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.

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.

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.
