Mabel Taliaferro, the fascinating
and talented little star, will be seen
on the screen here at Sherry's today
last showing in "God's Half Acre,"
one of the prettiest and moBt charm
ing stories ever presented in the silent

girl named "'Blossom," the servant in
an aged folks' home known as "Rain
bow's End." The kindly old inmates
call her "The Angel of Rainbow's

well-known novelist comes to the
home to get material for a chapter in
a book 'he is writing. But once he be
comes acquainted with "Blossom" he
soon finds himself writing hex into
his book, and becomes the central
character. The story is handled in a
pleasing and unusual manner, .- and
there are many surprises and tense
situations.

"THE STRONGER LOVE."
Vivian Martin Featured in Morosco
Paramount Production. Reviewed
by Thomas C Kennedy in 1
Motography.
A picture of rare pictorial beauty is
"The Stronger Ixve," in which Vivian
Martin ig seen for the first time as a
Morosco star. In fact, beauty is the
foundation on which tho appeal of the
offering must stand.
Miss Martin is Nell Serviss, the girl
around whom a story of love and
mountain feuds are built. It is an
appealing romance dealing with two
very human characters. These char
acters are Nell and her cousin Jim
Serviss. The girl has two couRins and
because of their frequent disputes the
Widow Serviss advises Nell to make
up her mind to marry one or the other,
which is the only way to put an end
to the trouble. Nell decides thnt h
she must marry she would rather have
Jim.
Tom drinks a lot. He is drunk
more than half the time and he trie3
to force his attentions on Nell.- For
tunately for her Jim is not far away
whenever this happens and on three
occasions Tom is knocked down by
his brother.
On tho other side of the mountain,
the Rutherfords live. Kolf Ruther
ford left the mountain years before
and he is now a geologist and he re
turns to his homo in search of radium.
He desires to keep his identity from
the Serviss fnmily, not wishing to
have his work interrupted by mani
festations of tho feud existing be
tween the Rutherfords and the Ser
viss people.
He and Nell become acquainted and
a strong friendship develops. Jim
suspects him of being a "revenooer,''
so when Jim's still is burned he im
mediately blames the stranger. A
Come In And Let Me Tell You About My,
New Farm Loan
conference is held at which it is de
cided to attack the Rutherford cabin.
Nell hurries on ahead to warn her
friend. When the door of the cabin is
broken down Nell, steps before the
crowd and says she loves the stranger
and will marry him. Jim is broken
hearted but he manfully accepts the
inevitable. But a few moments later
Nell joins him and explains that she
only did that to save Rolf and that
she reckons she belongs in the moun
tains with him.
Frank Lloyd plays the heavy role
in a quite satisfactory manner.
Edward Peil does splendidly as Jim
Serviss. Jack Livingston, Alice
Knowlnnd, Herbert Standing, John
McKinnon and Louise A. Emmons
make up the balance of a good cast.
The photography is a credit to James
Van Trees and an important element
in the enjoyment this offering affords.
This picture will be at the Arcade
today and tomorrow.

Manager Trull tells a good story.
While in the show business in Elgin
he placed a sign out, "Matinio
Today." A man came up, spelled out
the word M-a-t-i-n-e-e then asked Mr.
Trull if it was a good show. Mr. Truil
went to the pains to explain the word
then the fellow remarked he guessed
he would take a chance but he never
heard of that show before. "Nobody
Home."
They ask why nouses don't run
vaudeville. Just because we can't get
acts that the people want to see.
.Look at the Portland Vaudeville
houses paying big prices for acts that
throng them; ask people who visit
Portland, they will tell you.

A 20 Year Amortized Rural Credit Loan
No Commission No Renewals
TO UNION COUNTY FARMERS:-
For several years I have been working and
planning for easier money to loan on good old Grand
Roiule farm lands.
Finally I have arranged with one of the largest
loaning companies (a company that has $85,000,000
loaned to the farmers of the VVest) fdr a real Rural
Credit loan based on a 20-year amortized plan. 20
equal payments of but little more than current in
terest pays off your entire debt.
You pay no commissions, choose your own date
of payment and pay at your own bank. You can pay
any amount of your loan at any time- This plan
figures you a saving of nearly 3 per cent over the
usual farm loan made heretofore in this county. If
interested call and let me explain fully.
