GETS TWO TEARS irt . M MUKIITV As a. whirlwind horseman nml n man who 'rides Into n tonso Bcono at tho proper tlmo, Duck Jones, tho popular Fox star, Is ono ot tho most thrilling figures on tho screen. He docs 'fomb ltvoly work In "Sunset Spue,"". which will bo shown for tho first tlmo tonight nt tho Llborty theater work which moro than onco causes tho spectators to gasp In astonishment. Tho story of "Sun set Sprnguo" had somo work cut out for Jones. It required a superb horseman a man with nervo and n man who nover gives up In a fight, ovon though wounded to mako tho picture convincing. Dut Jones sails through It in flno fashion, aided by Miss Patsoy Do Forest who Is both clover and plucky. Henry J. Hobort makes a good villain, as usual, and Edwin Booth Tilton and Noblo John son contrlbuto somo flno character work. Lives Micro a man with soul so dead who never to hlmsolf has said "I wish I woro a kid agaln"T Espe cially when ho thinks of his first elrcus. There are only a tow Joys that enter ono's llfctlrao, and not tho least of theso is a boy's first visit to a .circus. For that reason moro than usual interest attaches to tho coming of "Pink Tights," a romance ot tho big show, written by J. U. Glosy, adapted for tho scrcon by Philip nurn, produced by Uni versal, directed by Reeves Eaaon, prcsontod by a splendid cast headed toy 0 ladys , Walton and Jack Perrln and announced for next Friday at tho Llborty theater.

During ono ot theso sprees, ho moots nnd quarrels with a young French engineer whom ho chances to moot in a cheap saloon. A reconcili ation follows and tho two "bunk" for tho night In a cheap lodging house. In tho morning thoy resort to digging ditches tor breakfast money. "French)." as MncNafr dubs his nowly acquired friend, is una waro of his new companion's Identity until ono ot MacN'elr's men finds him In tho ditch and urges him to return to his desk. Bowlldorcd nnd amazed at tho suddon chango in events, "Fronchy" follows hlsc erstwhile "companion In mtsory." How tho beautiful girl comes lntb "Frenchy's" llfo and his subsequent return to his native land at tho call to arms, leaving his bothrothed nlouo and his return after having beon an nounced dead on the fiold ot battle: his denouncement of "She man who has sacrificed his all to protect his friend's wtfo and child; Abo "battlo ot hoarts," proving a' "friond In need Is a friend Indeed," makes this latost Hobart Bosworth production "His Own Law" ono ot tho supromo pic tures of tho year.

The team work and ef ficiency displayed In tho salo of war stamps and llborty bonds, In cultl- eating war gardens and In the won derful mannor in -which a groat army was equipped and transported over seas all go to show that what tho pooplo fully detormlno to do thoy do. If this samo spirit of, energy and determination could bo quickened Into actlro and unltod warfare to overcome tho ravagos of tho fire fiend It would bo but a short time before the appalling annual tiro waste of tho nation would bo eliminated and be come a thing of tho past, and tho high f:ost of living bo thoroby con siderably roducod. This series ot articles Is written, and an intonslvo tiro prevention cam- hpalgn Is about to bo Inaugurated In Klamath Falls In tho hope, first, ot demonstrating that tiro loss is a real loss a community loss in which ovory property ownor and taxpayer of tho city Is intorestod, and secondly, ot arousing our citizens to a deter mined and united offort In which ovory householder and buelness man shall Join to so remove tiro hazaards thoro by lowor danger and occurence of fires, as to placo Klamath Falls In tho very front rank of tho nation as bolng freo from prevcntablo tiros and a modol and standard up to which ovory other city of tho union may measure. Ordinary fires and general con flagrations differ only In quantity or size, the smallest fire imaginable containing the possibilities of a con flagration serious enough to wipe out an entire city. Fire causes may be considered as of two classes, tho tirst wherein fire of any naturo whatever is directly employed and for whatever purpose, and secondly, thoso materials which directly contribute to tho spread of tiro or which have such an affinity for It as to constltuto a tiro hazard. The first class speaks for Itself. Flro Is always dangerous and contains great possibilities ot Injury and des truction. It makes nov difference whether it is a seemingly dead spark In the head ot a match or in appar ently cold ashes or the small flame at tho end ot a cigar or cigarette or candlo, or In a stovo or furnaco or lamp whorover flro Is, however small tho spark or flamo, thoro Is a dangor to bo watched and safeguard ed against. Tho second class ot flro dangers Is comprised ot substancos and ma terials of such an easily Inflaramablo naturo as that tho smallest spark may sot thorn on tiro. Theso consist of piles of rubbish and Utter, dried grass and undergrowth, greasy and oily rags and polishing cloths lying promiscuously around, drying cloth es too near an open flamo or hang ing old clothes in tho closot without removing grenso spots or paint from them, from which spontaneous com bustion is apt to bo genoratod. Llkowlso In this class aro to bo Included tho moans by which tiro os capos or through which It passes, such as stovepipes, chimneys, flues, open flro grates, etc. Rusted or loose ly hung stovoplpos, dofcctlvo or un clean flues and chimneys aro among tho most prolific ot all tiro causes, so much so that tho saying has bo como qulto common among flro pro ventlonlstB that It a chimney Is not cloanod at least once a yoar the building is In danger ot catching on flro. Tho greatost nnd most deplorable causo of fires Is carelessness. Not only a slnglo artlclo but an entlro volumo could easily bo written on this ono topic nlono. It Is perhaps not overstepping tho mark to say that 90 fires out ot every 100 aro causod by somo form of carelessness or for gotfulness. This statement may bo oaslly vorlflod If the readers ot this article will take the trouble to glanco over tho causos of fires as roportod from' tlmo to tlmo by the chief of tho flro department to tho city coun cil. Tho following constitute the moro conimon flro causes and fire haz ards: Unclean or defoctivo chimneys and flues, pllos ot litter and rubbish al lowed to accumulate, carolossness on the part of smokors, carolossness In hnndling matches or allowing chil dren to play with matches, wood boxes too near tho stovo or the Btovo placed too near wooden partitions or not properly protected from the floor, quickening a flro with coal oil,1 hanging electric cords so that they como in contact with" metal, overloading or overheating stoves, carolossness in tho use ot gasoline, placing ashes, either hot or cold, In wooden, rocoptaclos Instead ot a metal container, carelessness In for gott'lng to turn oft or disconnect the current when through with an elec tric pressing iron or other electrical wiring and gas, appliances, greasy and oily rags auoweq to io arouna ana generatefipanjtanoous combustion in stead of being placed In an empty lard can or other metal receptacle, and a thousand other acts of care lessness, too numerous to mention,. Pure Water Is Health Service Campaign Result WASHINGTON. Jan. 20. Within tho last twelve months tho dangor to railway trnvolors of Infoctlon with typhoid fovor, dysontory and othor wntor-borno diseases has boon ro ducod to n minimum throughout tho greater part ot tho country by tho co-oporntlon of tho United Stntos public lionlth sorvlco with tho differ ent stato hoards ot health In the testing of tho water used on railway trains for drinking nnd cooking And, within tho next fow months, similar protection will bo afforded to passongors on river nnd lako stonmors nnd to ocean steamships sailing from American ports. This will tend to end tho oovoro out breaks ot typhoid fovor that havo from tlmo to tlmo beon traced to ships (especially to excursion boats) as well as to tho probably moro numerous but far loss easily traced Illnesses ot rnilway travolors from similar pollution. "Tho work," said Burgeon Qon- ornl Cummlng ot tho Unltod States health sorvlco, "was really begun In Juno of laBt year, whon at tho con vention ot stato and territorial health oftlcors, In session at Wash ington, D.

"Work has slnco boon dono In nearly half tho states ot tho Union, In which many sanitary di visions woro lacking. In noarly all of theso such bodies havo boon or nro now bolng organized; and In nbout half ot them survoys havo beon mado ot many or all Important water supplies, most ot which havo been found nafo for uso on trains.
