GOAT GETS FAIR STARS
NANNY BY BUTTING TACTICS
Animal Fails to Appreciate
Value of Publicity Until
Carrots Are Forthcoming

Patsy Ruth Miller's goat got
her goat" coincident with the
filming of the "Hunchback of
Notre Dame" at Universal City.
Throughout the scenes Miss Mil
/ Ter, as Esmeralda, is accompani-
ed by the goat. The publicity de-
partment wanted some specially
posed photos of Esmeralda and
the animal. She was agreeable
and it was assumed the goat
would be also.
When the time acme the pho
tographer arrived and posed
Miss Miller and then started in
on the goat. Now it seems that
Mr.. Goat had been used to car
rots as a delicacy and it insisted
on mistaking the yellow tassels
that hun gfrom the actress cos
tune for the succulent vegeta-
Bile. When the tassels failed to
yield the proper flavor, the goat
became peeved and evinced his
Ill humor by butting.
After many unsuccessful eff
forts to induce the goat to aban-
don his ungentlemanly tactics. a
hurry call was sent for carrots.
Upon their arrival the goat was
persuaded to pose between nib
bles.
Miss Miller is a st. Louis girl
who has had a quick rise in pic
lures. She went to Hollywood
on a vaaction and was picked as
type by a director. Following
her first bit she played extras
for many weary months, then /
small parts, until thoroughly /
trained in her art, Her selection |
for the important role in the :
Victor Hugo masterpiece came /
as a surprise, but that the choice |
was a happy one was proven by
the unlimited praise received
from all the critics. 7
The show will be played two
more nights at the Orpheum--to-
night (Friday) and tomorrow
night.

Trout Grow Fast in Springs
at L an d Ranch, Oakley

Trout which were planted in the
springs at Land ranch a year age
now weigh a pound, we are informed
by Charles Clark. The rapid growth
OF the fish is regarded as evidence
that these springs or similar springs
near Oakley would afford favorable
site for a hatchery.
Oakley should have a hatchery
and can get one. Our trout fishing
can be made so good that sportsmen
will come here from all parts of the
world.
In many ways it is an advantage
To town to become famous as a
fishing resort. Travelling men, for
instance, would try to arrange their
schedules so as to stay at Oakley
as long as possible. This is just one
example.

rally, the prizes will be presented to
the winners in the competition In

In addition to printing the win
ming articles in The Herald, we plan
to put them out in circular form.
These circulars could be enclosed in

ON THEIR ROUNDS

Burglars entered the Coop We'd
nesday night and stole a few dollars
from the cash register, is is reported.
According to the report, the burg
lar entered through a rear window.
Tracks in the sand, it is said, indi-
cate that an adult and a child were
implicated. Perhaps the adult lifted
the child up to the window and re-
mained on the outside to assist the
child on its return with the cash.
This burglary took place nine
days after thieves entered Central
Market.

the forbidding aspect the actor sue.
ceeds in making the character hu-
man and pitiful. His daring poses
OH the projecting gargoyles of teh
cathedral, his bold descent, stone by
stone, of the front facade of the
great church, his hazardous swing
ing on the great bells at the risk of
his life, the gruesome scene of his
costigation in the market place, and
the pathos of his final act as, dying,
he rings his own death knell on his
beloved bells, are features, it is
said, that make 1.-The Hunchback of
Metre Dame" the most noted film
production to date.
In constructing the cathedral of
Notre Dame at Universal City on ar
my of carpenters, masons and other
mechanics, were employed. The
building is an exact replica in every
detail as the famous cathedral look
ed in 1882. 1t is declared to be an
extraordinary feat and an architec-
tural and technical triumph. In ad-
dition to the cathedral, other histori-
cal sets include exact reproductions
OF the Court of Miracles, Palace de
Justice, interior of the Bastille and
the seven noble mansions. This may
give faint idea of this, the accredi-
ted most important screen produc-
ton, not only in the history of the
Universal Film company, but of that
of any producing concern in the
world. Wallace Worsley was the
director.
Among the other principals in the
big cast are: Norman Kerry, who
plays 'Phoebus;" Tully Marshall, as
Louis XII" Raymond Hatton, as
"Gringoire;" Nigel de Brulier, as
Dom Claude" and Gladys Brock
we'll as the crazy "Godule.'
With "The Hunchback of Notre
Dame," it is said, that different
picture" has arrived, one that marks
he dawn of a new era in cinema art,
md one that has made Carl Laem-
nle's slogan of better and finer
an absolue fact.

District Federation of
Women's Clubs Will
Meet Here This Year

The members of the Women's Civ
ic cclub feel that it is not too early
to begin making plans for the annu-
al convention of the First District
Federation of Women's clubs, which
is to be held in Oakley this year. A
definite date has not been set, but
IT, will be some time early in the
fall, possibly in September This
will be very important meeting, as
the district officers are to be cleo
ted at this time; also the state pres
ident will be named.
This will be the means of bring
ing a good number of splendid wo-
men from all over southern Idaho to
Oakley. We know of no better way
to advertise our community than
creditably to entertain these women.
And in order to do this, we must
have the cooperation of the people.
fol we realize that il is a big under
taking. With the proper support
we can and will put this over"
At the next meeting of the Civic
club, which will be held at the
home of Mrs NJ H. Halverson, plans
will be outlined briefly for the pro
gram. A full attendance is desired.

THE Hunchbacqk of N o e
ded film production of Victor HUI
go's story masterpiece which swept
into overnight fame in New York,
was given its local premier at the
Orpheum Theatre last night. That
it is the greatest picture that ever
came to town is the opinion ex-
pressed by the crowd that saw it,
Manager Simmons deserves our graf
itude for bringing us 'the greatest
picture in the world--and at prices
cheaper than people are paying else
where to see this same picture.
Never before, it is said has there
been offered a picture production
representing so stupendous a cost

full in the acting of it's seventy-five
principals, two hundred sub-princi-
pals, and in the handling of the mob
scenes in which more than 1000 per-
sons take part.
Lon CLANCY, admittedly the finest
interpreter of unusual character
relies on either stage or screen, plays
the stellar part of "Quasimodo," the
deformed bell-ringer of Notre Dame,
with Ernest Terrence as "Clopin,'
the underworld king; and Patsy
Ruth Miller as "Esmeralda."
Carl Laemmle, who founded Uni
versal City out in Southern Califor-
mia, it is said, has achieved some
thing there which awakens the ut
most admiration. He has taken HUI
COS rather melodramatic novel, and
after building a replica of Paris ia

pictures that hold the attention and

WHY NOT "CiTY OF ROCKS"
NATIONAL MONUMENT?

Last week, President Coolidge
signed an order setting aside
"Craters of the Moon" between
Carey and Arco, as a national
monument. Without attempting
to disparage the attractions f
the lava country. we believe that
in the "City of Rocks" situated
between Oakley and Almo, we
have wonderland of scenic
values and natural curiosities
unsurpassed anywhere.
Frankly, we believe that "Ci-
ty of Rocks" should be set apart
as national monument, for the
enjoyment of the people of the
United States. AS a part of the
national monument should be in
cluded the five Independence
lakes-lakes of magical beauty.

That ii is time for Oakley again
to come to the front is the growing
opinion of business men of Oakley
! The fact that they hold this opinion
is itself a hopeful indication. For
the principal ingredient of success is
always just the will to succeed. As
soon as the merchants of Oakley
fully make up their minds to get
the share they should have OF the
business of the people of Oakley
and vicinity-they will begin to
make plans which will insure the ac-
tual getting and keeping of this
trade.
For towns as well as individuals
sometimes get into ruts. And a rut
is very much like a grave. The
principal difference between a rut
and a grave is that a rut is longer
than a grave. A rut is just as mar
row as a grave-and often deeper
and sadder!
When an individual or town
falls into rut, it's no easy matter
to get out. Some have declared that
it's mpossible-just as impossible
as to get out of a grave That may
ee true of town where every busi-
ness man is in rut, but it is not

fellows show signs of life. Perhaps
they will help to get the others out
