HIS is old-home week for the Gleasons, James, who is really Immy ; Lucile Webster, who is Mrs. James Gleason, and Russell, their young son, who isn't cailed Rus- but Bud Gleason. Bud wants to be an actor, and by every law of heredity he should be one, for both his parents have been of the theatrical world and his grand father and grandmother Gleason be fore them. Grandma Gleason is the beloved and always charming Mina Crolius Gleason. Just now she is playing a big role in the New York production of "Five o'clock," the new comedy which Frank Bacon and his daughter, Bessie. Bacon, helped write. Jimmy Gleason has been in Broad way productions, the thespians' mec ca, on several occasions since he was last among us. We were discussing his role as Mr. Prince in "A Prince There Was," and Jimmy ventured that "when Bobby Burns twanged his lyre for 'some power the giftie gie us, to see our self s as ithers see us,' in the language of the unregenerate, lie sure 'said something "Art," went on Jimmy, who chats easily and affably, "Art has been de fined by Webster as 'skill in accom plishing a concrete purpose." It isn't alone that; it is also a taskmaster who demands assiduous application of his subjects, and no one realizes this more clearly than actor folk. "Constant study and practice are cf course essentials of a successful career before the footlights, and yet through the very fact that an actor Is , successful and is able to secure con tinued employment he is simultane ously cut off from one of the really valuable methods of advancing his art, in that he is never able to see his colleagues of the drama play their parts. He can never study them in their native haunts, profiting by their mistakes or virtues in a part. Someone has suggested as a solu tion to the problem a series of pro fessional mati nees, say one matinee each season. This arrangement would work no especial hardship on the actor, as he would be giving only one extra performance during the run of his production and it would at the same time give him the benefit of observa tion of his fellow-craftsmen at work. I'd dearly love to run in and watch the Baker Players. I used to be one of them back in '07, 08 and 09, and naturally I know nearly all the prea- SM 4 4 ...it ; - m. t : -.4 v . ,- I.'

Counsel for the Central Oregon Irrigation company, which has Deen engaged In the irrigation business in central Oregon lor tne p years, has made application to the public service commission for a date on which the hearing will be held for the Duroose of taking testimony con cerning an increase of maintenance rate, which the company is seeking, and which will more than double the present fee paid by the settlers. ! The matter has Deen penaing oe- fore the commission for some time. . The new rate would permit the com pany to pay the actual expense of ; operation and also to maice a net re- : turn on the bond issue and other in- j cumbrances now upon the property ; of the company. An election has been called ror next Tuesday by the settlers to vote a bond issue by which they expect to take over the control of the system and thereby receive the right to fix rate which will only represent the actual cost of operation, and if this accomplished, the application of the company for the new rate will have to be suspended. ent members. I'd like for them to see our play. But we are all working at the same time. About the only times I get to see some one else play is between seasons or in vaude ville." Jimmy Gleason has a host of friends in Portland, friends made in the. happy days when with his father, the late "William Gleason his mother and his wife, he played here. Later when Russell arrived the whole family appeared in several plays, the first of these being "The Heir to the Hoorah." when baby Russell was carried on and put to sleep in the cradle. Russell says he is going to be an actor, too. His mother, who is wholesome, thoroughly fascinating mother-girl, says that Russell is go IOE IOIOI o OVERCOATS ON SALE.

"Tf this kunL this traveling sight- .matched by county money seeing, and the unusual adventures he is having that makes Russell think the life of an actor is all fun and no work," opines Russell's mother. "In which premise Russell's argu ment is all wrong," opines Russell's daddy. Three Will Ask for Road. -THB DALLES. Or., Nov. 21. (Spe cial.)

The remarkable thing about these hens is that they are all descendants of a family of egg layers which star tled the poultry world five years ago by producing Lady McDuff at the Oregon Agricultural college, the first hen In the world to lay in trapnests 300 eggs or more in a year, her record being 303.
