Stanton Rowell Music and Photo House 507 80 O St. JOE TEST OF There are few more highly gifted actors than John Barrymore, whose amazing versatility manifests itself with equal force in tragic as well as In comic roles. Belonging to a fam ily distinguished for a century in the annals of the stage In America, Mr. Barrymore's artistry as a player Is inherited. Although a' favorite on the speaking stage, with his serv ices in constant demand, he nevertheless succumbed to the lure of the screen and when his, first motion picture. "The Man from Mexico." appeared, he found himself more famous than ever. Since that time he has appear ed in many photoplays under Famous Players-Lasky auspices, and it is a remarkable fact that for the greater part of the time since he entered the silent drama, be appeared on the stage at night while his leisure hours of the days were devoted to the cam era! In 'The Test of Honor." which will be shown at the Oregon theater Wednesday and Thursday, Mr. Barry more will be seen in a new and pow erful dramatic characterization, that of a man who prefers to -become a convict to exposing the criminality of the woman he loves. Mr. Barry more's work in this splendid photo play doubtless will accentuate his fame. SIMORS'M NEW ROUTE TO THlTXOAST Judge C. O. Gillette, in company with Mr. Sommers, ot the California highway commission, and Mr. Hodg- den, of the Oregon state highway commission, has just returned from a viewing trip over the proposed new route from CrsJits Pass to Crescent City..
