the time arrives to say good-bye, and
It was doubly hard In this case, for
"Grandma'' hns endeared herself to
many new as well as old friends dur
ing her present stay In Ln Grande.
She Is one of those rare old charac

though no one woid discover the fact
for her young and cheerful ways are
Indeed contagious, and it is a positive
plcnsure to meet one like "Grandma,"
who ("never grows old."
She will be greatly missed by a
large circle of friends In La Grande,
but all Joined In wishing her "bon
voyage" and that she would always
be as young In heart and spirit as she
Is today.

Even more than the customary
crowds packed the Sherwood theater
lsu evening when the new "program
was opened. "A Painter's Revenge"
Is a splendid picture
through the audience In' a way that Is
pteasing to the manager. There are
other extra fine numbers on the pro
gram, and the paVons of the electrlo
theaters camiot afford to miss the op
portunity of seeing these several good
pieces at the Sherwood tlicau-V this
week. Tomorrow afternoon's matinee

The Clonlnger Ideals present "Our
Boy" tonight as tho second card In
their three-nights' stands. The com
pany Is weak on tragedy, but has a
splendid comedian in Mr. Blanchard,
who was In La Grande when it was
but a village. The opening last eve
ning was not largely attended, but
those who went got their'" money's
worth In watching Mr. Blanchard per
form. For a time the audience was
undecided whether Mr. Blanchard was
himself or Max Zimmerman, the erst
while Btock show man. His Dart of
the Jew wasAvell taken. The play to
night Is a pure comedy and the com
pany will handle It well

House Divided.
So highly pleading are all the films
In the Pastime theater that tho house
Is divided as to the best one. "The
Roman Tragedy" put on last night,
made big hits with the audiences
while a large percentage seemed satis
ilea that the "Clover LVtectlves" was
the best thing. Shakespeare'B piny
came In for a good jtortton of prais,
as well. Mr. Burton was freely en-
cored lost evening on account of his
rendition of "Dearie."
