LADIES POUND “NEW PREACHER” At the Methodist Parsonage on Thanksgiving night, u large number of the members of the church and their friends, called to give an impromptu reception to the ‘new preacher.” This took the form of an old-fashioned “pounding,” and an exceedingly gener ous pantry shower it was. The ladies of the local circles served a salad course during the evening, and a de lightful social hour was spent. Times and customs may change hut the tender relationship that exists be tween pastor and people will always find expression upon the part of the latter In sharing their material bless ings with those who have given their entire lives to the ministry, ns the “Shepherd of their souls.” And there are some things that existed in the old days when folks had time to be good neighbors, that Winder insists on re taining. and will never willingly die. HUGE MENAGERIE IN TARZAN FILM In the picture ‘The Revenge of Tar *aii" which name was substituted for 'the book name of “The Return of Tar zan” which comes to the Stran The ater next Monday. December sth. there are many thrilling moments. Nine lions, five leopards, fifteen apes, six tigers, two ehampanzees. two elephants and twenty-flour monkeys constitute the animalistic contribution to “The Revenge of Tarzan,” and in some of the scenes ten or more animals, of va ried specie were used and it was in episodes that had peculiar mix hps. In a scene in which Gene Pollar as Tarzan drops from among a group of apes, nestling in trees, to the ground and has his bare handed fight against the lion, it required hours upon hours to induce the apes to remain quiet in I the presence of the jungle king. Again when Tarzan rides off on the I head of his elephant, the huge beast ! scenting the lion, balked and tore off through the under brush and several days were spent trying to accustom the elephant to the lion. The two fights between Tarzan and the lions were staged just as shown on the screen. A well trained lion with teeth and talons untampered with, actually battled with Tarzan and of course, permitted the man to win and at a word from its trainer, “played dead” just as a trained dog would— with the result that a most unusual ef fect is achieved. Tonight, Thursday, Wallace Reid will be shown at the Strand in “The Valley of The Giant.” This is said to be a great picture and this popular screen star is shown to good advan tage.
