UNDER actual fire in the . British
and French trenches at intervals
covering a period of more than
18 months, was the nerve-racking ex
perience of Lillian and Dorothy Gish.
noted motion picture ' stars, who, with
their mother, accompanied David Wark
Griffith to the front-line trenchesof
France to secure the important scenes
for ''Hearts of the World," the new
Griffith masterpiece to be seen at the
Heilig Theater for two weeks, begin
ning July 29.
The Gish family, with Robert Har
rnn, Josephine Crowell, Kate Bruce,
ilaster Ben Alexander (6 years of age),
TVbert Anderson, George Fawcett,
George A. Piegmann and others who
appear in "Hearts of the World," were
under bombardment on three separate
occasions, and in one instance the at
tack lasted for four hours. It is in
teresting also to learn that Mr. Griffith
was the first American to enter the
front-lino trenches. This was, of
course, before the United States " en
tered the world war.
For 18 months these players were
with Mr. Griffith, and their stories of
suffering are by. all odds the most in
teresting ever told by players for the
motion picture camera. A a result of
their experience the two Gish girls
were for a long time almost nervous
wrecks, while their mother suffered
from hysteria for many weeks after
her return to the United States.
And yet the very surprise of the
Griffith production is the fact that it
is not, in any sense, a war picture.
To the contrary, Mr. Griffith himself
describes his work as "a love story of
the war."
It is ' further stated that for more
than 40 minutes after the story begins
one sees only a picture of peaceful,
happy, country life, such as one might
have found in a small French village
before the war broke out. The war
that comes after merely is used as a
background for the drama.
Now that the Gish family and the
other players are back in the United
States and resting in their comfortable
home in California, they laughingly
telL of how Lillian lost 15 pounds as
the result of her experiences near the
firing line, and how Mrs. Gish was
just 30 pounds lighter when she
stepped from the gang plank and
planted her foot once more on Ameri
can soil. Miss Dorothy Gish did not
lose any weight, but it is said by
those who accompanied her that the
young lady invariably went into hys
terics the moment the first gun was
fired and continued crying until the
bombardment was over.

A vivacious, flirtatious widow will
be the headliner at the Oaks Amuse

with two performances tomorrow. For
reasons disclosed soon after the cur
tain rises, she is called "The Red
Widow." and she so dominates the
story in her subtle way of wooing and
winning men's hearts and then cast
ing them aside that the comedy is
named after her.'
What happens to two certain rep

the widow before they know it is re

The measure, which was made a part
of the military appropriations bill, pro

VERSE TELLS WAR STORY
Life Preservers Given Oregon Nurses
by New York Elks.
The nurses of Oregon Hospital Unit
No. 46, while in New York City await
ing embarkation for overseas, com
posed a clever verse, suitable to the
tune of "Joan of Arc." The verse is
reproduced below:
Oregon, Oreron.
As they blow from your pines on the winds.
Comes the whisper. "Fig-nt and die for me.
Give your strength and lifo for Liberty";
Oregon. Oregon,
Let your spirit guide us through.
When we have marched to Victory,
Oregon, we will return to you.
At the conclusion of the Fourth of
July parade in New York, the Elks
lodge of that city presented each of
the Oregon nurses with a specially
made life-preserver, prior to sailing.
Their flag was dedicated the preceding
day at the church which George Wash
ington attended for two yearn. The
ceremonies are said to have been very
beautiful and impressive.

It is used on good piano keys. Bush & Lane Piano Manufacturing Co. buy
the best African Ivory obtainable.
"MAHOGANY IS MAHOGANY"
Bush & Lane Piano Manufacturing Co. use the finest grains obtainable.
"IRON IS IRON"
All good rianos should have a one-piece Iron Frame. Bush & Lane Piano
Manufacturing Co. use a patented, full-crown iron plate (the heaviest known to
the piano trade).
The action (and this is the vital part of any piano) is the Famous Wessell,
Nickol & Gross Action, the same as is used in 98 of America's Foremost Pianos.
This particular action is not to be had in any cheap pianos. All Bush & Lane
Pianos have Wessell, Nickol & Gross Actions.
"THE SCALE," Meaning "TONE QUALITY"
Mr. Walter Lane, President of the Company, has long been recognized by the
entire trade as the foremost scale draftsman of this day and age.
NOW! We assemble these high-grade materials and this combined with an
evenness of tone (the equal of any and surpassing many of the so-called old and
honorable makes) is all that can be desired in a piano.
The only possible difference there can be between two articles honestly made
from the same materials is
NAME and PRICE
and this amounts in many cases to several hundreds of dollars between the prices
of the famous Bush & Lane Piano and many so-called old and honorable makes.
Investigate thoroughly the few really good pianos. Remember, it's to be yours
all through life, not some other person's; it must suit your needs, you must buy
the piano you want.
