Bankers say that never was there so sudd.'n a transformation in finan cial conditions as has been manifest in the last sixty days. Many country banks that were borrowing to the limit three months afro have paid their loans and accumulated balances with their correspondents. Most of the increase in deposits here is due to the larger balances of country banks. Reports from Nebraska say the turn of the tide has given an impetus to real estate, that more farms will change hands before the season is over than in the last four years and that prices will advance 10 to 25 per cent. Si:y days ago farm ers considered that they were doing business at a loss: now they are con fident of profit. Depression and dis courapement have given way to hope fulness and courape. All eyes are now turned on the corn crop, which gives promise of a full averape yield in Kansas, most of Oklahoma, and in Nebraska, if the frost date be wull delayed. It is es pected that the month's crop report will show fullv as hiph a promise as did August, with perhaps improve ments in Kansas, which is especially favored in both wheat and corn.

"The Enemies of women, made by Cosmopolitan Productions. a mapnificnt photoplay, following closely his famous story, is the opin ion voiced by Hlasco Ibanei in a let ter sent to Cosmopolitan Productions. Ibancs's letter reveals the fact that. while the Cosmopolitan company was making the exteriors of the nlm in France, the celebrated Spanish author gave up hia literary work to live the life of a nlm actor. Lionel Barrymore and Alma Reu bens come as the stars." he writes. nd I found the whole company very good. All the actors, even to those playing minor roles worked with en thusiasm and Alan Crosland, the di rector, is a very intelligent young man who knows his work very well. I think we have produced a mapnifi cent piece and one which will very much please the public. "For a whole week I abandoned my literary work to live the life of a film actor. 1 got up at b o clock each morning and at 6 o'clock was at Monte Carlo where I stayed with the company until night and always be side Mr. Crosland to help on with the work. 1 put him in touch with people who have lived more than thirty years on the Cote d'Alur and who know ail the picturesque spots, even those which are most mysterious and unknown by outsiders. I also so ar ranged matters with Miss Mary Gar den that the Casino at Monte Carlo pave us permission to film scenes in the Casino and on the terrace of the Garden. After this 1 talked with the Ministers who constitute the govern ment of the Principality of Monaco and they gave me permission to make scenes of the Prince's palace where the historic cannons are, and also in the Prince's garden from which there is a magnificent panorama of the sea. It is the first time that the govern ment of Monaco has given any such permission. "Altogether, 1 did everything that I could and I am sure that the film will be a magnificent reproduction of the Cote d'Aiur. No American film could ever do more on the Cote d Arur." "The Enemies of Women" will be shown on Sunday and Monday. In addition to Lionel Barrymore and Alma Reubens, who are featured in the picture, the cast includes Pedro d. Cordoba. William ("Buster") Col lier, Jr., W. H. Thompson, Gareth Hughes and Gladys Hulette. Elusive Eats Keep Wesley Barry Busy Wesley Barry, the youthful screen star and delight of millions, recently spent a vacation in that bold, big and bad city of New York, but the befreckled lad was not ao much im pressed with these qualities aa by his adventures in several one-armed lunch places where you wait on yourself, "1 went in there for the fun of it. and to study some New York typea," he says, "but gimminy-crickety, 1 waa so busy sleuthing after my food that I hadn't time for anything or anybody lse. "First I tackled my coffee, left it on a table, and went back for a hunk of pie. I got the chunck of the hand sewed-top variety and returned, but tne coffee just wasn't. So I put do.vn the pie and went back for more coffee. hen I got back 1 found the same joker or nickel-saver had grabbed it. Well, just then the manager came and I demanded to know if he were running a crook's den. He investi gated and in a jiffy came back with my coffee and pie; it seems 1 had left my coffee on one table and my pie on another. Just got my geography mixed, so to speak." Even funnier things happen to Wes ley in his latest starring picture "The Printer's Devil," which will play at the Star Theatre Friday. He runs into a hundred snags at the printer's devil of a country newspaper who tries to help his boss in his love ro mance and only balls it up the more. The story was specially written for Wesley by Julieu Josephaon, who knows all sides of a boy. Wesley Barry's supporting cast consists of Harry Myers, Katherine McGuire, Louis King, George Pearce, Ray Cannon, Mary Halter and Harry Rottenberg.

The trsn?est task ever given c'aver in motion pictures has fallen to the lot of tiaretn nugnes in ron Veen's new Paramount star picture 'The Spanish Dancer," wnicn win oe tie feature at the Star theater Tuos dv and Wednesday. Crinrine under the lasn wnicn lam across his naked back in one of the strongest scenes in this fascinating story of old Spain, Gareth Hughes visualises the sufferings of one hia own ancestors, who underwen aimilar torture by officers of the Inauisition. The story has been tradition in the Hughes family for four centuries. According to the tale, s certain David Hughes sailed from Cardiff in 1603 in sn English trading ship. The vessel was captured by the Spsniards and taken into Cadis where Hughes and his companions were tor tured by officers of the Inquisition. Many died but Hughes survived. He was kept in close confinement snd died in captivity many years later. Hughes' role in "The Spanish Dan cer" is that of Lasarillo, a prisoner who Is sentenced to undergo lonure for a slight offense. In his chsrsc- Urliation of Lasarillo, Hughes reacts to the grim tragedy which belell nis long dead ancestor. "The Spanish Dancer" is Pole Negri's third Amerl csn made picture. AX INTERESTING FEATURE. Carried each day in the columns of the East Oregonian at Pendleton is interesting feature under the heading of "Twenty-Eight Years Ago.' We often run across items of interest to Heppner folks, noting occurrences of the time, and here is one publish ed the past week: One night last week. Mrs. Hallock mother of Homer H. Hallock of this city, who lives with her daughter. Mrs. Dutton near Heppner, met with a very remarkable experience. During the warm weather the Dutton fam ly and Mrs. Hallock sleep in the open air. The otner nlgni Mrs. nanocs called out in great pain. Investiga tion was made and to the astonish mentof the family a porcupine was seen a few feet away from Mrs. Hal lock's bed. It was killed by Mr. Dut-j ten, and from the hand of Mrs. Hal lock 63 porcupine quills were with drawn. Mrs. Hallock has suffered greatly from the quills. It is unlike- y that a more unusual affair has been reported in Oregon in many years." APPOINTMENT HELD UP. Salem, Sept. 16. No appointment of a successor to the late Justice John McCourt is to be expected today and probably not before Thursday, it was indicated by Governor Pierce this njorning. At a conference with members of the supreme court it was pointed out that an appointment would not be necessary before Sep tember 30 when the court convenes for its next hearing. The governor declared that he would therefore take the appointment under consideration for several days. WHAT A FACTORY MEANS. No state in all America surpasses Oregon for quality of produce nor ease of producion. But, securing a market has been a serious problem. Have you ever stopped to think what a factory mans to a community to a farmer? If the factory employs one hundred men, it means one hundred fnmilies with four or five hundred mouths to be fed. It means the dis- j tribution and redistribution of thou sands of dollars of pay-roll money to pay the grocer and the butcher and the clothier and the druggist snd the I owner of the motion picture theater, ' all of whom have clerks and employ- I ees, ali of whom have to eat and have to be clothed and amused. They all fall back upon the farmer for food for meat and for grain and for fruit and for vegetables. Oregon Business.
