Oregon Theater
An Irish-Jewish epic has at last
been screened! It is the newest
: Gold Bond Special offered by F.
B. O-, namely, "Kosher Kitty Kel--.
ly. which shows at the Oregon
theater for the last time, -today.
, March 17. There Is perhaps raq
situation more delightfully hnmor-
' cms than the battle that wages
night and day In New Pork's East
Side for the supremacy of the Kel
lys over the Feinbaums. The pre-
' dicament offers a thousand laughs
' and . a number of heart-throbs
based on the genuine sympathy
.; which these opponents Incite in
all who watch their struggles.
Both races are so deeply and end
lessly rich in an abounding wealth
, of fresh humor and rare pathos.
that they seem forerer to bring
new, and delightful situations for
the delectation of the spectators.
The gay Parisians of Francois
Villon's' time must hate believed
In Santa Claus because they made
their roofs eonyeniently oTer-lap-
ping and any portly gentleman
with white whiskers who wished
to run across the housetops had
little difficulty. In John Barry-
more's new picture'The Beloved
rHogue," which shows at the Ore
gon theater March 18, 19, 20, 21,
22 and 23, the famous actor
rushes across these snow-capped
' roofs thumbing his finger at au
i thorities, hastening to his mother's
house, reaking Into his sweet
'heart's chamber and, whenever
: threatened with arrest, concealing
himself among the chimneys and

Elsinore Theater
, Rich in comedy, with a melo
dramatic flavor, and a capital
istory, Al Christie's latest comedy
- production, "The Nervous Wreck"
.shows at the Elsinore today March
17: for the last time.
1 vOne cannot follow the fortunes
'of the two nervous wrecks In this
.picture wrecks in spirit perhaps,
-hut not in their physical capacity
,to do big things in the way of
eating and causing excitement
without enjoying one's self huge
. ly. Mr. Ford was a droll figure
as the leading wreck- who has
; gone to Arizona presumably to
die, but whose escapades nearly
cause him to be lynched by the
Sheriff, his jealous rival in love
. . Jor the rancher's daughter, played
by Miss Haver. You'll , squirm
-with glee, at the antics of Conk
lin, as cook and cowboy, while
.-Swain's performance as a de luxe
'rancher will remind you forcibly
of hi swork in Charlie Chaplin's
'.. comedies, and tickle your risibili
. .ties as of old. The spinning plate
.'episode done by Ford is excellent

which the following paragraphs
are taken:
"The first of March, despite the
rainiest February for a great many
years, finds the squirrel poisoning
work well under way, and 30,500
pounds of poisoned grain were pre
pared during the month by the
rodent control force. In addition
to the poison prepared in many
counties, there were several others
that had enough held over from
last season's work to start off.
With new county agents in Yam
hill and Wallowa counties, the
squirrel campaign should be han
dled better than ever before, as
this places county agents in all of
the major agricultural counties ex

H. CRQARKIN GETS LIFE
Hammer j Jpnrderer of Six Year
Old Rojl Xot to Be Hanged
CHICAGO, March 16. ( AP)
Less than ihree hours after retir
ing to deliberate, a jury tonight
found Harold J. Croarkin guilty of
the murder of six year old Walter
Sohmlth, wliom he beat to death
with a hammer, and fixed his pun
ishment at life imprisonment.
Life imprisonment, it appeared,
had been a compromise between
the state's contention that the 26
year old son of a Chicago flour
dealer was ssne when he beat the
child to death in a north side
riding academy after attempting
to mistreat him last December 17.
and therefore, should be sentenc
ed to death,' and the plea of the
defense that he was insane then
and is Insane now, and should be
sent to an asrlum.
