From out of Enigmatic India came
1 invitation for an American Dele­
gation to study its ancient mystic arts
and sciences, for the purpose of later
admitting the delegation into the
sanctuaries of Tibet.
Seven hundred members ot the Ro­
sicrucian Order, AMORC, a philo­
sophical fraternity, assembled at their
1938 convention in San Jose, Cali­
fornia, who received the invitation for
the Andhra Research University in
Madras district, voted to accept it
and send a delegation in 1939.
William E. Buell, of this city, a
member of the Rosiclucian Order,
who has just received an official re­
port of the International Conclave
just concluded, states that the dele­
gation will include the Grand Sec­
retary of the Order, Ralph Lewis, and
two others, including a motion picture
cameraman who will take with him
complete sound recording equipment
Representatives of the Order will
study certain rare manuscripts avail­
able at the University, to ascertain
the truth or falsity ot the claims to
phenomenal power and control of
Natural Law made by the followers
of the Mystic sects of India. While
making this research, negotiations
will be made by the University offi­
cials, who include the Maharajah of
Jeypore, for the party to visit certain
secluded Tibetan monasteries in the
Himalayas, where it is hoped permis­
sion will be granted to film hereto­
fore unrevealed customs and rites
of the Llamas who are alleged to
have miraculous powers.
Mr. Buell also states that the dele­
gation will be sponsored by the
Rosicrucian Oriental Egyptian Mu­
seum, an affiliate of the Philosophic
Order. Nine foreign countries and
every state of the Union and Province
of Canada were represented at the
recent conclave. An exceptional fea­
ture of the convention was the first
showing of the sound motion picture,
"Along Civilization’s Trail,” which
was filmed by a Rosicrucian camera'
expedition in Egypt and Mesopo-'
tamia in 1937

Beauty At Roxy Theatre “Mayerling.” A whirlwind court­
“Danielle Darrieux!”
The ivory-inlaid pen which in­
scribed that signature at the bottom
of a motion picture contract 18
months ago in Paris, started in mo­
tion one of the most elaborate oper­
ations in the world of modem enter­
prise—the making of a feature film.
It put 3,000 men and women to
work at Universial studios, skilled
technicians, carpenters,
designers,
painters, property men, fashion ar­
tists, seamstresses, film editors, cam­
eramen, writers, and provided jobs
for hundreds ot extra players in her
debut film, Universal’s "The Rage of
Paris,” coming Sunday to the Roxy
Theatre!
That signature (very round and
bold for such a diminutive signer)
placed on the dotted line of that lu­
crative long term contract, marked
the pinnacle, to date, of one of the
most amazing careers in the rather
fabulous history of the cinema. A
few years ago, Danielle Darrieux
was a fourteen year old girl in a quiet
Parisian neighborhood, reading her
sdfidolbooks and practicing the violin-
cello. Then, just on the spur of the
inspiration, she answered an adv. in
a newsaper for a child actress in a
film, “Le Bal," and got the job.
From thence proceeded a parade
ship and marriage at seventeen to
Henry Decion, one of France’s lead­
ing scenarists and dramatists.
A
furor-creating debut on the Paris
stage. Xnd now, Hollywood star­
dom at twenty-one.

"What is this meteoric young per­
son like?” it may be asked. “What
is the secret of her astonishing suc­
cess?”
The answer is that she is young, vi­
brantly alive anod completely with­
out affectation. She has put her
career ahead of every personal inter­
est, sidestepped all social affairs to
concentrate upon her work. She has
gray-green eyes, light, copper-bronze
hair and a delicately formed figure
which tips the scales at one hundred
and ten pounds. She was bom in
Bordeaux, France, on May 1st, 1917.
In "The Rage of Paris,” Danielle
plays the part of a little French girl,
who jobless and broke in New York
takes a job posing in the nude for a
famous artist goes to the wrong ad­
dress and starts disrobing in an ad­
vertising agency. _

eration are the descendants, and first
settlement of Henry and Dorothea
Schroeder, and their four sons and
one daughter, the foundation qf the
present generation. All of the first
generation are now deceased.
Those four sons, J. Henry, August
H., John Fred, and Charles E., and
one daughter, Louisa, are today rep­
resented by .fully two hundred per­
sons, Including daughters-in-law and
sons-in-law, and their families, most
of whom live within the confines of
Coos county.
Those present at this, the last re­
union, who reside out of the county,
were: Kenneth Carl, his wife and
baby, of McMinnville; Alice Hite, of
San Diego; Clarence E. Schroeder,
wife, one son and two daughters, of
Corvallis; George T. Schroeder and
wife, of Florence; and Helen (Sweet)
Mayes, husband and baby, of Cali­
fornia.
Henry Schroeder and wife, four
sons and one daughter, were mem­
bers of what is known as the Balti­
more Party. This company of per­
sons came from Baltimore, Mary­
land, leaving April 7 for New York,
leaving there April 11, 1859, for
Oregon by boat via Isthmus of Pan­
ama. and from the Pacific shore of

team and by walking to the Coquille
river, and from there to their final
destination by row boat to two and
one-half miles south of Myrtle Point,
where they settled on 124 acres of
virgin land, May 22, 1859, where the
father and mother reared the family
of four sons and one daughter, at the
place for the 1939 reunion. .
The Baltimore party of forty per­
sons were of the early pioneers of
Coos county, and their descendants
now number among many of the
prominent and substantial citizens of
the county.
