Evelyn Brings Horse Laughs In
First Star Role

Evelyn Brings Horse Laughs In
First Star Role
"The Cinderella Horse" of Hol-
lywood makes her bow!
Robert Woolsey, starring in
Radio Pictures comedy, Every
things Rosie" at the Oxford Thea
tire Friday and Saturday, may be
the funniest man in the world to
theatregoers, but to Evelyn he's a
Prince Charming.
Wesley wanteda horse like Eve
lyn for part in his picture, and
it was inevitable, perhaps, that two
such consummate artists should
meet.
Woolsey saw Evelyn in the ut
most Of her shame-dragging a
junk wagon, her old head bowed,
her remnant Of tail dropping.
There was no romantic foolish
ness. Nothing was said about soul
calling to soul. Woolsey got Eve
lyn and the junk man got new
horse.
Weakened though she was by pri-
walton, Evelyn's performance
marked her as f1lmdom's own. Now
she is under contract to a concern
which provides acing animals for
the movies.
Woolsey says that Evelyn has
an intelligent sense Of comedy and
real equine instinct for drama.
From pulling junk wagon, Eve
lyn has sprung to overnight fame
on the screen.

Norh Fork Couple Married Fifty
Years


Norh Fork Couple Married Fifty
Years
Mr.. and Mrs. T. e. Thompson,
long time residents of North Fork,
celebrated their golden wedding
anniversary Sunday, July IL. The
occasion was one in which their
large circle of friends was interest
ed and several hundred people
honored the couple by being pre-
sent at the anniversary event.
The celebration activities started
Immediately after the services in
Big Grove church with a dinner
served in the church basement, at
which Mr.. and Mrs. Thompson and
their family were seated at the
complimentary table, appropriately
decorated for the occasion.
Following the dinner the ami
versary party repaired to the home
of Mr.. and Mrs. Thompson, where
an out-of-door program was car
ried out. Mr.. Romness of Belgrade
sang two solos, and Viola Kjeldahl
entertained with an accordian sell
ection, after which Rev. Struxness
made a short talk in which he ex-
tended, on behalf of himself and
the assembled friends, congratula-
tons to Mr.. and Mrs. Thompson on
their long and successful married
life, as well as good wishes for
continued happiness. Short talks
were also made by John BONNER
and Gust Levorson. Mrs. Romness
favored the group with another
vocal selection in conclusion.
Helmer Thompson, speaking for
his parents thanked the assemb-
lage for the honor shown them,
as well as for the purse of more
than 500 which was presented Mr..
and Mrs. Thompson as a token of
goodwill and friendship.
Mr. and Mrs. Thompson are both
natives of Hallingdahl, Noraway,
but cine to this country in their
childhood, having been residents of
North Fork ever since. An unusual
occurrance in connection with
their family is the fact that every
one of their ten children are also
located in the same community in
which Mr.. and Mrs. Thimpson
have spent their lives, with the
possible exception of Helmer
Thompson, who is a manual train
ing teacher in the schools at
Staples, but who spends his vacation
period here cultivating a piece of
land which he and his wife own in
North Fork township.
The ten surviving daughters and
son, all of whom were with their
parents on this festive occasion,
are Mrs. Henry Halverson, Mrs.
Herman Torgerson, Mrs. Ray

Last Thursday evening Sank
Centre was defeated by the Broot-

one. For six innings it was a pitch
er's battle, with Bud Lewis on the
mound for Sank Centre having the
best of the argument. Bud allowed
only three hits during the entire
game and he struck out eleven
men.
Both teams went scoreless until
the sixth inning, when the Brooten
team received two runs. Arenson,
first man up for the visitors struck
out, Nugent was safe at first on a
passed ball, he stole second;
Grundseth got free pass to first;
Nelson struck out, which should
have been the third strike out to
retire the side without a score.
Rengel, the pitcher, came through
with hit and scord both men.
Sank Centre received its lone

Outdoors
Birds for Hunters, Money for
FarrnarS in Gapoo pro0vop,

Hailed as one of the most prac-
teal methods of increasing game
bird production, bringing farmers
and sportsmen together, and reim-
bursting the farmers for raising
quail and pheasants on their lands,
the Ager script plan now being
considered by Nebraska landown-
ers, hunters and legislators may be
the answer to how to get more
game birds, says the Izaak Walton
League in recent bulletin on this
project. The plan which was drawn
up by Chester E. Ager, widely
known conservationist and outdoors
man, and sponsored by the Nebras-
ka Division of the Izaak Walton
League is attracting wide attention.
Briefly, the Ager script plan
answers these questions: when to
shoot, how to get birds and how
to pay for them. AS approved by
thousands of sportsmen and farm
ers it contains these important pro-
visions:
1t provides that the state game
commission shall issue books of
hunters script" or coupons. Each
coupon will have a certain none
tary value when redeemed by the
game department. The farmer who
opens his land to hunters is entitl-
ed to receive the value of one cou-
pom for every game bird taken by
a hunter. Value now being consid-
cred is 50 cents). Hunters leave
their script book with the farmer
before they start hunting. No farm
er has to open his land to hunting
If he does not wish to. Nor does
he have to take money for shooting
privileges. He can let friends hunt
without an exchange of coupons.
Sportsmen, conservationists and
farmers are enthusiastic about this
working arrangement which vests
the title to game birds in the peo-
pie of the state and prohibits di-
rect marketing of birds, yet pro-
vides hunting for licensed sports
men and compensation for the
landowner who spends time and
money to grow game birds.

Robert Ames Has Notable Film
Success


One of Robert Ames' greatest as
sets on both the stage and screen
has been that he doesn't look like
an actor. Upon meeting him or
seeing him one is invariably i'm
pressed with the thought that he
looks like "a nice fellow" And
that personality has been injected,
probably unknowingly, into all of
his stage and screen roles.
J.. Ames comes from old New Eng
land stock, having been born in
Hartford, Connecticut. His father,
an insurance man, saw that Bob re-
ceived a good education in the
Hartford public schools then let
him follow his own desires. He
managed to work himself in as a
"bit" player in a Hartford stock
company. There Henry Miller,
through a mutual friend, became in.
terested in him. His New York
stage successes include "The Hero,
'Tcebound," mice People" and
"Seed of the Brute"
At the pinnacle Of his Broadway
| success, sickness drove him from
the stage for year. In 1928 he
| went to Hollywood. He appeared
in three DeMille pictures and Their
in one with Pola Negri. His most
sensational screen success came
with his appearance with Gloria
Swanson in = 1.-THE Trespasser,'
which was followed by Holiday
with Ann Harding and Confession
under the direction of Lionel Bar.

AIgae Are Beneficial-When You
Can't See Them

Sentinels are standing guard over
several Iowa lakes to watch for a
plant which, singly, cannot be seen
with the naked eye, says a bulletin
of the American Game Association.
The plants are algae, which furnish
fish with food as long as the growth
is not too numerous, but which are
considered harmful when they ap-
pear as green scum on the water.
The scum is disagreable when de-
caying, and Iowa officials have sta
toned the sentinels to detect an ex-
cess of alage in time to treat af-
fected waters.
