| wish to convey through the col
'Fumns fHff yodf newspaper the assur-
anees of my sincere appreciation tC
those good friends who had a part in
the presentation of the beautiful low
ling cup to me as a tokenspf their good
will and affection. Not knowing the
names of the donors, | can only IN
this general way extend my heartfelt
thanks. This was one number on the
program regarding which | was not
consulted, and am wondering how
they managed to keep it from me.
Whatever service | have been able
to perform for our great Centennial
has been truly labor Of love for
Columbus, and if it has procured for
our city a little larger spot on the
map-if it has helped to attract the
favorable attention of some who had
in the past given us little thought
ifs it has been the means Of increasing
our own civic pride, shall feel that
cur efforts have not been altogether
in vain.
May those good friends whose af
lection accompanies the handsome
gift never have cause to regret the
confidence they have placed in me, and
at the celebration of our next Cen.
tennial may the chairman have the
support of as loyal and devoted CO.
workers as it has been my good for
tune TO possess.
Most sincerely,
r. +. JOHNSTON.

AN IMPRESSIVE REEL

Winston Churchilps novel THE In

shown on the screen at Fox's the first
three days of this week, is creating a
furore in the ranks of the movie fans
and seldom has a picture been shown
here that has attracted the favor
able comment that this one has. 1t
is a scorching expose of the hypocrisy
of certain wealthy classes who pose
as models of virtue and ardent church
workers. Since, in the story, the de-
nouncement comes from the pulpit,
IL carries more weight. Into this
story of sham and falseness is woven
a delightful love story. There is
sufficient viIlainy to hold interest and
there are several gripping scenes, one
of which is a killing. The Fox News.
a Chester Outing and a comedy reel
are also on the bill.
