"HIGH.CEAR JEFFREL" AT .
REX THEATRE TONIGHT

The headliner," High Gear Jeffrey"
showing at the Rex theatre today, is
full of action from start to finish.
This comedy-drama gives the popular
star a part, which he plays in man
ner, which is both daring and ampse-
ing. He simply let himself loose IN
it. The role Of the rich, happy--go-
lucky daredevil who lands himself a
chauffeur's job, the kind with kick
in it." which "kick"' knocks the bot
tom of some underworldsschemes and
wins him wife on the spur of the
moment-this is made order role
for William Russell. y..
The play starts off with his daring
leap from, the +,seats-of~ his -~father,s
racing, car, to the running board OF
another which was trying, to out-dis-
lance him. A rough and tumble fist
fight with the chauffeur, whom he
whips and throws out, paves the way
to his new job. This was just a
starter, the wind-up being his en-
counter with four yeggmen, and a
battle of wits right through. All of
the acts contain vivid, daring per-
formances,. which, it is said, were pre-
ceded by surgeons bills for disloca-
tions and sprains before some of his
neck-breaking stunts were~put over
to his and the directors satisfaction.
This picture was directed by Ed
ward Sloman, and the cast includes
Francelia Ellington, Clarence Bur-
ton, Harvey, Clark, Alfred Ferguson,
Lucille Ward and Charles Newton.

SO Per Cent
of Children
Are Underfed

That the dairy industry of
Oregon is the most important OF
the state and that so per cent Of
children of the country are un-
derfed, was the contention of F.
W. Merrill, secretary of the Ore
gon state dairy association, in his
speech to Salem business men at
the Commercial club this noon.
People are what they are be-
cause of what they eat" stated
the speaker, and c,,ed the in
stance of the most progressive
countries in the world as being
dairy producing and consulning
nations. In giving proof OF the
importance of dairy products as
a food, Mr.. Merrill pointed to
the boys state industrial school
where not two per cent Of the
boys are under weight and where
each boy consumes the equiva-
lent of two gallons of milk day
in the dairy products Of the diet
of the institution.
In schools Of the state, Mr.. Mer-
rill contended that 25 per cent
of the boys and 80 per cent OF
the girls were underweight be-
cause of not receiving enough
dairy foods, and that it had been
demonstrated with large num-
ber of students who were below
normal that after a period on a
dairy diet they had been brought
up to normal.
According to the speaker there
are 10000 men engaged in milk
ing cows in the state today, and
producing an annual wealth OF
twenty five million dollars. Be
cause of the demand for dairy
nroduce the farmer in this line
IF work has been free from the
burdensome financial difficulties
of other agriculturists.

country. Our climate here is
ideal and our soil is the best

Polk Highway
WorkIsAgain
Under Attack

Dallas, June 13.-Suit was fill
ed in the circuit court here Sat-
urday by Ernest Zeilesch and
others against Polk county, sndi-
vidual members Of the Polk
county court, the state highway
commission and various contract
ors who recently received con-
tracts for highway work in Polk
county, to restrain them from
proceeding with highway work in
this county in accordance with
an agreement recently reached
between the highway commission
and the county court.
While the principal objections
of the plaintiffs, all of whom are
residents of Independence and
the south end of the county, are
to the construction of the weed
side highway south of Monmouth
to the Benton county line, the
suit seeks to tie up the entire
Polk county highway program.
The plaintiffs assert the u--.n-
ty court has no legal right to ex-
pend market road funds on
state highway; that the county
court has no right to obligate
Polk county to expend more than
$4,000 on any one road project
without vote of the people, and
that the west side highway can
not legally be constructed along
any other route than that named
in the law of 1917.
