with the grim reaper in Salem
and vicinity during the month of
November, with 33 births being
recorded aa agaimt 52 deaths, ac
cording to the monthly record o!
births and deaths given out by Dr.
C. E. Oashatt, health officer for
the Salem diatrict. Counting out
the deaths from the state hos
pital and the tuberculosis hospit
al, the births would have exceed
ed the deaths.
- A very peculiar and unusual
thing about the births for the
month is that in all of the 33 ba
: bies there were not two names
the same. The nearest that two
children came to having the same
r.nme' was that one girl was nam
ed Evelyn and another Bernlce
Kvelyn.

Critics wherever It has been
shown declare It to be the great

and Portland It has been doing a
record business.
Bruce McRae, the man who
created the role " of Charles
Brandon in Julia Marlowe's pro
duction of "When Knighthood
Was In Flower," Is probably bet
ter able .to pass Judgment on
the picture than most anyooay
else. A short time ago he viewed
