rival in Honolulu . follows:
"We landed at 9 o'clock in the morn
ing. As I looked on the beautiful world,
it seemed like paradise. I was almost
dazed and wondered if it could be real.
All about wore beautiful green trees,
stately palms, brilliantly colored shrub
bery and flower laden vines. All was
flooded with sunshine and birds were
singing in the tree tops, it did not
seem possible that this could be part of
the ice boimd world I had left."
Miss Conover was greatly taken with
the young people with whom she is to
ork. f-he writes of them: "What a
fine lot of young people they are. There
are Hawaiian, Chinese, Japanese, Kor
eans and several other nationalities,
but as I watched thorn playing their
games, roasting wieners and mnking
candy, I thoeght they were much like
young people the world over. The
Hawaiian love to sing anil thev sing
well."
An Auto Ride.
Of her automobile trip around the is-1
land, she writes: "All day long it was
a panorama or mountains and sea and
sky, beautiful beyond the power of
words to describe. As we left the city
we drove along a road bordered with
many different kinds of beautiful and
interesting trees. The hnu tree was
pecially interesting with its branches
all tangled and intertwined, the tree
that Burroughs said is "the tree gone
mad." The mountains were never far
away, but all the time we were getting
higher and nearer to them until sudden
ly we rounded a enrve and found our
selves on the Jali a precipice. We look-
ed down 10,000 feet over the precipice

34 Bodies Recovered
Xew Albany, Ind., Mar. 24. Thirty
four bodies had been recovered early
today from the ruins of tho tornado
which struck the citv late yesterday
and the search was still under way.
Three hundred homes were destroyed
and 10(10 persons were without shelter.
The devastated district, including
about one third of tho city, is a half
mile wide, and two miles long.
Martial law was in effect. Two com
panies of the national guard ordered
out by the governor arrived early to
day. They had orders to shoot on Bight
in ease of looting. One other company
was on the wav. ,
lractically all of the homeless were
cared for during tho night. Fires broke
out frequently, one destroying three
houses.
Estimates placed the loss at $1,500,-
000.
Hospitals were crowded to overflow
ing with the injured who wero being
cared for by nurses and physicians
from Louisville.
Many of the injured were in a ser
ious condition and physicians stated
the death toll from those now in hos
pitals would reach fifteen.
Many bodies may still be buried in
the debris. No thorough search could
be made of the district during the
night. Estimates were that from ten
to thirty bodies were still to be found.
Dog and Baby Together
On account of the limited hospital
facilities, it was planned to transfer
many of the injured to Louisville dur
ing the day.
Eelief work was well nmler way to
day. Tho Indianapolis Bed Cross had
taken over the details. J. J. O'Connor,
director of the central division of the
Red Cross, arrived here early today to
make a survey of tho situation and ar
range to raise the needed funds. Many
cities have already offered aid and re
lief funds were being started.
The tornado came down on the city
from the northwest without warning.
It followed an afternoon of light shw
ers. The district of the city struck was
where the workingmen liven. Within a
few seconds the entire district was in
ruins.
" Wild scenes followed the sweep of
the storm. Women and children ran
through the streets searching for lost
members of the family, while men at
tempted to put out fires which broke
out, following the storm.
The body of Martha Stella Ehringer,
a two year old baby, wris found in a
creek, where it had been washed, with
her arms clasped around the body of
a dog. The baby and her pet went to
death together.
Mrs. Carolina Canter died at St. Ed
wards hospital with her children at her
bedside. Another child, Elizabeth, was
in an adjoining room suffering from
severe injuries and probably will not
recover.

A Production De Luxe
at the Oregon Tomorrow
Ethel Clayton shares with Tom Mim-c
tho stellar roles in the new Lubin six
reel feature "Dollars and the Woman"
from Albert Fayson Terhune's famous
story "Dollars and Cents," a most elab
orate photoplay production directed by
Joseph Kaufman.
At the Lubin studios tlio many
friends of Ethel Clayton call her the
"drawing-room actress" and an apt de
scription it is too, for Miss Clayton
gives to every play in which she is film
ed a charm of personality that is a re
flection of cultured tastes, wide expe
rience, and firm convictions that are ex
clusively her own. She joined the Lub
in players with a long record of stage
successes and in adapting her gifts to
the demands of the ncreen she had the
advantage of a facility of technic that
only comes through wide experience.
Miss Clayton is one of the most re
ticent players in the studio, and not
only tries to avoid interviews, but, begs
not to be quoted. Her theory is that
with her constant appearance before the
public, there can be little else to make
known. The camera catches unmistak
ably the charm of Miss Clayton's per-,
sonality, but there is a combiantioii of
tints and tones which it reduces to
mere black and white and one does not
get the rich shade of her auburn hair,
the intense whiteness of her complexion
and the charm of her blue eyes.
Miss Clayton has ye consistent hob
by books. In her apartment the book
cases completely encircle the library,
continue on, into and around the draw
ing room, on through a hallway, and on,
into and part way around her dressing
room. It is rare indeed to see Miss
Clayton without a book. When she mo
tors she has three or four books with
her; when she isn't working before the
camera she is tucked away either in her
dressing room or a comfortable corner
of. the dressing room reading. Ask her
what she likes and ske will tell you
"good books"; ask her what she con
siders good books, and she will tell you
"almost anything except fiction."
"Dollars and the Women" in which
Miss Clayton is afforded exceptional
opportunity for her rare talent will be
seen at the Oregon theatre Sunday, one
day only.
Hop Outlook Brighter;
Many Yards Plowed Up
It is reported that, representatives of
some eastern hop firms are advising
Oregon growers that the prospects for
better lion prices for next fall are
brighter. Growers who think for them

a belief, and say that the eastern deal-
