Thanksgiving certainly is as important to the outer as to the inner-man A
good suit or overcoat is as essential to the comfort and well-being of the first
as a good turkey dinner is to the latter. And while we are content to leave
the turkey and the mince pie to mother or the good wife, when it comes to the
clothing that's us. ;

Pauline Frederick at Her BeBt.
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.

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.

have voted $200,000 for good roads.
These bonds were voted with the un
derstanding that the state would ex

collar they voted. Hood River

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.

Come In And Let Me Tell You About My
New Farm Loan
A 20 Year Amortized Rural Credit Loan
No Gommission No Renewals
TO UNION COUNTY FARMERS:-
For several years I have been working and
planning for easier money to loan on good old Grand
Ronde 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 West) for 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 an 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.
