Why Is a Barber Pole?
(Continued from Page One.)
!not think Mr. Phlpps should be al
lowed the sign privilege unless any
j one else who wished a sign was also
granted the privilege, but thought
' when the signs were not in the way
I they should be allowed,
i Mr. Nininger stated that he was
i in favor of allowing stripes on barber
I poles and thought If anyone wanted a
: street sign taking only a few Inches
and not a menace to the safety of
the public it should be allowed and
suggested an amendment referring
the matter back to Mr. Phipps with
the suggestion that he ask for a dif
ferent kind of sign.
Mr. Ashcraft voiced his desire for
a signless city, "with nothing but
sightly electroliers on the side
walks." After a tangle of motions, amend
ments and reniging, the matter was
finally disposed of by referring it to
the street committee. Someone sug
gested the cemetery committee but
not until official action had been
taken.

Big Bills At
Lyric Theatre
The Lyrc Theatre has two great
b'g bills for tonight and Friday and
Saturday nights. Thursday and Fri
day comes "The Phantom Witness,"
,a gripping three-reel Thanhouser
drama; "The Thunder Bolt," another
thrilling drama, and "Grace's Gor
geous Gowns," an unusually good
Falstaff comedy. Also a Beauty com
edy, "Getting In Wrong."
On Saturday night an even better
and bigger bill is promised. "Some
Night" is proclaimed to be the "orig
inal gloom chaser; "The Mender," a
stirring drama with an original plot;
a rollicking Keystone comedy, "Ma
bel and Fatty's Married Life," and
another installment of the great rail
road serial, "The Girl and the Game."
Three Nights of
Comedy at Vining
Friday, Saturday and Sunday at
the Vining will be all comedy. Not
ordinary slapstick comedy, but high
class pictures with plot, action and
lots of good honest laughs.
On Friday night comes Victor
Moore in a five-reel production,
"Jimmie Fadden Out West." The
Jimmie Fadden stories are familiar
to nearly everyone. He is one of the
greatest characters In literature and
will delight you on the screen.
On Saturday night come two great
Triangle pictures, "Double Trouble"
and "A Janitor's Wife's Temptation."
The first is a five-reel feature film
and is a most entertaining story of
trouble, love, business and politics,
revolving around a man with a dou
ble personality. Douglas Fairbanks
plays the lead role. The myriad
temptations which pervade the life of
a janitor's wife form the basis for
a screamingly funny Triangle-Keystone
comedy In "The Janitor's Wife's
Temptation."
On Sunday night comes a film
which Manager Rergener proclaims
to be "a knockout." This picture has
his unqualified recommendation as
he ran it for a week In Portland,
where it attracted monster crowds.
Lew Fields of the great comedy team
of Webber and Fields Is supported by
a cast of the greatest comedians of
the day in "Old Dutch." Ashland
will have a chance to see a $2 Broad
way comedy at the usual prices of
admission. Don't miss this one.
