Auction Goes Well.

Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Simonsgaard
of Belgrade, visited at the home OF
his mother, Mrs. Peter Simonsgaard,
Sunday and Monday, coming special
ly to help with the sale Monday. Mr..
and Mrs. Marius Petersen left for
Chicago right after the sale and Mr..
and Mrs. Kai Simonsgaard left for
the big city Tuesday morning.
This coupled with the auction
naturally makes the old home quite
empty. However, Mrs. Simonsgaard
has retained a number of household
goods and is we'll able to receive
visitors.
Their auction Monday was favored
with good weather and eager buy
ers which naturally resulted in fine
sale. One cow and 3-day old calf
sold for 500; team of horses for
$217. 1t was quite well known in adj
vance that the prices would be high
as the Simonsgaard farm enjoys the
reputation of having good stock and
machinery.

M The Local TheaterS

1 singing, "Three Sophisticated La- dies.
 Gus Meyers, Jr, leading the Loew Poll theater orchestra, will furnish the sparkling musical background for the show, which will be pre- sented in addition to an outstand- ing screen program, and best of all there will positively be no advance in prices for this combination event of stage and screen.
 Heading the screen bill which opened three-day engagement this afternoon at the Loew-Poli theater, is Dreaming Out Loud" which fea- lures in the leading roles, Lum and Abner, longtime radio favorites of the nation.
 Lum and Abner, for ten years p-hight radio stars, bring to the screen the familiar surroundings of the Jot- Elm Down Store and Pine Ridge which they have made famous on the air As two kindly, old storekeepers they meet many dramatic situations in keeping the people of Pine Ridge progressive, happy and prosperous
 Frances Langford, lovely radio songstress, together with Robert Wilcox, lend the romantic interest to the story, while Frank Craven of "Our Town" fame, comes through with a splendid characterization in a difficult role.
 A grim scheme to ruin a big transcontinental bus line forms the basis of wildcat Bus" 2nd big hit on the program, which is an excit- ing drama of the nations highways featuring Fay Wray, Charles Land and Paul Guilfoyle.
 The next big hit attraction com- ing to Loew's Poli Is Escape, star. ring together for the first time Norma Shearer and Robert. This is the screen adaptation of the novel Escape" written by Ethel Vance and 1t retains all the danger, TO- nance and excitement that Miss Vance packed into the story Head- Ing a grand supporting cast of players are such brilliant charac- ter actors as Conrad Veidt, Ala Naz!mova, Philip Dorn and Felix Bressart.
 On the same program you will see Jean Hersholt in Remedy for Riches with Dorothy Lovett.

STRAND

wyoming" with Wallace Beery, Leo Carrillo and host of other screen favoriteS; plus "Dr. Gildare Goes Home" with Lew Ayres and Lionel Barrymore are the two splen- did attractions com!s1g to close this evening at the popular Warner Bros. Strand theater.
 For the most dazzling musical and grandest entertainment treat of the year, theatergoers are advised to see Mickey Rooney and Judy Garland in Strike Up the Band opening a four-day engagement at the Strand starting tomorrow after noon.
 With Mickey and Judy is Paul Whiteman and his orchestra, June Presser and a cast of hundreds.
 This time Mickey and Judy or- ganize a high school swing band and put on a show to raise money for . trip to Paul Whiteman's radio contest for school bands in Chi cago. Mickey meets Whiteman, played by the orchestra leader in person, and all is set for the trip then one of their pals needs the money for medical aid to save his life, and they make the sacrifice. But thanks to the town millionaire, they make the trip and win the con- test.
 They stage a comical travesty on old time stage melodrama, with such song gems as "The Curse of an Aching Heart" Heaven Will Protect a Working Girl" and oth- CTS. Mickey manages to give White man an idea of the bands prof. ciency when they borrow" the Whiteman band instruments.
 Other clever juveniles in the cast include William Tracy, Larry Nunn, Arm Shoemaker, Francie Pierlot, Virginia Brissac, Elliott Carpenter and Sarah Edwards.
 Co-featuring the program is the picture the critics call "The Best Chan hit yet" Charlie Chan at the Wax Museum" with Sidney Toler in the title role.

STATE

Ending this evening at the War ner Bros. State Theater is Moon Over Burma" with Dorothy Lamour, Preston Foster and Robert Preston; also Wayne Morris and Virginia Dale in ''The Quarterback
 Romance, laughter and thrills will be the keynote of the double smash bill opening at the State tomorrow afternoon with Arise, My Love" called 1940s love affair, as the head liner of the bill.
 Co.starring Claudette Colbert and Ray Midland, the film is definitely story of fighters. Claudette will be seen as an audacious newspaper wo- man fighting the despots of Europe with words. Midland, on the other hand, takes the part of flying fool, who speaks above the clouds with roaring machine guns.
 They meet in Span where she saws his life. He pursues her de- liriously to Paris, where in one out rageously gay scene Claudette locks her shoes in a safe to keep her heart from straying. But 1t is inevitable that they lose their hearts to each other.
 With the realization of love comes a lew timidity. They want to run to the safety of America. They almost do, but Q submarine intervenes and they are thrown back on the shores of Europe in the middle of the bat tie of France.
 Their story goes on the bitter end at the Forest of Compiegne, and here the lovers meet again and re- solve to come back to America. But now 1t IS win chins held high and hearts singing, because they are ready to tell their land what the greet fight is about.
 With tnv swo leading roles spieFi- didly portrayed by Miss Colbert and Midland, there is no lack of fine supporting characters, Outstanding are the portrayal of a harrassed press editor by Waiter Abel, and the brief but unforgettable role played by Ester Dale.
 All in all here is picture that should be seen by everyone. Put 1t on your must" list and be sure to attend the State tomorrow.
 And for your further enjoyment the management will present Rose mary Lane and large cast in Al ways A Brioe."

F-- JOHNNY GETS HIS GUN ----- Rookie Riflemen Will Learn To Use
 A Wide Range Of Infantry Weapons
One of a series taking a draftee into Uncle Sam's new army.
By MILTON BRONNER

ny MALIWN BMONNEN NEA Service stan Correspondent
 Washington, Nov. ll--John e. Citizen, drafted into the army and assigned to the infantry, soon learns this branch of the service is far dif- terent from what it was when his rather served in it in the World War.
 Army officials have drawn various lessons from the World war and the conflict now raging in Europe. As result, the fire power of a modern American infantry regiment, when completely armed, will be far more formidable than was dreamed of in 10l7.lS.
 In addition to certain technical companies, each infantry regiment will consist of nine companies of rifiemen, three handling heavier weapons, and one handling anti tank guns.
 Draftees will soon learn that rife companies handle far more than the name implies. Tn each company three platoons will train with rifles. bayonets and hand grenades. The other platoon will train with light machine guns, light mortars and au- tomatic rifles.
 But even riflemen will have to learn something about the other weapons so that in wartime they could replace men killed or injured and so carry on with the heavier weapons.

When the whole tithe is brought
into the storehouse, SO the needs
of Gods work are fully supplied
then the windows of heaven are
opened and a blessing poured out
that exhausts all our capacity to
receive (cf. Matt. 6;SS; 2 Cor. 9;6,
3; Phil. 4;l5, 19). Let any one
who doubts it prove God by trying
Him. Destroying insects had been
sent into their land destroying
their harvests because Of their
forgetfulness of God (cf. Amos
40; 7;l-l3)
II they repentsd. Jehovah prom
ised them abundant harvests in
field and vineyard, but the better
reward was that all nations should
call them blessed ". ~; Ct. Deut'

Israel shall return and when all
nations shall call them blessed

Gu. Thru the War Of 1912; the
Civil War and even through the
Spanish American War Negroes
have braved the bob-wire fences,
and the Miasma of Cuba the
treachery Of the Spanish and
brought back home victory of
Aguinaldo.
During the World War thous-
ands Of our black boys sacrificed
, their lives and blood upon the
battle fields of France for the
preservation Of Democracy. Wien
the masters Of the slaves were off
fighting for cause which they
thought was right, Negroes re-
mained at their slave masters
homes, protecting their wives,
children and property. Thru all
of this there is no record to trea-
son, sabotage Of fifth column
manifested among Negroes.
At this propotious moment, !
petition you, as President Of the

sociation. To show us inst n little
