Tommy Fox could think OF no.

thought there could be no use IN
going back to the hole beneath
the big oak in the pasture unul
the next day, because Mr.. Wood
chuck would probably be afraid
that Tommy was waiting for him
to coma out. Yes-Tommy
decided that Mr.. Woodchuck
would stay in his house down
among the roots of the big tree
and not show himself again until
he felt quite sure that his enemy
had grown tired of watching and
had given up the idea of catch
ing him.
But Tommy guessed that by
another day old Mr.. Woodchuck
would be so hungry that he would
have to go out of doors again to
get something to eat. And Tom
my Fox could hardly wait for
the night to pass. But another
day came at last; and it found
Tommy up and hurrying to Far

Mr.. Woodchuck lived. It. was
Just growing light; and there
was a heavy dew upon the grass
which Tommy didn't like at all,
because he just hated to get his
feet wet.
Tommy did not go near Mr..
Woodchuck s hole. Although he
was just a young rox, he was
too wise to do that. He knew
that if he went nosing around.

old gentleman would smell his

head out. So Tommy was care

Board Takes
NoAction On
School Frats

With Chairman Harley White
and George E. Halvorsen absent
from the regular meeting of thf
school board held last night, nC
action was taken concerning al.
legged secret societies in the Salem
high school. An opinion on th<
matters of high school fraternitIss
which was submitted by Roy
Shields, school attorney, was Iu-
ceived and placed on file.
A special committee Icomposed
of Paul Wallace and Walter Wins
low was named by Acting Chair
man H. H. Olinger to gather de
tails concerning the proposed cree
tion of a manual training building
at the high school. With a separ-
ate building, it was pointed out
the space at present untitled in
the high school could be used fol
four class rooms. The new build
ing will probably be built in the
near future. It's estimated cost
will be approximately $4,000.
superintendent Hug was In
structed to confer with the state
labor commission relative to safe
ty appliances for the various man
ual training shops. Mr.. Hug will
make known his finds at the next
meeting.
The board voted to send Super
intendent Hug to Spokane the lat
ter part of this month to attend a
meeting of the Inland Empire
Teachers association. The con
ference will last three days.
The hiring of teachers for Sa-
lem schools will take place in May

A BRAVE LITTLE FILM STAR
How Did Lillian GiSh Battle Storm
in "Way Down East?"

The backbone of February was bro
ken. But the winter Of New Englanc
was still with us. February is .
treacherous month, and so it was
toward the end of last February ths,
Lillian Gish was turned out into that
New England snowstorm from the
house Of Squire Bartlett. And the
greatest OF all stage climaxes had be.
gun with this frail yet strong heroine
Of "Way Down East" as she was liter
ally swept out into Nights highway by
Gods elements.
That directing, low. commanding
voice of Griffith could scarce be heard
above the howl Of wintry blasts and
the binding snow clogged the air like
the vericst London fog. But out and
on went Lillian Gish inspired with the
staunch soul of Anna Moore within her
own.
SO great was the upheaval of the
elements that signals had to be used
between Griffith and his brave little
star. That magic word from the lips
and voice Of d. w. Griffith Of G A NJ
Z II A 81! pierced the howl Of the
winds and with an uplifted hand
through the binding SHOWS came
Lillian Gish staggering in her thin
raiment Of black. Little Anna was
weak. She was homeless, deserted.
In the walk one sees at the Alta thea
tire daily there is registered in every
tissue of that body and face what
misery and cruelty can be wrought
upon the human being in this world.
She struggles against the wind but the
gales swirl her from her feet and she
falls only to rise to try to move on to
some undiscovered place where there
might be surcesse Of strife from soul
and body. What you sec upon the
screen Of the cinema art at the Alta
theatre Of Lillian Gish as Anna Moore
vas no make-belieye suffering. 1t had
o be done and Lillian did it that we
night all realize it.

orchestra is to be shown

No Patronage, No Picture Shows

Unless the picture shows are bet
ter patronized Memorial hall will be
left without an income, according to
Manager 5. A. Barnes, who says
that for some time the attendance
has not been sufficient to maintain
the high standard of the pictures
regularly screened and yield a fair
margin of profit.
Manager Barnes declares that he
at all times has endeavored TO Sc
cure high grade pictures and that he
has not infrequently shown fifty
cent super specials at thirty-fiye
cents. He has not only given his
own time freely to the hall, but has
been out i considerable sum Of his
OWN money. In return the shows
nave been so slimly attended that he
is discouraged over the lack of APP
probation shown, and will no longer
serve as manager when through with
his present contracts. Only four
principal films remain.to be screened
and his responsibility will have
ended ''The hall is not my individ-
ual affair."" he says; "it is the COM
munity's affair"
The annual meeting will be called
soon, and it will then be up to the
members to arrange for
the continuation of the pictures, il
such be their desire. Mr.. Barnes will
soon have served one year as man
ager of the picture shows.

The Days Bond Market

The Tribune prints each day the ma"
ta3'ity dates of all actiUe bonds quoted
on the Neav Y orh Stocb; Exchange. The
return on a bond to the investor depends
upon three factors: the rate OF interest
the secu7ity bears, the market price
and the distance of the maturity date.
TO figure the precise yield oa a bond it
is necessary to use yield tables, but the
approximate yield can roughly be figured
out By the folIoacing formula: Divide
the closing quotation on bond auto
the rate OF interest it pays, and the re-
salt auiN be the annual return. If the
bond is selling beIo1o par you mast
altoqO also for the appreciation of the
principal. 10 do this subtract the mar
ket quotation from par, or 100, and d.
eide the remainder by the nAmber of
gears the bond has to run before ma
turity. For example, If q 6 PER cent
bond is selling at 80 aud has ten gears
to run, the annual return aoiU be 6.66
per cent. The difference between par
and the market price a0dI be 10 points,
subtracting 80 from 10O Deciding ten
points By ten gears, the quotient UiU be
1. This figure is to be added to 6.66,
qohich is the annual ret1e'n and the re-
salt is 2,66 per cent, aciU giVe you the
approximate yield.

Brazil Plans Increase
I'm Paper Money Issue

Steps have been taken by the Federal
government OF Brazil to relieve the
tightness Of money, which has beer so
long experienced, by authorizing tho
President of the republic 10 emit paper
| money up to an amount not greater
than 50,000,000 milreis approximate
ly $12,500,000). This fund, which is
"to attend to the urgent necessities of
commerce and production due to the
exceptional crisis is to be employed
for loans to states through the Bank
of Brazil, or through special redis-
count department., which shall be es-
tablished for this purpose, or in any
other suitable way. The period of
these loans is not to exceed one year,
with interest not over 8 per cent.
The government is also authorized to
apply the total or partial amount Of
credit raised to the benefit of national
production under the form Judged
most convenient; or to the establish
ment of special fund in New York
and London, of which 50,o00.000 milreis
may be used for buying and selling
bills of exchange, in order to attend to
the necessities Of legitimate commerce
and to prevent abrupt oscillations in
exchange,
The government will institute close
regulation and supervision of banks and
banking houses to prevent speculation
in exchange, allowing only legitimate
commercial transactions. Present re-
strictions on Brazilian exports of food
products of prime necessity are sus-
pended, but the government is author
lied to intervene at any time q short
age is imminent to purchase sufficient
stocks to supply the population in the
interior of the country, the necessary
credits being opened at that time.
OF great Importance to business in
terests in Brazil is the establishment
by Congressional decree of special
department. of the Bank Of Brazil for
emission and rediscount, to be entirely
separate from the bank proper Tin the
event that a separate bank is not created
for this purpose), to be under the
charge of director whom the Presi-
dent of the republic will nominate.
This department will be known by the
name of Carteira de Emissao e Re-
desconto. The limit to the operations
of this division will be 10o000,000 mil
reis, which amount cannot be exceeded
except under special conditions and by
the order of he President Of the re-
public.
