Miss Compson plays the part ot a young, half American, half Hawaiian, girl who is in love with a young American, ; the pineapple! king of the island. Many are the plans which Miss Compson forms for winning this young fellow's love. In fact, she almost does away with his fiance by the aid of mysterious rites, so great is her ' love tor him. She realizes, however, what she is about to do, and at the crucial moment her real wo manhood asserts itself. The, photography, as well as the acting. In the production .is -excellent. The direction by; Julia Crawford Ivers, who also ; 'WTOte the story, is superb. One of the many noteworthy scenes in the picture is that showing the crater of the volaano Kilauea. f The heart appeal is Intense. An additional attraction - Is of fered by The Fernandos, a very clever team of novelty musicians who' seem to be able to make music out of almost anything they touch. The imitations are very clever and the playing- on the cello Is excellent. ' From a musical standpoint this offering la a nov elty. At the Bligh theater teday and tomorrow, i. E Paper Shuttles at Fast Clip .Through Salem's Busy ; Postoffice ' . v When the political scientist pro mulgated the theory that the outgo must equal the income, and that one couldn't expect to receive more than he gave, he missed it flat on the Salem postoffice. The Salem office is selling about 2500jto 3000 money orders a month. The ' half -millionth order was sold almost a year ago, j and now the serial number is just above 530,000. But they come in three times; as fast. The average receipt is about 8,000 a month. If the ' postoffice didn't have good credit at the bank so that it could get a few dollars in small change if the supply should run short, it would bankrupt itself in a "week. It doesn't sell enoueh to get the money, to pay its k bills J That's a problem for the arithme ticians in the schools to work out how can a -postoffice afford to Jay out three times as much money, every day, as. it receives? j The money comes In in the regu lar course of trade Salem is becom ing one of these hideous ' business criminals, a mail order city that oc topuses its little neighbors and sells 'em goods right under their very noses. But much more of the mon ey comes in through the remit- aices for state for state and county taxes, and for automobile and game and corporation and dog and driv ers) licenses. The state license; sys tem makes the capital city I post office one of the busiest little money-changing establishments in the northwest. With about i 300 money orders a day coming in, rain or shine, even the quiet days iat the postoffice are busy, i j ! The local office sells enough fed! eral securities to make quite a tidy brokerage business for a private bond house. The government re cently called in a number of its lib erty bonds and has offered short time treasury bonds as a substitute investment, t While much of the money from the : bond redemption has drifted clear out of the reach of the government, some of it has gone back into the hew securities, and some other outside money; also. The new bonds are sold in denom inations of 25, $100 and $1000, an astonishing number of the $1000 denomination have been sold here. The semi-annual interest coupon coming as regularly as the j clock ticks from the treasurer of the United States is a powerfully at tractive investment to many money owners, and so the big bonds find ready sale even in the heart of the lesa-than-four4ent-loganberry and farmers-taxed-to-death land.) A doctrine should be judged by the acts that proceed from it. not by the professions of Its sponsors. MONEY ORDERS COM RAPIDLY PERSONS MEALED IS E Evangelist Betts Preaches .Again to Large Crowd ; in Tabernacle "God, Our Healer" was the sub ject of the message given by Evan gelist Betts in the Tabernacle Fri day afternoon, preceding the pray ers for the sick. There was not time enough to pray for all who de sired prayers but many it is claim ed, were healed in the 1 afternoon meeting. , In his doctrine of divine healing the evangelist explained his atti tudetowards surgeons and doctors, in substance, as follows : "We never say a word of disparagement of surgeons and doctors but rather thank God ' for the help they have been to a sin-sick world in bearing its burdens. Think of the work these men halve done for the relief of suffering of the blessing alone of anasthesia in the performance of surgery on the battle field alone. They have done and are doing a noble and splendid service ito the world without Christ, and no Chris tian of understanding would criti cise or minimie this service, but for and to the Christian the touch of the divine hand of Jesus upon the body means relief from pain and sickness; and because, all sickness is the result of sin and heeling comes through forgiveness of the sin that causes the sickness. Jesus healed by saying, Thy sins are for given thee, and then emphasized the oneness of forgiveness and heal ing by asking whether it were eas ier to say thy sins are forgiven thee or arise and take up thy bed and walk. Divine healing is a part of forgiveness, and is available to the Christian who first receives the Holy Spirit and then asks the Spirit it to reveal the sin causing, his sick ness, repents of the sin and then, being forgiven is healed. But the sins causing the sickness .are so of ten unrelated thereto to the Chris tian that only the Holy Spirit can reveal them." A large crowd gathered for the evening meeting Friday. The heal ing service was continued and those not prayed for in the afternoon were in the evening services. A young people's, meeting led by C. O. Benham is scheduled for Sat urday night. Evangelist Betts an nounced two services for Sunday, afternoon land evening.
