The nugget was taken to a Jeweler,

In Its craw which only goes to show
that Klamath "chickens" also have

(Klamath Representative at the Ex
position) OREGON BUILDINO, Exposition
Grounds, July 14 If Klamath county
people could see the Intense Interest
motion pictures are receiving at this
great world's fair, they would make
haste to accept the offer of tbe recla
mation service for the filming of Cra
ter Lake, Klamath Falls and Merrill,
tho sawmllllng, stockraislng and
farming, and other industries of the
county. Motion pictures attract as
much attention from homeseekera a

more for In this way the people
know- they ore actually seeing the
activities of the section portrayed.
In all of the Urge exhibit palaces
motion picture ahows are maintained
by the nation's leading manufactur

shown, and these are explained by
lecturers. Every theater is crowded
the greater part of the time, and in
terest manifested causes people to
look up the various booths to obtain
Information as to where the partlcu
lar product might be purchased for
home use.
Tbe same Is tbe case where pictures
of a section are shown. Immediately
after tho exhibition there Is a rush of
people to tho booth of that section, to
ask the representative about tbe coun-
try, opportunities In this or that line,
and to secure booklets. This I have'
found to be tbe case not only In the!
Oregon building, but in every build-
Ing where such pictures are shown.
Interest in sections included In rec-
lamatlon projects Is greater than
Klamath people Imagine, and the rec-
Iamatlon service section in the Liberal'. "We reported to the oflclals at
