Witty and Cynical Comedy
Coming to Kootenai

a rare entertainment treat is
offered to fllmgoers with the show
ing at the Kootenai theatre of "Pyg-
mallon, Elimination of Bernard
ShaW's witty and cynical comedy
with Leslie Howard in the starring
role
Shaw's famous play makes for
superb screen fare with freshness
of treatment, scintillating dialogue.
compelling drama and exceptional
acting performances.
The Cinderella story firmly seizes
the imagination from the opening
shot and sweeps on in crescendo
OF dramatic force in which action
IS balanced against dialogue, spark
ling wit and situations against mo-
ments of drama. Pygmalion, the
foreWord tells us, was legendary
flgure who gave life to the woman
OF his dreams. ShaW's modern YER
sion replaces the hero of mythology
with the phonetics professor who
takes up challenge to convert the
llliterate flower girl into a reign
ing beauty. Through it all he main
talns cold, scientific disregard of
the girls feelings, ignoring the fact
that, while he can hold her speech
and her manners, he cannot reach
her soul. Aghast at his callous dis
regard of her feelings she flees from
him, and the professor then dis
covers that she has bound him to
her with bonds far tighter than any
he has imposed on her.
The role of the professor is
made-to-order one for Leslie How
ard and he gives the part warmth
and reality with a consummate act
ing skill.
Wendy Hitler, introduced to
screen audiences for the first time
IN the part of the flower girl. is a |
genuine discovery of the first mag

month to see Glacier National Park

horse.
Each year more than a hundred
thousand people enter Glacier Ma
tlonal Park, and many of these con-
tent themselves with an auto drive
over the Going to-the-Sun Highway.
Trail Riders of the Mountains,
however, is non-profit, non-com-
mercial association of people who
feel that the highway gives only a
fleeting glimpse of the real will
derness beauty of the park, in com
parison with the 81 per cent of the
park area which is accessible only
by trail.
Every summer they sponsor a sad
dle-horse trip, riding by day on
some of the 900 miles of trails
which wind through the lake and
country, and spending the
evenings about campfire under
the stars
This years trip began on Tuesday,
July ID, at Lake Mcdonald Hotel.
from which the riders will journey
up to Sperry Chalets and Sperry
Glacier. For the next three DAYS
they will make their way across the

truth about ADVERTISING
MEMORY COURSE IN / 900 LESSONS
By CHARLES B. ROTH

way, by finding man whom we
can trust and from whom we can
buy all the many things we need
to make our lives more interesting
and complete.
Advertising is the news OF bust
ness. Often that news is of far more
Importance to us than any other
news in the paper.
For example, if a woman needs
new coat and scans the advertise
ments to see what is being offered,
the business news she reads is of
far greater moment in her life right
then than the story on page one Of
a war in Asia Minor or of an oil
field fire in Texas.
Stripped of all glamor and mys-
terry advertising amounts to nothing
more exciting than this: telling peo-
pie of place where they can get
what they need to make life posi-
BILE or endurable or lively or en-
joyable at the most satisfactory and
economical basis.
The advertiser who keeps telling
the story of his advantages natural
ly gets the bulk of the trade, be-
cause, as you have just learned, we
all forget rapidly and must be re-
minded continually Ii we are to act.
When advertising is carried on for
long enough time, the name of the
man and his product become a part
of the daily life of millions of house
holds, respected, revered things and
names, almost as close to us as
friends or members OF our own fam
lily.

Twas This My
BY LYLE SPENCER
Animated Cartoons

HE first animal to appear in
animated cartoons was neither
Feilx the Cat nor Mickey Mouse.
1t was a playful dachshund who
mad a weakness for eating German
sausages.
The first real motion picture car
toon, drawn by John Randolph
bray, was combination of car
toon characters and living persons.
Released by Pathe Freres in 1912.
1t showed the misadventures of this
gormandizing dachshund who kept
on eating sausages until he finally
exploded. 1t proved so successful
that Bray drew 10 more similar
cartoons within the next year.
Not very long after that, colored
cartoons made their debut in mo-
ton picture theaters. The first one.
released in 1916, was entitled 1.-THE
Debut of Thomas Kat It was the
story of a kitten who had been
taught by its mother how to catch
mice. The kitten soon became so
eoeky about his abilities that he
tackled rat, with very tragic re-
suits.
These early drawings were made
on transparent celluloid, the colors
then being painted on the reverse
side of the film. Such early at
tempts were a far cry frsm the
quality OF our present productions.
Some of the newer asuper-specials"
like The Three Little Pigs,
drawn by men like Walt Disney, are
bigger drawing cards than regular
feature pictures, and occasionally
make as much money as films pro-
duced by Hollywood's greatest
stars.

Needle Hunter
Afflicted by
Fever

Jim Moran, the needle hunter,
carried on today in spite of slight
attack Of hay fever, straw blonds
and hecklers.
Moran, being somewhat allergic to
straw, turned up a little hoarse this
morning after "a hours of hunting
through his haystack at Connecti-
cut avenue and N street NV. in the
interest of science.
He said several straw blonds are
asking questions faster than he can
answer them with a sore throat.
Too, rude motorists kept. footing
their sirens all night and shouting,
"Hey, hey!" Moran couldn't be sure
If the neighbors were less appreci.
ative than he was.
Moran at first circled the stack
counter -clockwise, going up, then
clock-wise coming down. When this
failed to produce the needle he tried
diving headfirst into the stack from
the top and spreading out at the
bottom.
After "a hours of disappointing
labor, he has adopted the straw-by-
straw method. Meanwhile, his straw
boss and haystack guard remained
on duty to shoe away the crack pots
and to dish out soothing sirup for
Morans hay fever.
Moran Is now practically speech
