GUILD'S CUSTODY
IS
ID
0. A. C. Matron May Have
Her Child Except Alter
. nate Week-ends
The supreme court this week.
in an opinion written by Chief
Justice Burnett, modifies the de
cree of Judge W. N. Gatens of the
lower court for Multnomah coun
ty. In the case of A. O. Schmitt
vs. Alta B. Schmitt, a controver
sy over the custody or a child
following a divorce.
The court holds that neither
parent ought to be deprived en
tirely of the custody of the child.
and the decree is modified so that
custody of the child is awarded
to the mother "subject to the
proviso that for Saturdays and
Sundays of each alternate week
tbe father will have the right to
take the child with him wherever
he may wish in the state of Ore
gon, returning him to the custody
ot the mother at all other times."
The father must continue to
pay to the clerk of the circuit
court for Multnomah county $30
month for the support of the
child.
Schmitt is a physician with a
large practice.
At the time the lower court
awarded the custody of the child
to the mother it is said she truth
fully claimed that she had a home
In Portland where she could keep
him. At the time it was found
that she was negotiating for a
position as matron for one, of the
dormitories at Oregon ; Agricul
tural college, but when she later
went to Corvallis the court would
not allow her to take the child
with ; her. . , She arranged for the
child tot! be kept in '; Portland.
Schmitt had difficulty fa finding
tbeT location of the child, and
when he-did find it was informed
by the persons in charge "that the
mother had 'left him there.. and
had gone. away,', but that they did
not know where she had giua o
when, she would return."
U n d e r the t circumstances
Schmitt took the child with him,
tbe opinion says, and 'did not take
him back at the appointed thu
Upon : learning this the child's
mother returned from Corvailla
and , began the proceedings ' - on
which the court passed today.

well as upon the opinions of those
who have seen the film in pre
viewings here.
'Whe Knighthood Was In
Flower" has been done with an
elaborate detail seldom achieved
in photoplay work and it is said
that Marion Davies has never bad
such an opportunity to display
ber dramatic abiliti and her
personal charm as she has in this
release. The feature is a repro
duction of a historical period and
not a series of pictorial tableau.
It deals with a famous romance
of the Tudor period and exhibits
all the grandeur ot that day.
Marion Davies is privileged to
present a fashion review of her
own, too, for she wears many
beautiful garments of the period
her role represents. She is sup
ported by Forrest Stanley and a
cast of well known and popular
film players.
Ot the picture and her work in
It, Miss Davies said recently: "It

cause all concerned in it gave all
they had to make it good and
fine. It was a wonderful thing
for us all to do and we tried to
make our work In it worthy of
tbe subject and the times. We
tried to live the romance over
again, only we tried to feel it was
the original romance we were liv
ing."
Good Intentions
It was tha new . curate's first
sermon and he waa most anxious
to make a good impression.
As he. was a rather vain young
man he turned to the sexton and

, The sexton hurriedly departed
andi. came back with something
under his coat. .
""l know what it is. to be ner

"I've brought you a whole bottle.

"The 6teel business must be

"The meanest man in Croyden

The ciitical period in freight
car shortage apparently has pass
ed in Oregon, says a statement of
the public service commission this
week. It was said that records
supplied daily to the commission
by various carriers operating in
Oregon indicate that shippers
whose commodities hitherto have
not been in the priority class,
namely perishables, foods and
livestock, may look for early re
lief, and that their requisitions
for cars should now be met in in
creasing numbers and with more
regularity.
"Since November 22." said the
statement, "all orders for refrig
erating and healed cars on the
Union Pacific system east of Port
land have been supplied, and since
December 6 all orders for such
equipment have been met fully by
the Southern Pacific on Us lines
south of Portland.
"While a shortage ot box cars
and open cars still exists on the
latter lines, the Southern Pacific
company on December 11 had 220
empty cars available to meet its
orders, and that at, the same peri

"The Oregon Electric. Oregon

weeks shown a slight surplus of
empty cars in orders in all classes
of equipment.
"The situation on the O. Wr. P.

the same as last month. Every
effort is being made by that com
pany in conjunction with the com
mission to secure the requisite

Her Dress Prescribed by Xw
The Mussulman women in Tur
key have ot recent years thrown
aside the "feredj" and the "yash
mak" and have adopted the Euro
pean style of dressing, exposing
the face, arms and shoulders, but.
as in most cases, they have swung,
to the other extreme and it has
been found necessary to appoint a
commission to decide upon the
matter of woman's dress in the
street. In the house she may do
as she pleases, but in public she
muBt conform with certain re
strictions. This commission, has
prepared models which are exhib
ited for the purpose of informing
the women of the country on this
subpect. A special garb has been
designed for students.
