
which must have represented al least
$1,000. 900 in freight receipts TO the
company; and at the same time evil
IDENTIFY at least 81 goo eco In revenues
must have been received at this pc
riod for passenger fares.
Such heavy traffic and income
from the Investment undoubtedly Jus
titles the ballasting OF the entire road
bed from Minidoka To Bull.
Request for Better Accommodations
The character OF day coaches con-
stituting the regular passenger
trains is very inferior To the standard
of the class OF people using these ac-
conmodations.
These coaches are small. the seats
small and close together. the heating
plants inferior and Inadequate ana
the ventilation poor Also the ac-
tual mum Der of seats Is often insuf-
fieient for the convenience OF those
travelling.
Request for Improved Transportation
Facilities on Minidoks Branch Line
Be il resolved by the Filler CONNER
cial club:
No. /. That train equipment be
furnished for the Minidoka branch
line with more and ample seating ca
pacity for the travelling public.
No. 2. That the equipment OF both
trains be equal and on par TO stan
dard requirements.
No. 3. That both trains operate
the entire distance between P0catello
and Bull on schedule that is most
advantageous TO the service and the
public at large.
No. 4. That the afternoon train 10
Minidoka he advanced in its schedule
sufficiently TO connect up with the
through standard train No. 4. destin-
ed for all eastern points.
