Perhaps the most difficult task which the director can ask of his star is that she play in a production de manding the use of double exposure that she play two roles in the same picture. This is the task faced by the beautiful and talented Pauline Fred erick in "Ashes of Embers," her new est Famous Players production on the Paramount Program that will be at the Arcade on Tuesday and in which she plays the sisters Agnes and Laura, the one a drudge and the other a totally heartless and selfish woman. The story of "Ashes of Embers" is, briefly, that of a very pitilessly selfish girl who is relentless in her demands for money despite the fact that her own sister, who is the family drudge, scarcely has enough to keep body and soul together. Loura final ly steals money from the cash drawer over which her sister Agnes presides in the department stjre in order to get a dress with which to dazzle a millionaire. Agnes goes to jail, but Laura wins the millionaire who soon wakes up to the fact that he is being used merely as a private purse by his wife who has promptly transferred her affections to a young architect from whom she has temporarily dis entangled hep-sell in or.-br to ensnare the gentleman of the money bags. The rest of the story deals with the re turn of Agnes from the jail and the dramatic complexities which involve Laura, the millionaire, the architect and the lawyer who is engaged to handle her husband's divorce action.

Huling on Adamson Law Up to Su premc Court. Kansas City, Mo., Nov. 25. (Spec ial) All preliminary obstacles to a decision by the supreme court on the Adamson law were wiped out Fri day evening and the only possible hitch lies in tho question of whether the highest court will advance the case and render a decision by January 1st, when the law is scheduled to go into effect. Tho railroad cases set for trial in federal court here were postponed un til after tho supreme court decision. Railroad and government attorneys announced that a postponement of all railroad cases throughout the country would be requested. The test case selected for the su preme court is the Missouri, Okla homa & Gulf case, which was heard hurriedly Wednesday by Judge Hook er, who held the law unconstitutional. Appeal was immediately taken.

FEED, TRANSFER, STORAGE SHERRY'S Nance O'Neil in "The Iron Woman." t A Metro Wonderplay. Nance O'Neil, who is unexcelled in the strong dramatic roles she portrays upon the stago and screen, will be seen here at the Sherry theatre, last showing today in "The Iron Woman," a five-part Metro wonderplay, which she considers the most artistic achievement of her long career. Miss O'Neil originally intended to produce a dramatization of "The Iron Wom an,' the successful novel by Margaret Deland, upon the speaking stage. David Belasco," under whose manage ment she starred in "The Lily," and ether big stage successes, arranged to produce it, but an unforeseen turn in affairs prevented the plan being car ried out. Metro obtained the motion picture rights to the novel later, and natural ly cast Miss O'Neil for the stellar rote. As a result motion picture audiences will have the opportunity of seeing the story on the screen before it is presented in the theatre. Miss O'Neil is surrounded by a cast of prominent players, each one selected because of his or her peculiar ability to fill the role assigned them. The cast includes Alfred Hickman, Evelyn Brent, Vera Sisson, Christine Mayo, Einar Linden, William Postance, and other well known stage and screen artists. Carl Harbaugh, tho distinguished author and director, formerly of the Belasco forces, produced "The Iron Woman" for Metro. w'vJmk' " ?7f vyiHv ?i7Y !n n-iTf"'' . 1 " J lCTii fas SCENE FROM 'THE IRON WOMAN spring. The people of Wasco county have voted $200,000 for good roads. These bonds were voted with the un derstanding that the state would ex pend $90,000 between here and Mosier. We are glad that our neighbors have seen tho light, and we hope that they get a dollar s worth of roads for every collar they voted. Hood River Glacier. Road Over Blue Mountains There is considerable discussion in Umatilla County over the movement to secure better roads over the Blue Mountains, one by way of Toll Gate from Milton into the Wallowa country and one by way of Bingham Springs and up the south fork of the Umatilla river from Pendleton to La Grande. Both roads lead through the national forest reserve and the county court has already applied for federal aid. An inspector will be sent over tho ground soon. An effort will be made to secure the assistance of the con gressmen in getting appropriations. Held Court On Sunday. Col. J. H. Raley has returned from Lewiston where he represented R. N.
