TAYLOR, producer. and Mark Twain, author, frank ly gave warning the play and novel "Huckleberry Finn," now show ing on the Liberty theater screen, contain neither plot nor moral and that for Its existence there is no ac tual reason Two-thirds of this threat has been made gooa. but the revival In cinema form of freckled-faced, awkward "Huck" has disproved the statement that he has no reason for being. If a boy, a picture, can renew adventure, youth and sympathy In the hearts of men, he has, indeed, a mis sion. ' Lewis Sargent makes an ideal "Huck." He is cast no better than others in the play, however, all of whom seem to have entered into the impossible and delightful world of knights, pirates and adventure. Lewis is said to be only 15 years old and will be remembered for the eplendid work he did in "The Heart of Youth." His running mate is Gordon Griffith who makes a likable and plausible, Tom Sawyer. Gordon's mother por trays the Widow Douglas, a rather small, but exceedingly well done role. The performance by the king and duke of Romeo and Juliet is one of the choicest incidents. Rescuing Jim from his prison in the old smokehouse is another. Constance Talmadge in "In Search of a Sinner" will come to the Liberty on Saturday. Screen Gossip. Leave it to A. C. Raleigh of the Columbia theater to beat all previous records whether in Old Sol's depart ment or that of Jack Frost. The first ice to be used in a motion picture theater since the warm days of last September was carried Tuesday In great 250-pound cakes into the Co lumbia ventilating plant. Spring weather came on so suddenly that it was necessary for the air circulat ing through this theater to be first forced over the ice that the usual temperature of the Columbia might be maintained. a "Shore Acres" will open today at the RIvoli theater. Alice Lake is its star. This is the first screen pro duction of the famous melodrama to which the American theater-going public has gone- year in andyear out to weep over, chuckle at and ponder over. Alice Lake is known In Los Angeles. film circles as the girl Bert Lytell discovered. She was playing comedy roles when Lytell made her his leading woman. "In Search of a Sinner," starring Constance Talmadge, has been pur chased by the Liberty theater and booked for the week starting Satur day. This is a First National attrac tion. Special attention has centered on Constance recently because of the public announcement of her engage ment to Irving Berlin, the popular song writer. Many persons do not know that her director is Joseph Schenk, also the director and hus- band of her sister Norma. Next week the Marshall Neilan production. "The River's End." will come to the Lib- ertv. erty. . Eulalie Jenson, whose last appear ance on the screen was in J. Stuart Blackton's "My Husband's Other Wife." is In the cast of "Soul and Body." which Commodore Blackton has just completed, and also in "The House of the ' Tolling Bell." upon which the producer is now at work. - Carmel Myers has come back to the screen. For a year she has been playing truant from filmdom. The musical comedy field lured her away from California. During the past theatrical .season she appeared on Broadway in "The Magic Melody." She is to be starred by -Universal In a series of "society crook" photo dramas. She will report to Universal City in a few weeks and commence work immediately upon the first big picture under her new ccntract. Among the pictures In which she was the featured player were "My Unmarried Wife," "The Girl In the Dark," "The Wine Girl." "A Broad way Scandal," "The City of Tears.' "A Society Sensation," "All Night' and "The Little White Savage." She also played with Louise Lovely in the big Universal-Jewel production, "Sirens of the Sea." High diving through a glass win dow. one of the provisions in a scene in Kddie Polo's serial. "The Vanish ing Dagger," caused some apprehen sion for Eddie's leading woman. She. according to the scenario, was as signed the hazardous task and photo play work demanding reality, must always conform with the specifica tions. But the technical department. accustomed to creating substitutes long before the war and a prime factor in the board of strategy of the movie colony, plucked the terror from the scene. Clear molasses candy an eighth of an inch thick was sub stituted for glass in the window panes. All of the realism Intended was retained, but the leading lady's only discomfort came when she be gan combing splinters of taffy from her hair. Candy. It was also found, is less expensive than glass. The technical department was credited with having killed two birds with one stone. The "back to old clothes" move ment has hit the Hollywood, Cal., motion picture colony, where It is expected to meet with particular suc cess. Marshall Neilan one day last week startled his organization when he arrived at the studio clad In a pair of old overalls and a Jumper which had seen considerable service around his garage. Marjorle Daw, appearing in "Don't Ever Marry" and "Tho River's End," as soon as she saw Mr. Neilan in his attire, rushed home and came back to the studio attired in an old middy-blouse and walking skirt. On the bulletin board of the Marshall Neilan studio a no tice has been posted, as follows: "The 'back to old clothes' movement which Is becoming popular in the east and rapidly spreading all over the country is not a fad nor a joke; it has behind it a real purpose, namely, to cut the high cost of cloth ing. Every person employed at this studio is Invited to join this move ment by wearing old clothes." - Canadian Railroader Dies. MONTREAL. April 28. The death of J. E.

PLENTY OF ROSES ASSURED FOR FLORAL PARADE IN JUNE Winter Reported to Have Killed Some Bushes but Not Enough to Do Any Serious Harm or Create Danger of Shortage. B ELIEF is general among rose culturists that the severe cold spell and storm of mid-winter. while it served to kill numerous bushes and limit the productivity of others, worked no serious harm, and that the prospects are for more and better roses for Shrlners' week and the Rose Festival than in any week of civic history. The fact that recent spring weath er was somewhat chill, and that the sunny days have but begun, is prophetic of many roses when the Shrlners gather, and when the floral parade of the 1920 festival goes down the street, the amazement and hom age of thousands of eastern pilgrims are assured. Ordinarily, say the cul turists. the- Portland roses begin blooming the first week in June, or a day or two later. But this season the buds are at least two weeks back- a ,nd tne ,- , tha rose ""'h"d durinjr Shrin ?i.T are set for the season to be week, which begins June 22, with the Rose Fes tival opening on the afternoon of June 24, when the floral parade will be held. Roses Will Be PleetlfnL One of the foremost local authori ties on rose culture. J. A. Currey. member of the executive board of the American Rose society. Is com mitted to the promise that Portland will be prodigal with her roses when her guests are here, and tbat the floral pageant will literally be the march of a million roses. "I have been looking over the rec ords for last year." said Mr. Currey, "and I find that from June 7 to June 29, in the test gardens, there were more blooms than at any time later in the season. "Yesterday I detected the first buds In my own garden. Thirty-seven days are required for the bud to de velop and bloom, after it is first discernable. This computation would bring the opening of the rose season, Incumbent P. J. Gallagher to Get Nomination. ROAD MEASURE ATTACKED Johnson Supporters Practicing Spe cial Songs to Bo Rendered at Roosevelt Club Luncheon. P. J. Gallagher will have no oppo sition for the republican nomination for representative of Malheur county, according to advices from that sec tion. George Huntington Currejr. who filed for the republican nomination against Mr. Gallagher, incumbent, has decided to withdraw. Up in that section there la talk of Mr. Gallagher becoming: a contender for the speak ership. J. M. Crawford, who was in the house last term from Yamhill county. Is a candidate again and apparently Is making his campaign, in opposition to the good roads movement, contend ing that Tamhill county has not been well treated by the highwar commis sion. Work. Dora Not Satisfy. The work of the highway commis sion, judging from a statement leeued by Mr. Crawford, is far from satis factory to him. yet when Commis sioners Booth and Kiddle attended a meeting at McMinnvllle recently, he stood up with the rest of the audi- ence to signify his approval of the i proposed new road measure. Former Representative Lunger has entered the contest in Yamhill as an advocate of good roads. Under the direction of Sanfleld Macdonald. in charge of the campaign for Senator Hiram W. Johnson in Oregon, a group of the Johnson sup porters yesterday began practicing special songs, written for the occa sion. These they will spring Satur day noon at the Benson hotel, where they are to be guests of the Roose velt Republican club. The Johnsoni ans will also have with them a pro fessional ladies' quartet to contribute numbers on the luncheon programme. Roosevelt CI oh Entertains. The Roosevelt club has been enter taining the various organisations backing republican presidential as pirants and the Johnson leaders are to be the guests this week, when the address of the day will be made by Cassius R. Peck, retiring commander of American Legion Post No. 1 of Portland. All republicans are invited. Edward M. Cousin, candidate for the republican nomination for public service commlsslor er, invites Fred G. Buchtel. Incumbent, to discuss with him the Portland street railway prob lem at open public meetings to be held In the central library, the mu nicipal auditorium or elsewhere. HCRXBCRT ANSWERS CTJLLISON Sherlff Denounces Opposing: Can didate for Office. Sheriff Hurlburt yesterday issued the following statement in reply to the challenge made by John E. Culli- son, candidate for the republican nom ination for sheriff: X note that you have challenged me to a discussion or my action in drawing com pensation for my services as chairman of the Multnomah county draft board during. the late war. 1 am prepared to submit to any lit person or organisation the record of my services during the war, including an accounting or what i got and why I took it and what I did with it; but I will not permit myself to be drawn Into debate on tho subject with a man who has dls auallfled himself from public office and private esteem by his refusal to pay to the fatton nome me aeot aue or me care or one whom he was under the most sacred obligation to protect, or who associated himself through several years with notori ous gamblers as a means of livelihood, or who was denounced by tne Oregon supreme court in its decision against mm, in nl effort to require his associates to divide with htm certain unlawful and criminal profits, as one whose "moral sense was so blunted by the business in which he was engaged that he could not distinguish be tween right and wrong." t8ee CullUon versus Downing 42 Oregon 377, decided January 18. luna.l TEAM SMASHES MACHINES Runaway Horses Bump Vehicles and Break Orf Hydrant. A runaway team attached to a truck of the Holman Transfer company yes terday afternoon, collided with as automobile, a motorcycle and a bi cycle and broke off a fire hydrant at the northwest corner of Broadway the appearance of the very earliest blossoms, about June 1. Thus it ap pears that, with ordinary weather, the height of the rose season will be reached during the very period in which Portland is host o the Shrln ers and is presenting her Rose Fes tival and floral pageant. An unusually warm month nt Mv might hasten the bloom until this prediction would be some days too late, but we have no reason to appre hend such weather. There will not be as many roses as In other years, for last winter's blizzard worked ruin among them, but there'll be plenty and to spare. "About the middle of May. when the season has advanced to the point where a definite survey can be made of the prospects, the Portland Rose society Is planning to hold lectures advising rose growers how to control bloom snd to treat cut roses so that tney wm noid tnelr petals for an entire week. We will endeavor to demonstrate at that time the course to be taken by rose culturists in or der to injure a supply of roses dur ing Shrine and festival week." Florists Almost Csanlmona. Portland florists are almost unan imous, though with varying degrees of optimism, in giving assurance that there will be no floral famine when the Shrine convention arrives, or when the floral parade is decked for Its debut. There will be more roses, weather permitting, than can be con veniently used, say the florists. "The assurance that Portland : not to suffer chagrin for lack of the festival flower, the rose. Is welcome to the directors of the 1920 festival." said Eric V. Hauser. president or the board. "We are staking everything on the success of the floral parade, which is to bear the message of the city and of Oregon to the thousands upon thousands of easterners who have never known how prodigal na ture can be with flowers grown out-of-doors."
