WONDER DOG TO
GET IMTD FIL
Silverton All A-thrill Over
Screen Picture to Be i
Staged There
SILVERTON, Or., May 1.
(Special to The Statesman )--
Silverton Ismail a-thrill. Movie
men with cameras and cars and
everything have come to town.
Friday morning they will begin
taking the pictures of "Bobbie"
which will be shown all over the
United States under the caption:
"Botfbie, The Wonder, Dog" the
time is past when it Is necessary
to explain that "Bobbie" is the
dog who tramped from Indiana to
Oregon in a successful search, of
his master.) i
Bobbie has a beautiful head and
this will be featured with the first
caption "Bobbie, the Wonder
Dog." A short history of the dog
and his journey which brought
him fame will, follow. The well
known "Tribute to a Dog will
complete the introduction. -
A Silverton home, representing
the Brazier home, will open the
story. With this Bobbie and his
owner," a freckle faced Joywfth
out whom no dog picture would
be complete, will be shown. Mr,
and Mrs. Brasier will represent
the parents of the boy. Bits of
scenery supposedly, taken during
the trio into Indiana will be
thrown upon the screen. The Ira
portant feature will, however, be
Bobbie's long and lonely tramp
toward the setting sun. "West
ward. Ever Westward" Is the slo
gan of the picture. Mount Hood,
seen from afar off will prove a
beacon to the wandering dog. The
close of the story brings him back
to Silverton where he receives the
lavnua welcome which is but a
reproduction of the one he actual
ly received last February.
Following the close of the story
pictures featuring Bobbie's troph
ies consisting -of the" medal pre
sented to him by the Oregon Hu
mane society, the bungalow from
the Portland Realtors and thecal
lar from the Portland City Beauti
ful committee "will be shown. The
contract between Mr. Brazier and
the Portland syndicate also call
for the appearance of Mr. Brazier
with Bobbie in person at the
shnwinea of the nicture ln the
larger cities.
The Portland syndicate which
is composed ot H. H. Camp, B. G
Mead. S. E. Chambers and Frank
Heaton,- was at Silverton, Thurs
day to look over the territory pre
paratory to starting the picture
The contract calls for the comple-
ioh ' of the picture within two
weeks and the opening of it at
Portland at the end of six weeks
The idea Of using Bobbie in
motion picture originated with J
w ProRulev. a member of the
Portland Realtors' board. S. E
Chambers, who is known tor his
Alaskan scenarios, prepared this
one. The pictures will be taken
by Frank Heaton.
Mr. Brazier closed a deal this
weelf which enables him to turn"
his restaurant into new hands so
that he will be able to give his
time to the motion picture work.
Georae Graves to Leave

Three hundred and ninety-seven
automobiles had registered at .the

o'clock Wednesday afternoon 60
days -after the -camp grounds had
been opened, according to records
kept . by Superintendent Albert.
With , an average of ,; four persons

124 registered in March and 273

In 1923, the camp grounds were

automobiles had stopped at the
camp grounds, or a' total of 383
persons. With late arrivals com
ing In overnight, the number of
machines for the first two months
of the 1924 season is a little more

Ninety per cent of the licenses
on automobiles are registered in

tically all of these machines were
owned by persons who had spent
the winter in the south, and who
had become dlsgustedwith con

be accepted. All of the tourists
demand windshield stickers, but

Impressive Part of Evange

for Juveniles Yesterday
Afternoon
REGENERATION TOPIC
AT EVENING SERVICE
Lesson is Drawn From Inci
dent in Life of Nico
demus, Pharisee
Two thousand children between
the ages of 7 and 14 years, attend
ed the Demarest tabernacle meet
ing Thursday afternoon. The
schools " were dismissed early en
ough that- they could all be on
hand at 3 o'clock.
If anybody believes that Salem
the Immaculate, the aristocratic.
the self-righteous with Its 70 per
cent of people too good to go to
church, isn't in need of a moral
house-cleaning, this meeting ought
to open his eyes After a powerful
friendly talk, Mrs. : Demarest Isn't
a scold or an aristocrat or a spec
tacled dotard ; talking over the
children's heads, but a friend and
a chum who gets into their inner
most? secrets they began to tell
of the sins they - had committed,
and that they wanted, to quit and
be clean. Lying, cheating, swear
ing, gambling, stealing, smoking,
almost every sin that children can
commit, these children of Salem
said they had committed. Their
proud mammas might be horrified
at the story; they should, and bo
snouia tneir 7U-per-ent non-church-going
fathers. Little kids
whose, parents are so much becrer
than Christianity, are stumbling
block hypocrites in the churches.
confessing to such a list of crim
inal deeds
It was to help clean up suvb a
dreadful Condition that we have
urged this, great union evangelis
tic series," said one Salem minis
ter. "If the children re &oing
wrong at such a rate, so that 247
should be led to repent and profess
conversion at one meeting, and ask
for help to turn to decency despite
their parents and their friends and
all their dragglng-dowa environ
ments, it was high time that the
churches acted and got the crusade
under way. You can't never quite
undo the good that this wonderful
service-this afternoon has done."
In her main address last night.
Mrs. Demarest said that children
of like ages had confessed to her
the commission ot every crime, in
the criminal category; and that in
penance, .countless numbers ' have
proved that the confession and the
conversion has ' been as genuine
and as wonderful as that of any
grown-up who ever turned from
sin to righteousness. She makes
these children's meetings a special
ty wherever she goes,
"I don't blame them," she says
The embryo of every crime is in
every child. It may come to the
surface if the conditions are such
as develop criminallty. They need
oye, sympathy, and understanding
to bring the good to the top to rule
their lives."
Some really dramatic events
marked this afternoon meeting.
Children who had wronged their
companions were urged to make it
right before they could hope for
peace and forgiveness. A number
ot beautiful childish reconcilia
tions were effected.. There were
tears, but they were happy tears
and not hysterical self-pity.
Wrongs . that had rankled and
broken . up friendships were con
fessed and forgiven, and the world
looks brighter : to hundreds of
childish hearts that only needed
the opportunity and the sympathy
Of One who understands, to start
in a sweeter life. .
Speaking in her regular evening
sermon on the subject of regener
ation, Mrs. Demarest' drew a won
derful picture from the interview
of Nicodemus, the ruler of the
Jews, and Jesus. NicOdemus, the
Fharisee, , had seen the power of
the Master, and had been disturb
ed for though he himself was a
ruler of his nation, honored, rich,
powerful, the. Carpenter of Gali
lee had drawn the people .to him
as the Pharisees could not do. The
Carpenter had a power that , he
himself ntterly lacked, and he
wanted to know Its secret, so that
he visited the -Master at his own
home, risking his own political de
struction for having so defiled his
class faith. '
The Master gave the earnest vis
itor the parable of the wind, tht

VETEBIS OF 'Gl
Grand Army Men Entertained
With Program at Temple ,
Last Night
One of the most unique and most
enjoyable gatherings ever held by
the Salem Elks lodge was that
last night, when the veterans of
Sedgwick post. Grand Army of the
Republic, were entertained by the
lodge. ,
The 'program opened with mu
sic bv the Elks orchestra., Justice
George H. Burnett ot the supreme
court welcomed the "veterans and
response In behalf of . the veter
ans was made by Rev. . W. Per
kins. Frank T. Wrightman, dep
uty grand exalted ruler of the
Elks for the Oregon south .- dis
trict, and a member of the Salem
lodge,' was the next speaker. J.
J. Newmyer, commandant of Sedg
wick post, spoke briefly, inviting
participation of the Elks in the
Memorial day exercises.
Mr. Perklni, who previously had
responded for the veterans, called
attention to the fact that Oregon,
to his knowledge, - has no monu
ment to Edwin L. Baker, once
United States senator from Ore
gon, and who lost his life -at Ball's
Bluff in the Civil war. He ug-
aested that a movement should be
started for such a memorial, nad
proposed that in respect to Col

veterans arise and salute the flag.
This was impressively done. ,
The entertainment was conclud
ed with selections by the Willam
