Dinner at 6 Is
Revived At
BeIosco

Dinner at Eight" a masterpiece
of filmdom, is revived this week
by the Belasco Theater. This pic
ture, based on the stage success,
is q pretentious offering. The
cast reads like a who's Who" Of
Hollywood. In addition to IA stars
Of first magnitude, notable names
are noted as portraying the minor
roles.
The picture in itself is success
as a wholly entertaining, thought
full and artistically wrought blend
ing Of tragedy, comedy and drama.
The pictures motif does not center
upon any single or isolated Incl
dents. The film essays, on the
other hand, to give sweeping pic
ture of the problems, the drama
and the comedy in the lives Of a
small group Of persons all having,
through various causes, some
point Of contact with the others.
It is an interesting theme and,
more than that, it has been
brought to the screen beauti-
fully. The various interrelated
narratives that go to make up
the picture are each perfect in
themselves.
Among the Hollywood notables
contributing to the success OF
this film are Marie DreSSler,
John Barrymore, Wallace Beery,
Jean Harlow. Lionel Barrymore,
Lee Tracy, Edmund Lowe, Billie
Burke, Madge Evans, Jean Her
shoIt, Karen Morley. May Rob-
son and Grant Mitchell.
Various subsidiary films round
out q most satisfying program.

most of the bears on the refuge are

Jokes and tricks on them, Mease said
I'VE had a big black bear up in the
refuge few years ago that we knew
to be harmless, although he enioved
frightening people," Mease said "He
could tell right away if a person was
even slightly worried or frightened
and would then do his best to worry
him. His favorite trick was to follow
a person at a distance of about 100
feet and keep the same pace as the
person he was following. Usually the
person would become more and more
frightened and eventually break into

want to run the risk of making a
change at this time. 1t is also agreed
that the work relief provided by the
old ERA and still more recently by
the WPA has been and still is a po-
tent factor in most of the mountain
counties, in that thousands of people
have been provided with work and a
small regular monthly income who
otherwise would have been almost
completely destitute.
The thing that is going to turn the
vote so heavily in favor of Roose-
welt in the industrial counties, how
ever, is the attitude of the mill and
factory employees and their cOnvic-
ton that the President has stood by
them and that he is largely, if not
entirely, responsible for their better
wages, more reasonable hours and
better business conditions in general,
observers there say. These workers
are also convinced that the reason so
many of the mill and factory owners
or executives are against Roosevelt
and for Landon is because they are

we fixed up a big trap, baited it

from the trigger over into a clump
OF trees where l told one of the rang
ers to hide and wait until the bear
got in the trap and then pull the
string to trip the trigger. All the time
we were fixing the trap, the bear
sat in an open space across the creek
watching every move, just as if he
thought something unusual was go

After we had fixed the trap and
left, the bear decided to come over
and investigate, for bears have more
curiosity than almost any other ami
NAL. He walked all around the trap,
shifted at the dish of honey, but made
no move to enter it. Instead, he stood
on his hind legs right in front of the
trap, evidently saw the string attach

the string up to a place where he
could reach it. He then grabbed it
with one hand, Just like street car
