possibility of aa impacted fracture of

He had been called, by the proprie
tor, to get up and begin his duties as
janitor. Before Petti became a
sweeper of floors he was a sailor, and
it was the recollection of his old-time

hi room by the window, "and venture
forth upon the ledge. He pictured the
amazement of his employer when his
bed should be found empty, without
an explanation of his exit.

There's a hot time at the Lyric this
week when "The Belle of the Ranch,"
a regular wild West cowboy stock play,
with musical interpolations, is pre
sented. The. thrills of lynching and
cattle stealing are mingled with ro
mance pure and primal, and with a
smattering of comedy. The 'Alhambra
Musical Company does ample Justice
to the good old stock play, and - the
chorus is "all dolled up" in pretty new
costumes.
A strong impersonation of Frank
Marvel, the foreman of "Z Ranch," is
given by Jack Ownbey. the central
figure of the drama. Florence Curtis,
owner of "Z Ranch and a Denver
society girl, ventures into Arizona to
investigate cattle stealing on her prop
erty. Barbara Jtiaaiand plays this role.
Before she realizes it she finds herself
In love with Frank. Then comes the
villain, Richard Huntley, played by
Val HowUnd. Under cover he accuses
Several Acceptable Vaudeville Offer-
Inge Are on Bill, and Some
Excellent Films.
Colorful, breezy and varied, a bill of
art and fun marks the week as the
Strand's best show so far. The kalel
doscopic vaudeville runs from riotous
comedy to old English romanticism
and then plunges Into the mystery and
fascination of ancient Egypt. For
there's a young and beautiful dancer,
of snaky and artful charm, who pre
sents an artistic pantomime number.
Verria Misereau is the headllner. She
glides on the stage serpent-like In
scarlet robe, and does a queer Egyp
tian dance. Her sweetheart snatches
the scarlet garment, and she revels In
a wild dance, clad only in a fleecy
oriental garb, with bare feet, and her
beautiful figure showing in the soft
colored light like a mediaeval picture.
She's like some fascinating vampire
from the history of the Pharaohs, so
when the high priest tells her to take
vengeance of her sweetheart, who has
slain her Pharaoh, the audience gasps,
and she plunges a dagger in his bosom.
and falls dead on his body.
Henry Gunson, the singing fisher
man and ex-opera singer, wins ap
plause and gives an act of superior
quality, with a popular ring that takes
with the audience.
Hawley & Hawley. two clever come
dians who almost fool everybody and
do make everybody laugh, have much
ado about a tardy co-worker.
A typical "Bridget" and a pretty
young singer are Beach & Lynn, who
give & likable act.
Almost everyone knows of Tenny
son's "Maud, and the romance sug
gested. "Naked Hearts," a Bluebird
film play, preserves it all and Is one
of remarkable interest and pictur
esqueness. Robert Julian plays the
hero, who loses his mind after a trag
edy and whose checkered romance goes
from England to France and back. Spe
cial music accompanies the photoplay,
Sommerville's cycle of lyrics from
"Maud" being played by Melville Os-den.

Sum Up
In your mind just how you yourself regard the
person who is not thrifty; who does not save
something. It is safe to say your rating of
him is far from the highest. Then make a com
parison of his shortcomings in this respect with
your own thrift accomplishments. Are you
saving as much as you might without placing .
restrictions on the necessities of life and a rea
sonable amount of pleasure? The savings bank
encourages the saving of the pennies and dimes
as well as the dollars. It is-he secure, the
practical way of observing thrift. This strong
state bank, oldest in the Northwest, welcomes
your savings account.
