Miss Minnie Dell Kell has a host

learning she, by a series of oper
ations at an Atlanta hospital, is
having her feet made over, as it
were, having been seriously handi
capped by an accidental burn when a
child. She has had to give ud many
a childhood and girlhood pleasure,
on account of her feet, and we feel
so thankful to know the doctors feel
they will be able to fix her like a
new person. She is smart, and a
sweet, good girl, and has finished
school at Martin Institute, then took
a business course, even with this
draw back; so we feel now with the
will power she has already shown,
she will be able to climb to greater
heights; and we will be waiting and
hoping that she may accomplish
great things yet.
In the passing of Mrs. J. T. Hol
land recently, we feel we have again
lost a friend. One by one they drop
off and leave us, but it is sweet to
remember their love was ever true.
Mrs. Holland was a good wife and
mother, and lived an unassuming
life at the home near Hurricane
Shoals. Her eight grown sons and
daughters all had gone to homes of
their own, and she and Mr. Holland
were seemingly so happy, “growing
old together,” and always there,
ready to mother the children as they
came to see them; but the shock of
losing her loved companion was too
great for her frail constitution, and
seemed she grew weaker, with less
to live for, and so soon she went to
join him.
The evening comes at last, serene
and mild,
When after the long day of life
Together down they sink to sleep,
Together freed, their gentle spirits
fly.
To scenes of bliss, where love im
mortal reigns.

BROWN REGARDS SCREEN
DANGER AS PART OF JOB
The perils of being a western star
are well known to Johnny Mack
Brown, who is one of the top-notch
ers in the field. It’s a matter of
“survival of the fittest,” and fans
who see him in “Guns in the Dark,”
a Repubic reease playing at the
Roosevelt Theatre Saturday, will
agree that it takes a hardy man to
withstand the rigors of “hoss op
era” production.
Insurance rates are so high on
action and stunt actors that Johnny
considers his policy his most ex
pensive “luxury.” So far he has re
ceived no injury more serious than
a sprained wrist in his screen es
capades, but each scene presents a
new peril which must be met with
fortitude and humor.
Claire Rochelle plays opposite
Brown in the production, and intro
duces to the screen anew and dis
tinctive type of beauty.
