Cantata, Carol Singing, Re

Games on Program
What is-described as being one
of the most delightful entertain
ments ever presented at Salem
Indian school was ' "A Joke on
Santa Claus" put on Friday night.
The cantata, which contained a
cast of about 60 of the Indian
students from the first to the
fourth grades', was directed by
Miss Judd, with Miss Gertrude
Eakln as pianist. The costuming,
the music, the dramatic Interpre
tation, all were of exceptional ex
cellence. :
. Religious rervlces are to be
held today at the school, with
something for everyone to enjoy.
The T. M. C. A. and all the or
ganizations will be represented.
In the evening "The Holy Night"
will be given by the choir, a
Christian pageant prepared and
directed by Mr. and Mrs. Ruthyn
Turney. It will be open to visi
tors from the city who-may wish
to attend. v i '- t -
On Monday morning there are
to be Christmas trees and pro
grams in each - building and de
partment, about a dozen in all.
and the singing of early morning
carols will be a feature of the
Christmas, service. At noon the
students are to have a sumptuous
dinner, waited upon "by the facul
ty and school employes. This! Is
an annual event that, everybody
enjoys. The orchestra furnishes
music all through the dinner. In

Hearts Are Gripped by Har
old Lloyd Film Now be-'
ing Shown in. Salem
A million eyes have sbed hon
est tears of joy and sorrow over
the story of. Dr. Weelum Maclure
In "The Bonnie Briar Bush.' 'How.
the little country doctor carried
good cheer and health and' com
passion to every home in his lit
tle community is a spiritual clas
sic. It grips the heart with bands
of steel.
It might reem a long, long cry
from the gnarled, hard-voiced,
broken-legged little Scotch terrier
doctor to Harold Lloyd in "Dr.
Jack,!' now running at the Grand.
But it isn't a spiritual inch. The
country doctor who cures every
ill by kindness, by laughter, by
sheer good-hearted ness, is the
same gruff Weelum Maclure,
shaved and set back 40 years to
his boyhood. It they had labeled
the play "The Christmas Spirit,"
it would not be better described.
It radiates the spirit of Christ
mas and good-will and happiness.
Haro'.d Lloyd is a comedian
who looks through clean, whole
some eyes. Ninety-nine out of
every 100 funmakers are low
grade stuff. They may evoke a
laugh over a clever situation
but there is no stain in a Lloyd
comedy. It sparkles, it plays the
wildest pranks, but it is clean and
wholesome.
The play itself, while good,
isn't a fraction as much as its
introduction and setting. The
poor young doctor -who serves
the joy of the service, is one of
the most delightful characters in
all filmdom. It is a real Christ
mas joy to urge everybody to see
this play. . ,

Hard Job Ahead, Says Man-

Game is Predicted
SAX DIEGO. Dec. 23. While
a local reception committee was
planning to welcome the west
Virginia football squad, which
had sent word from Barstow
tbat It would arrive here late
ton'ght, the Gonzaga university
Bulldogs who will meet the east
erners Christmas day went
through a hard workout this
afternoon.
The Gonzaga team was taken
to the city stadium and while the
entrances were care'ully guarded
so that none but newspapermen
were admitted, bad two hours of
stiff drill. Much of the prac
tice was of the kind that coaches
do not want their rivals to
watch. The Gonzaga players all
showed to good advantage and
Manager Mullign said they would
have no alibis to present after
Monday's contest.
"The Gonzaga boys real'ze
tbat they are regarded as the
tinder dogs in this game," he
said, "and they will play their
heads off to give a good ac
count of themselves. What is
more, we are all confident that
STstv Virginia even if it is rated
third best team of the east,-wilt
know it has been through a foot
ball game when the last whistle
Dblows."
The West Virginians sent word
here this afternoon that they
would take a short trip into Mex
ico tomorrow.
The two teams will be quarter
ed in- the same hotel In Coro
nado, different wings of the
building having been selected for
the teams.
W..S. C. Buys Plaque in
New Gonzaga Stadium
SPOKANE, WTash.. Dec. 23.
Announcement of purhcase of a
$100 plane in the Gonzaga uni
versity stadium by the Associat
ed Students of Washington State
college was maoe here tonight.
The ( act of one institution In
helping finance another's sta
dium is considered unique. The
Gonzaga stadium was built this
year.
. .It is thought probable by local
football fans that in years to
come Washington State college
will schedule some larger games
In Spokane, since the Gonzaga
stadium is ava'lable, as larger
crowds can be attracted than
at W. S. C.'s. home In Pullman.

Santa is due to desert his rein
deer and sleigh somewhere on the
Columbia highway and visit the
Willamette valley by airplane, ac
cording to reliable weather fore
casts. Those who would like to . see
the old gentleman who holds in
the hollow of his hand the power

them sad, will perhaps have le?s

since it is said his machine Is
equipped with the latest model
soundless motor.
Caroling in the rain, a group
of women from tbe Woman's club
chorus went to numerous public
places in Salem last night ring
ing Christmas carols. Twelve
private homes were visited where
sick and shut-ins were made
hapy by the joyous yuletide
tunes. The Elks' club and other
places were visited.
Friday night a group of women
from the chorus visited the Old
Peoples' home and another group
will go tonight to the hospitals
to sing for the patients.
Its myriads' of tiny globes
gleaming through the Tain, Sa
lem's Christmas tree adds a final
touch of festiveness to the down
town districts. Red, green and
white lights thine out from, top
to foot of the great tree, an Ideal
Christmas tree, as it nolds a
-place of vantage on the court
house grounds'.
The soft, gentle Oregon rain
bids fair to make of Christmas
a warm day In Salem.

A business of almost $2,600,

Growers Cooperative association
during the year just closing, ac
cording to Robert Paulus, gene

The fiscal year cioses with
April, but as the greater part of
the association products have
been sold and the remainder
closely estimated In value, it is
not difficult to give approximate
figures.

"The apple business has been
the least satisfactory of all of
the departments," said Mr. Paulus
"An exceptional crop all over the
nation, especially in the east,
where the northwest apples usu
ally find their best market, has
depressed the market and a rath
er exceptional supply of mediocre
apples has yet further lowered
the prices. Good export sales have
sold well, but the quantity has
not been large enough quite to
redeem the year's business."
There was a lighter yield in
some crops, notably the logans
and strawberries, because of the
exceptionally dry season. Yet for
all that, the Growers' membership
list has grown steadily through
out the year.
An interesting fact is that the
Growers have paid out to their
prune producers up to within
from 15 to 20 per cent of the
total value of their consignments.
This is the average payment.

The Growers still have on hand
