Can a Man Who Runs a Ship Run a Woman? The Brute Master An absorbing story -of how a frivolous, money loving girl, blind i to the finer thing of life, is re generated through a baby she finds in a park, and who awakens her maternal instinct, is told in the George Fitxmaurice produc tion of "Paying the Piper," which coms to th? Grand theater-for four days next Sunday. Itjs the sort of story that will interest all classes, because It deals with the real basic things of life. Barbara V.'jndham, the spoiled daughter of a New York million aire, has lost h"r appreciation of the finer things of life. She marries Larry Grahame. son of another millionaire, because all girls of hr set marry so that they can be divorced and be "smart." After the marriage a Wall Street panic sweeps away their wealth.

I "Straight is the Way" is the picture title for the story "The Manifestation of Henry Ort" by Ethel Watts Mumford. which will be presented at the Oregon theater soon. The book title was excellent for the story, which hung upon the supposed spirit manifestation of Henry Ort through an ouija board to Aunt Mehitabel and Dor cas. But it was unsuitable as the title of a picture drama. Sugges tions for, a title were called for and the name "Straight is the Way" was offered by Phil Carle, Mr. Vignola's assistant, being tak en from St. Matthew's version of the Sermon on the Mount, refer ring.' of course, to the "straight and narrow" path to righteous ness. Matt Moore and Gladys Les lie have the leading roles. Some of the most remarkable achievements in the use of wild animals for a motion picture are said to have been accomplished in the product.on of the Jamea Oliver Curwood story, "Kazan." Most remarkable of all is said to be the work done by the wolf dog who plays the part of "Ka- zan the killer." In one scene this dog is shown with his mate, a real wolf, and her litter of whelps in their cave. In another scene the reat. black, curly-haired dog chases and captures a rabbit in the snow. He carries his prey back to the cave and its inmates. TODAY SPECIAL VURUTZER CONCERT First Show Only TODAY (1) "The Palms" (2) "The Holy City" (3) "The New Colonial March" Doors open at 1:45 p. m.
