FOREST MEN GET BUSY
UPON GRANT Co. ROAD

That the forestry service is deeply
interested in the Grant county road
land seeminSlY ready TO act is indicat-
ed by a phone message from District
Forester Cecil TO Judge I. NJ. Schan-
aep tolay. In his message Mr.. Cecil
said that Mr.. Farmer. of the bureau
of public roads will be in Pendleton
Friday to so over the proposed new
route in company W tn District Engi-
neer Baldock of the state highway de-
partment. The forestry bureau is
seeking a survey of the route and it is
the presumption that the survey made
by the state highway commission will
be used after being gone over and
brought up to date.
After the survey is in the next step
will be to secure if possible the letting
of a contract for use of $4,000 Of
forest money and the $65.000 of coun-
ty money available for the road. There
IS private advice to the effect that if
this ,an be done this year another
$4,000 may in all probability be Sc
cured from the forest fund next year
This is the goal in view and therefore
it may be possible TO let contract for
work on the new grade down Camas
creek, though it may not be possible
to do the work this year.

up The helper was also burned, but
his injuries were not serious enough
to prevent him from working today.
Mr.. Rothrock was in Pendleton this

RIVOII TODAY
CONSTANCE TALMADGE OFFERS
DELIGHTFUL ENTERTAINMENT
IN ltDlILX ON lNIIIE EAI IIcGt


If you like Constance Talmadge-
and It's an odd-on bet you do-youl
be enchanted with "Polly of the Fol.
lies" the First National attraction
which opened run at the Rivol
Theatre yesterday, and which is Miss
Talmadge's latest star ring picture
It's a little gem of comedy-drama In
which the naive star does some of the
best acting of her career IN the hum
orous touches she adds to the original
scenario prepared for her by John
Emerson and Anita Loos.
There are thousands of Pollies In
America, all waiting for their oppor-
tunity to scintilate in electric lights:
but not all OF them have Polly's OPP
portunity. Some of them do. Some
of them meet the fate Polly encount-
ers and some of them call tell a diff
fcrent story
The idea of a country girl yearn-
ing for footlight fame is a snre-fire
angle and the authors and star have
evolved it from another point of view
than that usually found in such stor-
les.
The star adds some excellent touch
es to her naive delineation of charac-
ter parts and she is supported by an
unusually capable cast.

Camille" Is one of exceptional dram
attic force and one forgets the tragedy
of the theme in ones admiration OF
the artistic portrayal of the role of the
tlower girl by Miss Negri.
The story of ''The Red Peacock" is
that of a frail young woman who, to
escape her drunken step-father enters
the gilded circle only to live a vicar
Gus existence in which love, sadness
md ultimate tragedy find Their finest
artistic expression. The picture fasci.
mates by it's force, while the excellence
of the portrayals, notably that of Miss
Negri as Violette, hold one as by a
magic spell. Produced in Europe by
Paul Stein, "The Red Peacock" is
worthy of the attention of all screen

There were 1869 people by actual
count who were in the hills near Mea-

OF those present wanted very badly
to find berries, but others were anX-

those in this latter classification was

berries are said to be in prime condi-

How To Combat Garden Pests

The excessive drouth and hot days
of this summer are particularly fav-
orable to the development of insect
pests. The red spiders are especially
serious on beans, cane fruits, and
hops. though almost all garden crops,
horticultural and field crops may suf-
fer serious injury. Sulphur in some
form is the standard insecticide for
the red spider. For limited areas dust
sulphur, using if possible superfine
busting sulphur, will prove the easiest
"nd most practical treatment. For
hops. fruit trees, etc. where liquid
snrays are being applied, self-boiled
"atomic sulphur" or,
cery dilute U-1OO) lime-sulphur may
he used.-O. A. C. Experiment Station.
