A VERY CLEVER SHOW was

A VERY CLEVER SHOW was
put on for the guests of the Casa
Marina last night by Frank
Smith of New York, and John
Oldrin of Darien, Conn. The
story was the dividing of the
world and the actors were Adolf
Hitler, as acted by Frank Smith,
and Joseph Stain was portrayed
by Mr.. Oldrin. Both wore masks
of the exact likenesses of the
two men of Europe. Hitler was
the first to arrive on the scene
and discovered a globe in the
middle of the room. This he
proceeded to try to cart away with
him only to have his friend
Stain arrive on the scene. Both
argued over who was to have
what country, with the ultimate
conclusion that Stain got it all
and carried off the world under
one arm and Hitler under the 9TH
er. It brought many laughs from
the audience and the little skit
was enjoyed by most of the
guests of the hotel.

DID YOU KNOW

Many persons in civilian life
wonder why the United States
should have a Navy second to
none. Why do we spend millions
of dollars for ships, they ask.
The answer lies in the fact
that the United States has the
longest coast line to defend of
any Navy Power. Great Britain
has 1850 miles. Japan protects
LAO miles. Italy looks after L.
$50 miles and France LOO miles.
