The
And
Jackie Coogan Shows
New Genius in My Boy
To be a star at six yars of age is
a sign of genius -nothing less.
And that Is what Jackie Coogan Is
a genius. This likeable little chap
is appearing at the Star Theatre on
Wednesday and Thursday, January
10 and 11 in "My Boy."
Jackie proves that a person doesn't
have to be an. adult to be a motion
picture star.
There iun't any emotion which
Jackie cannot register and register
with a punch. He is a born actor, if
thireevr was one of that species,
and it is a constant delight to watch
him at work on the screen. All of
his pictures are far too short; one
wishes he could sit forever and watch
this little actor going through his
part.
"My Boy" Is excellent entertain
ment; not only because the '"kid" is
in it, but because he has a story,
written especially for him, which fits
him like the proverbial glove and
which gives him full opportunity to
display his varied talents. The story
is that of a llittle immigrant orphan
who lands in New York and escapes
deportation by the immigration au
thorities through a ruse. He wins
the hearts of all those with whom he
comes in contact, and eventually finds
a home, joy and peace.
If we had had the time we would
have seen the picture for the second
time. That's how good it is. Jackie
Coogan and "My Boy" strike a re
Kponxive chord in the hearts of alT
human beings.
Former Heppner Man
Visits Here This Week
Roy Glasscock, son of Mrs. W. W.
Smead and a former resident of

a very great ways from Mt. Vernon,
and it has been Beveral years since
he viniud in this city. He states
there is not much about the town
that looks natural to him except the
hills, and these, of course, do not
change.
At one time Mr. Glasscock was en
amored of the newspaper game and
engaged in that business both at
Pilot Rock and Pendleton, along with
Tom Nelson, who had taken over the
plant of the old Heppner Record.
When he had been left alone in the
business by Mr. Nelson pulling out,
Roy turned his thoughts into differ
ent channels, finally getting into the
stock raiing game over in the Grant
county hiiiH, where he has been quite
huccessful and well contented. His
place is known as "Illihee Farm" and
should any Heppner friends be pass
ing that way, Mr. Glasscock would
be pic awed to have them make him a
call.

legislation. Salem Convention
Goes Oa Record Favoring In
troduction of Bills.
Salem, Ore., Jan. 2. Thirty-five
county school superintendents in
conference here today went on record
proposing a number of new laws for
consideration of the legislature at
its next session.
One of these bills will provide that
a school district may vote money for
the establishment of a teacherage,
playsheds, barns and woodsheds. At
the present time the law does not
permit voting money for these pur
poses, although a number of district
have expressed a desire to do so.
Another bill, which will be prepar
ed here tomorrow for submission to
the state superintendent of schools,
will provide for the compulsory at
tendance in school of all children be
tween the ages of fi and 16 years, de
spite that they live beyond tho three
mile limit. At the present time chil
dren residing more than three miles
from a school are exempted from at
tendance. The third proposed law will pro
vide for the election of three direc-tora-at-large
in union high school
units comprised of less than six dis
tricts. Under the present law the
board of directors is composed of the
chairman of each of the school dis
tricts represented in the consolida
tion. Another proposed law will provide
that in cases of vacancies in the offi
ces of clerk or directors of Bchool
districts of the third clans the coun
ty school superintendent may fill
such vacancy by appointment.
Request also will be made for the
enactment of a law whereby teachers
will be apportioned by the county
school superintendents to school dis
tricts that suspend their schools and
transport their pupils to other dis
tricts for training.

"Conquering Power"
Taken From Balzac
"The Conquering Power" is an
nounced by the Star Theatre for Sat
urday. It is a Hex Ingram produc
tion for Metro and in it Mr. Ingram
has had the assistance of all the prin
cipals who aided him in making "The
Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse,"
the superb production that it was.
At its New York premiere, "The Con
quering I'ower" was acclaimed with
unstinted enthusiasm. The cast fs
headed by Rodolph Valentino and
Alice Terry.
It in an adaptation by June Mathis
of Balzac's novel, "Eugenie Grandet."
The scene is laid in a provencial city
of France, where the miserly old
Grandet hoards his gold and lives in
poverty with his daughter, Eugenie.
A nephew, Charles, a young boule
vard icr from Paris, son of a bankrupt
suicide, in thrown upon the miser's
charity and is accordingly thrown
out, shipping to Martinique with lit
tle money, but with the treasured
memory of Eugenie's love. This is
the beginning of Balzac's tremendous
story of love and greed.
In the screen version Alice Terry,
the exquisitely beautiful Marguerite
of "The Four Horsemen," has scored
a sensational triumph through her
portrayal of Eugenie. Rodolph Val
entino, whose Latin temperment and
graceful fascination fitted him pre
eminently for the role of Julio in
"The Four Horsemen," is cast as the
Parisian dandy, Charles. Ralph Lew
is, one of the most effective of char
arter actors, plays old Grandet. The
photography is by John F. Seitz and
the technical directors are Ralph
Barton and Amos Myers.
