AT DITTMAN


"PlaStered in Paris" the Fox
comedy featuring Sammy Cohen, is
one Of the funniest seen here this
season. 1t is being shown at the
Dittmann theater for the last time
today.
Cohen, remembered as the anus
ing little Hebrew doughboy of
What Price Glory?" and THE Cav
Retreat" is again seen in the role
of a soldier, but only for a few
moments, as most of the film is
taken up with his adventures in
Paris, along with a war buddy,
where they go in search of a cure
for Sammy's kleptomania (the re-
suit of being shell shocked and a
cute little French girl that he had
left behind. Jack Pennick plays
the buddy and gets every bit Of
humor possible out of his role.
Prominent parts are also well
taken by Lola Salvi, Ivan Linow,
Albert Cont and Marion Byron.
"Plastered in Paris" is ideal
screen fare for those who wish to
a away the blues. Don't miss
it.

Willing to Pay Price

you can make yourself anything
you want to, If you want to bad
enough and are willing to pay the
Price. Your thoughts are things
that make YOU what you are. Your
dreams of today are the thoughts
of tomorrow, your thoughts of to-
morrow are the acts of next week
and the acts Of next week get to be
the habits which form your char
acter.
IF we don't like our conditions
as we find them we can change
them.
Years ago when just a lad. l
heard Elijah P. Brown, editor OF the
Rams Horn whose trite sayings were
read around the world. deliver a
lecture. I do not even remember
the subject, 1 scarcely remember
how he looked, but the story he
told of how he determined to be
somebody still rings in my ears"
Wright then told of Browns
success and urged the prisoners to
emulate his. To those who think
they haven't a chance, he pointed
out that the world is now filled with
opportunities of which Abraham
Lincoln never dreamed.
No Easy Way
'TThere is no open door to the
temple of success" he continued.
"He or she who enters there must
fashion his own key.
Within each one of your breasts
I am sure there is a longing to be
something-to do something worth
while-to be a success. But what is
success?
"a man once went out to seek
success. Day after day he toiled
along the crowded highway meeting
many upon the same quest. AT last,
wearied by his efforts, he deter
mined to leave the beaten path, and
seeing at his feet a beautiful
meadow on the other side of which
was thicket, he crossed the meadow
and entering the thicket lay down
in its shelter and was soon sleeping
soundly. In his dreams success
stood by his side and speaking,
said:
Not Crowded Ways
"'Seek me not upon the crowded
highways. for l seldom travel there,
but rather seek me in fair, fresh
fields, out upon the hillside, upon
the mountain top or upon the arid
desert plain, for I love to wander
there. I tread in trackleSs places
in painless forests. Oft 1 daily by
the little brooklet, as it winds its
way across the plain and merges
forever in then boundleSS main. How
often when alone with nature do
we realize the true deeper meanings
OF success.
IF you would go far on life's
pathway you must be alive. Are
you being hauled along by some
one else having the very power you
should have, but lack?
Awake! Kindle the fire of
knowledge. Develop the steam that
will enable you to do things. Don't
wait. Study seriously. Nothing but
your own weakness is strong enough
to hold you back"
At the close of the sermon Wright
sought to have the prisoners hold
UP their right hands in resolve to
do better on the new year.
Two sons and StepSon of the
speaker provided instrumental mu-
sic. Don Wright played the cornet,
Harold the violin and Brunson Mot
lev the piano.

Just about what is coming to us in

Superintendent A. F. Miles Of the
