V Elsinore Theater In the Elsinore theater, Wed . nesday night, June 22," Charles Frohman will present Otis Skin ner in the romantic comedy, "The ". Honor of the Family' - Mr. Skinner's role of. the swashbuckling Colonel Philippe Bridau is the most' picturesque creation among the many memor able characterizations that he has contributed to the theater. Otis Skinner is one of the few actors now on the stage who are able by the surety of their artis try to give to a fictitious charac ter a reality and humanness that charms and also convinces. - And the treason for this is .that Mr Skinner in his apprentice years In the theater thoroughly learned his business and upon this foundation; has added an individual and total . ly personal quality of acting that has made some roles Inevitable his own. .One of these roles is that of Colonel Bridau. It is quite Im possible to conceive any other ac tor In the English speaking thea ter giving to this part the same skillful and sweeping breadth of portraiture with which Otis Skin ner has invested it. It is a-thing of art and a thing of life. "The Honor or the Family" originated in a story by Balzac and so bears upon it the magic of a master of fiction. From the . Baliac story "Un Menage de Gar con," Em He Fabre made a play . which he called "La Rabouillaise." . This latter, Paul Potter translated into English and renamed "The Honor of the Family." The story of the play concerns an old miser who has become the victim of the machinations of schemers who are greedy for his wealth. When all seems propit ious for the realization of their plans, 1 the old man's nephew, , Colonel Philippe Bridsw hhrpofc RUPTURE EXPERTS COMING Demonstrate the Famous Rice Method Free to Callers at Hotel If you are ruptured, your big opportunity has now arrived- lt you want to" be free'from the slav ery of gouging, chafing trusses that make life a burden and mis ery.' then HERE and' NOW is the time to act. - The "Rice experts, trained under - the -personal direction of -W.

Oregon Theater "McFadden's Flats," which shows as the feature attraction at the Oregon theater today, is one long, hilarious laugh. The fam ous old stage comedy has been given a brand new dress, new laughs and a new lease on life that should give screen audiences a new conception of what can be done in the way of film fun. Charlie Murray, as the hod carrying Irishman, is irresistaible, and teamed up with Chester Conk lin as a Scotch barber, Charlie proves one of the greatest comics of the screen. Of course, pretty faces and figures as well have not been overlooked -in tbe making of this picture- Edna Murphy, in the leading feminine role, is one of the most convincing reasons why gentlemen prefer blondes. Then, when Dorothy Dwan comes along photographing as a decided brunette one becomes convinced that he might prefer her without losing the slightest evidence of his gentility. "McFadden's Flats" tells the story of the struggles of an Irish man who, coming to America, has ambitions to get out of the ranks of hodcarriers and become a builder a builder of a flat build ing that might bear his name, in fact. He meets a tight-fisted Scotchman portrayed by Chester Conklin who becomes his fast friend in spite of their wide dif ferences in taste.

June 13. (Special) No minister was called at the meeting by Emmanuel church held , Friday evening fpr that purpose. A motion made by L. Oppendahl to postpone the cal ling of a pastor, was carried by a vote of 118 to 12. A motion was then submitted by J. L. Hatterberg to the effect that all services be held in St. Johns church. Instead of as de cided at the last meeting. A week ago it was decided that Norweg ian services be held in Trinity church, and English, services in St. Johns church for a, period of three months. Mr. Hatterberg was a member of the foriner3 St. Johns congregation. L. H. Meyer, chairman of the board of directors, then asked for the floor. He stated that although he had" worked hard for s& union, there seemed to be pone,, and be lieved it useless to force one. .--He pointed out the material decrease in Sunday school attendance, stat ing that other Sunday schools were being -fed by the children of Emmanuel congregation. He could not, he explained, blame any one group, 'since all were stubborn. He declared that he was ashamed to belong to the congregation named Emmanuel, because of the continous trouble. Mr. Meyer concluded by moving that the option motion be taken from the table and acted upon. This motion was made at the last meeting, to the effect that all those dissastisfied with Emman uel congregation leave it and or ganize a new one. and that all former Trinity property.be deeded to the new congregation. John C. Goplerud took the floor and said he. believed the motion was a declaration of war instead of peace. He thereupon moved that both the Hatteberg and Mey er motions be laid on the table. Goplerud's motion was defeated with 125 for and 137 against. Our LOUISE FAZEXDA Y "II W Be , TODAY " .

Mr. Lindseth, chairman of the meeting, declared that if any one opposed this motion. Emman uel church could not be dissolved without court action.- L. M. Lar son then asked how Trinity chuJi could be dissolved, as at the tijw of union a great ' many voted against it. i The first vote, was unfavorable, he said, but the sev ond voteL carried favorably with but a small majority. - Larson's question remained un answered.
