LAST BAND DANCE

A good crowd from White Bluffs
accompanied the band to the dance
given in the Highlands Club House at
Kennewick last Saturday night. The
band will play on Saturday night of
this week for dance at Benton City
So far as they know now, this will be
the last out of town dance to be given
by the band boys this season. The
new uniforms have been ordered but
the band is still about $3.50 short Of
having enough to pay for them. I'm

SUCCESSFUL LUNCHEON

Representatives from seventeen OF
the business houses in town were out
at the Commercial Club luncheon at
the Commercial hotel Tuesday.
These luncheons ar. an innovation OF
the Commercial Club held monthly,
and the one Tuesday was the first.
They are sort of gct-together affairs
for the purpose of friendly discussion
of community interests and problems
and they can have a wonderful influ-
ence for the promotion of community
progress where every one takes an in
terest. They are open to every one
and suggestions of all kinds regarding
constructive development will find
warm welcome. The luncheon idea
was started sometime ago and it is an
institution now in every town of any
size in the country. The date of the
next one in White Bluffs is Tuesday,

There is to be pubAc meeting Sun
day afternoon at the Brick school
house, according to information given
the Spokesman Thursday afternoon by
o. II. Allen. The idea Of the Sunday
meeting grew out of meeting at the
T. A. Spratlen home week or two
ago to which selected number were
invited. The purposes of the meet
ing Sunday are to form an organiza
ton to advance the interests of the
valley, straighten out the wat ,r prob
lem, to reestab blish the good name of
the district that suffered such a set
back at the time the state withdrew
from the land settlement project, and
to curb real estate activity, Mr.. Allen
said. Sounds like an ambitious prog
ram and the chance of success for the
new organizati ton would seem to de-
pend almost entirely on whether a
constructive or destructive policy is
adopted.

Famous Indian Directing.
chief WHITE HORSE, famous oil

chief WHITE HORSE, famous old
Indian who is playing an inn
portant part in the forthcoming
Pathe serial "The Hawk of the
Hills" in which Allene Ray and Wal
ter Miller are co-starred. has served.
as technical director in all the scenes
wherein the Indians appear. He also
has supervised construction of all
the camps, tepees. etc.
Miss Ray was interested in the
cold weather.
Chief White Horse explained how
the Indians built a fireplace right in
the center of the tepee. the rocks
being about the size of a mans hat
and placed i'm a circle about 3 feet
in diameter. This circular fireplace
was right in the middle of the tepee
and underneath the pointed top of
the tent. 70.
The top of the tepee is so arranged
that it will open as desired in order
to Let tie smoke escape. The tent
material when thrown back forming
the opening was always thrown on
the outside so that there would be
only continuous smooth surface on
the inside facing the smoke and fire.
The tautness of the tepee cover
ing. with its great slant. offered prac-
ticaliy no surface whatever for a
spark to do any damage. And the
draught afforded by the opening in
the tepee top carried both smoke and
sparks outside with scant danger to
the tepee itself.
Old Chief White Horse insists that
Indian tepees, with their open fire
inside of fiimsy tents. did not pro-,
duce nearly as many fires in prOpor-
ton as in the modern homes of to-
day.
The old-style Indian beds, he said,
were of pine boughs spread on the
ground. which. when properly made.
make a wonderfully comfortable bed.
Over this were laid skins of furred
animals and there was remarkable
comfort in an Indians home.

How the Camera Lies.

OUISE FAZENDA comes forward
II to assail the time-honored asser-
ton that the camera does not lie.
During the filming of Simple Sis
her latest feature for Warner Bros,
CLYDE Cook, the cameraman, repeated
this we'll worn statement.
"Oh, doesn't it, indeed?" responded
Louise, with sly smile and wink at
Director Herman Raymaker.
"Why is it. then, that red, which
appears so bright, and black, which
appears so dull to the human eye. give
the same effect when viewed by the
camera? Surely they aren't the same
color, but the camera is saying So"
"Oh. well. yes" said the camera
man, but that's little different. Yes,
you're right"
And so another time-tested axiom
fell. 1t is not even true that the cam
era registers everything it sees in
some tone or another, for If red OBJ
ject is placed against a black one it
will fade into it.
The cameraman is constantly striv
ing to see that there is no confusion
of background with foreground or one
object with another. To aid him, he
looks through little piece of blue
glass. which gives him as accurate an
idea as possible what the scene will
look like when photographed. Then
he adjusts objects, settings, lights. col
ors, to get the effect that he wants.

Some of the events recorded by

event, a review was held and recorded

taneously with the scene of action.
What proved to be the greatest sen
sation was the filming and recording
of Llndbergh's take-off on his nonstop
Paris flight, and his reception, upon
his return, in Washington. SO great
were the crowds at the Roxy Theater
New York, to see the MOvietOne pic
lures of President Coolidge's and Lind
berghs appearance and speeches that
this Movietone subject is still being
shown at the Roxy, in New York.
Some of the worlds greatest musical
