sion near the old pump house cor
ner. The front wheels were torn
from under the bus and it tipped
over on its side and the bug was
badly demolished. Fortunately,
none of the school children were
hurt beyond few minor bruises
and a bad scare. Wright received
bad scalp wound but DR.. Spauld-

FARMERS GET VALUABLE
INFORMATION AT INSTITUTE

From the standpoint of attend
ance and interest. the horticultural
and agricultural institute held In
White Bluffs Thursday was prob.
ably one of. the best of it's kind
ever held here and the subjects
were all ably handled by the speak
ers.
P. A. Combellc of Kennewick
gave very interesting and instruc-
tive talk on orchard heating. Mr..
Combelic is grower at Kennewick
and he devoted almost all of his
time at the institute to telling of
his experience in working out q
prevention of frost damage with
the various types of heaters. He
said he found that the heater man.
ufactured in Kennewick was the
most satisfactory and economical.
This heater burns briquets and sells
in Kennewick for 55c. Mr.. Com
belle said he believed that 1t would
pay the growers of all soft fruits
in this and the Yakima valleys to
use heaters in their orchards and
that apple and pear growers would
find it a good investment to use the
heaters where the orchards we're
located in low places. or those SUBJ
ject to frost.
DISTRICT Horticulturist E. E. Hill
of Prosser read an interesting pa
per on tree planting and, using the
statistics in his paper as basis.
left no doubt in the minds of. his
hearers as to the comparative
profitableness of the various kinds
and varieties Of tree fruits. This
talk contained world of informa-
tion and was exceptionally interest
ing to orchardists.
A. T. Lovett. county agent for
Yakima county. held the close at
tention ard interest of the dairy
men during his discussion of dairy
subjects. Mr.. Lovett is not much
of,a believer in purebreds for the
average dairyman. but urged the
keeping of only good cows, con-
tending that the average cow does
not pay. He gave the dairymen
good many things to think about.
W. l.. Close gave talk on oil
spray and what experiments in re-
cent years had shown might be &C.
complished by the use of this spray.
Altogether. the institute was
highly interesting. instructive and
satisfactory and it is to be hoped
that similar meetings can be held
here In the future. -. go

ME|CHAN STARS
f. ON EMPIRE
SCREEN

The Empire began its new week
yesterday with the latest Thomas
Meighan story 'The Man Who Found
Himself as the principal attraction.
Booth Harrington, inimitable hum
orist and fictionist whose style seems
to fit perfectly the good luck" star,
wrote THE Man Who Found Him.
self" especially for Meishan. 1t is n
story of the type that first endearcd
the star to the picture going public
a story of mo count" whose casy
going ways and genial disposition
makes him mark" for his more de-
signing associates who would use him
to their own ends no matter to what
lengths it becomes necessary to go.
In this production Meighan is seen
as the hnppy-go-lucky son of small
town banker with ideas of his own as
to how the banking business should be
operated. He associates with the
high hat" crowd much to the disgust
of his father and everyone else con-
cerned in the bank who do not realize
that he has been responsible for some
large accounts coming to the bank.
As the story proceeds some interest.
ing angles dcvelope. Tom goes to pris-
on for the wrongdoings of his brother,
becomes trusty and then breaks
JAIL when he learns that his former
sweetheart is about to marry the very
man for whom he is serving his SEN
tence. 1t is at this point that the
story takes on real dramatic qualities.
Humor. however, is the keynote of
the entire picture, and Meighan admir-
ably fills the part of the easy going
character who would rather ride with
the tide than resist.
Lloyd Hamilton comes again to the
Emire screen in his latest comedy

Barbara aMarr Stars in
Perturbation Of Novel
I! By Galsworthy.

John Galsworthy's daring novel OF
modern marriage, "The White Mon
Key" has been adapted to the screen
and will be the principal attraction
at the Rialto Theater this week. Beau
tiful Barbara La MARI is cast in the
part of the frivolous wife who, while
married to one man, is reluctant to
give up her other admirers.
AS book this story was a sensa.
ton. and the tale has lost none of its
force in translation to the screen. The
locale is in England Immediately after
the World war and most of the set
tings are the haunts of the idle rich.
The tale centers on six principals !:
an indulgent father. anxious to salts
fly his daughters every within and
spelling her in the process; the daugh-
ter. a beautiful, impulsive creature,
more intent on her own pleasure and
satisfaction than anything in the
world and never giving thought to
the misery and discomfort the gratifi-
cation of her desires brings upon
others; her husband, a man OF bust
ness integrity and family fidelity his
friend. who loves and pursues the
wife and beautiful girl of common
parents who is the wife Of a shop
clerk but imbued with ambition for
higher things.
The twining and INTERVENING of
these characters is so cleverly done as
to make for exceptionally fine drama.
The situation lead to a climax that is
as surprising as 1t is unexpected.
Particular attention is called to the
scenes enacted in an artists studio
as startling in effect and gorgeous in
costuminR.
A supporting cast Of unusual merit,
including Charles Emmett Mack,
Thomas Holding, Henry Victor. Florc
lie Breton and many others carry the
principal foreground parts.
A two-reel comedy, the usual Fox
News. Pathe Review and the scenic
reel will complete the program.
