SHERRY'S For the evil we do we must pay, right here on earth, is another way of saying that we cannot escape our just deserts. This is proven through con vincing dramatic construction in "The ripers i-Tice," to De tne attraction at the Sherry theater today and tomor row with beautiful and talented Doro thy Phillips playing the leading role. ' With the coming of the cold Bpring winds, chapped hands, faces, and cracked lips cause much trouble but there is a remedy and a cure for them in Silverthorn's Family Drug Store cold cream; 25 and 50-cent sizes, daintily perfumed and very healing. 2-22-tf The divorce queation is exploited, dem onstrating, that if divorce there must be it were far better to let well enough alone. In "The Piper's Price" the man and woman who were di vorced did not do this, and the result was untold misery for the faithful wife who was effected by the folly of one man who was not brave enough to abide by his own decision. Four principals and two housemaid char acters are shown upon the screen in "The Piper's Price," but this small cast proves by the force and character of their artistry that numbers are not necessary to the portrayal of an inter esting story when the characters are skillfully played and combined in ef- factive delineations.

The primary rooms of the school ap propriately celebrated February 22 with a patriotic program, and an ad dress by the school clerk, Sherwood Williams. On Friday the K. I.

Negative Georgia Marshall, Lucy McBride, Kenneth Billings. rne aenaters had Deen preparing for some tune, and after debating an hour, had to quit for lack of time. The decision of the judges favored the affirmative. Members of tho club team won, 50 to 35, against the fast Wallowa bas ketball team Thursday evening. Stringham played his usual spectacu lar game and Rollins, center, showed up splendidly in worm fence dribbles and long shots for baskets. Wallowa had a fast team and put up a good game. Saturday evening the high school teams of Imbler and Elgin played an interesting game, the visit ors emerging from the first half one point to the good, but the local boys made a whirlwind finish and when the whistle called lime up ,had changed the score to 35 as against 25 for the Indian valley boys. Frank McKennon, of Alicel, refereed both games. "728" proved to be a lucky number Friday night when the high school presented their play, "728, or Casting the Boomerang." Nearly every char aster found an opportunity to feel the return of his little missile (boomer ang) during the course of the two hour comedy, which was highly prais ed as very creditable for amateur work. Nearly 200 tickets were sold and the students will have about $25 after paying expenses. Success of the piny is due largely to the coaching and planning of the English teacher, Mrs. E. E. Hurley. $100 Reward, $100 The readerB of this paper will be pleaned to learn that there Is at least oae dreaded disease that science has ben able to cure In all Its stages, and that to Catarrh.
