Girl Scout News


The Girl Scouts have added to
the cherry spirit of the Christmas
season by decorating the public Ii
brary for the holidays. Frosty ev-
ergreen boughs and pine cones are
hung IN each window. A merry
Christmas message adorns the back
wall with small frosted trees at
either end of the book cases. The
large Christmas tree was furnished
by Bill Glass and decorated by the
Girl Scouts.
Alcine Laffoon and Flora Mae
Sagen were awarded blue ribbon

was allowed to choose box to wrap,
! large sheet of paper, Christmas
seals, tag and the necessary rib
bon to wrap her package As the
packages were completed they were
numbered and registered with the
captain, then taken to the adjoin-
ing room ready for the judges, who
arrived later in the evening. Neat
ness attractiveness, and appropri-
ate wrappings for the size of pack
age. were the points on which the
packages were judged. After the

INDEPENDENCE OF THE SOIL
BY Clayton Rand

Reno (Okla) American, when an organization of

under the drastic orders from swivel chair auto
Gratis at Washington . A serious attempt is being
made to convert the farmers into political puppets
Of the new deal and with bride of government
check in one hand and written rules or threats in
the other
mo more brazen attempt to bring farmers to
the rank Of serfdom has been witnessed in Russia
Germany or Italy than what is now being wit
messed in this free land of America"
Farmers still form our most Independent group.

fell for federal gravy along with others BIT by ali

X Ezra-For Example
: By Virginia Vale

WHEN a wife y, tells all,or
w almost all-it's bound to
be interesting. Especially if
she is the wife of a famous
actor. In Charles Laughton
and |" Mrs. Laughton, we'll
known in her own right as
Elsa Manchester, has written
a delightful book which tells
a great deal about herself, more
about her husband, and quite bit
about other people And she has
done it cleverly and in the best of
taste, which is unusual.
Laughton had made a success on
the English stage before Hollywood
heard of him, in fact, it took an
appearance on the stage in New
York to make the movie moguls
clamor for him. His performance
in 1.-The Private Lives of Henry the
Eighth" as Henry introduced
him to the American public, and
made Americans exclaim in amaze
ment that at last the English had
turned out a good picture.

Many of our American movie ac-
tors could take tip from Laugh
ton. From the first, he refused to
be typed. He'd play pickpocket
successfully, and Immediately he'd
have lot of offers to play pick
pockets. He would refuse them, be-
cause he didn't want to be stamped
with that one kind of role forever.
