the Texas Theatre here.
As convict Verne Andre, des-
perado who escapes a South
American penal colony, Gable
reasserts his superiority as an
actor as well as a personality,
for his conception of the role
carries all the true shading of
Block, Mr. Spacek, and Clar-
ence Schier.
YOUR DAY
Tonight as you sit facing the
setting sun
You now realize that one chap-
ter in your life is done.
As memories of your school
life drift sadly away
Your thoughts are not of the
past year,
But of tomorrow—your day.
Your day when up life’s steep
path you stride,
A path that is long and weary
and wide.
A path along which many ob-
stacles will stand in your
way,
But you need never fear them
if you make tomorrow your
day.
And as higher upward you go,
Let courage, determination and
kindness
Be your army to conquer fail-
ure—your foe.
Let them always stand beside
“Dear God, today belonged to
someone else, let tomorrow
be my day”---
And, as at last before your
throne of success you stand,

cal film, “Little Old New
York.” Directly after the show
the class met at Mrs. Engelke’s .
home where she had planned a
weiner roast for them. Chairs
were provided on the lighted
lawn. Mr. Engelke roasted the
weiners over a grate while Mrs.
Engelke was assisted with the
buns by Mrs. Luna Engelking,
Miss Smith, and Miss Blanche
Koy. The Seniors enjoyed this
treat greatly and ate hot dogs
and drank punch to their
hearts’ content.
OUTING AT
GALVESTON ENJOYED
Tuesday, May 21, Mr. Madden
drove the school bus for the
Seniors and their sponsor to
Galveston. The bus left at twen-
ty minutes to seven o’clock in
good time. It was parked on
the sea wall near Murdock’s
until about three o’clock in the
evening when a sightseeting
trip was planned. A group of
Seniors enjoyed playing in the
Gulf on water mattresses for
an hour or two. Although there
was no sun in the morning, all
the swimmers were either
burned by the sun or reddened.
After eating, most of the group
met at the playground and tried
all the fun-making machines.

class was joined by Mr. Spacek

A table of 42 was started while
the others sat and talked.
About half the group made an
unsuccessful attempt to sleep
later in the night, but thanks
to the ever alertness of the
other half, no one can say he
slept over one hour.

from 12 to 15 years. He will
discuss any subject pertaining
to forestry problems that you
may have with the uses of your
home grown timber. The dem-
onstrations will begin at 9:00
a.m. both mornings. The ten-
tative program is: from 9:00
to 10:00 a.m. post treatment
with zinc chloride. From 10:00
to 11:00 a.m. tour of the woods
to estimate timber and discuss ;
uses of timber for the farm
and industry, improvement for
better timber production, woods
pasture and wild life. From
11:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon, es-
timating the scale of the tree,
cutting down the tree, scaling
the log, and carting the log to
the mill for sewing. From 12:00
to 1:00 p.m. lunch. (Each visi-
tor bring his own lunch.)
With the supply of native
timber in Austin County every
one should be familiar with the
proper ways to utilize this tim-
ber on their farm to the best
advantage. Mr. Simmons will
be glad to assist and discuss
any subject that you may have
during the afternoon and give
you more instructions and prac-
tice in post treatment and tim-
ber utilization. Everyone is in-
vited to attend this demonstra-
tion. Tell your friends and
neighbors.

an understanding artist. As the
cynical cafe entertainer, Julie,
who is finally willing to sacri-
fice herself because she could
not accomplish the reform she
longed for in Verne’s charac-
ter, Joan Crawford reestablish-
es the standing as a dramatic
actress which was conceded her
for her work in “The Women.”
A gallery of impeccable char-
acterizations surrounds the
starring roles in this story of
seven men and a girl who set
out through the jungle and
then by ship to seek a haven,
only to find that sanctuary has
spiritual implications, too. Ian
Hunter, as Cambreau, the mys-
terious stranger with a bible,
around whom revolve the fates
of all the others, brings deep
sincerity and strength to pos-
sibly the most difficult role of
all. Peter Lorre, as the despic-
able libere, Monsieur Pig, is
both loathsome and pitiable.
Paul Lukas as Hessler, the
wife-murderer, lends the part a
quietly demoniacal quality. Al-
bert Dekker as the Cockney
safe-cracker, Moll, is brute
strength incarnate. J .Edward
Bromberg and Eduardo Cian-
nelli as the near-mad Flaubert
and Telez, and John Arledge as
the weakling, Dufond, complete
the gallery of desperadoes with
unerring delineations.

lege, will be in charge of the

crease the life of these posts
