The Big Lessons OF Washtngton's

80 II seems to me thar one OF
the biggest and best lessons that we
can learn from Washington's life is
the ! Importance of standing firmly
by our honest beliefs.
Not only throughout the war but
during the years chat Washington
served as President, he was called
upon almost daily TO decide between
looking back and being bound by the
past. and looking ahead and being
bound by what he believed was
right. think II we apply this lesson
from Washington's life TO our every
day affairs now, It will help us more
to meet our present problems than
Il would merely 10 quote what
Washington said more than a hun.

DO you WANT A LOCAL PICTURE
SHOW?
The Answer L. YOURS.

The local picture theatre has en-
deavored TO give its patrons the very
best possible productions at all times,
and an investigation win prove that
this community is presented with a.
good and in most cases better than
are shown in any other town Of like
size. Yet within the past three months
our patronage has gradually slipped
from Us. Why, we do not know, and
hope that it is not from any fault of
ours. II it is we wish to know it in
order that the fault may be i'm
mediately corrected. We do however
believe that the reason is simply lack
Of interest on the part Of the public
towards q picture show. You really
want q show and We know it, yet
do you expect rs TO be able to run
steadily along and you 60 once in q
LONG while, thinking that the other
fellow will keep us running? Well we
cannot live on that.
We hear on some sides I'VE CAN'T
AFFORD IT." There Is not . family
that such an expense actually applies
to, for all have some form Of pleas
ure and don't fool yourself into be-
lieving that whatever that pleasure
may b that it does not COST.
We have arranged for several
SUPER-PRODUCTONS which will
be presented within the next sixty
days, these we are going TO present
to you at . very slishtly increased
admission price and we ask that they
along with our regular TUESDAY
and FRIDAY presentations be better
patronized.
