If you don't think you can earn it, then wait for develop ments. If you want to keep up-to-date, in a year's time you might be required to scrap the instrument you will hare installed sow.

The only suggestion that I should like to make to you la not to be hasty . .. ." With so much In the press on the sound movies and the publicity bureaus so busy there has naturally been much local talk. In ' the words of Russell F. Brown, manager of the McDonald and member of the managing staff of the Rex, "We are prepared for anything." He does not believe, however, that any Immediate upheavel will come for the theaters In the smaller cities and towns. Like all inventions that bring revolutions in any industry, improvements are being made fast and furiously and it would be al most prohibitive for the smaller concerns to make paying business by Installing machines to show the "talkies." The public is demanding, how ever, and exhibitors must fulfiQ the demands. And a few months could bring many changes, in motion Sictures and theater business, even t Eugene. "CRADLE SNATCHERS" BILLED Manhattan stock company playera have selected "Cradle Snatchers" for their weekly bill at the Heilig next Wednesday afternoon and eve ning.

Dear Mary Jordan: In reHponae to Mrs. K. wishing omeoue to care for her little boy, I will Uike him and give him a mother's care. MUS. 11. ' Dear Man Jordnm In Tuesday night's Guard a mother asks for someone to take rare of her two-year-old baby for three weeks, and she claims he Is spoiled. Now, mother, you do not mean that I never hear of a wee one being hard to manage but I would like to try it, I have hod the care of over 60 chil dren at different times and never found one unmanageable child and I rarely whip, once In a while I find It necvsenry to clear the atmosphere, but really Tery seldom have to. I should like to try this mother's child, but SB it is my way of earning part of my living I ask so much a week for eflch child. I wish I could do It for Just the experience and not ask pay, 1 can give the best of Eugene references, A GRANDMOTHER, Answert My doar Mrs. H., and Grandmother, I thank you for your response, for it shows that there is interest even In a naughty child, and not just In the little wingless angola. But Mrs. K. has written me again, too, and has decided to do the Job herself. Here is what she says: Dear Mrs. Jordan t Your reply put the responsibility for my little boy's being spoiled exactly where it be longs. Yes, it Is my fault. When I first read your reply I resented it. and after I went to bed that night I thought it over, and I found you were right For I have had a job outside my home which has dlvldod the dis cipline of my little boy among three or four grown people. lie is a dear little lad, and of course he has been spoiled, because there has been no one to have the real charge of him. My husband has nrged me to gtrs ' up my job, as he earns enough for us to live nicely, but yon know how hard it is to give up the little extra money wliich a woman makes herself. But I have thonght It all out end decided that while we won't have quite as much to spend, we won't need to spend quite so much If I take back my "home job." That was my deci sion, Mrs. Jordan. I am going to do It Because now I realise that my tittle boy will only be small such a short time, and really needs a moth er's care. If I had to work outside It would be different but as It is I guess I have been selfish about It When I told my husband he was tick led to death, lie said. "Now I have a real home to work for," After once ma king np my mind to It I see all sorts of interesting possibilities. 8o we thank you, my husband, baby, and myself. MRS. K.
