Sell it The Observer want ads will sell it SHERRY'S He wanted sensation and novelty. The prairies have been his home, and when he made his first trip to a big city it was not surprising that he was "roped in" by a confidence gang, ar.J robbed of a fat "roll." But the real surprise was meted out to the crooks when they unrolled the "bills" and found only slips of paper, cut to size. While enacting the hero in the "bad ger game" Sam Brockton only began a series of adventures that will be fully outlined, in brilliant Bluebird photography, when "A Stranger from Somewhere" is exhibited at the Sher ry theatre today anil tomorrow witn Franklin Farnum anil Agnes Vernon playing the leading characters. Mr. Farnum enacts dual roles, that keep him mighty busy through five excit ing acts and when the finish is ar rived at there will be a "surprise" to cap the climax of cleverness in photo playing which this Bluebird repre sents. There is not a dull moment in Farnum's moving picture life, if one may judge by what transpires in "A Stranger from Somewhere" and when matters get too complicated for one man to successfully cope with the situation, "double exposure," a mysti fying camera trick, is used to convulse with laughter the beholders. Wallowa News Items (From the Wallowa Sun.) On Friday evening, December 22, the members of the I. 0. O. F. lodge and the Rebckah lodge and other in vited friends tendered a Tcception to Mr. and Mrs. Glenn Tulley. In the receiving line with the bride and groom were Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Pur- din, and Messrs, Cal Larm, James lulley and Harvey Harris. After the more formal exercises were over and a social time had been enjoyed in con versation, a short program was given. Readings, "He Told His Wife,'.' by Mrs. J. M. Bledsoe and "Girl in Ham mock," by George Rogers. Rev. Mr. Cook gave an excellent talk telling i the bride and groom the many uses of j several household articles. In th'j -London, Dec. 10. (By Mail) (By United Press) Richard Belt, artist, came hark after 34 years of retire ment due to illness and modeled a bust if Lord Kitchener, so lifelike that he was offered $50,000 for it. Art is priceless to Belt, however, and his masterpiece has been claimed by the government. A cannon from the British artillery has been set aside to make the casting. Belt's last previous work was a bus; of Sir Richard Buibridge which the Academy refused to accept. Shortly after the refusal he lost the power of one arm nnd gave up his work. The artist was one of Kitchener':; worshippers and studied the great soldier's moods. When England was stunned by Kitchener's loss Belt and his wife improvised u secret studio in their heme and the sculptor began, woik anew to express In clay what was in his finger-tips I hnd never spoken to Lord Kitch oner," said Belt today, ''but I had ob- served him many times, noting his ; defeated her husband. A recent edi features keenly nnd to the minutest ! tion of the St. I,ouis Disnatch showed est until I had put the knowledge I to expression. The bust is the result." ' Critical art committees judged the ' model to be a faithful and lifelike I lepresentation of Kitchener contom- piative, combining his scvere facial of his genial ! lln,s with some hint nature. BUTTER LABELS For sale at The Observer office. ARCADE BESSIE BARRISCALE . COMING WEDNESDAY Bessio Burriscale And William Des mond will be the feature attraction at tho Arcade Wednesday and Thurs day when they appear in the thrilling picture, "The Payment.'" ' What is said to be oive of the fiore- est hand-to-hand clashes between two bodies of men ever staged for the screen is one of the thrilling incidents in "The Payment. The encounter takes place in the early part of the story and depicts a bitter and bloody fight , between strikers and strike breakers in a small New England mill town. Thos. H. Ince's fights are famous for their realism, but rarely has he attempted to stage anything but bat tles in which gun-play 'has had a part. Gun-play, it is true, mires to soms extent in the scenes in "The Pay ment," but the biggest part of the warfare is waged with sticks and stones and fists. The scenes were filmed in the town of Newhall, Cal., chosen because of its quaint cottages, resembling those of a mill-workers' hamlet, and because of the presence of a factory suited to the requirements of the story. Nearly two hundred men, women and children were transported there from Los An geles and remained three days during the making of the scenes. An interesting feature of the scenes is the appearance therein of the Cali fornia National guardsmen, about fif ty of whom were engaged for the pro duction. They were used to charge the hostile strikers, and the effect is de clared to be unusually sensational. RAINBOW PRINCESS BIG HIT "The Rainbow Princess" the Para mount picture starring the dainty Ann Pennington which will be shown at the Arcade tonight for the last time surely made a hit when it was shown yesterday. It is a typical picture of circus life, showing all of the differ ent stunts used to forced the unwary to part with their money, from the Ferris wheel to the sideshows. And talking of sideshow3, the one showing the Hawaiian village where Miss Pen ning dances her famous Hulla Hulla one can almost smell the sawdust and hear the Hawaiians playing. Quite a surprise was sprung last evening when this scene was shown. As the dancers made their appearance in the distance a trio of voices began singing Ha waiian songs that made the r.:o:.-"; the more real. This novelty will be repeated ogain tonight so that those fl,of vt.fcual it ltyf iiihf will limro rt chance to hear it. j Of course there is a pretty love story woven through the picture and J there are some thrilling scenes, espe cially where Miss Pennington makes her balloon flight and lands in a lake when she descends in the parachute. Taken all in all the picture cannot help but please all lovers of the silent drama. UMATILLR GUI GETT E Coup of Women Folk Brings Much Publicity to Little Town; Newspa pers All Over Country Use Story of Wife Who Defeated Her nusbnnd. Umatilla, Ore., Jan. 2. (Special) When Mrs. E. E. Starcher and other women of Umatilla planned their littlo coup whereby th feminine contingent of the oldest town of the county soiz cd control of the municipal govern ment, little did they tiuspect that they would put their town in the national limelight. However, that is just what they have done. Within the past two weeks Umatilla has received more publicity than she has received in her whole history prior to that notable election and probably more than she will ever receive again. Newspapers all over the country were quick to see the unusual story in a woman beating her husband for mayor. Tho big press associations sent tho story broadcast. The New ! York World wired for a picture of the "mayoress" within two days after the votes had been counted. One big pic ture service syndicate sent its staff i representative to Umatilla to ret. a ' picture and an interview, lie had jurt , come from getting an interview from Miss Rankin, conjriesswoman-clect from Montana. Louie's Weekly wrote for n picture r.ot only of the fair mayor, but for; pictures of the other women who had been elected to office. At least three big news picture syndicates secured r icttircs and it. is prr.l.uMe that two- tliirds of tho ncw.i;ra',o;s of any con sequence in tho country will print, a picture of Mayor Laura Starcher who under the caption, "The Or.ly Woman Mavor in the Country." Mrs. Starcher nnd Umatilla have also been made tho subject of innu Imernblo editorinls and editorial para graphs. When the railroad yards were .taken from Umatilla, it was generally raid that the town would die a quiet I death, but tho women hare brought it .to a new life that has startled the na- ion.
