Old Glory Has Waved Over Nation 161 Years

Proudly waving over our nation for 161 years, Old Glory will cele- brate another birthday tomorrow, June IA. Our forefathers gloried in this beloved symbol, which has been handed down from generation to generation as the priceless heritage of a liberty-loving people.
 Born amid the first flames of Am erica's fight for freedom, 1t has con- tinued to wave through troublous or tranquil times, and to lead the way to our nation as year by year 1t has marched with renewed hope and 8 high resolve along the Road of Destiny.
 Much of our flags early history is shrouded in mystery. We know that a flag of thirteen stars and stripes was adopted by the Continental Congress on June14, 1777, but we do not know positively by whom 1t was designed or wher 1t was first flown. A popular legend attributes the making of the first Stars and Stripes to Betsy Ross, 8 flagmaker of Philadelphia.
 Flagmaking materials were scarce in those days and this was often a severe handicap to those who wished to display the new banner. When John Paul Jones was at Portsmouth, N. H., preparing to sail abroad on the Ranger, the young ladies of that seaport fashioned out of their own and their mothers gowns beauti- full Star-Spangled Banner which was flown to the breeze in Ports mouth harbor on July 4. TIT.
 Another flag was fabricated few weeks later by the defenders of Fort Stanwix, N. r., when an officer don- ated his cloak for the blue field, soldiers gave their shirts for the white stripes, while the red stripes were fashioned from the petticoat of a soldiers wife. This flag was flown from flagstaff, raised on bastion nearest the enemy on August 3.
 These are well-authenicated &C., counts of the early, yet probably not the earliest, displays of our national flag afloat and ashore. We may smile a little at these primitive efforts of flagmaking, yet we car1- not forget the pride and patriotism which inspired the makers.
 Old Glory first floated over fortress of the Old World when Lieutenant Presley N. O'Bannon, of the Marine Corps, and Midshipman Mann, of the Navy, raised our flag over the captured fortress at Derne, Tripoli, where 1t was flung to the breeze on April 27, 1905.
 Nearly every schoolboy knows that "by the dawn's early light" on Sep

POLI'S

Wednesday Loew's Poli theater presents the Theater-goers, two of yesterdays outstanding films. Con- ceding to the requests of thousands for this return engagement the man. agement has finally secured for a three-day engagement, the stirring tale of "The Count of Monte Cristo" and T Cover The Waterfront"
 "The Count of Monte Cristo," is the film in which dashing Robert Donat made his American film de- but. Co-starred with him is lovely Elissa Landi.
 The second big hit q Cover the Waterfront" stars Claudette Col bert. Miss Colbert's versatility is at- tested by the ease with which she jumped from her role in Cecil B. DeMille's Roman-peroid spectacle to her 1883 characterization in the Edward Small production, with its background of high-powered news gathering, smuggling and mile-a- minute romance.
 Co-starred with Miss Colbert, Is Ben Lyon, who gives a superb characterization of the newspaper reporter who aids federal men in running down gang of psuedo fish, ermen, headed by Ernest Terrence, veteral star of stage and screen.
 If you have seen these two note worthy hits previously, you will without doubt wish to see them again. If you haven't seen them the Loew Poli theater affords you positively your last chance to do so.
 Current attractions include Robert Montgomery and Virginia Bruce in "Yellow Jack" Weekend audiences at Loew's Poli have hailed this film as truly great achievement in Hol- lywood's production of great enter tainment. On the same program are Irene Dunne and Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., in the scintillating comedy hit of the year, Joy of Living"
 You asked for 1t, and we'll deliver 1t. Upon your request, we are pre- senting once again, on the Loew Poli stage, Wednesday, direct from the Cotton club, the all-colored re- vue, that was received so heartily several weeks ago.
 Slim and Slam, WHEW and WOR Swingnsters, have been receiving acclaim from radio and stage audi ences, for their inimitable style oi song rendition, and will be back again Wednesday, to entertain you in their own grand manner. On the same bill are the four Cracker Jacks, Fay Banks, Charlie Banks brilliant Master of Ceremonies, anc several other outstanding person. alities.
