An entrancing story of the
Hawaiian Islands Is "The White
Flowerv a Paramount picture
starring- Betty Compson. which
I was given its premier showing
at the Oregon theater last night.
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

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.

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. Subjects,
"Going Through with God," at 3 p.
m and "Vision" at 7:30. ;
