THE OREGON STATESMAN, SALEM, OREGON
THURSDAY MORNING, APRIL 28, '1927
5 I DE L. I G H T S OF THE '
STA(SiggCREN
t . Elslnor Theater
Two children in an enchanted
' 1
garden, listening to the music of a
violin weaving its magic into their
heart and binding them together
forever"; this is the memory that
a boyj and girl cherished through
,lnng. jearsr until they found one
another again.
Porter? created this beautiful
heme! a her last and greatest
story. 'The Magic Garden,'! and
tt may be seen on the screen as an
V B. O. release at the Elsinore
April 28 for the last time. The
picture! opens when the boy and
girl met in a place of enchanting
loveliness and there in the glori
ous garden, they pledge their love
Ilofwever, fate decrees that they
must part, but all through the
years .that follow, their Inspiration
is the remembrance of those few
hours and the hope that they may
be reunited again. The girl's part
a played by Margaret Morris who
lnrists the role with an ethereal
quality, while the boy's screen self
is interpreted by Raymond Keane.
Oregon Theater
' Lea trice Joy may be seen in her
latest star production, "For Ali
mony Only,? at the Oregon April
The comedy scored tremen
dously and proved a genuine
cinema delight for all who wit
nessed the premierer. This ad
mirable William de Mille produc
tion deals with the evils of ali
mony and revolves around two
women, one the divorced wife of a
man who is n arrears in his ali
mony payments and his present
wife who goes to work as a decor
ator in order to help her husband
meet his financial obligations to
his former wife. Naturally, this
brings about more or less embar
rassing situations, all of which
are filled with drama and appeal.
Miss Joy Is the second wife,
Lilyan Tashman, the first, and
Clive Brook, the husband. All are
admirable in their portrayals.
Casson Ferguson, "the friend" of
the ex-wife, to whom she devotes
the major share of her alimony,
vests his role with his customary
virility. The supporting cast is
excellent in every respect. On the
whole,, the production -is of the
finest quality and fully deserves
the plaudits it evoked.
Farce is only drama in humor
ous terms.
That Js the definition supplied
by William A. Seiter,; one of the
screen's leading directors of farce
and light comedy,, whose latest
production, "The Cheerful Fraud."
starring Reginald Denny shows at
the Capitol April 28.
Farce comedy plotr in most
cases might easily serve as drama
tic stories except for their treat
ment and the performance of the
leading man.
The only difference besides, of
course, the interpolated "gags"
la that the characters are robbed
of their-heroism and romanticism
and consequently, are made only
slightly more ridiculous than they

tions In real life.
We weep at the tragedian's
troubles in drama, and laugh at
the same troubles when the com
edian suffers them.
; An excellent example. Setter
points out, is Eugene O'NeilPs bit
terly tragic play, "Desire Under
with a few alterations, a change
of setting and an elimination of
the murder in the end could serve
as an outline for a typical French
farce.
Another instance is pointed out
by Seiter in Denny's recent pic
ture, "What Happened to Jones,"
The hero, on the eve of his wed
ding is called off and the girl
starts to marry the rival. Of
course it all ends happily, and it
was regarded as Denny's funniest
picture, yet there is nothing basi
cally funny in these happenings
unless they are treated humorous
ly.

IN THIS DISTRICT
Some of the Notable Ones
Here, and Old Vines Bear
ing Tons Each Year '
More grapes are going out every
year In the Salem district. Some
day, before long, we are going to
be able to point with pride to a
grape boom here. Every one with
acreage, and nearly every one
with a town lot, ought to have
grapes. .
J. R. ("Jim") Linn of Hotel
Marion, , Is planning a country
home on his farm four miles
south of Salem; a dream home,
surrounded by fruit and ornamen
tal trees and a vineyard. It is only
15 minutes by auto from the heart
of Salem, but is off the main road
in a quiet vale. He is adding an
acre to his vineyard this year;
white grapes: Niagaras. This will
make four acres. He planted his
first grapes in 1915; Concords
and Wordens. Uses the stumping
system. Expects to produce fire
tons to the acre and this will go
on as long as he lives, and 1000
years more, if the vineyard is tak
en care of.
Mr. Linn believes this Is a good
grape country; that we should
have grape juice factories here.
He grew grapes in California, with
the best of them, when he was a
young man. his people grew
grapes when he was a boy. He
Deneves j.in -grapes. He grows
them on his hop farms, along with
cherries and asparagus and many
other products that excel here
with the proper cultural methods.
While he is a hotel man and a
nop grower and merchant, he is
at home as a "dirt farmer." like
Governor Patterson. He thinks
the hoe is one of the best, instru
ments for exercise that conduces
to good health and a spirit of rest-
fulness from worries in the tur
moil of the city. He has added a
swimming pool to his dream place
four miles south, and pure bred
Jerseys and other rural things. He
will add the house in due time-
with wide porches and cool shades
and beautiful views.
Our Largest Vineyard
Frank Fiala, since' deceased.
started growing table grapes for
the northwest 'markets 28 years
ago. Now his son, Arthur J.
Fiala, farm is located just three
miles from the Salem end of the
steel bridge across the Willamette
river; a mile east of the Wallace
road in Polk county. Near the
river; .rich bottom land. The
Fiala farm produces only one
variety; a sport of the Campbell's
Early. It is produced no where
else on earth. It was originated
on that farm. These grapes go to
Hhe fruit stands
of the cities of
the Pacific northwest. They are
table grapes. They go in fancy
branded lugs, bearing the name.
Fiala Vineyards." They sell
year after year on merit. They
are a delicious table grape. The
Tines are trained high; the Fiala
way. Peculiar to itself. To get
the sunlight. Producing a delici
ous fruit. The Fiala vineyards
turn off 70 tons or more a year,
from 16 acres.
The Fiala farm, 34 acres in all,
has also 10 acres of asparagus.
Fancy asparagus. Nicely brand
ed; properly marketed.
This is a business, run on a
farm- A family affair- Makes
good profits every year. Has a
trade name that is valuable. This
is the largest vineyard In the Sa
lem district, and the most success
ful as a going, growing business.
Good for all time.
Mr. Fiala believes his exper
ience may be repeated many, times,
hundreds of times, in this district;
that we may have grape juice fac
tories here, with Salem a blr grape
center. In the mean time, he has
an established and growing, mar
ket for all the grapes he can pro
duce. And a permanent business.

Great Grape Vines
There are many old grape vines
in the Salem district. On the
Clyde La Follette place at Wheat
land, a few miles below the Fiala
place, there is a grape vine as big
as a man's body at the base, and
bearing nearly two tons of grapes
annually. Had two and a half
tons one year. The La Follette
grapes are of the Concord fam
ily. On river bottom soil, like
that of the Fiala land.
On the Steve Merton place at
St. Paul, about 20 miles north of
alem, there is a Concord grape
vine that Is over a loot inrougn
at its base. It bears a ton or more
of grapes each year.
In the Mt- Angel district, in
Marion and Clackamas counties,
there are many fine vineyards,
some of them producing great
crops. The layering system is
usied extensively in that district,
giving 10 tons and more to the
acre.
There are also some wonderful
old grape vines in that section,
comparing favorably with the La
Follette and Merton viftea men
tioned above. t '-

Grape Vine News May Come
to Be a Thing of Reality
and Not a Joke .
Paper is to be made of grape
vines. This will recall to the
newspaper trade the hoary joke
about "grape vine news' or no
news purporting to come over the
wires that is in reality made up
in the office where its printed.
And, by the way, some of the best
and most reliable news ; in every
newspaper is grape vine news. It
Is added by editors who know the
facts. Every piece of news com
ing by wire, In fact, is; more or
less colored in the office Ireceiving
It; by the telegraph editor who
adds the heads, and often makes
Interpolations out of. his knowl
edge rendering the wired report
more interesting or intelligible.
; But experiments are going on
all the time with various veget
able growths, looking t the raw
materials for wood' pulpj to make
paper. To make newspaper stock,
and ledger stock, and all the rest
of the various lines of paper used
in commerce.
Every vegetable that grows and
will stand up, froma weed to a
giant tree of the forest, has, some
cellulose. That is what! all paper
is made of, principally. The cel
lulose is the pulp stock. ! The rest
of the wood is lignin, waste. About

r Grape Vines From Salem
Recently, a man was here in Sa
lejn looking for grape cuttings. He
Interviewed Jim Linn, of Hotel
Marion, about his grape cuttings,
from his . vineyard four miles
south. He got several tons of
grape cuttings from thej Mt. Angel
district, and shipped them away.
Experiments are being made
with such cuttings! in Oregon and
in California. They are said to
make a tough paper. A fine pa

used in making rayon, or artificial
