T N GOLDWYN FILM They knew what they wanted and they got it. The single phrase might sum up the theme idea be hind Henry King's production of "The Magic Flame" for Samuel Ooldwyn which comes to the Ore gon theater today for a two-day run. Throughout the entire 9.000 feet of film, Ronald Colman and Vilma Banky are in constant pur suit of their own dream of happi ness achieved in their own man ner and in: their own sphere of life, and through a constantly rising tempo of thrills and dram atic climaxes, they finally attain their desire. From the first hundred feet of film where the gay and carefree atmosphere of the romantic little Italian circus is established, to the last fadcout where Mr. Colman and Miss Banky, their struggles forgotten, are back in the atmos phere they love, the picture was made as a blend of high comedy and grtni tragedy.

(AP) Flapper" dresses and low-cut gowns will not be permitted at the Imperial Coronation ceremonies which will be held at Kyoto next November. Foreign women will not. be excepted from the order. This decision was reached by the Household department, which has charge of all the rules, and regulations pertaining to the en thronement, after consultation with foreign envoys who will rep resent their countries at the func tion. Extremely short skirts and low- cut frocks, the Household officials: explained, were not in line with Japanese customs and inappropri ate to the solemnity of the cere monies. So the wives and daugh ters of the foreign diplomats must govern themselves accordingly. In addition, the officials point ed out. the great hall at Kyoto, where the enthronement rites are to be performed, will not be heat ed and it is their endeavor to 'protect the foreign women visit ors against the cold."

Governor Smith indicated that he favored a short. Intensive peaking campaign on, his part with speeches limited, but com mittee members went away con vinced that he intended to cover much ground on his stumping tour, going into as many states as possible.

They'll tell you that it is liluted with gasoline; that a thousand miles of ordinary driving with "wet" gasoline will likely dilute it 50 or more. "Wet" gasoline, condensing inside your motor, runs down the cylinder walls; ruins your oil; wastes power; wastes fuel.
