Much interest has been taken this week by local farmers irf methods to control morning glpry in wheat fields. This was partly stimulated by a visit made to wheat fields near Dufur by J. B. Adams, T.

There is an old Hindoo proverb which declares that it takes two to make a buggy ride. The other fea tured player is Glenn Tryon, that famously funny peanut eater wha made millions forget their immediate troubles when he made them laugh in “Painting the Town” and “A Hero for a Nigh^” , ‘ “Thanks for the Buggy Ride” is just a delightfully humorous love story, written around the composing of the popular song of the same title and was suggested by a Byron Mor gan story and written for the screen by Beatrice Van. The cast includes Richard Tucker, Lee Moran, Jack Raymond, David Rollins, Kate Price and Trixie Fri- ganza. William A. Seiter, who is the hus band of Miss La Plante, directed her starring vdliskLhllOORLeverything, into the picture to make it a glorious comedy-romance. “FINNEGAN’S . BALL” s Standing out like a beacon of fun with coherent plot in this year of almost plotless comedies, “Finnegan’s Ball,” one of the funniest screen comedies of recent years, opens at Wasco Sunday. It is a comedy with a clean laugh every 20 seconds, and retains the hilarious snap of the orig inal stage play. “Finnegan’s Ball* points the trend of motion pictures today inasmuch as all of its comedy situations are spon taneous and, fit the action of the story. And the laughs begin almost with the first foot of film and still echo after the curtain has closed over the screen. Blanche Mehaffey as the beautiful colleen, Cullen Landis as her lover, huge Mack Swain as the boisterous Finnegan, Charley McHugh as little Finnegan, and Aggie Herring as Mrs. Finnegan are the- principal players and are all to be Mr. and Mrs. Kenith Corning of Seattle and Miss Jane Beaton of Plenty, Sask., Canady were visitors at the Geo.
