Unheralded Acts Of Kindness Mean
More Than Life's Big Achievements

IF YOU WOULD BE LOVED, ADoRED
i AND REMEMBERED AFTER YOU HAVE
PASSED THE GATEWAY OF THIS WORLD,
THEN BE FAITHFUL AND CONSIDERABLE
IN TIE LITTLE THINGS YOU DO.
No woman ever loved a man because he
thought he was an Atlas carrying the burdens
of the world It's no mark of superiority to
carry obvious burdens in an obvious way. Here
you have a picture of Atlas who, in Greek
mythology was the son of the Titan lapetus
and Clymene. and brother of Prometheus and
Epimetheus. He was father of the Pleiades
and the Hyades. He attempted, you remember,
to storm the heavens with his Titians, and was
condemned by Zeus to bear up the vault of
heaven in the neighborhood of the garden of
Hesperides at the west extremity of the earth
where day and night meet.
CAN YOU IMAGINE ANY ONE LOVING
HIM BECAUSE HE is WEIGHED DOWN
WITH BURDENS? Anyway. his burden was
punishment-not an honor.
It Is not the great things the big achieve
ments of your life that endear you to those
that live around you, but the unheralded acts
of kindness.
Though a man have 20-story office build
ing, town and street named after him. yet
will his wife remember after he has gone that
he liked his coffee black in the morning; that
he always remembered her favorite concerts
and magazines; that he was proud of the way
her hair curved at the nape of the neck or
that he liked her best in pale blue" Though
woman be a reigning beauty and is famous on
two continents for her social standing yet will
her husband love her because of the way she
sits gaily on the arm of his chair and rests her
cheek on the top of his head.
Life Is a mosaic, having thousands OF tiny
pieces of various colors all set to make per-
feet and complete whole. The public at large
may see the finished work of art in its en-
tirety and as such admire it, but the friends
and the family see the little pieces as they are
being made and set 1t is by this that one
stands or falls, by this that one is loved or
merely admired and tolerated.
THE LIVES OF TRUEST HEROIsM," said
Theodore Roosevelt ARE THOSE IN WHICH
THERE ARE NO GREAT DEEDS TO LOOK
BACK UPON. IT is THE LITTLE THINGS
WELL DONE THAT GO TO MAKE A sue
CESSFUL AND TRULY GOOD LIFE" 1T is
UNQUESTIONABLY TRUE THAT GENUINE
AFFECTION CARES NOTHING FOR
WORLDLY SUCCESS OR GREAT WEALTH
Those who love you do so because their world
grows a bit brighter when they hear your
voice and because sorrow and pain seem more
endurable when they feel the pressure OF your
hand In theirs.

"Thc master is dead" Wong whispered.
Tears were on Ming Tai Bows cheeks when,

quickly out of the ROOM down the stairs and
into the fog-bound night. No one ever knew
that she had gone to the house of Fong Yee
that night, not to beg his forgiveness and offer
herself as his bride. but to warn him that an
attempt was to be made upon his life by rival

the wires at the telephone exchange He had
kept her waiting to humble her and to ease his
pride, and in consequence had lost his life But

SAN ANTONIO
PACKING HOUSE
Workers Paid from $12 to
SIG for " to S4-HOur Week

The inhuman and thoroughly out
rageous conditions imposed on unor-
ganized workers by the operators of
packing houses in San Antonio, Texas,
have been revealed in series of ar
ticles by A. T. Ohliger, member of
Typographical Union No. 172, prepar-
ed for the San Antonio weekly Dis
patch" conditions which are stirring
the labor movement in that city to the
need of more effective organization
of this industry.
1t was pointed out that workers in
some plants put in 72 to 81 hours a
week, oftentimes in water ankle deep,
for which they receive wages totaling
around $12 to SIG week. The 12-hour
day and 6-day week is reported as
common, with some employees working
from six to seven days week.
1t was also revealed that these un-
derpaid workers naturally often find
themselves in urgent need of small
amounts of ready cash and in at least
one instance reported they go to
foreman. This gentleman accommo-
dates to the tune of Is per cent in
terest per week on each dollar, or at
the quite profitable interest rate of
78O per cent. And woe betide the
luckless chap who neglects to pay up!
There is only one way to help the
workers in these places" Mr. Ohliger
points out, land that is an organiza-
tion among the workers-not com
pany' union but an honest-to-go goodness
union of workers in that craft" such
as is represented by the Meat Cutters
and Butcher Workmen, affiliated with
the American Federation of Labor.

Taking toll Of every caravan that

Cumberland, Md, Union
Signs With Dye Works

Cumberland, Md (AFLNS)-Fed-
eral Labor Union No. 18948, affiliated
with the American Federation of
Labor, announced the negotiation of
an agreement with Footers' Dye
Works, Inc, of Cumberland The
agreement places the firm on the list
of employers who are fair to organ
lied labor.
In circular letter announcing the
agreement, union officials said "the
company has had difficulty in COM
peting with unfair firms in the same
line of business" and requested or
ganized labor to give their patronage
to the union cnocern.

HOLLYWO CD
By Paul Harrison

Hollywood-Movie contracts often are heard about, but seldom are seen. For this reason most of the things you hear about contracts are fiction. It is 8 great tempetation for press agents, on dull days, to write that Gloria Goofus, contract specifies that "she must not indulge her favroite sport of riding wild mustangs"
 Or that Wallis Bleary, being su- oerystitious, insisted on 8 clause prohibiting the starting of any pie lures on Friday.
 Or that Dulcet Tone, newest glamour-girl, is restrained by con- tract from playing tennis or danc- ing more than one hour daily lest she overdevelop the muscles in her too, too lovely legs.
 From all l can learn it is true that Bing Crosby's agreement stip- ulates that he does not have to make a picture during the Santa Anita racing season. And John Boles doesn't have to work on Sat- urday afternoons during the foot ball months. Most other actors, and directors, too, play hockey then re- gaYdless of what their contracts say
 There are new contracts which specify that an actress husband may not be on the set while she is working before the camera

 The charter group" has split with the constitution" wnig of the Connecticut young democrats, which recently held convention and elected officers at Hartford.
 A bitter fight on the floor of the Indianapolis convention was fEe- cast as both factions indicated they would fight for recognition to the last ditch.

POL.I'S

c-hree-star drama comes to the Loew-Poli theater Saturday when Manhattan Melodrama," is brought back for four-day engagement.
 Clark Gable, William Powell ana Myrna Loy are the stars.
 Gable and Powell, in this picture appear for the first time together but Gable and Miss Loy recently achieved distinction in the pictur- ization of the famous stage play Men in White"
 The picture is especially note- worthy in that it re-enacts some oi the most memorable events of past days-such as the Dempsey -Firpo fight of 1923, the Harry Thaw-Stan- ford White killing of 1906, which shocked 8 nation.
 Gable, as a big-shot gambler powerful and dramatic figure Of the city's night life, has role slightly reminiscent of his earliest successes on the talking screen. It is dis tinct departure from his previous hits, in that 1t does not present him as a romantic lover.
 William Powell also plays g role similar to those in which he tirst gained fame; he is the district at torney lifelong friend of Gable who is called upon to prosecute his pal for murder.
 Miss Loy, elevated to stardom gives a marvellous performance as the woman between them.
 Manhattan Melodrama" is pie ture you simply must not miss.
 In bringing Trader Horn," the companion feature, to the talking screen, Metro Galdwyn-Mayer re- cruited what is said to have been the biggest photoplay expedition ever to penetrate Africa to film a narrative motion picture.

Gladys Swarthout is an example. And sometimes there are special clauses discouraging marriage. Robert Taylor, for example, ur1- doubtedly would leave some of his box-office value at the altar. Julie Hayden was 50 annoyed and handicapped by being publicized as "a second Ann Harding" that when she went to Paramount she insisted on clause promising that her name never would be mentioned in connection with Miss Harding. Clauses Ignored
 The average movie contract, with out special provisions, contains B different whereeases and where fores, hereinafter referred to as clauses. They are full of legal non- sense and probably are not read by anybody except excited young players who are signing for the first time. q remember Fanny Brice once telling me that she was so excited when she got her first Ziegfeld contract that she actually fore it out showing 1t to practically everybody on Broadway, and had to ask ziegfeld for 8 fresh one.)
 In signing the average contract the artist agrees to "act, pose, sing, speak, or otherwise appear solely for the producer" Without additional pay he must render his services on radio (and television) programs ar- ranged by the producer. Most of them can do commercial broadcasts with the producers permission, but Shirley Temple is one star who is forbidden to go on the air for any, body.
 An artist must make personal appearances on the stage, or even appear in legitimate plays, if the producer says so. Usually the art ist gets extra money for such ac- tivities. The artist also permits the us eof his name in publicizing pic lures and in advertising tieups.
 
 On Their Behavior
 Marlene Dietrich,s contract, very special one, specifies htat no advertising tie-ups can be arranged without her personal okay of the product and the advertising blurb One such deal was made, though, without her authorization, and she went to court about it and secured a judgment against her studio. The artist grants the producer the right to dub in the voice of another person for his own. This clause permits the making of for eign-language films, and also the clubbing of singing voices when ar- tisst are not able to warble credit ably.
 The artist agrees to conduct him self with due regard to public morals and conventions" and agrees that he will not commit any act that will tend to degrade him in society or bring him into public hatred, scorn or ridicule; or shock, insult, or offend the community; or ridicule public morals or decency. Offaand, you can think of two or three artists against whom this clause might have been invoked. But it never has been tested in court, and probably never will be because such case, in itself, might shock, insult, or offend the com ] munity.

STATE

Today and tomorrow Warner Brothers State theater is presenting a popular request return engagement of Bette Davis sensational dramatic triumph, Marked Woman" with Humphrey Bogart and a stirring supporting cast. The companion fea- ture, being shown in Waterbury for the first time, is That Mans Here Again" with the king of clowns, Americas arch assassin of gloom, Hugh Herbert. It's grand show, be sure you see 1t.
 Starting Saturday the State will offer a gala Mothers Day" program headlined by the first talking-film version of Mark Twain's immortal adventure romance, "The Prince and the Pauper."
 The Well-known story is that of two babies born in London at the same moment in the 18th century one the young Prince Edward, who first sees life in the palace; the other Tom Canty, who opens his eyes in the slums, the son of thief and villain. Their lives become tan pled because they look exactly alike.
 The producers got break in mak- ing this picture because they discov- cred a pair of identical twins-B Billy and Bobby Mauch of Peoria, III. Bobby plays the Prince, Billy the Pauper. It is the first film showing for the former. The latter already has played Anthony Adverse" as a child, and Penrod in "Penrod and Sam."
 Errol Flynn, handsome young Irish star of Green Light" Captain Blood" and 'The Charge of the Light Brigade" heads the cast. Once more he is a swashbuckling swordsman.
 The cast also includes such famed troupers as Claude Rains, Henry Stephenson, Barton MacLane, Phyllis Barry, Montagu Love. Fritz Leiber and Ian MacLaren. Here's 8 picture that should find it's place among the ten best of the year.
 The companion feature will be ~The Girl from Scotland Yard" with Karen Morley, Katharine Alexander. Robert Baldwin and Edwardo Cian- nelli.
