Plckford.
ALICE BHADT, the dramatic and
operatlo star with the Infectious
smile, who has been the leading
figure in so many of the season's "World
successes, is featured in "Tangled
Fates," a worth-while production, the
current offering on the Plckford The
ater screen. Clayton, the mysterious
one, in his special engagement of enter
tainer as an answerer of all questions,
continues to make & hit with the movie
fans, while the Selig-Tribune news
service, including views of the May
Festival programme on Multnomah
field, is also on the bill.
Those who like motion picture ' va
riety have It in "Tangled Fates." There
are country scenes, those showing
glimpses of city life, with a fashion
(how of living models, and then, with
a sudden shift ."snow stuff" galore is
presented, with dancehall scenes in
Alaska, dog teams on the trail and a
hanging party as a finale. .
Miss Brady evidently envied Jack
Eherrill his role of scrapper-extraordinary
in "Then I'll Come Back to You,"
for in "Tangled Fates" she is the head
liner in a feminine scrap. It is no par
lor affair, with action purely vocal, for
after the two women emerge from their
melee their clothing and hair show the
effects of a rough-and-tumble mlxup.
The story tells of Jane Lawson,
daughter of straight-laced parents,
who, because she takes the blame for
an escapade of her sister's, is turned
out of her home. She goes to the city,
obtains employment as a model, and
marries Will Rogers, the dissolute son
of her employer, refusing George
Blake, the man she really loves. Rogers
gets into trouble, goes to Alaska, and
becomes entangled with a dancer. Jane
goes to Alaska Just as her husband is
being hung for shooting a man in the
back. She realizes the worth of Blake,
paving the way for a happy ending.

Fannie Ward, the distinguished dra
matic star who has appeared in many
guises on the Paramount programme,
ranging from the society butterfly in
"The Cheat" to the girl of pioneer
Western days in "Tennesee's Pardner,"
dons the bonnet and uniform of a Sal
vation Army lassie in "The Gutter
Magdalene," a melodramatic feature of
compelling heart interest, which is the
week-end feature on the Peoples The
ater programme.
There is no flagging of interest in
this story of the redemption of a worn-,

from her home with Jack Morgan, a
notorious crook. She discovers after
reaching the city that he cannot marry

is so ruled by fear that escape is im
possible. When a young Westerner,
Steve Boyce, comes to town she is
forced to assist in fleecing him.
Boyce is robbed of $40,000, thrown
Into an alley, picked up by the police
and sent to Jail, Me sets out to expos
the gang of crooks and finds Maida in
the Salvation Army, where she had
fled to escape Morgan and his associ
ates. The girl, is denounced and Boyce
is thrown into the streets, where he is
run over by an automobile. Maida
nurses him back to health and he real
izes that she is a victim of Morgan
Morgan, who is seeking to get the
girl in his toils again, informs the po
lice of Boyce's whereabouts, and the
Westerner is arrested. However, his
pal, a Wyoming Sheriff, goes to New
York to look for the missing man, and
discovers in Morgan a man wanted for
murder in the West. Maida goes to
Morgan's apartment to try to force the
$40,000 from him and in a struggle with
the crook shoots him. The Sheriff
breaks in before any of the neighbors,
takes in the scene instantly, and when
others arrive he announces that he
killed the crook while making the
arrest.
Paramount Pictographs introduce a
timely cartoon in "Miss Nomination,'

each in his own fashion, flirts with

called higher classes when he adds In
a striking sub-title: "There is this
difference; the world pities the woman
of the streets."
The story deals with an inspired
young preacher, called to a fashionable
church in a large city, where he finds
that 'religion is, with nearly all of the
members of his congregation, a fad.
He is afraid to utter the things he
feels, but when the daughter of a mil
lionaire, a girl in whom he is inter
ested, is to be married to a disreputable
member of foreign nobility, he revolts.
In an intensely dramatic scene, he pro
duces for his congregation a girl of
the streets, and compares her life fa
vorably with the deplorable custom of
loveless marriages for the sake of po
sitions or wealth.
The denouement brings the rich girl
and the preacher together, the count,
the object of his attack, visiting the
minister and seriously injuring him.
The drama is carefully worked up and
while the action is limited, the element
of dramatic suspense is strong.
"Ice," a Pathe comedy and a beauti
ful Essanay scenic are also on the bill.
Majestic. '. -
Love, Jealousy and thirst for revenge
are primary emotions depicted in "Soul
Mates," a Mutual production starring
William Russell in the first of the
star productions of that company. The
distinguishing feature of this drama,
which is a variation of the "Eternal
Triangle," Is its humaneness. While its
characters belong to the so-called up-
er strata, there is no exaggeration
none of the absurd pomp and hauteur
screen actors seem to think belong to
those born of high estate.
A strong vein of sympathy Is aroused
and held throughout the five reels
through the relationship of a million
aire and a little boy, the son of his
soul mate." The story is one of mis-
mated couples. The worthy man is
married to an unworthy woman, one
with a disreputable past, while the
good woman, with the adorable son. is
the wife of a weakling, who is more
than ready to enter into an affair with
his friend's wife. A private secretary,
possessing a knowledge of the guilt of
the wife, finally exposes her shame.
The unworthy husband suicides, the
guilty wif is divorced, and the "soul
mates" are united.
Special Rose Festival pictures, in
cluding the dedication of the Columbia
River Highway, and the schoolchil
dren's parade on Wednesday on the
East Side: a Vitagraph comedy, "The

TSvery man of Portland's police

day afternoon to police the long route
of the automobile and floral parade.
Not an accident or an untoward - in

CRITICISM IS REFUTED
Centralis Man Accused of With-
holding Truths In Pamphlet.
CENTRAUA. Wash., June 8. (Spe
cial.) A statement contained in a
pamphlet recently circulated by J. E.
Willis, a Chehalis. attorney, to the
effect that a former Board of County
Commissioners received more salary
than allowed by law. and intimating
that Judge A. E. Rice, of the Lewis
County Superior Court, was responsible
for this condition, was refuted today in
a statement published by E. E.
Teachnor, of this city, former chairman
of the County Commissioners.
Mr. Teachnor stated that H. H. Swof
ford. who was then County Auditor,
in drawing warrants for the Commis
sioners, did not segregate salaries and
expenses and in so doing was acting
under the orders of the State Board of
Accountancy. The former chairman also
asserts that Mr. Willis knew this fact
and made no effort to state the truth
in his pamphlet.
You are never far from the Blue Bell Sign of
the Telephone.
-Travelers throughout the Pacific Coast and
other parts of the United States recognize the
Blue Bell Sign. It is seen in cities, towns, vil
lages and also in the most remote parts of the
country.
No matter where you may travel, a glimpse
of the Blue Bell Sign brings to you that joyful
feeling as when meeting an old friend in a
strange land. It denotes an always welcome
place towards which to turn for almost every
requirement for human communication.
