JVill Join College Woman's Club.
The Association of College Alumnae,
it Us meeting- Saturday afternoon at
He borne of Miss Laura Northup, Port
fatid Heights, voted to Join the College
Woman'! club that la in process of
formation. A general meeting Is called
tot Wednesday afternoon of this week
In room A of the Central library at
t;Z0 ta perfect this organization. A
full attendance of all college women
At the city is desired.
The feature of the afternoon was the
address by Miss Josephine Hammond
f Keed college, president of the Port
hind branch of the Drama league. Miss
llaromoud spoke on "The New Spirit
e the Modern Drama." She said that
(lie two leading representative of the
new spirit, are Max Bheinhardt of Ber
hn and Gordon Craig of London. This
Hew spirit is exemplifying itself Jn two
.ays, the need for the small - theatre
eating no more than 300 persons and
fesembiing a modern living-room,
there the .actors are so close to the
auojence as to ue a prv ui u. iu
other theatre should be a great audi
torium Beating 5000 persons, such as
London has. ,.
Recently, when "The Miracle" was
fcr-esented jn this house, the whole in
ferior was converted into a cathedral.
This was done in an effort to put the
gudienee in the spirit of the play, as
the apoetles of the modern drama wish
the illusion to .stir the audience emo
tionally. The drama is.aoy thing that
Jan be made effective on the stage
h rough human agency.
r The ideal theatre of the new type
ives each person in the audience an
" rqual chance to hear and see. It is es-
tentially democratic in its plane. There
i no play unless the audience is a
' trart of it. In this playhouse of mod
fern plan, which is already a reality in
Kew York, London and Berlin, the old
time "footlights have given way to in
direct lighting reflected against vari
colored ribbons, and the orchestra" or
ther specialties .between-acts have
; tren abolished. An enormous curtain
' jiclosing the audience with the actors
yna also been introduced as a means
tl effecting an intimacy between the
actons and the audience.
'- Following the address, there was a
' social hour, during which refreshments
1 ivere served The daffodil-decked table
whi presided ov" r by Mrs. Gage Hazel
fon and Mis. George Marsh.

A Happy, Hayyp Easter.
The meadows green are ringing
With joy of birdies singing;
The sunshine and the showers
Are bringing forth the flowers,
And all ths world rejoices.
It is always so at the beautiful
Easter season. Peter Rabbit . felt
happy the minute he opened his eyes.
He didn't know just why, but he did.
"I guess It's in the . air," said Peter.
and I guess that he was rignt. Danny
Meadow Mouse felt happy in just the
same way. So did Jerry Muskrat and
Billy Mink and Bobty Coon, and Sam
my Jay and all the other little people,
even Reddy Fox and Buster Bear. In
fact, everybody felt so happy that no
one could sit still. They just had to
go visiting and tell their neighbors
how happy they felt.
Peter Rabbit started bright and
early for the Old Orchard to make
Chatterer the Red Squirrel a call.
When he reached the old stone wall
who should he see whisking along but
Striped Chipmunk. Striped Chipmunk
was lust as pert and saucy and frisky
as ever and seemed just as glad to see
Peter as Peter was to see him.
"I hear the winter was pretty hard.
said Striped Chipmunk, "I don't see
what any one wants to go hungry and
cold for. 'I'd rather sleep and be com
fortable.
"But think of all you miss!" cried
Peter. "Why. I don't suppose you
ever have known a single Christmas."
"What's Christmas 7" , demanaea
Striped Chipmunk. If It Is warm and
nice like Saster I'm sorry I've missed
it, but if it Isn't I don't mind. Easter
suits me.
"O, I am happy as can be.
Pray, won't you come and dance with
ms7
Then striped Chipmunk frisked about
so Peter just had to laugh. at him.
"Haoov Easter to you, cried Peter,
and hoooed on. lipperty-lipperty-lip.
Just from force of habit he headed
straight f ot Johnny Chuck's house un
der the apple tree in the far corner of
the Old Orchard. As soon as he came
in sight of It he squealed with pleas
ure. There sat Johnny Chuck on his
doorstep, thinner than when he last
saw him in the rail, but still the same
Johnny.
"Hello, Johnny, you old sieepy-neaa:
I'm mighty glad to see you!" ex
claimed Peter. "When did you wake
upr
Johnny rubbed his eyes sleepily ana
yawned. "You don't need to tell me.
You've waked up this very morning."
declared Peter. "What made you?"
"Because it s Easter," replied John
ny. "It's. the wakening of all sleep
ers that makes Easter, you know. My,
its good to feel the sun again!"
Hurrying down the Lone Little Path
toward the Smiling Pool tot see if
You've waked up this very morn
ing," declared Peter.,
Grandfather Frog was awake too,
Peter almost stumbled over someone.
"Why. if it isn't Old Mr. Toad!"
cried Peter.
"What of ltr demanded Old Mr.
Toad a little gruffly.
Peter paid no heed to his e-ruffness.
"Have you waked, up for Easter, too?"
ne criea. t
"Of course, replied Old Mr. Toad
testily. "You didn't suppose I'd sleep
over Easter, did you?
Then I wish you the very happiest
Easter you have ever known, and I'm
awfully glad to see you again, de
clared Peter.
"Thank you," said Mr. Toad, begin
ning to smile. "It is good to be awake
again and see what is going on In the
world. You folks who do not sleep all
winter don't know the Joy of waking.
Is my'cousin. Grandfather Frog, awake
yetr
"I don't know, but I'm on ray way
to find out." replied Peter, once more
starting on, lipperty-lipperty-llp.
. Grandfather Frog was awake and
ready for his friends, to pay their re
spects. And it seemed as everybody
knew it and was hastening to give
him greeting.
"Chug-a-rum!" exclaimed Grand
father Frog. "Didn't know I had so
many friends, "j wish everybody a
happy Easter."
"We wish you the same," cried all
together. Then everybody fell to wish
ing everybody else the same. Alto
gether it was the happiest Easter Pe
ter could rememt'er.

Damaged Goods" to
Close Wednesday
Three more days of "Damaged
Goods" will close the local stock sea
son at the Baker theatre. Tonight
will be the last bargain night. Mati
nees will be given this afternoon, to
morrow and Wednesday and Wednes
day night's performance will be the
last. Tomorrow's matinee will be for
women only.' ?
Among the players of the stock com
pany who will say. farewell to Port
land audiences for the season are
Dorothy Shoemaker, Florence Roberts,
Edmund Elton and William Powell.
Their work in "Damaged Goods" has
been above the average.
"Damaged Goods" has called forth
many comments from thinking people
who believe the production of the play
to be proper and feel that it Is right
that the veil of secrecy should be
drawn from ; evils and people be
warned against them, ...
"Pretty Mrs. Smith".
But Fair Success
"Pretty Mrs. Smith," as a play had
only a fair measure of success and in'
film form, as shown at the Star until
Thursday, it la not likely to exceed its
former record. : Fritzl Schef f plays
the title role but the dash and sparkle
ef her footlights personality carries on
the screen Only to a degree. . Besides
tbat. she has for her leading man
Owen Moore who does well at any
time If he is at all Interesting. The
story has to do with a fair young; wo
man who has married two Smiths and
thinking she is free of them marries a
third only to have the absent ones ap
pear to the great embarrassment of
herself and the current Mr. Smith.
There are some good sub titles and
some good: comedy situations. Miss
Scheff wears a stunning array of
gowns. An excellent juvenile Nestor
comedy completes the bill, i . - f v

PROGRAM
FILLED TO BRIM WITH
FUN
AND
LAUGHTER
Bill So Good Throughout That
It Is Difficult to Determine
Major Honors.
, The Orpheum theatre program Is a
fitting Introduction of Easter. There
is mirth and laughter to" nearly every
angle of the varied stunts and it Is dif
ficult, Judging from the volumes of
applause at times, to determine who
is entitled to the major honors.
Alan Brooka, in a comedy called
"Straightened Out" perhaps holds first
place. Straightened out means getting
cured-of the delirium tremens. It
takes a swimming pool, two doctors
and other accessories to accomplish
the teat. Asta Flexnming and Muriel
Ridley appear in an artistio pantomime
in which the artist Is slain by -the
woman whose love he spurned.
Thoughts of home and mother come
with the singing of "When You Are a
Long, Long Way From Home." by
Clara Inge. Her recitation of the story
of the boy and the bear by James Whit
comb Riley was superb.
"Three Rubes" Bowers, Walters
and Crocker do a tumbling, dancing
and musical stunt that Is full of
laughs from start to finish.
There is pathos, and -patriotism in
the skit, "Ordered Home." In which
George Damerel has the leading part.
Kative dancing girls and a native
men's quartet give a hint of the Bird
of Paradise. "
Billed as late stars of "The Tlk Tok
Man of Oz," James Moorton and Frank
Moore, In evening dress, present a con
glomeration of eccentric dancing, dia
logue and whatnot which keeps the au
dience in laughter.
Abe Atell, former featherweight
champion pugilist of the world, does a
monologue In an; easy and pleasing
manner.
After the regular show was over he
sparred three rounds with Wing Wang,
local Chinese bantam. Mark Woodruff
was announcer, and Jimmle Richard-
eon referee. The Celestial persisted n
getting; into the r way of Atall's left
and ! there was much humor in the
bout. ' -r ': ' ",
Columbia Showing
Neptune's Daughter

Annette Kellermann opened a return
celluloid engagement tn Portland yes
terday in the beautiful production of
"Neptune's Daughter." The engage
ment is for the entire week and is at
the Columbia, where the firm is being
shown for the first time at popular
prices. "Neptune's Daughter" is one of
the rarely beautiful screen productions
that will hold its high rank in screen
world for a long time. The picture
was filmed in Bermuda and the scenery
aione would almost make the picture
even if there were not a charming
story, a capable cast and Miss Keller-

Hypocrites" Film
Is Great Classic
Undoubtedly one of the greatest
screen classics yet produced is "Hypo
crites," the Bosworth feature at the
Peoples for the entire week. It was
written and directed by a woman, Lois
Weber, and there is no smallest scene
which does not show a master's touch
In every detail. The feature of the
film J which has caused the greatest
storm of comment is the first intro
duction on the screen of an und raped
figure, but if there be any who would
expect to be shocked or who seek sen
Rationalism they will be disappointed.
There is nothing of either. Through
the adroit use of double photography
all substance of g-TOaterlal body is re
moved and the figore appears as a
phantom, at times hardly discernible.
The undraped figure symbolizes the
naked truth.
The opening scenes are sn allegory
of a monk, Gabriel, the aesthetic and
ascetic who is working in secret on the
figure of Truth, a nude woman, when It
is completed he presents Truth to the
people and they kill him. The second
half of the story begins in a fashion
able church with the minister pleach
ing a sermon on hypocrisy. The con
gregation files out and leaves him
alone. While those in authority are
planning outside the church to esk
DO YOU NEED GLASSES?
If You Do Here's Something to Remember
CJ The right kind of lenses will help your eyes.
J The wrong kind will hurt your eyes.
g The right kind will stop headaches.
J The wrong kind will give you more head
aches. Cf A careful, thorough examination Is important
and often shows that many who think they need
glasses are better off without them.
J Such people need our advice not our glasses.
f Our work, you see, is not to sell glasses as
glasses, but to give you the benefit of our knowl
edge to supply glasses only when glasses are
needed.
"A thing is worth precisely what it can do for
you, not what you pay for it," says Ruskin.
J The cost of our glasses is based on the value
they are to you in helping you to see better.

engage the services of trained men.
J After engaging the services of trained men, it
is a waste of money to buy cheap glasses fitted
