'fier Aienated Affections" Draws Capacity Audience
 Saturday-Fine Q1aracterizatiOns Lauded

A capacity audience witnessed
 the first presentation of the dram
 atic group of the Platts Mills Com
 munity Association, Inc, in the
 night. Each member of the cast
 adhering strictly to character in
 each individual part gave fine in-
 terpretations and so it would be
 hard to mention any outstanding
 performers. Mrs Luther Tooker as Mrs Kew, the star witness, a typi- cal meddling old maid and hard of
 hearing with her attendant Miss
 Deering in the person of Mrs Ches- ter Burtnett provoked such laugh ter when the discomfort of Miss Deering, Mrs Kew misunderstood most of the questions asked and answered accordingly. Luther Tooker as the prosecuting attorney carried that assignment ably as did Carl Braun as the defense attor- ney. Both did the profession proud. Albert D. Marsh, as Judge Alter bury presided over the court in able fashion until he was sWayed by the beautiful witness Mrs Her man Whiffle, played by Rita Dee gan. Howard Lattimer as MT Whif- file the plaintiff portrayed the character of the German proprie- tor of small candy shop and the
 abused husband in the best man. ner. CroWson the aviator defend- ant was well taken by Charles Booth as was the part of the clerk of the court by Charles Petitjean.

STOP BAD BREATH

Thousands of people afflicted with bad breath find quick relief through Dr Edwards Olive Tablets. The pleasant, sugar-coated tablets are taken for bad breath by all who know.
 Dr Edwards Olive Tablets act gently but firmly on the bowels stimulating them to natural action, and gently purifying the entire sys- tenn. They do that which dangerous calomel does without any Of the bad after effects.
 Olive Tablets bring no gripping pain or any disagreeable effects.
 Dr r. M. Edwards discovered the formula after 20 years of practice among patients afflicted with con elpation with the attendant bad kreath.
 Olive Tablets are purely vege- table compound; you will know them by their olive color. Take one Or two at bedtime for 2 week and note effect. 16cs S0cs SOcs

Trimblc, who having much world wide personal experience in stage and movie work was able to in- spire a group that had never done this work before to do so well. Mrs Helen Sherwell who was in charge of the makeup for the cast, did fine job in bringing out the char acters of the twenty one in the cast each one different type.

 But because preponderant do- mestic interest has been trans ferred. at least temporarily. to oc- curences closer at hand 1t is not to be supposed that events on the Oriental scene are at a standstill.
 Far from it. Relieved, apparent- 1y, of any immediate threat of a war with the Soviet Union and en- toying seemingly more cordial relations with China than at any time during the past five years Japan, aided by and taking ad- vantage of the concentration or western interest on t he alarms sounded in Europe, is rushing to- ward realization of her plans for a Far Western hegemony.
 That is the considered opinion of qualified observers in China with whom this correspondent has been in close contact since the latest Japanese military adventur- ing on the mainland of eastern Asia caused concern of the gravest sort in the Chancellories of the , world.
 Marked progress has been made . by Japan since she launched the program which resulted in estab- lfshment of Manchoukuo as an Miegedly independent Empire.

 Japan has cleared the decks for further progress by the following acts and happenings:
 1. Abrogation of the Washing ton Naval Limitations Treaty.
 2. Final effectiveness of Japan's withdrawal from the League Of Nations.
 3. Settlement of the controversy with the Soviet Union over the ownership and status of the Chin ese Eastern Railway.
 4. Demonstration that Japan cannot be ignored as a serious competitor in the trade marts of the world.
