JACK OAKIE JUST
NATURALLY FUNNY

Lindbergh had just set the world
agog by flying the Atlantic. Jack
Oakie, then just a "hoofer" in a
Broadway show, had dreams OF
Hollywood. "Lindbergh took a
chance and made it-so will l." said
Oakie to some associates.
So he went to Hollywood. Moth
ing happened. For weeks and weeks
it was Just the same. but Jack
just smiled and waited.
One day, hunting a job at First
National studios, Oakie saw direct
or Wesley Ruggles on the opposite
side of the street. He rushed across
and greeted the director vocifer-
ously. a. though they we're old
time friends. Ruggles was surpris-
ed, mystified, even %perturbed. Oak
lie, who knew Ruggles only by sight,
had heard that he was about to
start a new picture. Ruggles prom
Used him three days work, which
were stretched into three weeks.
Eight months later, Oakie got
his second "break." 1t was a good
part in Clara Bows starring picture
1.-THE Fleets In" This led to a
Paramount contract, and a few
months later he was made a star.
In Dancers in the Dark" which
comes to the Liberty theatre Sun
day, Monday, Tuesday, Oakie is
c~o-starred with Miriam Hopkins,
William Collier Jr., and Eugene
Palette.
Jack Oakie off the screen is no
different from the Oakie seer and
heard upon it. He is out for the
laughs from morning to night ex-
cept when he is expected to be
funny. Then he closes up like a
clam, that is, sometimes. Jacks
naturalness on and off the screen
accounts for his wide popularity
here and abroad.

club name. A number of attractive
and delicious sandwiches were
made. After this there was another
club song.
The Best Club Story, written
and read by Susan Archdale of the
Frazer club, was very good. Miss
Hart, county demonstration agent,

The place the 4-H club plays in
the community was discussed by
Mrs. w. L. Carlson, who brought
out the help derived from the clubs,
the benefits to the boys and girls
at the adolescent age, when the
urge to gang with other young
sters is the strongest. She said
