large audience that attended the
Neighborhood (Music olub last, night
at .the La Grande hotel boll room.'
A variety of .numb-are gave the pro
gram an unuBual popular appeal.
Two dlffloult musical compositions
were played by the La Grande High
school orchestra, directed toy Andrew
J. Loney Jr., with precision worthy of
a more mature and experienced group.
Selections from Verdi's opera, "II
Troyatore" range from solemnity In
"The Death of Ase" to the triumph
ant strains of the "Anvil Chorus" and
the orchestra, under Mr. Loney's able
direction, conveyed the spirit of the
composition. iThey also ployed "Bay
aderes," from the Babylon Suite, by
Blel. :-i ! I
Miss Kathryn Sartnln, costumed In
a gown of black velvet, presented a
dance in black ami white, a modem
number arranged on the modern Ger
man itype of dancing by Miss Cather
ine Ob bam. The modern German
dancing 1s Interesting In that the ef
fect of tlie donco la not conveyed so
much In the feet as It is the ballet
, and other types of the dance, but In
gestures -which Miss Sartoln executed
very artistically. The orchestra played
her accompaniment, with Miss Ola
Mae Hough at the piano.
Miss Eliza Angel, accompanied by
her sister, Miss Lily, Belle Angol, stu
dents at E. O. N,t sang a group of
German songs in the original iang-
uage, after which the latter .played

. songs very effectively. The pianist
. also interpreted her compositions
well. ' -
Another of the highlights of the
evening woo ithe presentation of a
group of three songs by Paul Knautz,
accompanied .by Mrs. Harley H. Rich
ardson. Mr. Knautz has a fine bari
tone voice, to which his selection of
songs was woll suited. He sang "Be
douin Love Song." by Ciro Plnsut;
"Shipmates O' Mine," by Wilfred
Sanderson; "Calling Me Home (to
You," by Prances Dorel; and an en
core. - 1 !

not credit Frank's hunch, Frank
finds himself drawn toward Janice,
Chapter Six
SUDDEN MYSTERY
'"THEN," continued Grahams,
"Miss Kent told me that such a
thought was ridiculous since Ortega
owned a nice automobile." He smiled
ruefully, "Her' opinion was Illogical,
feminine and "
Wlnslow laughed. "Not at all,
Frank. The girl was right Look here.
. . . Ortega haBn't shopped bis Idea
about Hollywood. It's an original,
and Myberg's handling him with kid
gloves until we're launched on pro
duction. Kent knows that She wants
to be In that picture. So do I.
"Although Ortega looltB like a bull,
ho Is really a rather personable fel
low, and seems to bave lots of
money. We can't be snooty wltb blm
or he'll take ble Idea elsewhere. Sure
we could go ahead without him, but
he's got a political pull down where
he springs from, and above all we
want to go ahead with tbls tblng
with as little expense and competi
tion as possible. These days, mis
takes are costly." , ,
"I see what you mean," Bald Ora
harno Blowly. "But why 'would .Or

car last night, engineer an accident?
Is he annoying Miss Kent? Did she
turn him down and he Is taking this

"Listen, Spin, some of those South
American birds are dynamite. Par
ticularly with women. You know bow
they go for blondes. That driver 1
hit was one of our local boys. A type
that would do anything for money,
and damn little of It. I wouldn't
know what Ortega looks like If I
found blm in my soup, but"
Wlnslow's Btiort of derision Inter
rupted blm. "What an Imagination,
Frank! What, an imagination!
You've led such a melodramatic life
these last few years that your mind
works that way.dForget It. It wasn't
Ortega, and If It was, It was Just an
unexpected accident. Sure, he Bends
her flowers. He's stuck on her.
Dound to be. She's the first movie
actress he's met and she's damnably
pretty. I suspect you're a little that
way yourself, but take some advice
from uncle. Lay off.
Grabame was slightly startled.
"Why "he began.
TTIS companion grinned with mock
maliciousness but withal there
was an expression of concern In his
eyes.
"Perhaps I'm a great guy to talk
too much, Frank . . . anyhow that's
my reputation, but occasionally I
speak with a grain of common sense.
That girl is not for you, or for any
other man for that matter, for at
least some time to come. Too ambi
tious. Not that she's to be blamed for
that. She's fought her way to the top
around here and she's cagey enough
to know that a husband might dim
that universal sweetheart appeal
stuff that gets her over so big. So
she's not having any, thank ou.
"She has lots of money and made
It herself, legitimately. It's common
knowledge around the studios that
she was poor once and she's keeping
what she's got " .
"Spin " Grahame's face grew
dully red.
The other, In the act of mixing
himself another waved him to si
lence. "It Isn't that you would be
classified In her mind as a fortune
hunter, Frank, although there's lots
that would. Yes, of course, I'm talk
ing too much, but we were good
friends once and I'm tipping you off
even if It's at the price of our friend
ship." The stunt pilot's mouth drew
into stubborn lines.
"Listen. It's said there was an In
valid father once. He's gone now, but
things were pretty tough then for
her. She's like the little princess In
the story whose body was bruised by
the pea through six thicknesses of
mattress. Janice Kent can sense a
pan of dishwater and the life It rep
resents six rooms off. It's not that
she's cold and selfish, Its"

pupils of Miss Amelia Michael son's
room, the first, second , and third
grades.
A dramatization of the story "Peter
and Polly", was given as a reading
demonstration by the first grade.
The second grade also gave a read
ing demonstration of stories and
poems about "Elves and Fairies." The
third grade demonstrated a geography
lesson on clothing. t
The school master's banquet will be

Plans also were made for a com

by the parent teacher association at
the school house on Friday evening,
Jan. 26, at 7:30 o'clock. An interest

half of that."
'He gets bis ten thousand all

"Sorry,' old man. Mayho I don't

As the panelei door shut behind
him, Grahame caught sight of the re

varnished surface. Anger boiled
suddenly within him. Wihslow didn't

What a lousy way to talk about a

What actually happened was that
along about 1930, with tho depres
sion first becoming notlceablo In this
Bootlan, people started to let their
taxes slide, and continued to do so'
for a couple of years. Then, during
1933, with conditions improving and
employment opening up, they started
to make up their, back payments
and thoy'ro still reducing their In
