In Memoriam
In loving memory of our hus
band and father, ‘Mr. R. M. Par
nelle, who passed away one year
ago today, March 13, 1934.
Dear Father you have left us,
And your smile we see no more:
Our hearts are filled with sadness
For no time can heal that sore.
More and more each day we miss
you,
Friends all think the wound is
healed,
But they little know the sorrow
That’s in our hearts concealed.
,
’
We often sit and think of you,
When we are all alone,
For memory is the only friend,
That grief can call its own.
What is home without our daddy?
All the things a world may send
For when we lost our Daddy,
We lost our dearest friend.
,
He wore the crown of patience,
Through the years he struggled
on.
And those hands that rest forever
Are the hands that made our
home.
Soft and brightAhe Stars are shin
ing,
Spreading o'er a lonely grave,
Where lies the one we loved so
dearly,
Whom we tried so hard but
could not save.

ATTRACTIONS AT I
STRAND THEATRE!
Comedy, that is said to be the
most uproariously funny that has |
come out of Hollywood in many a
long day, will be forthcoming on
the screen of the Strand Theatre,;
when the new First National pic
ture, “Convention City,’’ with a
splendid all-star cast is shown next
Monday and Tuesday.
The story by Peter Milne, pre
sents an extraordinaryly unique
idea ’ dealiu « w ^i riotous happen
mgs durin S a salesmen’s annual
-i amdoree at Atlantic City, friend
wife is likely to sit up and take
notice if her husband happens to
be one of those who attends con
ventions without her.
The action is said to be fast
and furious, beginning with the
assembling of the salesmen and i
following them through a week of j
riotous escapades to a smashing!
climax in which a hotel, as well
as reputations, is nearly wrecked.
The dialogue by Robert Loyd is
said to be lively and sparkling, i
and the situations hilarious with
its multiple entanglements.
There is an all star cast headed
by Joan Blondell as a gold digging
chorus girl who dotes on conven
tions. Others include Adolphe
Menjou, Dick Powell, Mary Astor,
Guy Kibbee, Frank McHugh, Pa
tricia Ellis, Ruth Donnelly, Hugh
Herbert, Hobart Cavanaugh, Grant
Mitchell and Gordon Westcott.
As an added attraction we will
have Walt Disney’s “Three Little
Pigs.’’
In the picture, “Female,’’ Ruth
Chatterton, as the president of
the world's largest automobile fac
otry, turns in a splendid perform
ance. Casting aside the sophisti
cation of former pictures, she per
formers with more action and less
talk. The story concerns her hard
hearetd methods of running the
business left by her father. Out
side of the office she is like any
other woman but fails to con
vince her gentlemen friends, who
she invites from the office, of that
fact. After many difficulties she
finally wins over George Brent
and the fadeous shows him help
ing her save the business from
the rocks. There is plenty of
good comedy.
On the stage, Edward A. Reno
will present his “Shower of Hits”
with singing, dancing and com
edy.

Bennett and an all-star cast will
