Yes, going to the movies is a simple, homey, everyday part of our lives. But it represents an American privilege, too—the right to spend our leisure time as we wish; the right to unfettered education; the right to see what’s happening in the world, truthfully and accurately. And, though you may not often think of it, ypur railroad helps make such entertainment possible. For over its rails speed the films

Eight detectives had ibeen guarding the Count’s house ; when they affected their escape, i The family is reported to have 1 arrived/ in Munich, Germany. 'coming attractions lAT THE FAIRY THEATRE WEEK OF SEPTEMBER 3-9 “Lure of the Island” opens the coming week of attractions at the Fairy theatre, showing on Friday and Saturday of this week. Margie Hart plays the part of a Ta-hitian-half Irish girl and the part j she plays in preventing a French ! commandant turn the island over Ito the Japanese, being a Nazi, alj though pretending to be French. FBI men obtain the island lass’ cooperation and save the day. The second feature for the two nights is “Ladies Day”, featuring Lupe Velez, Eddie Albert, Patsy Kelly and others of equal importance. : Sunday and Monday Rosalind i Russell and Fred Mac Murray | bring to you a move by this country’s leaders to get information about the Japanese controlled islands of the Pacific. Asa worldfamous aviatrix Rosalind flies a plane on a world tour, only to jeome down in the Pacific and in i the search for her much information is secured which today is helping to defeat the Japanese. Fred Mac Murray plays the part of a lover —but is left in the lurch by his sweetheart when she finds it is necessary for the success of the plans. This is a wonderful picture rather mushy in parts, but overall a truly great picture. War pictures are predominant this week with “Squadron Leader X” showing on Tuesday night only. Portraying a young and lovely girl of German extraction who is faced with the alternative of betraying Britain, the country of her adoption, or of facing almost certain imprisonment and dishonor, Ann Dvorak is co-star-red with Eric Portman in this great picture. The scenes are laid in London and deal with attempts of a German officer to use a beautiful German girl having adopted England as her home as a means of escape. A pleasant change from the year’s path of madness along war lines comes on next Wednesday and Thursday when John Carroll and Susan Hayward are featured in “Hit Parade of 1943”. The story is woven around anew Writer of songs and the crooked dealings of a firm publishing music. Stealing her first production the head of the firm finally gets into deep water when he falls in love with the country girl but to untangle the mess is something else. It is said the path of true love runs smoothly but in this case it could not have been true love if the path were followed.

CLEANING UP GARDEN SPOT FOR WINTER PAYS ON NEXT YEAR CROP _____ i Lafayette, Sept. 2 The garden spot which produced so bountifully this season deserves the best of treatment during the winter months, says W. B. Ward, Purdue University extension garden specialist. After a general clean-up of the garden area and most of the vegetables have been removed, it may be seeded to some winter cover. Removal of the old vegetative growth gives the garden a dress-ed-up appearance and aids in the control of insects * and diseases. Com stalks, tomato vines, cabbage stems, and bean stubble are carriers of future garden troubles. All this refuse material should be piled neatly in a square, flat stack about five feet by five feet, and covered with four to six inches of soil. Next, five pounds of any commercial fertilizer should be spread evenly over the soil and raked in. This called composting. Additional composting material may be made from sod, leaves, and some forms of garbage. Leaves are of particular value and for this reason should not be burned. The compost may stand for a year or two and furnishes a good supply of enriched soil, valuable for potting house plants, for hotbeds or cold frames, or for re-use in the garden. It is important that victory gardners conserve all plant food for future use.

WUcU yau&uq. li/Uk I WAR BONDS | No More Brass On land or at sea our fighting men do their many chores by the sound of a bugle. All sorts of uncomplimentary epithets are used to designate the bugler, but nobody has yet been able to provide a satisfactory substitute for a bugle although recordings are used at some permanent bases.

STATE SUPERINTENDENT ASKS SCHOOLS BE FREE OF PROPAGANDA Warning against allowing propaganda in the schools, through guest speakers or collateral reacting matter inspired by selfish interests and pressure groups, Dr. Clement T. Malan, state superintendent of public instruction, in a bulletin to all 1,200 school administrators in Indiana, has asked that children be protected against “tainted ideas” as thoroughly as against taintedi food. “Too many public officials forget that their job is to administer public affairs in the interest of the whole public; and they embark on careers as crusaders, or fall victims of pressure groups and cunning propaganda designed ‘to deceive the very elect’, and the unwary,’ the bulletin points out. “Os course, it is not the obvious and crude sort of propaganda, but rather the many attractive publications, skillfully prepared to give bias or misinformation, that endanger the integrity of our schools and their teaching. We would also warn against allowing various polished public speakers to address the convocations of school children, unless their records and motives have previously been carefully scrutinized. As school administrators, it is' our public responsibility to detect and eliminate all kinds of subtle, insidious propaganda . that would inculcate false political or economic philosophies into our teaching program, or throw false light on facts, or give misinformation,” Dr. Malan says. MRS. IDA WALTERS TO ENTERTAIN MEMBERS NAPPANEE WOMAN’S CLUB Members of the Nappanee Woman’s Club will be entertained on Tuesday, Sept. 7th at the home of Mrs. Ida Walters. The topic for the day will be “Notable Women of the United States”. Response to roll call will be vacationing at Home”.
