JOHN BARRTMORE AT PEOPLES
Noted Comedian Is Featured In "Are
Yo a Mason?"
It remained for "Are Ton a Mason?"
Leo Ditrichstein's celebrated farce, to
bring forth John Barrymore's greatest
talents as a screen comedian. He al
ready has been seen in pictures in two
great laugh-producing plays. "An Amer
ican Citizen" and "The Man From
Mexico," but the Famous Players film
of "Are You a. Mason?" which goes on
at the Peoples Theater today for a four
day run. has furnished Mr. Barrymore
with an ideal characterization, which he
makes tha most of in. his excruciatingly
funny manner.

FRITZI SCHEFF, - clever and mJ
netle star of erand opera, comic
opera and Taudeville, has suc
cumbed to the lur of the click of the
camera and will make her Initial ap
' pearance under the recently organised
Oliver Morosco Company on March 29.
The pictures are produced in conjunc
tion with Boswortb, Inc., and released
on the Paramount programme. "Pretty
Mrs. Smith" is the vehicle which has
been chosen for her first picture ap
pearance. It Is a legitimate produc
tion which had a successful season at
the Casino Theater in New York.
Miss SchenT Will be supported by an
all-star cast including Owen Moore,
appearing as the third husband; Louis
Bennlson. late star of "Damaged
Gods": Forest Stanley, leading- man of
the Burbank Theater, and Leila Bliss
who played the part of Letitia in the
original company.
No expense has been spared to make
this picture a memorable one in film
annals. Nothing of the stereotyped or
bromldic will ener the production. Its
freshness will chiTacterise it. "Pretty
Mrs. Smith" has he. adventures on land
and sea and some exquisite scenes are
the result. The magnificent Hotel
- Alexandria will figure prominently In
. the picture.
No doubt it will be shown in one of
the Portland theaters soon.
CASTLES, F1L3LED, ARK COMING
Kreutzcr Sonata Also Billed at Ma
jestic Theater.
On of the most extraordinary an
nouncements made In motion picture
circles for a long time is to the effect
that Dolly and Vernon Castle, the two
foremost exponents of the modern
dances, have transferred their art to
the screen and will be seen at the Ma
jestic Theater for one week, beginning
today.
The Castle9 will give a demonstra
tion of all the latest society dances, ln-
eluding the fox trot, the famous Castle
walk, the hesitation, the Argentina
tango, the Brasillan maxixa and other
dances which they have created and
made popular In the United States and
ahroad. The Castles have been vn the
Orpheum circuit and scored a marked
success. They are now dancing in their
own cafe on Broadway. In which seats
sell for $5. and It Is reported that the
Place Is filled to Its limit every night.
Mrs. Castle Is one of the most vivacious
and attractive of young women, and
her dancing is the spirit of grace. Her
gowns are also an attraction which will
cause many women to wish to see her.
The return of the "Kreutser Sonata"
Is an extra added attraction which no
doubt will be hailed with Joy by the
thousands of people who did not have
a chance to see the picture when it was
here a few weeks ago. Its eventiui
week in Portland made the picture one
or. tne most BQugQi-anoi
moons. Outside, of the extraordinary
amount of excitement which the mm
created, it is a big picture. It features
two of the best-known emotional act
resses oh the screen, Nance O'Neil and
Theda Baftt. Miss O'Neil appears for
the first time in this picture.

PASTOR ADVISES JOBLESS
St. Lonisan Urges Men to AVnik
Streets Xaked to Show Suffering.
BOSTON, Mar. IS. The unemployed
of Boston should walk the streets un
clothed in order to call public atten
tion to their needs. Rev. William Short
told 1000 persons at a meeting for tho
unemployed on the Commons. The
demonstration was organized by Caleb
Howard of the Governor's Commission
on unemployment.
Mr. Short was removed this week by
Bishop Lawrence from the rectorship
of the Episcopal churches in Mansfield
and North Dir;hton after he had
preached a series of sermonf. on "The
Social Revolution." Both his father
and i.-raadfather were Episcopal clergy
men. He comes from St. Louis.
"I have seen nearly 1000 men sleep
ing on the floors and benches in Bos
ton's municipal lodging-houses," he
said. "The Mayor and Governor do not
realize the situation. The public is
doing nothing to remedy it. 8ome dras
tic measure is necessary.
"Some morning when you come out
of one of those unventilated wayfarers'
lodges, take those dirty, filthy clotlies
from yoor back and walk down the
street. Your suffering Justifies the ac
tion. Many people will be shocked.
Some will thtnk it would be better for
you to die In some lonely alley. But If
there are any Christians they will re
member the words, I was naked and
ye clothed me not.' "
REALTY "PLUNGE" COSTLY
a. .I.
Minnesotan Offered Chance to Dou
ble Money Is Theft Victim.
WHEATON, Minn., Mar. 3k Word
has just been received here from Henry
U Bjorklund. former local business
man, who left this city for Spokane.
Wash., a month ago, that he has lost
$3000 in a confidence game.
A man who pretended to own real
.estate in the City of Walla -Walla,
Wash., met Bjorklund in Spokane and
offered to sell the property for J3000.
Later, an accomplice called on Bjork
lund; offered to give $6000 for the samo
lot. and to make his proposition good
deposited that amount in a bank at
Spokane. ' .
Bjorklund issued a check on a bank
in this city. The owner refused to ac
cept it. So Bjorklund .came J
this city from spoKane; procurji. .a,
from his father-in-law, Ole Johnson,
and returned with the draft for the
amount to Spokane.
The deal had to be closed up at
Walla Walla and certain papers ex
amined there. Bjorklund was told that
when they got - to Walla Walla the
banks would be closed, so he cashed
his $3000 draft.
One of the men then took Bjorklund
for a short walk, and when the latter
returned he found his trunk ha-d been
opened and the $3000 stolen.
HIGH SCHOOLS CRITICISED
Students Fail to Learn Good Ma
.. ners, Says Educator.
CHICAGO. Mar. SO. Modern high
schools, in failing to develop gentle
ness, courtesy and refinement In their
graduates, have failed In their real
purpose. Mrs. Ella Flagg Young., super
intendent of Chicago schools, told the
representatives of the North Central
Association of Colleges and Secondary
Schools here a few nights ago.
"The main work of our high schools
should be on social lines," she said.
