TITS GAZETTE-TIMES, HEPPNER, ORE. THURSDAY MARCH 22 191T -t i' TAOE FOUR AMUSEMENTS For Safe z NINE POINTS OF MERIT . IN "WANTED-A HOME" In support of the claim of Bluebird Photoplays, Inc., that "The Play's the Thing" the five-act drama, "Wan tedA Home" will be exhibited at the Star theatre on Saturday, March 24, and as in substantiation ot its superiority over the ordinary variety ot motion pictures the following points of merit are specifically ad vanced: 1. The Smalleys, comprising Lois Weber, and her husband, Phillips Smalley. directed the production and Miss Weber provided the scenario. The preponderant essential to a su perior moving picture lies in the skill in which Its actors are directed, once a play is accepted for presentation. 2. Good direction very naturally waits upon a good play, and the fact that Lois Weber has furnished the story is assuranre in this instance of excellence. In substantiation, witness previous releases on the Bluebird program from Miss Weber's pen; "The Eye of God," "Shoes," ,'Saving the Family Name," etc., etc. 3. Proficiency in directing has been attained through the natural ar tistic sense possessed in such abund ance by Miss Weber and her husband. Their united efforts have produced aome of the greatest photoplays ever shown upon the screen; "Hypo crites," "Jewel," "Where are My Children?" and the master Bluebird, "Shoes," may be mentioned among the creations of the Smalleys. 4. Mary Mac Laren, the heroine of "Shoes" and "Saving the Family Name" is the leading lady in "Want ed A Home" and in her third Blue bird the pretty Scotch lassie has an entirely different part than she has ever played; a role bringing to the surface new stratas of her abundant talents and artistry. 5. The story of "Wanted A Home" fixes the position of thousands upon thousands of orphaned girls who must struggle alone against the besetting temptations heedless or ac tually wanton citizens of the world present in alluring procession. To live rightly, to succeed against ad versity and to gain happiness as the victory for fighting a good fight or else to fall in humiliating defeat. The story of Mina Rogers, the or phan, in "Wanted A Home," will appeal to every heart. 6. Every individual in the support ing company has been chosen because of the individual player's particular fitness to play .the role assigned' to them. Nannie Wright, cleverest of character women; Grace Johnson and Marian Sigler, two pretty ingenues; "Kewpie" Morgan, a rotund and wholesome comedian; Chas. Marriott, Ernest Shields, Jack Mulhall and Dana Ong complete an evenly profi cient company of artists. 7. In the matter of equipment, where the artificial scenes have been creatd, no expense has been spared to lend an elaborate fitness to the occa sion. In the natural settings some ot the most beautiful vistas in Califor nia have been caught by the camera and presented to the screen as com ponent parts of the unfolding story. 8. Completeness ot detail has ever been the salient point ot success In establishing the popularity of Blue birds. The same lavish expenditure of money, benefitted by experience in producing photoplays, will lend an especially meritorious attractiveness to "Wanted A Home." 9. Finally, it Is a Bluebird; and with Bluebird "The Play's the Thing." Commercial methods have been at last applied to photoplay pro duction, and Bluebird, as an organi zation, is depending upon its previous production for present success and future prosperity. It it's a Bluebird it must be a good photoplay. If tt fs not a good photoplay, It cannot be a Bluebird. "Wanted A Home" will carry an appeal to all types of theatregoers; for there is a good purpose, set forth effectively in gripping scenes, with the embellishment of numerous scenes that will awaken practically every emotion human nature is heir to and a good lesson will be present ed under the engaging motive ot pleasant entertainment. in hand to satisfy the costs of taking up and keeping of said animals, and all other expenses and costs herein.

Briefly stating, there are four fundamental reasons why every farmer whether a producer of beef or dairy cattle should build a $ilo. FIRST-The silo is the medium through which a highly palatable, succulent food is produced for winter consumption. Fed along with alfalfa and a small amount of grain it makes a balanced ration. Silage not only promotes health but also stimulates the appetite and aids digestion. SECOND A silo insures you proper feed for the summer months when the pastures dry up, thereby avoiding the check of growth in beef animals and the flow of milk in dairy cows. THIRD Insures high food value per cu bic foot, therefore, one of the cheapest meth ods known for storing feed. All the digesti matter in ouring is practically saved, besides less labor in storing and feeding. FOURTH A silo frequently saves a crop which otherwise might be damaged or a to tal loss. Rains often come at a time when it would be impossible to save an early cutting of alfalfa, clover, oats, peas, or grasses, or an early frost may nip the corn. You can put any crop in the silo whatever the weather'' conditions are. Any green crop properly ensiloed will furnish a succu lent food very beneficial to all farm animals, but through out the United States, dairymen concede corn silage to be the greatest stimulent for milk production known. . Beef producers are not skeptical in pronouncing silage one of their most important feeds. ' Investigate the Tum-A-Lum $ilo LOW IN COST, EASILY CONSTRUCTED, STRONG DURABLE, SELF-SUPPORTING.
