Capitol Theater Did you ever yearn to run away and Join a circus or go to New York; and become an actor, or any thing like that? Then you'll ap preciate Alberta Vaughn's latest starring vehicle for F. B. O., "Un easy Payments," which show at the Bligh's Capitol May 4, for the last time. The theme of the picture re volves around a girl who wins the village Charleston contest, and armed with this, goes to seek the bright lights of Broadway. Her amusing and unexpected adven tures form a picture that is both fast in action and abundant with comedy situations, and one that provides delightful entertainment for the audience. Director David Kirkland has achieved a vivid por trayal of life behind the footlights of the modern theater, and has visualized much of his own twenty years of stage experience in the finished picture. Jack Luden plays the leading support role with Gina Corrado, Victor Potel, tfetty Francisco, Lucille Ward, Lottie Williams, Billy Gilbert, Amber Norman and Eugene Stone in prominent characterizations. The screen play was written by Doro thy Lost from an original story by Walter A. Sinclair. Many Activities Noted Over Week Several North Howell People Make Trip to Salem - NORTH HOWELL.

BETHEL CALF CLUB If PRIZES Series of Seven Meetings Arranged Under Supervis-: ion of Leader i OREGON NORMAL SCHOOU Monmouth, Ore., May 2. -r-( Spe cial) Bethel Jersey Calf club of Rickreall is now on its fourth year and according to a statement just issued by their leader, S. L. Stew art of McCoy, the club has re ceived over 1499 in prizes at the state and county fairs and their stock has increased in value to more than $1000. Ernest Sears of Rickreall was elected president of the' Bethel club,, which has six ; active mem bers, who meet regularly once a month in a combined business and recreation meeting. These meet ings are conducted under the same rules as any public meeting and the boys become familiar with the rules of order. . The interest aroused through short courses and lectures by authorities on cattle raising prepares the boys for what will probably become the life work for many of them. In speaking of the value of the calf throughout the county, re presentative Stewart said, "If we could ; only interest more of the parents in this line of work, it would be only a short time until Polk countyj would be one of the leading counties of the state 1 in pure bre dstock. I think it is safe to say had' it not, been for club work not one of these boys would have had a pure bred ani mal today." A series of seven meetings have been arranged and Is being car ried out by the Bethel club mem bers and their leader. The first meeting was a get together meet ing and each member gave the weight of his cow or calf and told what kind of hay and grain he was feeding. At the second meet ing the gain in weight of the'stock Was reported and a lecture was given on stock Judging. The third meeting will be a joint meeting- with members of the Girls' Can-, ning ana sewing club and a picnic will be held, after which trips will be made to Inspect all club mem bers' stock. At the succeeding meetings the same work is carried on with stock judging of some pure bred Jersey herd. This is done under , a competent instruc tor. The last two meetings will be largely devoted to plans for attending and entering their stock in the county and state fairs. Auditing the accounts,. against the club after the return 1 from the fairs will close the series of meet ings for the, 1927 season.
