pinions free." Then followed a

films that have been offered here
this year. ; is:
- From an entertainment and
educational standpoint,' "'Barbara
Fretichie," with its historical
background and its fine strain' of
romance, is a production that ap
peals to everyone and Is one that
can be. recommended without re
serve to anyone, young or old.
The distinction of the cast of
notables appearing in "The Great
White Way gives a novel feature
to this picture that is decidedly
unusual. It is seldom that such
personages as Arthur Brisbane,
Damon Runypn, .Jockey Sande,
George McManus,, Tex Rickard
and a score of others equally well
known will consent to appear per
sonally in a moving picture. They
are all in this one.

of the record it established upon
the occasion of its first showing
in the city last spring.
Among the banner attractions
scheduled for later in the week,
Harold Lloyd In "Hot Water" will
probably be the most popular be
cause of the super-abundance of
laughs contained in the film. It
is sure-fire comedy with plenty of
punch as it is said to be one of
the best that Lloyd has ever done.
It is to open at the Liberty on
Wednesday and will also be
shown at the Grand for Thanks
giving day as well as the Liberty.
Its showing at the latter theater
is indefinite.1
Today the Liberty is offering
Patsy Ruth Miller in "My .Man,"
with Dustin Farnum playing op
posite, and that attraction will re
main on the screen there until the
coming of Harold Lloyd on Wed
nesday. One of the most talked of pic
tures of the current season, and
one starring an old - favorite, . is
billed for the Oregon on Tuesday,
when "Dorothy Vernon of Haddon
Hall opens its engagement.' :
Mary Pickford, America's little
darling, plays the role of Doro
thy, and here is what she has! to
say of the production:
"In my judgment "Dorothy Ver
non of Haddon Hall' is the best
picture I have ever made." ;
Rounding out the week is what
has been perhaps the most talked
of picture of the year, the screen
version of .Elinor Glyn s startling
romance, "Three Weeks." At the
request-of the woman's clubs of
the city Manager Stille announces
that no one under 18 years of age
will be admitted to see this pro
duction., . : 5 t ,:
"This announcement means just
that," said Mr. Stille. "We agree
with these women that "Three
Weeks" is not the type of picture
to be witnessed by children, but
the demand for its showing here
has been so insistent and the
moral lesson of the story is so
compelling that we -have decided
to; offer It in restricted showing
at the Grand theater opening next
Friday."

sending hot air by mall is an old

Berlin Says Auto Busses
Will Help City Transit
BERLIN", Nov. -4. (AP) Con
fronted with increasing street traf
fic, Berlin has decided to operate
automobile busses. During 1925
260 busses, running on 14 differ
ent lines, will ber installed. The
new cars will seat 54 persons each,
and will have upper decks.'
Manager Kaufmann, of the Ber
lin Autobus company, who recent
ly ; went to the United States to
study cityl transportation - condi
tions, believes the bus is the ve
hicle of the future for congested
metropolitan . districts. He says
YRDS that measure only 35 inches and 1 5-ovince
pounds are out-of-date. Advertising has put them
clear out of business.
Manufacturers who advertise must give value, because
they have a good name to protect. Manufacturers of
well-known products and the merchants who sell these
products often value the names at millions of dollars.
They cannot afford to jeopardize the worth of these
names by selling any but good goods of full measure and
! fair price. ,

i A merchant or manufacturer cannot afford to advertise
I merchandise that will not give servcie. The penalty of
such tactics is too heavy.
I You can bank on this. Advertised goods must be as
I advertised. That is why it pays to deal with advertisers
! and to buy advertised products. The advertising is
i your protection. . " ' . .
