Frivolous Sal Tells Thrilling Narrative fie v$5& Y W .WJ i : Eugene O'Brien Mac Bu,6h w" Frivol oils 5a,." A thrilling story of a pioneer mining town of the west. In which a girl and a small boy help a man find himself. Is the basis of J. K. McDonald's latest First National photoplay, "Frivolous Sal," which conies to the Oregon theatre today. Victor I. Schertzinger, noted di rector, was engaged to transfer to the screen this story from McDon ald's own pen- The cast includes Eugene O'Brien, Mae Buech, Ben Alexander, Mildred Harris, Mitch ell Lew la and Tom Santschl, Frivolous Sal" has a scenic background the like of which has rarely been seen on the screen In a dramatic production. Rainier Na tional park. In northwestern Wash ington, and the great mining re gion of Idaho's Couer d'AIene were chosen as locations. Except for a few excursions of scenic photogra phers, no motion picture camera has ever before recorded the ma jestic beauty of Mount Rainier. Some of the story's most Impor tant action takes place in a huge cavern that a stream of melting ice has carved out under the fam ous Nlsqually glacier, near the top of Mount Rainier. Amid these marvels of nature the tensely dramatic love story of "Frivolous Sal," beautiful girl of the pioneer mining camps, and her sweetheart, a stranded actor, has been filmed. There Is thrilling ac tlon from the start, with a climax in which two men battle for the love of the girl while suspended from a wire tramway over a dead ly gorge. PEN F O R U Contributions to This Column must bo plainly written on one side of paper only limited to 300 words In length and signed with the name of the writer. Articles no meeting these specifi cations will be rejected. To the Editor: In as much as the debate concerning the Battleship Oregon has not as yet been settled, and as an aid to settle or conclude the debate, I propose the follow ing suggestion that the Battleship Oregon can be made self-supporting: First, as a temporary or perma nent home for many disabled ex- service men; Second, as the official bead quarters for all military offices and activities conducted through out" the state; Third, as an object of interest to curious tourists who would be charged a nominal sum for a trip of inspection throughout the ship; Fourth, as a training vessel for reserve naval officers, and Fifth, to place the battleship In the Portland Harbor where It rightfully belongs. In explanation: As a temporary or permanent home for many disabled ex-service men. The ship would have to un dergo a remodeling, to construct the rooms, to furnish the offices, and other spaces. The men and officers, requiring rooms aboard the ship shall pay a rent for the use of their rooms, a rent that Is compensatable to the mainten ance of the ship and yet is not detrimental to the occupants. Tht ex -service men who made it a per manent home, could be employed ns guides Tor tourists, as caretak ers m general for the ship, and In any way In which they could be made useful. As the official headquarters for all military officer and activities throughout the state. The Adjut ant General's office, his office of records, the military office de partment of Oregon could be es tablished there. All Oregon would be Interested In making the old ship an everlasting monument, a well as a place of Interest to tour ists, A charge of admission, say ten cents or twenty-five, to be made to defray ex pen sea and es pecially during the visiting hours. As a training center for reserve naval officers: Every year they spend so much time on a training vessel. Where could they obtain better training than upon the Bat tleshio Oresonf The legislature has voted $30,000 for maintenance. Using this amount to rebuild the ship in or der that It may be self-supporting, I can see no reason for con tinuing the debate and letting time have Its way with the condition of the venerable old hull. I request that this matter be gone into very carefully and thor oughly and that it be immediately. Thanking you. I am Respectfully, II. L. CLARK. To the Editor: I see by the 4i torials in the Statesman that they are In favor of this new amend ment to the constitution, in regarJ to child labor. If so, why not practice what they preach? Thi thing of getting children out of bed at 3 o'clock in the morning to deliver papers all over the city in all kinds of weather Is sure go ing some. If you can show me, where a young boy working In a mill or factory out of the bad weather doesn't beat that Job would like to see It. Many boys before they are six teen get through high school. Can you Imagine a young man like that having to lay around until 18 years of age, before he can go to work to earn something? More than likely he would be loafing on the streets or smoking cigar ettes, or getting Into some other mischief. Oregon has a good law now, and under thia law I know of cases where parents have vouched or swore that their children were 16 years old so they could go to work and earn something so they could contlnuo In school, by so doing also help the family. What would it be under the new amendment? Such a law means another army of office holder and law enforce ment officials and mora taxes. The Anti-saloon League at first was only after the saloon, but look now at the extremes they have gone to. Such will be the case If this amendment if adopted, it will go to extremes the same way. Before I was 18 I could do a man's work and keep It up many days. I carried the bricks and mortar up on a two story building and the man up there did all the work? I am now 62 years old and still able to do a good days work. I do not think work ever hurt me In the least. It was the need of work I wanted most, to help our family along. Probably If that young girl In San Franscisco had been employed in some shop or factory and her mind employed on doing some thing useful, she would not have had so much time for jaxx and would not have killed her poor mother who wa t it ing to do good for her and bring her up right. I sincerely hope the Oregon leg islature will adopt no such amend ment. Tours truly, A SUBSCRIBER. Salem. Jan. 19. FOR REFUGE AC! !( To the Editor: 1 wonder if cur editor wilt give me a little space in The Capital Journal to civ. my views on the proposed cmiu labor law. i won tier if those good people who are so syuiputhUk with the dear children are g-V'ti to provide a home free of chargi to three children of parentB wao have to earn their living by th? sweat of their brow. If they arc. where will it be and by whom run? One reason we taxpayers have to work so hard to Keep a roof over our heads and be free of debt lb just to make a nice suit cushion tor such suit soapers as those who are agitating this law.

FREEMAN SPEAKS ON DALLASJNDUSTRIES Dallas, Ore., Jan. 24. Dan Freeman, manager of the Associ ated Industries of Oregon, was one of the speakers at the Oregon products banquet at the Dallas armory last night, at which 250 persons were entertained by the Dallas commercial club and the Dallas women's club. Oscar Hayter, of Dallas, was toastmaster, and Mrs. Fanny K, Bishop ot Salem, responded with a speech. Proceeds from the ban quet will be used for fixing up tb6 court house square. . The federal migratory bird rufuge bill no pending in con ijreaa would take away from Ore gon and other states their rights over game control and at the same time would insure less protection for wild fowl than now provided by state law. Captain A. E. Durgn duff, stat.1 game warden, and oth ers declared at a hearing of the joint game committee. The game committee's room overflow' ed with sportsmen from many sec tions of the state on hand to eup port the Kirkwood memorial which would call upon congrew not to enact the proposed law. William L. Kinley, nationally known bird expert, and W. S linker, of the Isaao Walton league of Portland, were the only repre sentatives on hana to oppose the memorial. finley declared that pasa.nsc ot the migratory biro refuge bill was necessary . provide breeding reserves in various sect it) ns of the country. "Millions of acres have been drained and dried up depriv ing migratory birds of their breed ing grounds," he explained. "An area greater than the total area ot the Great Lakes has been drain ed during the past few years. It est lakes tor birds in flight are Im perative. The Paclifc states and the middle west would be the mam sections benefited under the law because the sites for refuges and rest lakes are not available In eastern sections. Sportsmen will be provided with certain sections at specified times when they aiw shoot on these proposed federal ro se rvea." Burghduff explained that Ore gon now had 114 refuges for gam.1 with a total area of 14,206,000 acres. Approximately 2,000.000 additional acres will probably be placed In reserves, according to Burghduff. "The biological survey ot the federal government since 1913 hns had the power to cut down bag limits," declared the stato game warden. "It has not done so. Under the federal law one could take 140 birds a day were It not for the state's own protective measure." Baker, of the Isaac Wal lo.i league, c" arged that It was a jpirit "ot petty larceny feeling that promtea the memorial now being considered." The federal government could not take over land for refuges without the con sent of the state legislature, be explained. Among thos on hand with Captain Burghduff to support the memorial were Earl C. Simmons of Eugene, representing the Stale Sportsmen association; Dr. Chea ter Moore, ot the Multnomah An filers and Hunt ere club; Dr. John (iill of Lebanon, representing Linn county sportsmen; W. W. McNealy of KlamMh Falls; W. L. Crowe ot the Portland Gun club; W. R. Wallace.of Eugene, and Ben Dorrls of the game commission. The game committee will likely make its recommendation on the memorial next week. Dallas Defeats Lebanon Dallas, Ore., Jan. 24.
