"The Broadway Peacock." - LORIA SWANSON maintains her I -r right to the title, . "the most' strikingly dressed woman on the screen" in "Her Husband's Trade mark." now at the Columbia theater. In this picture she presents an abundance of style hints for the fashion-hungry feminine film fans, who are ever on the alert to discover a new tilt to the Swanson forehead curls or a new ripple to her chiffon sleeves. The picture calls for Miss Swanson's appearance in many smart costumes from elaborate, glistening evening gowns to riding -togs. In the final scenes Gloria swims the Rio Grande dressed in a heavily beaded evening gown, with a train, in one of the most thrilling scenes in any of her pictures. The star has no feminine, compe tition in this picture, for she is the only woman in all but a very few scenes and walks away with the honors in her usual graceful fashion. The story is adequate. It is true enough to life in telling the story of a man who makes a trademark of his wife's beauty and style. He uses her as a pawn once too often in a shady oil deal and loses his life in trying to make a cowardly get-away. Much of the most exciting part of the narrative is laid in Mexico among Spanish architecture and troubadours. The scenes in the Lost Forest and the escape from the Mexican bandits are both thrilling enough to warrant the statement that Sam Woods is a director with a punch. Stuart Holmes is the villain-hus-1 bind and Richard Wayne the hero. Charles Ogle and Edythe Chapman are splendid as the husband's mother and father. The story is by Clara Beranger and the scenario by Lorna Moon. ' "Unknown Switzerland" Is the title of an artistic Robert C. Bruce scenic. An entertaining Screenland News reel and a Bobby Vernon comedy complete the bill. v Screen Gossip.

W. Griffith. "The Birth of a Nation." This picture is regarded by manv critics to be the classic or American filmdom.

(Special.) Letters signed by a number of men prominent in Oregon affairs were mailed out from Salem today asking the electors of the state to express themselves with relation to whether they would favor the drafting of George A. White, adjutant-general, as a candidate for governor at the re publican primary election. May 19. The letters indicated that Mr. White, if acceptable, might be persuaded to enter the contest on the already fa miliar platform of tax redur-.tions. Asserting that Colonel White "re fuses to be a seif-made candidate for the governor's chair," the letters, ad dressed to "dear fellow citizens," asked for a frank expression of opinion. "To fight the tax reduction battle we need a strong man in the execu tive office for the next four years,' the letter read. "He should be brought out by those who are bear ing the burdens of government as taxpayers and producers, and conduct ing the business and industries that give employment to labor in the de velopment of a highly progressive commonwealth. In that office under the constitution he should be amen able to the people direct and not be mere agent of the top-heavy ana extravagant political machinery that has been built up at their expense. Our candidate must be chosen by the people, be responsible to the people, in order to be able to lignt tneir oa.i tles." It was pointed out in the letter that Colonel White's rank in the American Legion "forbids using his position to seek political honors," but that it would not be a violation of military ethics for the drafters to submit to him the following statement: "We request you to serve the people of Oregon under the constitutional right we have to draft the services of any citizen. When you are thus called it is as much your duty to serve the people in a service crisis as it was to volunteer in the Spanish- imoririin war. to serve in tne na- tinnnl c-uard on the Mexican border tn mobilize the manpower of Ore gon in the great world war, in every instance witn creuu w the state." "Mr. White has no connection with -,, nnntrnversies that divide the nia in anv section of Oregon,' timii-d the letter.

Prevost, but found nothing to connect him with the shortage until the bank notified them that a check had come in. Mrs. Older disclaimed 'writing the check, which was traced, to Prevost. In his confes sion he said) he copied the checks written by Mrs. Older, removing them from the canceled checks before he turned the balance sheet over to her.
