“Snares of Paris” is the alluring
title of a new William Fox release
that has been making a big hit and
now is announced to be shown at
the Gem Theatre next Saturday.
This photoplay is said to show the
beautiful star, Madiaine Traverse—
who is a favorite here—at her very
best; and that means very, very fine.
The plot indicates a brilliant picture
of social and political Paris, with a
view of the under world; the latter

The attorneys forming the Tilla-
maak Bar Association have sent a re­
quest to Attorney T. H. Goyne to run
for district attorney, the following
letter having been sent him.
i j T. H. Goyne, Tillamook Oregon.
Dear sir—The undersigned, mem­
bers of the Bar of this place, would
respectfully request that you be-
come a candidate again for the office
i of District Attorney, and would as-
sure you of our support oi you for
the position if you will accept.
We make this request because we
believe the interest of the public will
be served by your accepting the of­
fice again, and hope that you may
see your way clear to take the posi­
tion for another term.
Yours very truly,

It was Mr. Goyne’s intention not to
make the race for re-election, but
since receiving the above endorse­
ment of the Tillamook Bar Associa­
tion he has consented to do so. Owing
to the small salary, none of the
other attorneys of the city aspire to
the position,-and as Mt. Goyne has
given general satisfaction, not only
to the public, but to the other attor­
neys, he was the only suitable per­
son available for the position, is the
opinion of the members of the Tilla­
mook Bar Association.
“Secret
There are many tense situations in
the new Paramount Artcraft Special,
"Secret Service” directed by Hugh
Ford, with Major Robert Warwica in
the role created by the author, Wil­
liam Gillette, and which will be seen
at the Gem Theatre next Tuesday,
March 8.
Among these, perhaps the most
striking is that wherein the two
brothers Lewis and Henry Dumont,
meet in the Varney home, in Rich-
niond during the seige of that city by
the federal forces in the most stress-
ful period of the civil war.
Lewis is on secret service, arrang­
ing to send a message to the Confed­
erate commander which will result
in laying Richmond open to easy cap­
ture by the northern troops. Henry
gains the information he needs and
allows himself to be captured by the
rebels.
He escapes and gets to the Varney
home. The escape has been permit­
ted by a secret service man who sus­
pects the two are brothers and spies.
He thinks they will betray one an­
other. But they are too shrewd.
Henry wispers to Le\pis to shoot him.
He refuses. Henry shoots himself to
make it appear Lewis did so in cap­
turing him. Thus the plan is saved
but Henry pays the forfeit.
This is only one of many similar
situations which abound in this
striking drama. A wonderful cast has
been selected, the leading woman be­
ing Wanda Hawley.

D. D. West Heard From.
D. D. West, who recently moved
from this city ti National City, Calif,
from this county to National City,
Calif., writes:
I will write you a few lines telling
you about Southern California.
The climate where we live, near
the coast, is about an even tempera­
ture. We have had three heavy rains
since we have been here. All kinds
of flowers and shubbery bloom the
year round, also there are ripe, green
and blossoming oranges and lemons
the year round.. We are located on
the Sweetwater system, that fur­
nishes the water for the city of San
Diego, so we have an abundance of
water, for all purposes. We live two
miles from National City and 9 miles
from San Diego, and 20 miles from
Tijuana, on the Mexican border.
From where we live we have a beau­
tiful view of San Diego bay and the
pacific squadron of battle ships and
destroyers.
This is also a great country for
raising all kinds of vegetables and
small fruit and they also have some
dairy farms. I have a citrus grove of
7
acres of oranges and lemons. We
have picked 13 tons of oranges and
lemons since we have been here, and
soon will pick lemons again.
Lemons are picked once every six
weeks during the year. Oranges and
lemons at the present time are sell­
ing for $50 and $60 a ton. There ¡ b
a great difference between southern
California and Tillamook. The nights
here are cool enough, so you can
have a fire every evening. Orange
and lemon land sells from $1,000
to $2,000 per acre, according to lo­
cation. Hoping these few lines will
find you all well.
“The Warrens of Virginia" is a
Photoplay that Rouses Popu­
lar Interest.
I
------- o-------
Has the great war destroyed popu­
lar interest in the Rebellion which
fifty years ago started the world? Of
the vanishing army of boys in blue
who fougbt for the preservation of
the Union in 1861, the remaining
few doubtless will insist that lnteiest
in the Civil War never will die. It is
because of this fact doubtless, that
stage plays and photoplays having to
do with the Rebellion invariably at­
tract.
In its reissued from, "The War­
rens of Virginia” is even better than
the original and when it is presented
at the Gem Theatre next Friday,
March 5, its success will be no less
pronounced.
The story deals with a young man
from New York who loves a Virginia I
belle and whose romance Is inter­
rupted by the outbreak of the war.
The young man joins the Union forc­
es and later is captured and held as
a spy. When Agatha Warren, his
sweetheart, who loves him despite
the fact the he is her enemy, offers
him means of escaping his Impending
fate, he declines and is ultimately
saved and the two are reunited.
The picture Is filled with stirring
action, strong climaxes and thrilling
spectacles.

Probably it will come as a distinct
surprise to friends of Dorothy Gish
to learn that she is to some degree an
expert revolver shot. Confidentially,
it is 'no less a surprise to Dorothy
herself, and the manner in which
certain scenes of her latest Paia-
mount picture, "Nugget Nell," to be
shown at the Gem Theatre next Wed­
nesday, were made will be kept a
deep dark secret in the archives of
the Paramount producing staff.
When tile picture was begun, and
it was decided forty-fours would
play a prominent part in the picture,
Dorothy Gish began to wonder how
she would behave under fire.
1 was in France when the German
guns were throwing shells so close
we had to quit taking pictures,” she
said, "and I know just exactly what
1 uid at that time. But as a matter of
cold fact, 1 never fired a revolver in
my life. I did shoot a shotgun be­
longing to my cousin and it gave me
the nose bleed and bruised my cheek.
So director Clifton decided that the
brick wall in the back of the studio
should be set aside for purposes of
target practice.
Clara Kimball Here Sunday
"Shirley Kaye.”
iu
In "Shirley Kaye,” which will be
shown at the Gem Theatre next Sun­
day, Clara Kimball Young displays
her versatility by creating a role dif­
ferent from the persecuted women
she has portrayed so often in the past.
In this picture, from the successful
play of the same name, Miss Young
acts the role of Shirley, the vivacious
daughter of Edgerton Kaye, presi­
dent of the great Union Central R. It.
He holds his position through his
descent from "Pirate” Kaye, who
founded the line, rather than through
any executive ability of his own.
T. J. Magen, the brusque financier
from the west, ably delineated by
George Fawcett, has bought the
house next door to the Kaiyes; he
cares not at all for the society life of
the east, while his wife is worried by
her many servants, but his “flapper”
daughter yearns with all het heurt
to break into the society swim, where
Shirley Kaye reigns supreme, "T. J.
and John Rawson, his young UKHO-
date who incidentally hates all
women, especially Easterners- -sc­
cure a majority of the proxies oi
Union Central shareholders, and the
ousting of Edgerton Kays is a matter
of days.
With breaking heart, he tells his
daughter of the impending blow—-
she rises to the situation; and how
she plays the society game, combin­
ing it with high finance to save the
family fortunes, Is a stirring tale. At
the same time she finally wins the
love of John Rawson, which brings
into the story of American business
and social life an absorbing thread
of heart interest.
