STRAND

"When Love Is Young, light, romantic comedy with Virginia Bruce, Kent Taylor and Walter Brennan is to be seen today and tomorrow at Warmers Strand the- ater.
 The picture, Glass Prophecy" deals with an obscure country girl who, snubbed by classmates and ig- nored by the school hero she .ad- mires. accompanies her uncle to New York to study singing.
 There she meets a theatrical press agent whose exploits, for all their hilarity, land her in jail, but eventually help her to musical com- edy stardorl.
 Kent Taylor is the nimble- -witted press agent and Walter Brennan brings an entirely new character to the screen in his humorous role as the uncle who operates g. sidewalk telescope in New York.
 In addition to singing two hit songs, "When Love Is Young" and Did Anyone Ever Tell Your" Miss Bruce dances for the first time on the screen.
 The "inside story" of the billion dollar slot machine racket as it operates in 8 big city, is laid bare in King of Gamblers" daring and thrilling motion picture story which is the companion feature on this program.

STATE

If you would enjoy a delectable menu of superb screen entertainment don't miss "The Go-Getter" with George Brent and Anita Louise, also "The Case of the Suffering Bishop" with Donald Woods and Ann Dvorak, current attractions at Warmers cool, comfortable State theater.
 Wednesdays new program will be headlined by T Met Him in Paris, comedy as crisp and sparkling as the snoWs of the Swiss Alps, against which most of the action takes place.
 Claudette Colbert, Melvyn Doug- las and Robert Young are seen in the starring roles. Miss Colbert, ill the role of a young American girl on a long-planned vacation in Europe, is given plenty of oppor- tunity to display these comedy tal- ents which she used SO well in Tt Happened One Night" and the "The Bride Comes Home" Tn this new film she has two leading men with whom to spar in conversation give-and-take. Not only is the dia- logue keen and snappy, but the rough h-and-tumble action and incl. dental byplay are equally mad ant delirious. II Met Him in Paris" is played with delicious freedom ane wisecracking action.
 AS the story runs, Miss Colbert goes to Paris, where she runs into a couple of writers, also Tanks; Melvyn Douglas, suave man-of- the-world playwright, and Robert Young, a playboy novelist. Their impetuous courtship for the bru- nette beauty takes the trio from Paris to St. Moritz, smartest of the Swiss winter sports centers and then back to Paris again. In the strange romance, Miss Colbert's heart swings first to one, then to the other of her mad suitors, until she is forced to a showdown.
 The companion feature will be "Her Husband Lies" melodrama starring Ricardo Cortez and Gail Patrick supported by 8 brilliant cast of local favorites.

HIGHER INTEREST
 RATE FOR NOTES

Washington, June 6-(UP) = The treasury today undertook its $800,- 900 GOO mid-June financing program by offering 8 higher interest rate for a note issue than at any time in three years.
 The offering was made in two note series, one of $400, 100000 bearing one and three-eighths per cent and maturing in September, 1889 and the remaining 00,0O0,000 bearing one and three-fourths per cent, maturing in March, 1922.
 Not since the treasury issued a series of one and five-eights per cent notes three years ago has the interest rate been 8 high.
 Treasury officials pointed out, however, that compared with an is- sue of 3 1-2 per cent notes floated at the depth of the depression, the interest rates of the new offerings are low.
 The last note offering bore a one and one-fourth per cent rate but, to quoae the words of high treas- ury official, things have happened since last March,"

Corn Boon to COlOnIsts

The first Europeans to recognize
corn's importance were the English
colonists on our Atlantic coast.
Wheat they tried and it failed
them; and when the very existence
of the Massachusetts and James
town settlements hung in precarious
balance during those first hard win
tiers, it was corn that saved them.
Capt. John Smith forced every fam
lily of his little band to plant corn.
They were rewarded handsomely.
Like the sparse crops of the first
dawn of civilization, it became a
means Of exchange, u form of mon
ey. Surplus corn built up trade and
commerce, encouraged the growing
stream of immigrants crossing the
Atlantic, and opened the gates to
wealth and prosperity.

Down Trees HeadBrst

According to Simpsons 'Uncom-
mon Knowledge" squirrels, chip
hunks and similar ight-bodied ar
boreal rodents are the only ami
mails that habitually and naturally
come down trees headfirst. This, of
course, excludes cats, which come
down tail first. Apes, raccoons, por-
cupines, opossums, kinkajous, coati-
mundis and other heavier-bodied
tree-clmbers come down tail first
by preference, using the claws to
help support the weight of the body;
some Of these, however, reverse the
method when in hurry or when the
tree is inclined. Foxes and the
smaller members of the cat family
are not classed as true tree-climb-
ers and they come down in a rather
unnatural and awkward manner.
The coatimundis may come down a
tree either way, or they may simply
drop from the branches of the tree.

Verdi's Failure

When Giuseppe Verdi, at the age
of sixteen, took his entrance exam
nations at the conservatory of Mi
Ian he showed so little evidence Of
musical talent that the authorities
declined to enroll him. This is re-
lated in the Standard American En-
cyclopedia. This did not bother
Verdi, however, and he continued
his studies, ultimately rising to the
heights with his III Trovatore,"
"Rigoletto," La Traviata," and
La Fora del Destino."

The Feet Always Busy

The feet do more work relative to
their size than any other part of the
body. 1t is hard to visualize the
fact that when a man walks a mile
he places an aggregate of $50 tons
on his feet. Three out of every four
adults in this country have some
sort of foot trouble. The blame for
this condition is largely due to in
correct footwear, but the jar Incl
dent to walking on hard pavementS
and floors is a contributing cause.

The Spotlight
(By Jimmy Lee)

Evidently some one seems to be cash
ing in on the original Harlem Globe
Trotters, professional basketball teams
fame. Last week down in Davenport,
Iowa, a team calling themselves the
Trotters played the semi-pro team, of
that city. However they (the would-be
Trotters) were all arrested following a
free-for-all fight. The disturbance arose
from a dispute over rules in the game.
In the meantime Abe Sapernstein, who is
the real manager of the original Har-
lens, is here in the Twin Cities making
final arrangements for annual appear
ance of his boys in the Minneapolis Ar
mory and was quite huffed up over the
affair. Boiling under the collar. Mr..
Sapernstein said he would go to the Iowa
city and prosecute these individuals who
were using his teams reputation as a
builder. . This game at the Armory

Judicial Reorganization

No issue since The World War has brought such a deuge
of debate, argument and bitterly opposed controversy as the
Presidents judicial reorganization proposal which, to all in
tents and purposes, would give the Executive Branch control
over the Judicial Branch 10 an unprecedented extent. Public
lists have written article after article upon various phases of
the question. Public men-Have for that group which hesitates
to say yea or may to anything until it has decided which
side has the tide of public sentiment in its favor-have come
out with their opinions. The "letters from readers sections
of the big newspapers are crammed day after day with conflict
ing views of the average citizen"
The Presidents action has brought into THE lmelight a
many-faceted and very old question concerning fundamental
governmental theory. There are two kinds of demoeraeies in
the world. One, such as the United States has a writ1n con
sttution by which the Legislative Branch must abide-or be
reversed by the courts. The other kind Of democracy is best
exemplified by England which has no written constitution 1t
has instead what might be termed a fluid constitution. 1T can
be changed at will by Parliament. In England the courts
simply interpret legislative acs-tley cannot overrule them.
