"If." asked George B. Guthrie
owaer of the Elsinore, "you can
see fit to pause for a moment lii
what I find to be meaningles:
garrulity I might say a word 01
possibly a half-dozen!"
- f O. B. Guthrie seldom speaks
but when he "opens his lips let no
dog bark."
And bo It came to pass thai
there were great quantities of si
, lenoe.
, r "I hare always tried." he weni
on. "to call a spade a spade al

spade."
"Here." said he, "endeth the

"Today we have a picture. You

only lair. If it is possible, to let
the Elsinore patrons realize just
how good it is."
On the stage, "The Student
Prince." the film which opens al
the Elsinore today, drew jammed
houses wherever it was shown
Broadway, and other great street
of the world, lifted a metaphor!
cal top hat to something that war
wonderful, unusual.
As a film it has gone and done
likewise. Occasionally D. W. Grif
fith U Inspired to the extent that
he produces a film as marvelour
as "The Student Prince" but the
word "occasionally" was used ad
visedly.
An ugly scar on the face of a
student in old Heidelberg Is duly
Honreclated. And a man's honor
ilwavs is held greater than ha
life. Duels have been frequent.
But all through "The Student
Prince" there is manifested the
lore of living. Student days, with
their care and joys, are well de

SUCCESS THWARTS HER AMBITION
-events programmed in connection
with the 18th annual conference
ot the organization's supreme
council in this country, to be held
April 9. 10 and 11. in San Fran
cisco.
In a great pageant-parade one
of the five divisions will consist
exclusively of Scout troops cos
tumed and bearing insignia repre
sentative of the different nations
in which scouting is firmly estab
lished, including England, France,
Italy, Belgium. Sweden, Norway.
Denmark. Switzerland. cSotland.
-Mexico, China and Japan, each boy
being either of foreign nativity or
alien-born parentage. Heading the
line will be a mammoth float sym
bolizing "World Brotherhood,"
and some of the troops will march
r to music from instruments Identi
fied with the country they repre
sent, the Scottish section having
bagpipes and the Chinese contin
gent fiddles and cymbals. It will
be a spectacular and noisy stirring
.of the so-called "melting pot."
At a banquet to be staged in the
Palm Court of the Palace hotel the
university of scouting will be
stressed in various ways. San
Francisco's consular corps will oc
cupy tables embellished with the
"colors of their respective nations
and in the decorations there will
be a lavish mingling of foreign
flags with the stars and stripes. In
4ils introductory talk the toast
master. President Charles C. Moore
pt the local scout organization,
wtll stress the fact that the Boy
Scouts is the only non-racial and
Con-sectarian body to be found
throughout the civilized universe
-and that no populace on earth is1
equipped with cosmopolitan equal
to that of San Francisco, as is ev
idenced -by the personnel of its
scout troops.

All her life Aileen Stanley, American vaudeville and revue star,
has dreamed of receiving a royal summons to sing before the King
and Queen of England at a command performance. Now she has
been accorded that honor, but producer of the show in which she is
absence.
Approximately $350,000 will be
expended during the coming sum
mer for the protection of timber
lands coming under the jurisdic
tion of State Forester F. A. El
liott. This area comprises a total
of over 10 million acres of forest
land, practically all In private
ownership, with the exception of
a million and a quarter acres ot
revested O. & C. lands which are
patrolled by state and private in
terests under contract with the U.
S. forest service.
The above estimated budget is
for patrol. Improvements and
equipment alone, no figures being
included for fire suppression. It
Is based upon the expenditures for
a normal year but, in case of an
abnormally hazardous fire season,
additional funds will be available
for increasing the field personnel
to whatever extent Is deemed nec
essary.
Expenditures for fire fighting
vary so widely from year to year,
being entirely dependent upon the
character of the fire season, that
it is impossible to make any ac
curate estimate ot the amount
needed. Hence such sums as are
necessary will be contributed by
the various organizations as the
necessity arises.
Preliminary work, which has
already been started in many of
the districts, will be in the nature
of improvement and maintenance
work. This will include the open
ing up and clearing out of approx
imately 3,000 miles of old trails
and roads, repair of 1,3 trO miles of
telephone line and repair and con
struction of cabins and lookout
towers.
New improvements will consist
of the construction of at least 150
miles of new trails and roads in
order to open up Inaccessible sec
tions of the country so as to make
it possible to get fire fighting
crews and equipment In without
unnecessary delay. Approximately
100 miles of new telephone line
will be constructed in order to
connect up new lookouts and
patrolmen's headquarters and gen
erally improve the .efficiency of
the telephone service.
Reports received from many oi
the wardens who have made tripF
throughout their districts are to
the effect that maintenance work
.-an be accomplished at consider
able less cost than has been pos
tible at any time during the past
several years.
This is due to the lack of snow
fall and severe windstorms during
the past winter. Snow Was ' not
sufficiently deep to break tele
phone lines to any great extent
and wind-thrown trees and debris
is far less than is encountered in
any normal year. Consequently
there are few trees to cut from
telephone lines and trails and lit
tle debris to clean out.
Maintenance work will consist
mainly of cutting away such brush

as has overgrown trails and tele
phone lines during the pt year,
reducing heavy grades In present
trails and making minor repairs
to cabins and lookout houses.
With the shortage ot snowfall
during the past winter, there Is
the possibility of n erl7 lr
season; hence protection agencies
are making every effort to com
plete all maintenance and im
provement work as soon as pos
sible in order to have everything
In readiness when the fire season
does break.
The total protection organiza
tion that will be In the field at
the peak of the season will num
ber over 300 fire wardens. Thes
are the requirements for a normal
season but. should occasion re
quire, additional men will be
placed in the field. t
During the early part of the
season only sufficient men will be
placed in the field to take care of
the necessary Improvement work.
As this work is completed and the
fire season approaches, these men
will be shitted to patrol work. Ad
ditional men will be employed as
conditions demand.
Issuance of Lurnlng permits
during the arly part of the fire
season, which begins on May 15,
has been quite a problem in past
years owing to the lack of field
men available at that time to at
tend to the many requests re
ceived. In normal years the fire
season does not start until later
than May 15 and hence few men
are in the field. In order to take
care of this work, the state forest
er has arranged to place ten in
spectors in the field on April 15,
whose principal duties during the
first few weeks of their employ
ment will be to Investigate and list
as many slash areas as possible.
taking notes as to owners and re
quirements necessary for safe
burning.
An especial effort will be made
to reach all farmers living In for
ested districts who wish to burn In
connection with their land-clear
ing activities.
The list secured will be filed at
district headquarters so that wheb
requests are received during the
closed season, they can be Issued
immediately without the necessity
of a personal inspection of the
area to be burned.

the '"Old and New China."
A very interesting paper writ
ten by Mrs. Lunger of Lafayette,
on the subject "How to make our
Missionary Meetings more Spirit
ual" was read by Mrs. Embree of
Dallas.
Rev. G. L. Lovell. presiding eld
er of the Salem , district, gave an
address on the "Importance of the
Woman's Missionary Society to
the Church." He threw out the
challenge of the wonderful oppor
tunity for missionary work In the
outlying districts here in Oregon
"Many young people." he said
"back in the hills have no rellg
lous training in Sunday schools
or missionary societies."
The Salem auxiliary of First
Evangelical church repeated the
dialogue. "How not to do it." This
represented a missionary meeting
carried on without preparation
prayer or method. Everything
was done In a haphazard way. the
money was raised in questionable
ways, was misappropriated and
sent in too late. The secretary
was slack in keeping her minutes,
and the treasurer kept no accurate
account. The spiritual side was
crowded out. The president was
late and had forgotten to attend
to the details of the work.
Those In attendance from Salem
were Rev. and Mrs. F. B. Culver
Mrs. Isabel White, Mrs. Walter
Lambkin. Mrs. Heroert McDon
ough. Rev. and Mrs. G. L. Lovell.
Mrs. H. E. Evans. Mrs. A. Burgess,

Thompson.
These institutes are held each
year over the district for iustruc
tion and inspiration. It was a
stormy day, but there were eleven
auxiliaries represented, with 84
delegates, some coming more than
GO miles.
A bountiful dinner was served
by the Albany ladies, during which
Rev. Abel entertained with a cou
ple of readings. Dallas has invited
