Tffl il fom iii if l ii T I I, j ARC A DE "NOT MY SISTER" Bessie Barriscale in Triangle-Ince Drama. Reviewed by Thomas C, Kennedy in Motojrraphy. unusually attractive as to the grouping of tho characters in scenes which have settings of singular taste fulness and beauty, "Not My Sister" has received treatment of a character that brings out the full dramatic pow er of the play at the hands of the cast and the director. The play is by James Montgomery and C. Gurdnnr Sullivan. "Not Mv I Sister" is well constructed, however, and it is not commonplace picture drama. It will be at the Arcade to day and tomorrow. Telling of a girl who poses for an nrtist when her family faces poverty ana wno Becomes the victim of his brutal cunning, "Not My Sister" is i picture containing no few strong dra matic moments. While her marriaere return or the artist after a Myrtle Gonzales, Val Paul and Fred Church, who will bo weli remembered for their delightful work in "Tho Se cret of the Swamp," a recent Bluebird Photoplay, will appear at the Sh0 rry and the theatre last time today in "The Girl jfew years of absolute happiness with .i. t, uiiuuii-i iiruuucuon oy me nusband wnjp lives in blissful ig tho same author, Lynn F.

The bird people kept their comnanv for atnrv lu1 4hnn..i,r..i j several weeks among the mountains to correctly picture tho rugged "at mosphere" of the play. Despite the fact that there is no crime committed, no moral code violated or no "prob lem" involved, "The Girl of Lost Idike'' provides intensely interesting it convinces, Heading a well chosen and capablo cast, Bessie Barriscale gives a power ful and finished portrayal of Grace Tyler. Miss Barriscale does full jus tice to tho part nnd the opportunities furnished by it. It is a performance Undoubtedly the appeal of this pic ture is in a large way due to Miss Barriscale as Grace Tyler who, when the sculptor induced her younger sis ter to pose for him, determines to pro tect the young girl at whatever cost. The play reaches its climax in the court room whore her husband is be ing tried for the murder of Arnold on the evidence of the butier who heard his master swear he would kill the ar tist after hearing his wife's confes sion. The veil of doubt covering th-j identity of the person who killed Ar nold is cleared when Grace's sister takes the stand and explains that she stabbed him when he attempted a rep etition of his treatment of Grace. As played by Alice Taaffe Ruth, the younger sister, is a true-to-life char acter and a vastly appealing one. William Desmond is quite satisfy ing as Michael Arnold and Franklin Richie and 'Louisa Brownell complete the cast. Charles Giblyn is the di rector who has done s o much to make "Not My Sister" a picture that will be found very interesting by the ma jority of adult picturegoers.

Richey Piano House. Opposite Summer House La Grande. Oct. 16. (To the Edi tor) In a ireceut issue of the Obser ver two views are expressed wherein Mr. Creek says our President has gi ven us peace with honor. But he did not say that the peace he had given us with so much honor has cost our na tion an enormous war tax, through which he has been permitted to ap point several thousand Democratic re venue collectors, paying them big sal aries and transportation expenses to go around to collect the revenue from the little war tax stamps. Our Presi dent said that the Democratic plat form was not made of molasses to catch fies on and now, after four years of his admnistrationi what he said has proven true for he said that he well knew molasses would be too expen sive in the construction of the Demo cratic platform and would require a cheaper product and they have substi tuted the product they use to adulter ate molasses with a muscilage they use to put on war tax stamps to catch pennies with so as to paste a bad ire. I ne nas Kept us out ot war around every voter. Mr. Creel also says he has given us preparedness without mili tarism. Webster's dictionary says militarism pertains to warfare and if he has given us preparedness without militarism why is theie a flag hang ing front of every government build ing today asking for more soldiers to enlist to protect us on the Mexican border, and he has signed a bill in vesting himself with the power to con-1 script men into military service and if he has .given use a peace prepared ness with honor why are we in need of an army. The exuense attending the border patrol is enormous and if I this keeps up four years more his slo gan will be "He has kept us out of the poor house.' - He is using all the money I wo have obtaining the costs of pre paredness without militarism. He won't have enough left to even build a poor house. Mr. Creel again says ho has given us prosperity with justice. Has he stamped justice in very dollnr's worth of the If.'iOO.OOO.OOO worth of war sup plies which left our shore every month to blot out lives in the land of our forefathers when the lifeblood of our human brothers flows like a river. Mothers, wives and sisters, think of like conditions at this moment prevail ing in this land of ours! Would you think justice imbedded in the bullets that are piercing the bodies of your loved ones, bullets furnished by a for eign nation, and that foreign nation I reaping tho harvest of prosperity that j our nation has, nnd is, reaping today? Think of that nation causing tho mis iery that fille the mothers' breasts with pain almost unbearable. Then think of the bullets made by our nation and imbedded in the bodies of the boys and men who have fe.lli n on battlefields and are in the hospitals in every one of them a bullet endowed with "pros perity but causing so much misery. I believe that if it was within the pow er of the framers nnd signers of the Declaration of Independence to rise from their graves they would thrust every bullet back at us nnd say such prosperity had no justice in it. Unpnr ralellcd prosperity has come "with jus- uce, mu it nnj caused and unKnown amount of misery. Mrs. Hnttie Chandler Still well. When You Take Cold.
