NOTED STARS In
HISTORY PICTURE
Enrol Flynn and Olivia de
Haviland In robin
Hood At Maryland

Robin Hood How strange the
fascination, how thrilling the
sound of these two words - the
legendary name of a hunted out
law = beloved by thousands of
Englishmen.
Well may it thrill, for "The Ad-
ventures of Robin Hood" War
ner Bros. film in Technicolor,
starring Enrol Flynn, is coming to
the Maryland Theatre all next
week with a special Sunday mid
night show.
Rich in lore is the story of how
a Saxon noble, Sir Robin of Locks
ley, the ablest archer in all Eng
land, gathered a band of stalwarts
around him to harass the cruel
Norman knights. How the out
lawed Robin Hood plundered the
rich and fed the poor has been
sung and re-sung in ballads and
has come down through the CEN
turtles = an incomparably fascinat-
ing story.
With this wealth of material
did two Warner Bros. writer's sit
down to fashion the script, the pic
turization of which is due to reach
the Radio City Music Hall screen
so soon.
Constant readers" all over the
world are probably going to take
their pens in hand to launch loud
and lusty complaints to newspa-
per editors when they get a
glimpse of the line, Original
story by Norman Reilly Raine and
Seton I. Miller" which will flash
on the screen among the credits
for THE Adventures Of Robin
Hood"
Messrs. Raine and Miller. when
assigned to do the screen play on
Robin Hood discovered a great
wealth of material through which
they waded with mounting enthu-
siasm. After digesting several
dozen different versions of the
popular legend, still popular after
eight centuries, they went back to
the original sources = old ballads,
and legends, some of them printed
in the archaic English of Chaucer's
day.
Having done this, they tossed
away all the notes they had made
and wrote a skeleton story of the
particular incidents of Robin Hood
they remembered from their boy
hood days.
The picture contains no end of
battling with bows and arrows,
quarter staffs, pixies and broad
swords and has particularly
thrilling duel between Robin and
Sir Guy Immense scenic sets
were built for ''The Adventures of
Robin Hood" described as the
most elaborate film of the year. 1t
is accompanied by superb must
cal score, composed by Erich Wolf

Early Day Car.

Mora-Although the 1906 model Buick
owned by Otto Irene doesn't possess
the modern points of no draft ventila-
ton or floating power, it has all the
up-to-date features characterizing a
car that was all the rage in the early
1900'S. Who knows but what this very
car may have been the one to first re-
place old Dobbin in the harness and
become the forerunner Of the modern
auto? Some Of the cars outstanding
selling points are: gas lights, which re-
quire match to ignite, all wood body
and no top, chain drive, buggy springs,
steering wheel located on the right, gas
tank under the hood, motor below the
seat, and clutch and hand brake on the
right outside. The car is started by a
crank near the clutch. Otto has hopes

HIS PLAY Is A KEY TO HIS
DEVEL OPMENT.

To fill the child's play needs to best
advantage, we must know what is tax
ing place in his development. The
period of growth directly following
birth is, We have seen, a time of eX-
tremely rapid development and is con-
cerned with developing the large, i'm
portant arm, leg, and trunk muscles.
The child is engaged in the tremend-
ously important business of controlling
muscles that help him walk, run, and
jump, climb and haul and push, talk
laugh and sing, touch and taste, feel
and handle as many different things in
his surroundings as possible.
Play at this age should aim to give
ease in motion, freedom for great
physical activity and opportunity for
much absorption through the senses.
There must be stairs, boxes, chairs for
experimental climbing. A small, stout
chair will be used more often to push,
to climb on, or to carry, than TO sit on.
There should be wagons to pull ropes
to swing on, so that arm and back
learn quick adjustments. Big balls to
roll and catch, sand and water for mud
pies, utensils to bang and pound with,
furnish appeal to several senses. The
manipulation of objects fascinates the
child. He likes to drive nails into soap,
to pour beans from one receptacle into
another, to turn the handle of the meat
grinder, or put together the Separa tor.
How often he is expected to gain sem
sorry and motor experience in a home
where he is constantly told mot to
touch!" The two year old who climbs
en- the polished dining-room table is not
wantonly mischeVious. Providing scme-
thing to climb on is easier and more
constructive than trying to check the
child every time he irfringas our rules,
which, after all, are arbitrarily laid
down for the convenience Of adults.
The mother vino provides oppOrtuni-
ties for the child to help in opening
and closing drawers and cupbOards, in
carrying dishes, in hunting for articles,
in short, who makes use OF instead Of
trying to thwart the childs impulses
will be rewarded by fewer Vexatious &C.
currences. Mothers often complain,
How can interest my twelve year old
in doing her share around the houSe?"
In the same breath they admit that
they could never put up with the
child's early efforts at helping because

County Without Office
Building for Is Years.

Baudette-Having operated for Is
years without owning a court house,
Lake Of the Woods county last week was
removed from that unique position
when the beard of commissioners pur-
chased the county office building. Lake
Of the Woods county was the only one
in the state, and possibly in the nation,
that cid not own its own court house.
Ever since the county was organized
in 1923 the business has been carried
on in the building owned by the
Baudette Chamber Of Commerce For
the first ten years no rent was charged.
During the last five years the county
occupied the building under an agree
ment by which it installed a heating
plant. The situation was perhaps the
only one of its kind in the United
States.
