gibe with her actions-and further
foolishness which provoke unre-
strained laughter up until hunting
sequence-after which the picture
goes suddenly to pieces.
Those first few minutes. however,
to those who are as fond of their
Pitts as we are, are as amusing as
anything that has come out of the
cinema this season. 1t seems too
bad that thereafter, with such an
excellent cast, the material should
suddenly give up its ghost and scrape
along in the manner popular with
second-rate comedies of a decade
ago Miss Pitts is too good to be
wasted on such trivialities, as are
Roland Young and the others-and
after such a good head start it
seems a near-tragedy to keep them
on the lot, prancing around with
nothing to their credit.
Nevertheless, Miss Pitts pre- and
post-marriage fever, her actions after

current filming of the old and an
Gent Wilson Barrett play is full of
$500 people, full of riots and chew

those other things so dear to the De

visualizing him as saving away on a

admit that the Empress Poppea,

Claudette Colbert performs this with
rare charm and an amazing knowl-
edge of how to make the most out of

Cause for Optimism

The fact that grain prices went
down Monday at Chicago apparently
disturbed nobody. Profit-taking was
bound to have its effect: the breath
ing spell from the upward movement
may only presage another squirt.
There is no disputing the optimis-
tic feeling which now rules in the
Northwest and little cause to doubt
that the spirit is justified.
Recent movements Of the grain
market largely have been credited to
initiation but there are other and more
pertinent reasons why the price Of
wheat should advance. Whatever
may be done about imitation, it Is not
yet with us and We can estimate its
effects if and when 1t finally arrives.
There Is some ground for the belief
that we may never actually exper-
fence its pleasures or pains, which.
ever they might turn out to be.
The fundamental thing is that the
supply Of grain now on hand is ma
terially less than the burden which
hung over the market year ago. The
farm board has unloaded its holdings.
They no longer hang as q weight over
the market.
Added to this Is the fact that pro-
duction in both the winter and spring
wheat areas will be sharply reduced.
Farmers in Kansas, Nebraska and
other states producing soft wheat did
not materially curtail the acreage
planted but nature has dealt harsh
~ with that region this year and there
win be no hundred million bushel
crops to glut the market. This wheat

Getting Out of the Rut

It Is quite time since the papers
have contained any better reading
than those stories telling about the
new recruits in President Roosevelt,s
conservation Corps" and the atti-
tude which they are displaying in
their new calling.
One such lad, who had been out Of
a job ever since he left high school,
and whose father had also been out
Of work for two years, expressed him
self as follows:
1T isn't the job. It isn't the money.
It's getting away from the dreary rut.
We couldn't do anything. We had
not clothes to go to school. We can't
go out with friends with no money.
We can't 60 out with girls without
money.
For a year I just sat around. It
wasn't good for my body or my mind
Getting out In the air away from
failure will let me come back with all
bets off. I can start all over again."
Somehow 1t does one lot of good
to read that.
