Work will start today on the new
building for the Sellwood branch li
brary, Xehalem street, between East

streets, which will be 55x100 feet. It
will be built according to the plans
suggested by the city librarian. It
was eight years ago that the start

dent of the local library association.

The Sellwood reading room was taken

BY LEONE CASS BAER.
After all it rests with the audience
whether or not a play "takes." Which
is to lead up to the fact that "Tess
of the Storm Country" "took" at the
Baker theater yesterday afternoon,
The audience decided It. A large audi
ence it was. And it followed the ac
tion of the story attentively, breath
essly and applauded with sincerity.
The tragic force of Dorothy Shoemaker's
portrayal of Tess was strongly ap
parent. Women wept, men Bighed.
Dorothy Shoemaker is convincing in
the role. She is pictorially an ideal
Tess. with clouds of wonderful red
hair flying about her wistful and lovely
young face. She plays Tess, a poor
little squatter waif, a lovable vixen.
an untameji angel, with force and in
telligence and a line repression.
Some day Dorothy Shoemaker will
be another Blaf. ve Bates. Just now
she is an exceedingly young and most
ambitious woman, and a real "find"
for the Baker Players. To watch her
audience vibrate at the vivid little
Shoemaker's first call to Its emotions
is a study in the mastery of dramatic
art.
Criminals Made Heroes.
The play this week Is one that stock
hugs close to its heart. Fish pirates
are turned into fine old heroes through
the inherent penchant in audiences for
glorifying crime and bating the law. A
game warden is shot and not a wave
of sympathy is felt for the girl and her
unborn babe that he leaves. All of the
pity goes to the man Tess' father
who is accused of the crime. He is
poacher and a fish thief, but the audi
ence puts a halo on him and sobs with
Tess when he Is taken to prison
The baby is born and its mother, the
only daughter of
supplies, that making public school-
houses municipal centers, and that per
mitting the payment of taxes in two
installments.
Relative to appropriations he said:
"It is Interesting to note that the
appropriations amount in the aggre
gate to about $500,000 less than those
made by the 1913 Legislature."
