SUBSTITUTES FOR ENGLISH TENNIS TERMS CRITICIZED PAWS. Dec. 26 "I,ob." "smash." and "drive.' as applied to tennis are three words the translation of which Into French has stumped the French sporting writers In a campnlrn to eliminate the English vocabulary from their articles on sport events.

Why the public will pay money to read a dead man's books, see a dead man'a plays or hear a dead man's music, and yet Invariably will spurn the acting of a film star who haa died, is a question which perplexes motion picture produc ers. Particularly puzzling It Is when It Is considered that the average film fan never sees the living body of his favorite actor, but only the reflection of that body upon the screen. Yet when a screen cele brity Is buried, his other self upon the film 1b burled too. Just as ef fectively. It seems, as If the actor and his celluloid counterpart had been boxeed In the same coffin. When John Bunny, the popular comedian of early movie days, died during the height of his fame It was accepted aa a foregone con clusion by officials of Vltagraph. Ihe company which had featured him In scores of productions, that his motion picture immortality waa assured. His death they thought was an opportunity to demonstrate a great movie miracle the power that Is in the films to make a man live on beyond the grave, as real, as lifelike to his audiences as if he never bad died. But the public dropped John Bun ny with emphatic suddenness. His company filmed Bunny's pictures wero a drug on tne market. He was dead: the papers had said ao; and film fans declined to pay money to aee the shadow of a man scarcely any of them had ever seen in the flesh. His pictures died with him. When Sidney Drew died an at tempt was made to continue show ing the delightful comedies of mar ried life In which he and Mra. Drew had risen to popularity. The attempt failed. Similar were the experiences with Harold Lock wood, Olive Thomas, Jack Plckford'a wife, and with Wallace Reld Invariably the public refecting films which, had ID Eat Your New Roseburg Grille 50 CENTS SOUP Boston Cream Clam Chowder RELISH Fruit Salad ' CHOICE OF , Fried Chicken a la Maryland Roast Chicken and Dressing Roast Goose and Cranberry Sauce VEGETABLES Brussel Sprouts Mashed Potatoe DESSERTS Choice of Mince Pie or Change of Schedule Effective January 1, 1926 Stages Leave ROSEBURG NORTHBOUND 7:00-11:00 A.
