"The Evil Eye" at

A certain young lady aspiring to be
a motion picture actress had her ambi
tions nipped in the bud during the
taking of the scenes of "The F.vil
Eye," the thrilling Lasky production
which will be seen at Ye Liberty to
day, tomorrow and Thursday with the
ever popular star, Blanche Sweet, in
the stellar role. The young woman had
pleaded with Miss Sweet for a long
time to be given an opportunity to ap
pear in a scene. Finally Miss Sweet se
cured director George II. Melford's
permision for her to appear as one of
the mob of superstitious Mexicans. She
was called to the studio at seven one
morning, traveled fifteen miles over
rough roads in a sight seeing truck,
sat around in the hot sun until four in
the afternoon when she was put to
work, and arrived back at the studio
at eight that night; Since thpt one
strenuous day, Miss Sweet has not seen
the young lady, nor has she been dis
covered around any of the other stu
dios. It is a Paramount picture.
More Oranges in the City
Than Ever Before
Saturday Is Orange Day
There arc more California oranges
Salem today than ever before in
historv. Immense shipments by fast
freicht have been coming in ror tnc
past week to supply, the big demand
by local merchants in preparation for
National Orange Day, which, this year,
falls on Saturday, March 10th. Fruit
dealers say that there will bo more
oranges bought ana eaten during rne
next few days than, during any similar
period preceding the orange days of
past years.
Reports from California indicate
that the same condition is true through
out the country. This great annual
fruit festivnl nationally inaugurated a
few years ago has grown to such pro
portions that in tho California groves,
profesional orangeTpicking gangs have
been kept tremendously busy for the
past week taking the fruit from the
trees fast enough to supply all markets.
Trainload after trainload has left the
Golden Slate already, and they are still
coming.
Last year at Orange Day, Mayor
Thompson of Chicago issued a procla
mation designating tne day as one on
which to eat oranges freely and be
thankful for the low price aiid delc
ious quality of this healthful fruit. It
is exnected that a number of city may
ors will follow Chicago's example this
year, and make the duy one or semi
official observance. This recognition is
given solely on the basis of the bene
ficial onal'ities of oranges and their
widespread distribution within reach
of nennlfl everywhere at prices that
permit all to enjoy , them.
Orange Day comes at the height of
the. navel oranee season, and the crop
this year is of the largest and best in
.years. Many local fruit dealers report
that thev have sold more boxes ana
half boxes of oranges this year than
they sold in dozen and half dozen lots
ten years ago.
Between now and Orango Day watch
the front windows of the stores where
oranges are sold. There will bo consid-J
erable competition locally in the effort
to produce the most attractive and in
teresting window display for Orange
Day.
