''l05T ANGEL" E SHOWING TONIGHT
 ONLY AT CAPITOL

When a child star scores ill motion picture, few theatregoers realize the vast amount of diligent study and hard work behind every juvenile performance.
 Tiny Margaret O'Brien. who was recently acclaimed in Journey foi Margaret" now makes her bow as a star in the film Lost Angel, which comes to Capitol Theatre for two showings only.
 Adult players merely read their scripts, get acquainted with the characters and memorize the lines day by day
 Little Margaret can't read. She learns her lines by having her mother read them to her. Memoriz- ing by ear is quite bit different than the adult method. For radio appearance, the young actress must know every line of the entire script by heart. Fortunately, little Mar garet has an unusually keen mem- ory. Her mother has but to read the lines over twice for Margaret to get them letter perfect.

WORLD DAY OF
 PRAYER TO BE
 0B5ERvED HERE

The World Day of Prayer will be deserved in Juneau on February 16 at the Assembly of God. There will be services at 2 and 8 p. m., with Mrs. R. O. Baker presiding.
 The four uses to which the offer ings taken at tle World Day of Prayer services throughout the world this year will be put are: for mi grants and sharecroppers in the United States, religious directors in United States Government Indian schools, Christian literature, and Union Christian Colleges.
 Migrant workers and sharecrop- pers are provided with clinics. nur- ses, playgronnds, child-care centers, and religious services in "A states. Each year this work is extended through the offerings of women all over the world
 These offerings provide religious directors for seven government In. dian schools. Their daily presence bridges all the distance between pueblo or tepee and the sopl1istica- ten of school or city or army life. In many parts of the world there were no publications for the people who wanted to use their newly won Iliteracy to read about Christianity and the world family. Today, the Christian Literature Committee, With funds provided by World Day of Prayer offerings, provide eleven monthly magazines in India, three in China, one in Africa, one in Egypt, and one in South America. In many cases these magazines pro vide the only reading matter these people ever see.
 Today there are eight Union Christian Colleges for women; three in China, four in India, and one in Japan. Madame Chiang has prais- ed the work of the colleges in China. Relief can last only a day she said; but graduate lasts a lifetime-replanting, rebuilding, restoring. However, all these col leges are in great need of staff, buildings, equipment, and medical supplies. It is to be hoped that the offerings this year will be even more generous than usual.
