Then Act or Ignore "As Kve in her thirst for knowledge ate. So I, too, wish to know my fate." ; These words, repeated by a maiden on Easter morning : as she munches an apple are said by Kastertime supersti tions to be the magic by which she may tell whether or not her, lover - is true. If there is an even number-of seeds in the apple, he always wljl be faithful ; if an uneven number, he la only a gay young dog and likely to prove unfaith ful. ; -' ': Here is one for the folks, on the farm : It is lucky to find the eggs of wild birds on Easter morning and. eat them for breakfast. 5 Not much, chance for this city dweller Sophisticated city birds are careful where they leave their: eggs.

There Is plenty of encouragement for lovelorn damsels in the superstition that a red egg presented to a man on Easter will cause him. to i love the giver. All a girl has to do, apparently, is to save up enough money : to buy an egg, ; then daub it with Easter egg dye and use good judgment in handing it out.

It is .bad luck to wear new clothes during the three weeks following Easter. To baptize a baby on Easier is a good omen. ' If you see a star fall Easter night, you will lose a lover.

A sketch, semi-rural in character, ex ploiting the . wiles and snares a city slicker uses to i promote a real estate boon;, is played by AlleaJLindsay and company in "Hokum." Something new in spectacular acro batic offerings is offered by E. Wille and company. -A sketch, "Just for Fun," in which Lee arid Homburg appear, is one of those funny skits in which Bob Homburg Impersonates an office boy, who in the absence of his' superiors takes unto himself the running of the office.

Journal's Screen Magazine Covers Diversity of Topics There is hardly anyone who hasn't giggled over Lewis Carroll's poem on "The Walrus and the Carpenter" and its oft-quoted line : " The time has come,' the Walrus said, 'to talk of many things, of ' ships and shoes and sealing wax and cabbages and kings.' " According to the management of the People's theatre and the Majestic theatre and other theatres in Portland which have handled occasional issues of The Oregon Journal Screen Magazine, there is not another feature in f ilmdom that talks of so many things, or does it so cleverly and entertainingly. The Oregon Journal has adopted the Screen Magazine for this territory and the Universal "Film Manufacturing com pany is cooperating in the preparation and distribution of it. One who watches the programs of the leading'-' theatres of Portland : will find there Issues of The Journal Screen Magazine and as more are released they will be able to find it a regular feature of attraction at their favorite theatre in the city.
