Monday and Tuesday - Dorothy
Dwan, Who plays with Tom Mix in his
new Fox Films production, "Tumbling
River" although born and raised IN
the east has proved herself real girl
Of the west. When the petite Miss
Dwan was going to an exclusive
school for girls in Philadelphia, she
often thrilled with excitement over
stories Of the wild and glorious west.
1t was always her ambition to visit
that romantic country, and little did
she thing then, that she would in some
way become a part Of it. Dorothy
spent all Of her earlier years in musl-
cal circles, studying the piano and
pipe-organ. Since entering pictures
Miss Dwan has played with Mix IN
three productions. She has gone on
location to the precipitous mountains
and the barren deserts, and learned to
ride western saddle along with plenty
Of hazardous tricks. In this new Mix
vehicle Dorothy plays the daughter OF
a wealthy ranch owner. She is the
head Of her fathers household and her
sweet personality embodies all Of the
courage and strength Of the country
she lives in.

In addition to this yearly summary,
r. Palmer also included a report Of
the farm egg record club for the
month of November which included
the daily egg records from 152 farms
in the state. These 152 farms repre-
sented the eggs produced from 37,319
pullets, 22,156 hens, and 1880 birds
in mixed focks. The pullets laid on
the average 81 eggs, the hens 2.5
eggs, and the mixed fiocks 6 eggs per
bird during this particular month. AS
comparison. to these records, it
might be well to state that the pro
duction during November, 1926, was
7.8 eggs per pullet, 3.3 eggs per hen,
and AT eggs per bird in the mixed

EVERY VOTER SHOULD REGISTER.

The apparent lack of interest in the coming municipal election may complete satisfac- ton with the present Government, and 1t is not with any purpose 10 disturb the good opinion the people may have in this respect that We sug- gest that every in the city should go to the office of the City Clerk and register, We be- lieye the present municipal government is en- titled to the confidence of the people that 1t un- doubtedly possesses but the way to insure good government is for the voters to be prepared fol any emergency that might arise. No voter is pre- pared to render service to his community on election day unless he is registered and prepared to vote.
 The registration thus far this year is the lightest that it has been in years notwithstand- ing that there are otherwise qualified voters in the city than there has been for years. The voters ought to make it a point to register and do it at once so that there might not be last minute rush when the task would be greater because it would take more time. The welfare of the municipality and the school government demands that each voter take enough time tc get his name the registration books.
