Think yourself, haven't you gone into theaters that were hot, aod babies were crying, and the organist was playing 'Sweet Dardanella' or some other 'Jazz-bo' music, when perhaps the picture was of a gray haired mother taking leave of her only son? Doesn't It give you a feei ng that the picture Is no good, the 'heater poor, and when you leave iax have a well defined 'hunch' thai ou won't go back again soon? Many wonderful musicians cannot play pictures, although in every other way that cannot be excelled." Ruth Thomason Is a live wire and is thoroughly In love with her work. She has played In moving picture theaters for the past four years, last year at Marshfleld, and this summer had the distinction of being a pupil of Henry Murtagh, of Portland.
