Orphans in the Storm"
Is Gala Event for Oakley

"'Orphons of the Storm is ID. w
Grifflth's biggest" says Manager
Simmons of the Orpheum. 1T is
the most brilliant spectacle ever pro-
duced in America, and that leaves
nothing to be said. Based on the
stirring melodrama The Two Or
plans, with record of half centu-
ry's success, the Griffith film utili-
yes every bit of dramatic action in It
and displays it against a Titanic
background of action and atmos-
phere of the period-the French
revolutio They have hailed Or
phans of the Storm as a moving sto-
ry, swift in action, wonderful in his
toric interest, and filled with mas
terly sense of suspense and climax.
From my inspection of the picture
more than share the enthusiasm of
the critics. Not only has a great
spectacular undertaking been ac-
complished in the new Griffith film,
but it is played by a notable cast"
A large crowd attended the first
SLOWING of the picture at the Orphe-
um last night. 1t will be shown
again tonight and Saturday night.
Theengagement is to be made a gala
event in local amusement circles.

GIRLS EARS AGAIN
GRACE LANDSCAPE

Girls ears again came out in
TO the open as a part of the viii
lage landscape this week, after
a total eclipse of many years.
just how many years il has been
/ can't say, for | don't recollect.
Is IL five or ten? During this
period, girls ears have been as
scrupulously guarded from the
public gaze as were the faces OF
harem beauties in the good old
days before feminism invaded
Turkey. In fact, l will wager
that 0akley's boys of n very
young generation don't know
that girls have ears---or didn't
until Monday of this week.
And somehow IL seemed APP
proriiate that the sex that does
most of the talking should not
have ears. Perhaps the custom
OF conceaIing the ears was the
symbol OF militant feminism.
Ask Jiggs or Dinty Moore. Ears
were to be distinctive charac-
tefistic of men to enable them
TO listen to commands. Why
should girls and women have
ears?
But il seems that disuse did
not cause atrophy of feminine
ears, after all.
Miss Leola Fairchild and Miss
Bert Dayley were the first
Oakley girls to get that particu-
lar sort OF bob which uncovers
the ears.

Federated Clubs Meeting
Is Interesting Ev e n
(Contributed)

The twenty-fourth annual meeting
of the First District Federation OF
Women's Clubs of Idaho was held
at Oakley on September "a. 25 and
26, in the beautiful tabernacle.
About fifty officers and delegates
were in attendance. Among the
prominent speakekrs at the meeting
were:
Mrs. George, outgoing president of
State Federation, Occur d'Alene.
Mrs. NJ j. Sweeley of Twin Falls,
past president of the Western States
Federation, gave a very fine report
on the National Federation meeting
held in Los Angeles in June. Mrs.
Sweeley stated that there were over
500 delegates alone at this meeting.
Idaho sent 19 of these women.
Mrs. Catherine Athey, who is
member ofth commission on Tu-
berculosis hospitals for Idaho, gave
a splendid address on her work. This
talk was an awakening to all of the
ladies who heard Mrs. Athey. Idaho
certainly must have these hospitals,
and in the very near future at that.
Mrs. Athey is from Boise.
Mrs. Rosecrans of Burley, the out
going district president, gave very
fine address on the Indian situation
ia Idaho. A paper written by an ed
ucated Indian was read at this meet
ing. His plea to the people of Ida
no is, Do not make paupers of US,
but give us fair chance. A square
deal is all he asks. That seems lit
tie enough when we stop to remem-
ber that America was his before it
was ours.

CLIFTON DAYLEY
NARROWLY ESCAPES
Ell E CTR OCU u TION
Derricks Approaching 40
Fl. Should Not Be Moved
Under High Power Lines

Clifton Dayley narrowly escaped
with his life Wednesday when he
came in contact with a high power
line at Churchill. He and several
others were moving a hay derrick
for Mr.. Macarthur when the boom
pole caught in the line. Mr.. Dayley
threw chain up to the boom, but
r. some way it hit the power line.
The heavy current entered his bo-
dy, knocking him unconscious for
about fifteen minutes. His left arm
and left leg were burned and he was
badly shaken up.
Charlie Elliott, Idaho Power man
al Oakley, was called and he phoned
to Miner for the power to be shut
off before the derrick was moved.
The high voltage lines feed
ing Oakley are forty feet from
the ground and derrfcks ap-
preaching this height should
not be moved under the lines.
The remarkable fact about this
accident is that Mr.. Dayley was
not killed. III Wednesday had
been a damp day, 1t is probable
that Mr.. Dayley and all his
companions would have lost
their. lives.
The current entered Mr.. Dayleys
body with a snap and crack. The
noise frightened two teams, causing
them to run away. One team ran
five miles; the other, two.

Why Am | Living

Conan Doyle predicts that
the late President Harding will
try to communicate from the
spirit world, by mediums. You
will read more of this later, as
you follow the daily news.
The idea, of course, is that
Harding passed on before he
had finished his work here on
earth. and that he will want to
send back a guiding voice from
the Hereafter.
The matter is so largely spec
ulative that it can hardly be dis
cussed editorilly But, in pom
dering the rather abrupt death
of Warren C. Harding-a death
coming at the peak of his ac-
tivity-it must occur to many of
US that no man ever really fin
ishes his work here on earth.
We are withdrawn from the
scene just as we begin to reap

ALABAMA HAS LOWEST PER
CAPITA OF ANY STATE

1t will be news to a great
many Alabama Taxpayers to
know that their state has the low.
est property tax levy per inhabi-
tan of any state in the union and
yet such are the indisputable facts
as shown by the figures of the
United Census Bureau for 1923
The total property tax in Ala
bama per individual is 1888; Ne
vada shows the highest average
with $65.47 for each inhabitant.
These averages are obtained by
dividing their total assessments by
the populations of the various
states.
On the score of the total prop
erty tax levy per $4,000 of as
sessed value, Alabama ranks 31st
among the states of the union;
that is there are 80 states in the
union whose levy is higher than
that of Alabama. Florida out
ranks all the states both in her
property tax per inhabitant and
in her levy per assessed valua-
tions. The property-owner in
North Carolina is assessed at d
lower average rate than in any
other state of the Union.-Selma

Why Creep

Strip your walls of curtains,
window glass, paint. Move out
the davenport, phonograph,
magazines, telephone. Danish
pepper, salt, sugar and all but
home prepared foods from your
pantry. Go back to the flint
for your FIRE, the fields for your
bread, the sheep on the hills for
your clothes.
Without advertised products
your life would seem both hard
and drab, You would have lit
tie comfort or convenience;
know nothing of the means to
secure them. Unhelped, your
own ingenuities would terd to
limit your pace. You would
progress by limps instead of
leaps. You might not progress
at all.
Advertisements sweep you
on to enjoyments. Read them.
Know about advertised goods.
They give your life new ease.
You can pin your faith to the
merchant who advertises. He
puts his facts in black and white.
His merchandise is merchandise
of no regrets.

RECOGNIZE THE YoUNGsTER

This inquiry is addressed to
men and women who have reach
ed their majority and who have
made a place for themselves iE
the community.
Do you speak to boys and girls
of your acquaintance?
All too few can answer that
they do.
They don't give boys and girls
they know the friendly nod as
they pass them on the street.
It is not because they DONE
want to speak. 1t is due to their
thoughtlessness-just plain care
lessness.
How many will resolve here and
now never to pass a boy or girl
from this day forth without some
sign of greetings?
If you could but appreciate
what it means to the youngsters.
You can, if you will go back in
your book of memories and recall
the days of your childhood.
Remember the man or woman
who always knew you? To
this day you have a very fond re
membrane of those persons who
were never too engrossed with
their own affairs to recognize
you with nod of the head, a
wave of the hand or a smile.
You know how their word of
encouragement helped you along
when you thought your burdens
were heavy. You know that their
recognition made you feel that
you We're of some Importance in
the world, after all, and gave you
new grip on yourself.
Don't slight the boys and girls
who are going to be the men and
women of the community a few
years hence. Give them a boost.
Speak to them. It makes no
difference if you don't know their
name. The point is-speak -
