Sea Scenes Filmed Under
Adverse Conditions.
Great Difficulties Encountered In
Photographing Moran of the
Lady Lefty"

Many difficulties of an unforeseen
nature were encountered by George
Melford, Paramount producer. and his
cast of players in filming the sea scenes
in Moran of the Lady Lefty" featur-
ing Dorothy Dalton, which will be
presented at the American theatre
next Wednesday and Thursday.
The company left the Lasky studio
in Hollywood, for San Francisco, the
original locale of the vovel by Frank
Norris, expecting to return within
three weeks. Instead, they were in the
Bay City for more than FIVE weeks
making the exteriors.
Many of the scenes were taken
aboard two sailing schooners--a three
masted and a four-masted ship, These
had to be towed out from port every
morning to the open sea and towed
back in the evening, These opera
tons required from four to five hours
each day, leaving about four hours
shooting time daily,
In the morning, when the vessel
was being towed out, the tide was
coming in and in the evening,
hen the company turned
the nose of the ship homeward, the
tide was ebbing out to sea. Thus it
was necessary to buck" the tide both
going and coming, which accounts for
the time required to get to and from
the outer-sea location.
Then, when the location was reach
ed, II Dorothy Dalton or William
Marshall, the cameraman, weren't sea-
sick, a few of the highly dramatic
scenes OF the picture were made.

Cooperation Needed

Therefore, to make the project eco
.nomically feasible. the private lands
must be brought in in a satisfactory
way, and must not only agree to bear
their fair proportion of the aggregate
Nest, but must begin to show their
gAd faith by contributing the
amounts that must be raised private
ly in order that the power company
properties may be taken over The
acquisition OF these properties is the
next step in the project, and Secretary
Fall said that he stands today exactly
where he refused to sign the power
company contract, He is ready to sig,
il when the funds are In hand; he will
not sign until they are, and he is look
ing 10 the people OF Idaho to provide
those funds.
Secretary Fall says the language O.
the Interior Department appropriation

work under way on the American
Falls Townsite Is not to be interpreter
as committing the government to &c

to date has been spent in buying NJ

Must Meet Obligations

Secretary Falls made it clear that if
any settlers were laboring under that
idea they are badly mistaken, and are
in for rude awakening And he
made it equally clear that it rests
with the settlers of the proposed irri-
CATION project to determine whether
ars9ot the American Falls project shall
Vie built II they proceed in good
faith, .organize their district. obligate
themselves and then raise the funds
pledged but never paid by the irri-
CATION companies, all we'll and good;
the project will go forward. If they
do not meet their obligations the pro-
ject will be doomed.
Secretary Fall takes the position
that so far as the government alone Is
concerned, it is not justified in the
expenditure of $15,OOO,OO0 in building
the American Falls project, because
in building this project the government
must drown out or overflow 70,00t
acres of land now largely in private
ownership and only 10000 acres ol
public land can be reclaimed unde'
the project proposed. Roughly speak
ing, from purely government stand
point, the building OF the projec'
would mean increasing the cultivated
area less than $4,000 acres, net, anc
that acreage alone would never justif,
the vast expenditure.

WASHINGTON, April l7-"The

The plain statement was made by
Secretary Fall today when his atten-
ton invited to dispatch from Ida
no stating that many settlers under the
project were inclined to back down
on the proposal to form one large
comprehensive irrigation district to
take over and discharge the obliga-
ton previously assumed by the irri-

RUTH DRAPER VERSATILE.

It is enough to have memorized thirty-four character sketches which have won popularity on the stage, but to have written them as we'll only adds to the laurels Of Miss Ruth Draper, who is to appear in recital at the Senior High school here on Thursday evening" April 26, under the auspices of the Business and Profess sional Women's club.
 Miss Draper, it is said. never uses any but her own material. She says she does not know where she gets the "plots," they just come to her She never searches for material For instance her sketch Love in the Balkans" was suggested by a shawl, a wildly colored wrap sent to her by a friend. She saw in it's colors the fire and passion of the Balkan peoples and the sketch immediately suggested itself
 Miss Draper carried the thirty-four sketches entirely in her memory until this year, when they were set down in writing in order that they might be copyrighted.

The Price Is s1O65,

because friction and vibration are the chief destructive agents in mechanics.
 You have only to ride in the best four that was ever built to realize its fundamental imperfections.
 The Four must fight" to get under way. It delivers series of vicious, stabbing blows on the crank shaft. In consequence, the en- tire car throbs and vibrates like tuning fork
 How long, do you imagine, can any mechanism remain staunch and tight under such punishment?
 Fours will rum of course. But how do they run? And how much genuine satis- faction is there in the running?
 Isit anerveracking gchug-chug-c or tho soft, thrilling purr of overlapping impulses.
 For these reasons, and many others, theNewJewett is six with mighty reservoir of fifty horse power
 It will sweep you over the road at sixty miles per hour if you like, or amble along at three. And, at either pace, you will travel as sensible people want to trave-easily, smoothly quietly.
 In spite of its amazingly low price, the Jewett is car of rare beauty, finish and appointment. It is stinging rebuke to the place designs of tho popular priced field.
 Best of all it is built as all Paige products are built to serve you faithfully and with deep respect for your pocket book.
 But come in and see the Jewett for yourself Come prepared to ride with us. For that is the one way that you can experience the thrill of commanding fifty horse power six cylinder motor.
 That is the one way that you can actually know and appreciate the Jewett.

The New Jewett Light Six is now on exhibition in our show rooms.
 To you, and everyone who is interested in motor cars we extend very cordial invitation to see this car and arrange for a demonstration.
 And we do not hesitate to say in advance that you are going to be surprised, delighted and not little mystifled.
 You are going to be surprised because the Jewett is all that you have imagined-and great deal more.
 You are going to be delighted because it is the very car that you have hoped tor and waited for-these many years. You are going to be mystifed because you Twill, for the first time, view fine quality six at the price of four.
 To produce this car and sell it for s1O65, f. O. b. Detroit has required years of study and all the ingenuity and resources of the Paige Engineering staff.
 Itwouldhav been simple matter to com promise on four cylinder construction and thus achieve a popular price But mere price was not the aim and the Four can no longer be considered in terms of fine engineering.
 This is the day of six cylinders because the six is an inherently balanced mechanism. The natural balance and overlapping power impulses mean smooth, even, vibration less riding qualities.
 These, in turn, mean maximum economy
