GET RID OF HUMORS
AND AVOID DISEASE
OF DEMOCRATS IN
Must .ill the oliler inhabitants of fa
lorn will rci-all Hint when James Mott
(uinler whose direction the Social Ser
vice Center of the Commercial club is
to stage "The Kortiine Hunter ") was
a child, he had ipiit.e a reputation as a
"boy orator." He used to "speak
pieces" .t church socials, and lodge en
tertainments, and all snch (daces where
they stand for that sort of thins, and
in the first two of Bryan's series of
presidential campaigns .lames was fea
tured as .1 headiiner, traveling round
about the state with a gang of grown
ups, imported Pi to I spell -binders. No
wonder he tuned out to bo an actor.
And what has all tins to do with
Pr. W. S. Mott.' Nothing, except that
: it wasthc doctor who put .lames up to
jit. Ho not only put him up to it, but
1 he taught him how to do it. And so,
'when the oast of The Fortune Hunter

land wished it on his father.
The role in which Pr. Mott will np
ipenr is that of "Hlinkey" Pockwood,
1 the village banker. Jt you nave seen,
I "The fortune Hunter" you will agree
I that "Hlinkey" is perhaps the most
i unique comedy creation in the whole
Irmge of drama. He is a vidian, but a
villian whose every speech and action
I calls for a burst of laughter. He is the
minnest, and at the same time oun ot
jtiie funniest characters in the piny.
Now to get away with .1 part like that
j requires sonio acting, and as an actor,
I Pr. Mott is right anion); those present.
1 He plays "Blinkey" Poekwood as
, though his regular business was nink
i ing people laugh instead of unking
them well. As a matter of fact, his

Jerangements that affect the whole

' For forty years Hood's Snrsararilla
has been more successful than any ,
other medicine in expelling humors and
removing their inward and outward ef- j
fects. It is distinguished. for its thor-

A MINISTER'S VIEWS

In Salem thero is a minister of the
gospel, Rev. Richard K. Tischer, who
takes an unusual view, for a minister
of toe amusement of tho young. He
has written a letter to The Capital
i amateur acting he has ever seen, while
judged even by the stritest prolession.il
standard his work is little short of
marvelous. He fits the character so
perfectly that your first impression
will be that it must have been written
to order for him. It is a safe predic
tion that Uev. Tischer 's performance
of Sam Graham will be one of the
most talked-of events in the history of
local theatricals.

Willows, Cal., Jan. 31. Floods that

could have my w.ty, as a minister, I
would provide my church with a so

both boys and girls, and with a gym

tinues by saying ho would arrange,
under proper supervision, dinning
parties and other gatherings, where
the young could mingle and indulge
their naturnl tastes for sociul pleasures.
He pertinently asks why or wherein
dancing is any more immoral than
