Doors, (Roofing Papers, Cordwood, Factory Block Wood History of Motion By Biatrlm CHAPTER X. With the prac- " y, 1 1 c a I perfec- of London, the Uumerler es of Paris and others, the stage was properly set r for the advent of the amusement magnates Into the motion picture field. The time was ripe for the ap plication of the experienced show man's resourcefulness and redundant publicity methods to the popularlza-j ., , . Hon of the motion picture as an i amusement factory. Heretofore It I had been accepted most generally as I a scientific toy. The klnetoscope, like the hree by four peanut stand, una at liaaf naMv tt it a t n oau If ' ' , , . ' . could accommodate but one spectator at a time and consequently its gross earning capacity was decidedly 11m- Ited. The only possibility lay In the cheapness of Its operation and the fact that It could patiently garner its harvest of small coins with little or not attention. When the first motion picture was thrown on the screen, however, new possibilities were immediately appar ent to the few more astute showmen I of the day. The only limitation on the number of spectators now was! . ,, I the size and seating accommodations v. . of the projection room. All at once - . . mouuil inclin es iihu niei hiiiui imuacu from a ('penny In the slot" into a the atrical enterprise. Notwithstanding the expansive fu ture that had come Into being thus suddenly for the industry and the fact that, to us looking back at It, it I appears as though Us possibilities should have been perfectly obvious, the majority of the would-be "wise heads" continued for some time to regard it askance. It is to be noted that very few of the really conspicuous amusement magnates of the nineties were among those who were to prosper most largely in the film field. In most cases It was the "small fry" of that period that have become the domi nating figures In the tremendously large nd opulent motion picture In dustry of a quarter of a century lat er. Herein lies the flavor of ro mance. In London, however, this was not altogether the case. Shortly after . . ,. , i completing ms projecting macnine m his private workshop. 1'aul gave a number of demonstrations under tbe auspices or various eaucationai socie - ties. The only Intent of these early films was to show tbe subjects in motion. There was no attempt to ward a story. "A Rough Sea at Dover" and "A Bootblack at Work in a London Street" were two of the pictures shown. Neither ran beyond a minute's duration on the screen. Among the invited guests at these demonstrations was Lady Harris, wife, of Sir Augustus Harris, one of the most famous impresarios of his time. The enthusiasm with which she viewed the magic work on the screen and the reports that she car ried of it to her husband, who pos sessed a keen Instinct of the real showman, resulted In a fifty-fifty agreement between him and Paul whereby his device, known as the theatrograph, was to be installed for a season In the Olympia Theatre of London, which Harris had purchased. How little credit even an enthusi ast was willing to give motion pic tures In their early beginnings may be gathered from Sir Augustus Har ris' prophesy In his first conversa tion with Paul. "It will go great," he said, "so long as the novelty , lasts. I expect that the edge will have worn off In upwards of a month." Paul, It Is said, went Into the en terprise with even less enthusiasm than Harris. The public, however, responded uproariously. At the end of a month Interest, Instead of lag ging, was growing, with astonishing bounds, and It continued to grow from month to month. Other thea tres beganfalling Into line. Paul en larged his workshops. He doubled, then trebled his working force and still increased it more. And all the while the amusement kings of Lon don, while raking" In their unprece- CHICHESTER SPILLS DIAMOND BRAND CO" LADIES I ftnk jo'ir lrnrlt for Cm-CHES-TER 9 A DIAMOND JIKAND PIU.9 in RliD vlj Gold metallic boxes, icaled with Blunt Kibhoa Takb mo othbs.

(To be continued.) Oregon Has Some Tuberculosis That Oregon has a tuberculosis problem is suggested In the survey of four counties that has just been . ' , l'or the Prevention of 1 uberculosls. Tbe Oregon association, which Is a unit of the National Association for tbe Study and Prevention of Tu berculosis, will make a survey and report upon the conditions In respect i to tuberculosis In very county In the state. The first figures cover the survey of Clots jp, Josephine, Lane and Jack son counties. The Information is so j comprehensive, accurato and search , lng that Dr. David N. Robery, secre tary of the state board of health, wrote to the Oregon Association for the Prevention of Tuberculosis: "These figures and Information relative to the' counties of Oregon ;as you will assemble It, will be made ft T);irf nf Mia rppnrHn nf thn Orairnn state board of health and will lie Included In our annual report. No "v . . 11140 t , ' ' i in gicaici value to the health of the people of Ore gon than this which Is only one of the many activities which I know your organization to have engaged in for the destruction of tuberculosis In this zreat state. from tables scientifically computed by the Rus I Hell Sage Foundation it has been de termined that tuberculosis should comprise 12 per cent of all activities of a state board of health." County health officers will also use the Information. One of the appall ing revelations of the report is the number of children that are exposed to Infection In homes where older individuals have contracted tbe dis ease.

Davenhill has solved the big gest part of tbe problem of Irrigating his ranch east of Talent by the coni plelton ot a 40,000-galloU; reservoir and a fine well. The well is thirty feet deep and has a twenty-foot tun nel. Water Is pumped from the well to the reservoir by gasoline engine power nnd plenty of water Is avail able. Mr. Davenhill figures that he will be able to Irrigate all of his orchard from the reservoir. He states that by experimenting on two trees with water from bis pump near the bouse he found that the apples on the trnes developed Into Immense beauties, while those on other trees within fifty feet were hardly worth picking, lie believes that a little wa,- ter at the right time will work won ders with fruit, and has carried on extensive experiments and has the Ir rigation of fruit down to a fairly defi nite point. Mr. Davenbill's ranch is In the T(alent-A8hland irrigation dis trict and he expects to take water from the district for that part of bis land which bis own system can not supply, and especially for his alfalfa land. Liquor Law Same For the Present Oregon will continue under the prohibition law permitting Importa tion of limited amounts of liquor un til additional legislation to cover the "bone diy" amendment adopted at the recent election shall be enacted by the legislature next January, ac cording to Governor Withycombe and Attorney General George W. Brown. That all, doubt among district at torneys and other officials may be removed in respect to tbe new con stitutional amendment, Mr. Brown within the next few days will issue a statement advising officials against trying to enforce the "bone dry" law until the legislature has acted. As the amendment now Btands, the attorney general declared, It Is unen forclble, Blnce It lacks a penalty clause. Tbe completo canvass of the vote on the different amendments and candidates for office will be complet ed December 5, and Governor Withy combe will then issue bis proclama tion declaring the "bone dry" aiuendr ment a part of Oregon's constitution. The attorney general Is quoted as saying: "There Is no need for worry on the part of anyone that, wth tbe issuance of tbe proclamation on tbe 'bone dry' amendment, the present law will be abrogated and permit wholesale liquor Importations. It should be made plum that we have our present law until any other is enacted to take Its place and thereby provide for the enforcement of the new amendment." E. A. Hoag and daughter. Miss Edna, returned to Ashland last week, after an absence of seven years, they came here from West Virginia, but spent several years in California prior to thts time.
