WOMEN OF MOOSE REGULAR MEETING 1 The regular meeting of the WoI men of the Moose was held at the i lodge home Thursday evening with a good attendance. The business meeting opened with the chaplain ■offering prayer. • Plans were made to attend the I northeastern district meeting No. 6. Ito be held in Auburn Sunday. May 29. The afernoon meeting opens at two-thirty o'clock. Any co-workers wishing to attend are to notify Mrs. , I Lloyd Kreischer or Mrs. William Huffman. The senior regent appointed Mrs. Lulu Shaffer and Mrs. Charles Morgan as a committee to select a baby gift for Mrs. David Teeple. Nomin-

ago, he and Janet Gaynor worked in another picture with Shirley, "Change of Heart". But you never saw Shirley in this film. Before it was released, she had made "Little Miss Marker" with Dorothy Dell, and was hailed as a star. Fox cut her out of “Change of Heart”, not bocause she wasn't good, but because the part wasn't big enough. On the “Algiers” set, we find Sigrid Gurie visiting in Hedy Lamarr's dressing room. This is I unusual. Most feminine stars stick to their own dressing rooms. But these girls are new to Holly- | wood and haven’t picked up all its ways. Today, they are talking about . husbands. i The husbands are getting the | worst of it. Miss Gurie is in the i midst of a contested divorce suit with hers. Miss Lamarr is bemoaning the fact that the money she got as a settlement is tied up . in a Vienna bank. “Before I marry again, I’ll have 1 to know the man awfully well," says Miss Lamarr. Miss Gurie nods agreement. So it looks like bad news for the 1 , Hollywood swains. Marjorie Weaver's severest critic ■ is a chimpanzee working with her 1 in “I’ll Give a Million”. The monk doesn’t like women He's kicked Marjorie in the face , in one scene and he’s scratched her ( several times. We watch Director Walter Lang ‘ try to get a shot of the two in a set representing I

a French street, i A policeman ; has arrested , Warner Baxter ' for turning in a false fire alarm. Marjorie is try- , ing to explain , that the chim- ' panzee did it. | She is holding the monk by a tether. The rehearsal goes oft smoothly. But, as

W ** Marjorie Weaver

they go to shoot the scene, the chimp suddenly pulls the rope out ; of Marjorie's hand arid makes a dash through a crowd of extras. With his trainer in hot pursuit, he goes right for the top of the stage. It is like a chase scene in a picture. For 10 minutes, all the actors crane their necks and watch the drama of the catwalks. Finally, the monk is cornered. Giving out doleful cries, he is brought back down to resume his career as a Hollywood actor. ;

VETERAN NEWS EDITOR DEAD Earle Martin Os Cleveland Plain Dealer Is Dead At 63 Cleveland, May 6 — (U.R) —Earle Martin, veteran newspaper man and production manager of the Cleveland Plain Dealer and the | Cleveland News, was dead today. He died at his suburban South Euclid home last night after a fivemonth Illness. He was 63. Often called one of the most admired newspaper executives in the country, Martin had held important' l positions on four Cleveland dallies .in the past 20 years as reporter, editor and publisher. He had become production man- ■ ager of the Plain Dealer and News In January. 1937. Immediately, he , revamped the type face and makeup of the Plain Dealer, a morning paper. Martin was an Indianan, the son of a college president. He worked in a print shop during his high school days and entered Moores Hill college in 1894, determined to become a newspaperman. His first job of reporting paid $1 for a week’s work, when he covered a Methodist conference in Madi-1 son. at the age of 14. Upon graduation from Moores Hill, he was given a job on the Indianapolis News and worked i there for a year as a reporter before he bought two rural Indiana weeklies. This venture into the I publishing business failed after a year, and he took a job on the i Cincinnati Post. There he made a reputation by j helping to solve the murder of a young woman, the famous Pearl Bryan murder case. and. at the age of 25. was named managing editor. Subsequently, Martin became managing editor of the Indianapolis News, editorial director of the Indianapolis Star, the Muncie Star and the Terre Haute Star. In 1905. he came to Cleveland as editor of the Press, and later became editor-in-chief of the Scripps-Mcßae Ohio newspapers. For a time, he left active newspapering to become industrial commissioner of the Cleveland chamber of commerce. In four years in that post, he brought multiple new industries to this city of a million ! and kept others from leaving. Before becoming editor of the ] Cleveland News in 1932, he was affiliated with the Newspaper Enterprise association, the' Washington Daily News, which he built, and the Cleveland Times, which he published. Funeral services will be held Monday at 2:30 p. m. from the RETONGAWORTH WEIGHT IN GOLD STATES HORTON “It Gave Me The Results I Was Looking For After Other Medicines Failed” “Retonga went right to work and fixed me up, and I'm telling you I had tried plenty of other medicines that had failed.” declared j Mr. Joseph C. Horton, 721 W. Powr* r ■ ■ * L MR. JOSEPH C. HORTON ; ers St., Muncie railroad man, a few days ago. "Twelve years of trouble with acid stomach, gas pains, bloating, , and kidney disturbances kept me miserable all the time. The thing ) i that was almost unbearable was | when I went to bed at night I’d | have a pain in the back that seemi ed to go clear through me, and up from one to three times a night because of my kidneys and bladder. I suffered a lot with backaches, and altogether I was in a badly rundown condition generally. "Retonga gave me the results I was looking for, and now my appe--1 tite and digestion is so good my wife says she is going to put a stop to my eating so much. All the trouble with acid stomach and gas formation is gone, and those backaches and that pain at night that went clear through me are gone. My kidneys are normal again and I sleep like a baby all night. Retonga was worth its weight in gold to me.” Rtonga may be obtained at Holthouse Drug Co. advt.
