A Real Friend. Sir Thomas Lipton started his ca reer with scarcely a cent, but with the priceless assets of industry and thrift m his make-up. And he says: "Every dollar, above necessary expenses, that I earned I saved, not that I really loved money. I have often been asked to define the true secret of success. It is thrift in all its phases, and prin cipally, thrift as applied to saving. A young man may have many friends, but will find none so steadfast, so con stant, so ready to respond to his wants, so capable of pushing him ahead, as a little brown book with the name of a 'bank on its cover." Victor Moore Coming. For tha presentation of "The Clown," which will be ieen at the Ar cade on Friday and Saturday with Victor Moore, the celebrated comedian in the title role, the Jesse L. Lasky company rented an entire circus for three days. This traveling organiza tion happened to be playing near the I.askv studio at the time the picture was being produced and was promptly secured with all its performers and equipment. To secure the audience, the Lasky company merely announced in the daily papers that the citizens of Los Angeles were invited to be their guests at the performance, end hun dreds were turned away. Victor Mocre played the role of the principal c'own, but his main support was made up of the regular artists of the circus. CI 6 SHERRY'S "East Lynne" a Great Triumph. Theda Bara, in a moving picture re vival of the famous stage, long-run favorite, "East Lynne," is offered to the public by William Fox in a photo drama even excelling that star's and that noted producer's previous tri umphs in master picture making at Sherry's today. The old drama of English country life is enacted in all trueness to its powerful form by an all-star cast in, support of Miss Bara, including those picture favorites, Claire Whitney, Stanhope Wheat croft, W. H. Tooker, the charming "movie villain;" Stuart Holmes, and other actors and actresses of sound reputations on stage and screen. In writing the scenario from the novel "East Lynne" and the play "East Lynne," Miss Mary Murillo re tains in its picture from all the dra matic and literary force, but increases the scope of the story along lines only possible in moving pictures. Bertram Bracken, who directs the pictures starring Miss Bara, selected scenery true to type in old-fashioned spots in the East, where the buildings and gardens appeared quite like those of rural England, and the interior scenes, taken in the fox studios in New Jer sey, show genuine old English antique lurnisnings, which lend a color unusu ally correct, even considering the us ual accuracy of high class picture pro autions. i , i ANNOUNCEMENT It is with pleasure that we call to your attention the arrival of a car of FINE FURNITURE, con sisting of BRASS and METAL BED ROOM fur nishings.

ARMLESS WONDER WANTS SPEAKING DATE. .Man Who Without Arms Can Put on Own Collar, Is On Tour. Some time ago Stanford Steele of Dallas, Tex., was in La Grande on a business trip and at that time an nounced that the noted Judge Corley of Dallas would motor through La Grande on his way to the coast. The distinction this particular judge holds that without arms he does about everything anybody can do extended mention of his feats were made in the Observer at that time. Now Mr. Steele writes as follows from Dallas concerning Judge Corley: "Editor Observer: Judge Corley will leave here in September on his tour of the Northwest and will be in La Grande about September 28th. We have so far been unable to get in touch with any organization there that will stand sponsor for his ap pearance. He has no charge for his lecture but we have arranged for him to cret actual expense out ot the trip at least. There are a few open dates and I am writing you this to know if you would try to assist in having some organization, church, ladies so ciety, lodge or anything else to have him appear under their auspices. Judge Corley will draw a large crowd not only in the town but Irom the country. He has nothing to sell and no political speech to make, but has a lecture that no other man in the world has or has ever delivered. The expense is now cut down to $25 for each date and be less if we get other dates. At popular prices Judge Corley will fill any auditorium. Any movement you make to assist us or possibly you could call on some of the leading societies, lodges or churches for us if you have the time and inclination, and if you do it will certainly be appreciated. They can net a nice sum for their treasuries be sides seeing and hearing a man that will be heard on this trip in Denver, Colorado Springs, Maintou, Salt Lake, Pueblo, Grand Junction, Seattle, Port land, Tacoma, Butte, Sheridan and Kansas City. "I trust that you will fully realize that this is not a money making prop osition on our part but as it is Judge Corley's vacation tima he will do as he always does, go out and do some thing for his country.
