STATE

Shirley Temple scores the biggest hit of her career with Gary Cooper and Carole Lombard in Now And Forever" which has been drawing crowds to Warmers State since it's premiere showing on Saturday last.
 Together, these three compose one of the most perfect combina- tions seen in films. The charac- ters they play are sympathetic. human and entirely believable. and they enact a story that is sim cere, with loads of heart-tugs and laughs.
 Plainly a born adyenturer, Gary Cooper is seen as a carefree chap, who lives by his wits. and hood winks every man he meets. Madly in love with Carole Lombard he even permits his cheating methods to cheat her away from him. s,
 His little daughter, Pennie, played by Shirley Temple. has been brought up by a guardian. Desperate for money, he even con- sents to accept cash for his right to his own daughter. That is. un. til he seets her.
 Then he carries her away To- gether with Carole Lombard they lead a happy. carefree life, until Cooper is again tempted to stray from the straight and narrow. At this point the child's love and faith in him is vindicated. when. by a noble deed of self-sacrifice. he removes himself from her life and makes happiness possible for her.
 In addition the program includes the first pictures of Canada's fa- nous babies, the Dionne quintup-' lets and a generauos amount of good, entertaining .short subjects including a comedy. news reel and cartoon.

Present Labor Disorder in State Makes Sobriety
 Imperative Mechanics Elect Local Man

 "Sobriety should not be confined to the use of intoxicants or to the over-indulgence of food alone," the mayor told the members of the or der in their state convention in Bristol, but rather should be ex- tended at this particular time to thought and action.
 With the present discomfort and disorder which prevails in some sections of Connecticut sane think ing and prudent action are neces- sary to the end that protection of property and liberty of action by the people will be preserved"
 Three Principle of Order
 Mayor Dutton was talking on the three cardinal principles of the or der, honesty, industry and sobriety.
 He said that honesty was accept ed as essential not only with the dealings within the order but with the actions of the members with the people at large. i.
 In speaking of industry he re- marked that it was of prime inn portance that mems time be occu- pied with useful work and labor.
 ''The deplorable lack of employ ment at the present time," said Mayor Dutton, makes is imperative that the third principle of the orr der, sobriety, he exercised to the fullest extent"
 Referring to Connecticut as the constitution state, the mayor said that the wholesome respect for law and order by the people of the commonwealth has been big fac- tor in its stead growth of indus tries, wealth and happiness of the people and that any attempt to break down these principle must if necessary be forcibly opposed.

Good evening.
DISSATISFIED

How oft inclined in the heat of day Are we to say impatiently,
 "What shall we do? We so need rain Therell be no grass no flowers, no grain With morning comes the glaring sun And shines until the day is done. The laborer feels his scorching rays And weariy sighs for rainy days The panting beast tells of the heat, As he laziy seeks some shady retreat; And man sits down at night to rest, Thinking, perhaps, that he knows best eff we could only have but one hours rain Everything would look fresh again; If we don't have rain the crops will be short, And all our labor will come to naught. We watch the clouds, the stirring breeze As it plays with the leaves of the thirsty trees' And list moment to the qualls shrlll cry Which betokens to us that rain IS nigh. An! here it comes in shining drops And hides itself in the tall tree tops. The dropping flower lifts up it's head, As the beautiful rain OCT the earth is spread. The thirsty land drinks in the dew From ouf Fathers hand, and thankful too Seem birds, and beasts, and living things, And verdure into new life springs But man is heard in tones complaining, "Isn't it time for it to stop raining? Do we forget, as the big drops fall, That Fathers care is over us all! That in His good time, and His own way, Our blessings are sent from day to day. Then let us trust Him. whateer betide, And trusting Him, be satisfied. Marion June 8, 1877.
