RIALTO MONDAY In tho yeara to come the world war will have a very largo part in history, many volumes have been written and many more will be writ ton on the subject but the United 8 1 at o8 signal corps has preserved by means' of tho motion picture camera the progress of actual conflict, a his tory of flaming cannon and men en gaged In hand-to-hand fighting, more thrilling and more vivid than any pen could describe. "Flashes of Action" has been shown throughout tho country under tho auspices of tho American Legion nnd has drawn capacity houses wherever exhibited. Many 1 ex-service men will be ablo to recognize . battle fields on which they saw ac tion. Although tho film is exceptionally clear, tho horrors of war have been minimised to such an extent . that gruesome details do not stand out. YAKIMA, Wash., May 3. O. P. Nelson, manager of the refrigerator car department of tho American Hallway association at Chicago, nnd H. M. Triest, Chicago representative of the bureau of service of the inter state commerce commission, visited Yakima yesterday. "For the commission, I wish to sny that wo are hero to look over the situation to see what wo can do in the interests ol the grower in getting his crop to market," said Mr. Priest. "The situation looks much better for a car supply in 1 )23 than it did last year. "While you can never hope to get as many cars as you need at just the time you need them, I am sure thero will bo no crop losses this season, duo to a lack of cars, although thero may bo somo market losses due to. not getting into markets at tho penk of prices." "While I would not go so far as to predict a 100 per cent supply, I will say that the situation looks much better than it did last year or the year previous," Mr. Nelson declared. S PORTLAND.

Springer & Lee Opposite Rialto Theatre A full house was kept in a continu ous roar of laughter last night when the clnss of '23 of the Modford high school presented the three act farce, "Stop Thlof" by Carlisle Moore at tho Pago theatre. The play afforded many humorous Incidents but it was easily seen that without the ablo direction and acting which was evident many of the most humorous points would have been overlooked. Owen Donovan as William Carr, father of tho bride, Madge Carr, por trayed by Jean Vilm, believed himself a kloptomaniae and attributed to him self the loss of many of the beautiful wedding presents which disappeared Just before the ceremony.' Ho gave a splendid portrayal of the part. Leonard Lindas,- In the part of James Cluney, the bridegroom, also thought that he was developing into a kleptomaniac and blamed himself for the loss of numerous valuables which wero actually being stolen by Nell, the maid nnd her accomplice Jack Doogan. Lucille Alma'ck as Nell and Fay Bragg as Jack Doogan, crooks turning their Inst job and getting ready to get mar ried and sottlo down to the "straight and narrow," were excellent, especial ly Bragg whoso part demanded consid erable dramatic ability for the proper development of the climax. Margaret Van Scoyoc as Mrs. Carr, the mother of the bride, whose jeweled ear trumpet was among the missing valuables, showed excellent stage presence and articulated her lines with a clarity unusual In an amateur. Catherine Edmeades and Katherlne Lindley as Joan and Caroline Carr, sjstcrs of the bride played their parts most creditably. Rev. Mr. Spelain, the minister, was well delineated by Paul Gannaway as was the part of Jameson, a stock spec ulator, by Eddie Sauderstraum. George Stewart as Dr. Willoughby. in love with Joan, did one of tho most Important parts in a very creditable manner. Richard Slnglor as Joe Thompson, "tjie best detective in Rhode Island, " was excellent. Seldom has Medford seen a better amateur character than tho orthodox stage detective portrayed by Singler. Potor Iiateman as Sergeant of po lice also gave a very good perfor mance and during his time on tho stage was one of tho chief mirth pro vokers. Miss Daumgartner is to be congratu lated upon the success of the perfor mance which was even more humor ous than the memorable performance of "Clarence" by the class of '22 and equally well done. The entire cast deserves a great deal of credit for the diligent effort which must have been put forth to produce such evenly balanced and un faltering performance. The stage set tings by Tom Swem were matchless as usual. I Joan Carr ...Catherine Edmeades Mrs. Carr. Margaret .Van Scoyoc Caroline Carr.

The first of a series of monthly membership meetings of tho Medford Chamber of Commerce was held last evening at the Medford Hotel nnd it developed that whatever advertising is to be done for Medford and Jack son county should be under tho su pervision of somo expert advertising agency in order to secure the best possible result for tho money so ex pended. Thero was a strong sentiment that thero are a good many peoplo living here that will have to be sold to this locality and that the advertising must be for tho dual purpose of selling them as well as tho outsider. Tho by-laws were amended so that tho dues aro now twelvo dollars and fifty cents per annum.

Pink ham' Vegetable Compound Pittsburgh, Pa. "I took Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound before my little eirl was born, and the effect it had was wonder ful. This will be tho first child I have nursed, as I had to bring my two boys up on the bottle. I was very nervous and worried, tired all the time, and after I read about tho Vegetable Com nound I tried it and kept on with it. I still continue its use and recommend it to my friends. You may publish these facts as a testimonial for your medicine. "Mrs. Wm. Klingb, 169 Plymouth St., Pittsburgh, Pa. It Is remarkable how many cases have been reported similar to this one. Many mothers are left in a weakened and run-down condition after the birth of the child, and for such mothers the care of the baby is well-nigh impossible. Not only is it nara tor tne mother, Dut tne child itself will indirectly suffer. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound is an excellent tonic for the mother at this time. It is prepared from medicinal roots and herbs, and does not contain any harmful drugs. It can be taken in safety by the nursing mother. mm SOLD HMPOOO PENDLETON, Ore., May 3.
