Return to Land Of Their Fathers

For lG1 years the Acadian people
have carried with them the memory Of
the fatcful August In 1855, which wit
messed the deportation of, the Acad-
ianS from the shores Of Minas Basin.
August lG. 1922. IN the village of Grand
Pre-, host Of Acudian descendants
gathered on the very site of the trag-
edy Of expulsion and took possession
Of their heritage--hiStoric ground on
which they c0nSecrated to the memory
Of their fathers the Acadnn Memorial
chapel. Exiled tor nearly 40 years,
their wanderinSs in strange, far-off vii
lases and cities, the race scattered to
The four corners Of the continent, 1t
seemed almost incredible that the
AcadianS should again be restored to
that fertile Gaspereau valley. cleared.
titled and enriched by the farms which
they had hGmestcaded in the early set

GUY BATES POST
WON'T FORSAKE STAGE
Will Alternate Between Screen and
Stage. Will Play Hamlet.

Although critics and public every
where have hailed with delight Guy
Bates Posts performance in 1.-The
Masquerader, the film version of
which is coming to the Reynolds
Monday, this distinguished actor
hopes to return to the stage, alter
mating his theatre and screen work.
POSTS particular ambition, cherished
for many years, is to play Hamlet.
Only his tremendous success in
Omar the Tentmaker" and the stage
version of "The Masquerader, which
have kept him occupied for the past
ten years, have interfered with the
fulfllment of this plan. His inten-
ton is to follow Hamlet with other
roles building up a
classy repertoire, since he has always
had strong impulse for this type of
drama. "The Masquerade" is
First National attraction and was
produced by Richard Walton Tully
and directed by James Young.

other leading stars and producers.
Says Young, "If l weren't tempera-
mental, I wouldn't be worth a boot.
And even this position is fine thing
for the driver of tractor plough;
creative work demands temperament.
