A Chautauqua of stars.

Just because managers say they don't
want any inexperienced beginners and
yet. In order to learn, an actress must
begin at some time. Isabel Withers. who
took the place Of Lotus Robb In
'Kempy." wants to establish dra-
matte Chautauqua. Also such a place
seems especially necessary because the
stock companies are having hard time
fighting the movies and the little the
aters have to struggle for existence.
Miss Withers. who acted In TIE Tav-
ern" also, says: "I believe thht II we
could organize a dramatic Chautauqua
TO meet each summer In or about New
York. where Mrs. Fiske. John Drew. Otis
Skinner, Robert Mantell, Viola Allen,
David Belasco. Arthur Hopkins. Mrs.
Carter and others preeminent In their
profession would lecture and act for the
newcomers In the profession, 1t would
be of inestimable benefit to the theatri-
cal profession. Imagine these players
appearing in the full play or scenes
from the classics of the stagei Imagine
the brilliant Mrs. Fiske drawing upon
her vast experience as dramatic star
GO advise the younger generation !
There is hardly dramatic star on the
American stage who would not become
interested In this symposium. The
teachers from all over the United States
meet I'm New York each summer. and
from every point OF tho globe teachers
OF terpsichcre meet here to discuss new
dances and perfect themselves. How
much more necessary is II for the pa~
ers of the stage to combine for such
benefits -

duty, started to board the craft, order

revolver in hip pocket, and simultan-
eously the launch was reversed. The
men had no time to board the launch
but seized it with their hands. While
they were being dragged back into the
deep current, Weiss welded a bottle
of liquor, and both Webster and Wood
were knocked loose from the boat, but
succeeded in regaining their holds. AS
Wood arose from a blow from a bottle,
which struck him in the forehead, he
saw the flash Of W:ess' revolver, Offic-

Motor Ordinances to be Revised

Action of the special session Of the
legislature in adopting a bill IN control
of motor truck and bus operators has
caused the city council to take steps
toward revising proposed similar ord-
nances to conform with the state stat
utes. The local ordinances were drawn
last year at the insistence Of estab-
lished bus lines here who asked for
protection against alleged scalper bus
concerns. The ordinances carried pro-
visions for heavy bonds and severe IL
cense fees.
The council members Tuesday night,
at the initial meeting Of the year, lin
tied its session chiefly 10 extending
New Years greetings to each other.

THE TUESDAY LUNCH CLUB

This youngest of Hood River organ
izations Tuesday by unanimous vote of
it's membership, decided to remain in
dependent of the Commercial club and
to eliminate from its activities any
that might properly come within the
province of the more general organiza-
tion. The action was we'll taken.
The Lunch club has been uniquely
appealing in that it has been mainly
social, its chief purpose the develop
ment of good fellowship among the
business men Of the city. The custom
of having each member preside at in
tervals, devoting some portion of the
hour to a frank discussion of some
hobby or some phase of his own bus
mess close to his heart, has brought
out some interesting moments for
those who listened. The sessions have
resulted in better understanding
among the business men of the city.
There is a place for the lunch club
as such an organization. If its intents
are to delve deeply and seriously in all
the activities that are presented to the
community, then it is usurping the
scope of the Commercial club and TAX
ing strength from that body, and prob
ably support. 1t becomes superfluous.
The members, apparently. do not in
tend that IL take such trend

Dean of Oregon newspaper writers

than does he of every phase of Oregon
rural life. from the Blue mountains to

Olson Bennett was n years old Sun

and body to most remarkable degree.
He has been and is a useful citizen.
We wish him many more happy birth

Bennett gave an interestingly modest,
sketch of himself. We reprint his con-

Mr.. Pierson was assigned to represent

organization as that established here

Eventually the bootlegger gets
caught. But it does seem that the
bootlegger has powers something like
the fighting myth of the ancients who,
when felled to his mother earth, arose
again, his strength doubled. When one
bootlegger is caught, it almost seems
that two new ones take up his illicit
task. 1t may be that nobody loves a
bootlegger, but oh how many remain
with lingering love of liquor, whose
thirst gives the moonshiner certain
asset?
