The officers of the state legionaires have sent a vehement protest to Washington against the releage and Secretary of War Baker's friendliness to such as the anti-American secretary of the Minnesota Communist party, and there is nothing to explain -on the part of the secretary. ‘And it is said that an investiga- tion is to be made of the secretary’s past actions as a friend of the radicals. But the war department released a horde of -conscientious objectors from internment after demonstrated its friendliness by their being paid hundreds of dollars each as compensation for the inconvenience caused by the war order.

General Leonard Wood seems to be the favorite candidate for the republican party at the national convention in Chicago, next June 8, and there also seems to be an increase in his sup- port in many states.

NEWS OF THE THEATERS FINE WARWICK PICTURE. Screen lovers who enjoy an excit- story of love and aGventure superbly enacted will welcome Robert War- wick at the Elko theatre on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, in “Told in the Hills,” his latest Paramount-Art- craft photoplay. It is a big story of the great outdoors and provides Ma- jor Warwick with a rugged, heroic role that ideally suits his personality. A trio of well known leading women —Ann Little, Wanda Hawley and Ei- leen Percy—support the star. The sacrifice of ‘‘Genesee” Jack Stuart, played by Major Warwick, and his adventyres in the mountains of Montana, where he is a scout and prospector, form the basis of the pow- erful story. Added attractions are new GOrches- tra selections Sunday evening, and Mack Senmnett's newest comeay, “A Lacys Tailor.” SUNDAY FEATURE. Oiive Thomas, the charming and vivacious Selznick star, will be seen in the first of her series of Selznick pictures, “Upstairs and Down,” at the Rex Sunday and Monday,as a de- lighttul little ‘“baby vamp.” No man misses her flirtatious eye and each falls a victim to her entrancing smiles. To her, man is life and flirt- ations food. It makes no difference who the man is, as long as he is will- ing to fall a victim to her charms. She loves them all—fat, lean, tall and short. She is a harmless little body, but a mischievous one. She is happiest when she is busy getting in or out of some scrape. She’s a game little per- son, for no matter how big the risk, she’ll take it, if there's any fun in it. Also William Fox's around the world “News Features.” A PLAY WITH A PURPOSE. ‘William S. Hart’s photoplay of the West, ‘“Riddle Gawne,” which is to be the main attraction at the Grand tomorrow, Sunday only, is a strong photoplay with a purpose— that of proving that hatred and re- venge are after all, subservient to love and honor. Gawne is a power- ful character creation which is des- tined to rank as one cf Mr. Hart’s finest screen portraits, as proven by this return engagement. *“Chasing Rainbeaux’—two part “Smiling Bill” Parsons comedy will also be shown at the Crand Sunday matinee and evening. MIX IN AUTO WRECK. The biggest, most-daring auto race ever filmed for a motion picture—a real race over the course at Santa Monica, California—is shown in Fom Mix's new Fox photoplay, ‘“The Speed |- Maniae,” with Mix himself driving the car that is wrecked in the con- test. The picture is to be shown at the Rex theatre last time tonight. Thousands of people were lined up alang the course to watch this race. They did not know that the steering knuckle .on the car that Mix drove had been weakened, and never dreamed that the star was asking neck-breaking chances. When his car turned a complete somersault and he was thrown out on the road a cry went up from a thousand throats, ‘“He's killed!” Another of the Universal series featuring ‘“Jim” Corbett in “The Mid- night Man,” will be shown. PATCHING UP QUARRELS. There are many ways of patching up a lover’s quarrel, but one of the most unique schemes for accomplish- ing the desiréd result is shown in ““Rose o’ the River” the new Para- mount picture starring Lila Lee, which is on view with successful re- sults at the Elko theatre last times tonight. . , A two part “Big V'" comedy also appears in the Elko last times to- night. COMING NEXT WEEK—REX. William Farnum in the Rain Bow Trail, sequel to the ‘“‘Riders of the Purple Sage.” “Back to God’s Country,” starring Nell Shipman and a selected cast.

Two popular . stars of the screen will be seen at the Grand theatre to- night. Douglas‘Fairbanks again ap- pears, tonight 6nly, in his remarkab- 1y entertaining Artcraft picture, ‘“Mr. Fix-it,” and the rotund ‘“Smiling Bill” Parsons is to be seen in ‘‘Chas- ing Rainbeaux,” two part comedy.

Bob Trimball says that the chief uttered something that sounded like a gulp and ran down the back street with the midget in his hands two blocks to the home of Dr. George L. Tobey. Doctor Tobey gave the little thing a couple of slaps and turned it over once or twice.

He only asked me to marry him.”—Life, - Laying ,Out Grounds. When laying out grounds, planting plans should be made first showing the location of every tree and shrub on the place. Decide whether the method of planting is to be formal or natural. In the city or town lots where space is limited the formal plan is per- haps the best, while with the large suburban homes and country places there is a splendid opportunity for the development of the natural style. Where the area is large it is possible to have a small body of water, groves of trees, and large groups of shrubbery. For small lots, where more care can be given to the plants, an elaborate plan may be advisable. In some cases home makers are able to devote a great deal of time to the upkeep of the landscape. Some trim their hedges in such shapes and fashions that green statues of all the animals and fowls of the barnyard are left posing on the lawn. Many ads appear in the classified column of the Pioneer q which are signed similar to this: “J.

Only I'd dig and dig quick.” Police Chief Magee pondered over this mysterious communication, It worried him. He didn't want to make a fool of himself. Finally, at 4 o’clock in the afternoon, he summoned Patrol- man Robert Trimball and got a shovel. He made a qufet entrance which is occupied by a family named v spaded earth.
