The Iron Mask Coming Tomorrow Hunt's Craterian SCOUTS CENTRAL POINT CRNTRAIj POINT. Ore.. April 1. (Special) fJirl Scouts of Ccn trat Point Troop No. -I0 celebrated t h ei r fou rih a n n I vg rsa ry w 1 1 h a banquet Friday n ht at the high school. Seventeen CJIrl Scouts, under the leadership of I heir captain, pre pared and served a. full hIx coursf dinner in one hour. The decorations of buttercup yellow and daffodils added greatly lo the beautifully set tables, which the girls look great pride in ar- ranging. This i"' all -a part of Seouling and will long be remembered as the happiest parly ever held by this troop. The Girl Pcouts were grouped around' the tables ue ording to rank, tenderfoot, 2nd class and at the head table, near their, cap tain and the' five charter mem bers who have become leaflet's in this district. During the dinner fllrl Scout songs were sung and each girl was called upon to tell what scouting meant to her. The captain called the roll of honor for each year since they were started and gave a short history ot tne uoop. After the dinner a court of - awards was held. Twenty-eight mor.t badges were given out. Nine Olrl Scouts received tenderfoot badges and two second class. Twenty-three Chi Scouts sent in their fee of fOe to be registered at national headquarters for an other year, with their captain. I.oomfs Davidson was voted first lleutnnanft May Flcher. second lieutenant. These Olrl S.outs will he glad lo answer any questions in re gards to scouting and help all Ciirl Scouts in (his troop. "The Iron Mask" is the most art istic of nil Douglas Fairbanks' pic tures. Doug is In his most con genial type of role, that of a swash buckling swordsman, and moves along at a merry rate over a suf ficiently interesting plot down to one ot the inspired endings of screen history, rating with such classical fadeouts as Charlie Chap lin in "The Tramp" and Kmil Jan nings in "The Way of All Flesh." T lie c u r re n t Fa i rba n k s relea se Is different in several respects. First, Doug, who is to the Amer ican public the spirit of eternal youth, ages In the middle of this picture, though retaining his viril ity: secondly, all love interest fades out of tlie picture before I lie middle, the latter hall bein pun msm-plol; third, Doug is frequently out of tile picture for long inter vals to allow extraneous plot de velopment; fourth, there urn less of Hie Fairbanks acrobatics in this than in his former offerings. "The Iron Mask" opens a five days' engagement at Hunt's Cra terian tomorrow. U the Ms. Tn "Ned Mc('obb' Daughter.' now playing at the lsis. Irene libit is seen as the moiiter of two chil- dren.
