Robinson, Ida Ltpino, John Gar field and . cast of thousands as the headline attraction. This special morning show was are ranged by Manager Julia Smith in response to the hundreds of re- quests from State patrons for an early show such as this. The Early Birdn show will undoubtedly be a blessing in disguise for local factory workers who have been working late shifts as 1t will give them an op- porturiity to attend the theater at least one day during the week.

 Based on Jack London's greatest story the picture stars Edward G. Robinson, Ida Lupino and John Garfield and boasts huge support- ing cast.
 The lusty chapters of the mighty novel bring to the screen thrills never before filmed. Here is the story of hellship .. of human dregs that were It's crew of the heartless killer who ruled them of a pretty girl who found herself fighting for her own life. It has been said several times that if Jack London had written "The Sea Wolf" twenty-five years later, he would have been accused of having his eyes on the movies.

'"The Great Dictator" starring Charlie chaplin, the worlds great- est comedian comes to Loew's POh Theatre on Saturday to open an en- gaeement of four days, and will be shown here ct regular popular pri- ceS.
 In the three-ring circus that Chaplin brings to the screen in The Great Dictator" there are many events that would constitute news in any language.
 Charlie has wandered far and looked deep into the heart for his laughter. Where. he got the Oceana Roll in the "Gold Rush." the pam ton1ined David and Goliath sermon in 'SThe Pilgrim" or the corn-feed. ing ordeal in Modern Times" no one knows. They have the smell and flavor of humankind.
 Tn the long catalogue of surprises and comedy inventions of "The Great Dictator" Chaplin perpetra- tes Q riiasterful travesty on an easily recognized ruler. But more than that 1t is Chaplin, the timid little man, looking at power, warily ewing, the big shot. It is the ancient privilege of. clowns.
 The beloved figure with his derby, his tiny inustaclle, his fioppy trou- sers and elongated shoes Gall some- what modified for the sake of real- ism in "The Great Dictator'D has been Q pioneer, 6 creator and an inventor. He still is in the new story he tells on the screen. Tn "The Great Dictator" Charlie is the is the quiet little man who wants to be left alone in the ghetto. Tn his barber shop, he strives almost pathetically to please. He speaks, but in frightened monosyllables. He just wants to be left alone.
 And then he is Hynkel, the rag ing, neurotic dictator. He raves and rants and emits the most violent of guttural explosives.
 The cast in "The Great Dictator" commands attention. Paulette God- dard is at the head of the cast and has an interesting role. Jack Oakie is superb, as are Reginald Gardiner, Billy Gilbert, Henry Daniell, Maurice Moscovich and Emma Dunn.
 On the Same program is another smash hit, "Sleepers West" with Lloyd Nolan, Lynn Bari and Mary Beth Hughes.
 Attractions current as Loew's are "The Penalty" starring Lionel Barrymor and Edward Arnold and Little Men" with Jack Oakie and Kay Francis.
 Purchase your tickets now for the midnight stage and screen show being held March 29th, Saturday night at this theatre, in cooperation with the Amusement Industry Di- vision of the Greek War Relief Drive. Admission Is 50 Gents.

DRAFTED MEN CAUTIONED TO
 TRAVEL LIGHT
SeIeltees Warned to Leave Their Belongings
 at Home

Selective Serv.ce reg.strants to Army induction centers should travel light" taking nothing but essentials so as to avoid inconven- .ence tc themselves and to the armed forces, John L. Mccormick, Territorial Director of Selective Service, cautioned today.
 One small bag should be suffi- cient to carry the things a selectee needs until he is given his equip ment by the Army, the Director declared. He said:
 If you wish, take a small bag with a few clean clothes, a few handkerchiefs, seeks, soap, towel, and other necessary toilet articles. These are essential for you will be issued necessary equipment by the Army, but they may come in handy should there be any delay in your induction.
 Leave jewelry, large sums of m oney and other valuables home, for they may be easily lost. If possible, take little spending money for such needs as you may have before your first pay day. Take some postal cards or station- cry and stamps, fountain pen, and an inexpensive watch if you have them"
 Selectees were warned by Dir ector Mccormick to leave automo- piles and motorcycles at home. Commanding officers will tell the men on their posts if they may have these vehicles and the soldiers then will have an opportunity to get them from their home, he pointed out.
 Unnecessary articles taken to in- duction centers must be returned to his home by the selectee at his own expense or to be otherwise disposed of, Director Mccormick said.
