The club went on record as highly In favor of the move, which It Is felt will not only lessen mileage expenses of the state police, but will greatly Increase state police protection over southern Oregon.

This la the first picture that I have seen in which I liked Raft. Be fore, he has always appealed to me as a gangster type of the worst kind, from the lower East Side of New York The fact Is, he pretends to be noth ing else, so that shouldn't be held against him. I suppose. At any rate. I'm now a minor Raft fan. If I see many more pictures in the near future with London for a locale, I'll be saying "Blimey, oP fell ow." Just like that. That cockney accent is refreshing for a change, but not so hot for a steady diet. Couldn't very well picture Lime House without It. though. This is a show that you don't want to miss.

The picture Is based on the stage play by George S. Kaufman and Alexander Wollcott, which was one of the hits of Broadway the past season.

DANCE DINTY MOORE AND HIS ORCHESTRA Dreamland n4 in i Tonite Men 35tf Ladies 10 DANCE SCREEN REVIEW who becomes indebted to Charley Young, a half-caste Chinaman, por trayed by Raft, plays the Ingenue to perfection. There are many thrills In the .pic- (By Dick Applegate.) With the element of oriental mys tery skillfully blended into the story and photography of "Lime Howe Blues," that picture, which opened yesterday at the Rlalto theater, offers the best vehicle yet to be produced to exploit the peculiar talents of George Raft. Known as a "hoofer" In the cinema world. Raft's dancing In this picture can not be com pa led with his work in "Bolero." but In every other detail he has Improved, to my way of thinking, tremendously. With only & few vacant seats In the house last night, the crowd was evidently pleased with the picture The story Is one of smuggling, mur der, revenge and love, and while all that sounds blood-and-thundciy, the fact Is that the work Is so smoothly done as to not leave a bad taste in the most particular mouths. Jean Parker, as thd pickpocket w.Uf Why You Should Never Cut a Corn If you are troubled with corns or callouses, do not run the risk of blood poison by paring them. Statistica show that many Infections have oc curred from this seemingly Innocent practice of paring corns. Simply go to your druggist and get a few rente worth of Ice-Mint, rub a little on the painful corn or callous. Immediately the pain will disappear and In a short time the corn or cal lous will loosen and lift off easily with the flngers root and all leav ing the surrounding skin In a healthy normal condition. This, together with the fact that Ice-Mint overcomes such affections as sore, tired, aching, puffed or burn ing feet and makes them cool, easy and comfortable. Is probably respon sible for the hearty endorsement given It by druggists. To rid one's feet of every hard corn, soft corn, corn between the toes or painful callouses In such a pleasant and safe way. makes it seem the height of folly for anyone to pare a corn and people are warned to stop it, FREE ROBERT MOORE The 16-year old "Boy Wonder" WILL GIVE Imagine seeing an exhibition and receiving instructions on this fascinating game by one of the world's leading experts.
