voice and ability combined to win
fame. Prior to the time she made
her screen debut in The Love
Parade" with Maurice Chevalier,
people had seldom connected fine
voices with beauty, but they soon
found Jeanette had both.
Jeanette's early career was spent
on the legitimate stage after attend
ing a fashionable school for girls
near Philadelphia.
At the outset she dreamed of
entering grand opera. Never once
did film career enter her mind.
But now thoughts of grand opera
have been forgotten.

discussing grand opera. THAT kind
Of singing requires years Of inten-
sive study and is continual grind.

Home life is very important to
Jeanette right now. She is about
to marry Robert Ritchee, her bust
ness manager.
Jeanette's ambition is to make a
picture in which she doesn't sing
a note.

ginning to think the only way
can get by in pictures is on the
strength of my voice. she declares.
Il want to prove that I also can
act-just as well as I can sing. I'm
convinced Of it myself but I still
have to prove it to others"

Advices from st. Paul told of a
request by Great Northern Rail-
way, Northern Pacific and Chicago,
st. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha
that organized employees consider
! a voluntary wage cut of 10 per cert

In the belief that something fav-
orable would be done for the rail
roads, shorts covered their hold
ings. Before their buying set in
a long list had been carried to new
lows.

SALVATION ARMY
NEEDS SUPPLIES
FOR TRANSMITS

Contribution of beans, bread and
beef will be most welcome at the
Salvation Army where there is a
big demand for food for transients.
Grocery orders may be left at
local stores, food taken to Army
headquarters on Broadway or army
workers will be glad TO call for food
left at any place in town.
THE Salvation Army is doing a
wonderful work in feeding trans
tents but Capt. j. w. Myall cannot
carry on the work unless food is
provided by citizens of the town"
said w. w. McEuen, chairman of
the general relief committee.
Last Sunday the Salvation Army
served 173 meals. The relief ex-
pended here is emergency for trans
tents and not permenent. The Red
Cross chapter here informs me that
needy families in the city are be-
ing cared for satisfactorily and as
far as can be determined that phase
Of the work is in fairly good shape.
Therefore we must stand behind the
Salvation Army in the work that
organization is doing"
In discussing the unemployment
situation here, McEuen asked that
residents do not give money to
"panhandlers" on the streets as it
is better to send the men to head
quarters at 430- Main street. Those
in charge there will handle the Sit
uation capably and send the men
to the proper place to obtain neces-
sary relief.
THE money given panhandlers
feeds several men when the Sal
vation Army buys beans and bread
with it," continued McEuen.
Residents of the town are urged
to telephone IS when workmen are
needed for any task whatsoever.
The free employment agency has
a list of men who desire work of
any kind and the men will be dis
patched at short notice when the
calls come in.
