BRINGS A NEW ACCENT TO
THE SCREEN

Thomas Mitchell, playing Gerald
O'Hara. Scarlett's father, in Gone
With the Wind" opening at the Pal
ace Theatre. SeafOrd. Monday, March
Is. brings to the screen a new ac-
cent. one which may sound strange
to Dixie ears, yet is true to the char
acter of Margaret Mitchell's best
seller novel. Gerald, according to
the book, came to America from
County Meade. Ireland. and by his
wit and determination acquired land
in Georgia's rolling red clay hills.
From an adventuring Irishman he
turned into a Southern gentleman,
master OF Tara plantation. Through
association with neighbOrs his rich
brogue became softened by a Dixie
drawl He spoke with neither a
pure brogue nor the soft accents
peculiar to the South, but with mix
ture of both. The task of learning
two dialects held no terrOrs for Nit
chen, who is regarded one of the
screens most versatile men. He has
scored success hot only in a variety
of stage and screen roles, but as a
director and producer.

CANNING DEMONSTRATION
HELD NEAR REHOBOTH

Miss Pearl Macdonald conducted
a meat canning demonstration at the
home of Mrs. Ed Thompson. near
RehOboth. recently. Six women were
present to learn how to use the can
sealer and pressure cooker. Chicken
and beef We're the meats canned.
Miss Macdonald compared the ad-
vantages of canning in tin and in
glass Jars. The initial equipment for
canning in tin may be more expen-
sive yet the saving in time, fuel in
processing, and storage space coun-
terbalances the expense. Tin cans
may be cooled quickly thus stopping
the cooking of the food in the can
Immediately after the processing
time is finished. In canning meats
this makes for much more satisfac-
tory results since the danger Of
the meats is eliminated.
The pressure cooker reduces the pro-
time by practically one-third
which means considerable saving
when the cost of fuel is an item to
be considered.

THIRTY YEARS AGO
Taken From the 1903 Files Of
The Milford Chronicle

The Girls Minstrels, which was
given last Tuesday evening for the
benefit Of the Alumni Scholarship
Fund, was one of the best entertain
ments produced by home talent in
many. years, From the time, that
the cuftain rose until It had dropped
on the last part. the large audience
was kept in continual laughter. The
end ladies were continually Vieing
with one another in the manner of
springing some new jokes or doing
some funny stunts. The songs and
dances were of the very latest.
Misses Clara Pierce, Isabel Kes-
pert, Bertha Cole. Nellie Evans, Myr-
tie Evans and Lulu Dickerson, who
were the end ladies, held their diff
ferent parts with much credit. Miss
Pierce, if possible, was the best of all
the end ladies, but Miss Nellie Evans,
who sat opposite her, came in for
