She won seven ont of eight starts, including the Hambletonian Stake at Goshen, N. Y. "NIGHT WAITRESS” AT DOLLY MADISON Playing Here For One Day Only, Wed., Jan 6th. Classed by experienced Travelers as one of the most colorful spots in the San Francisco’s famous embarcadero forms the setting for much of RKO Radio’s new adven ture film, “Night Waitress.” With its Spanish meaning of the “goingaway place,” the embarcadero is literally just that, a broad strip running between the city and the bay on which about the wharves where freight and passenger steam ers, lumber schooners and tramp vessels of every description land their cargoes and sail away for ports all over the seven seas. Along the landward side stretches a heterogenous array of warehous es, wholesale establishments, cases, sailors’ lodging houses, factories, pawnshops and cheap-clothing stores, all echoing to the rattle of winches on the opposite piers and the hoarse bellow of whistles from the bay. And across its broad area from Tel egraph Hill southward drifts one of the most variegated crowds in the world sailors, tourists, long shoremen, gamblers, business men, adventurers from every country on the globe. Against this background is play ed the exciting action of the picture its hero the owner of a small schooner, its heroine in the title role as a “night waitress” at a seafood case Margot Grahame, the noted British actress, and Gordon Jones, former gridiron star, enact these roles, which lead them through thrill ing adventures with the police and a desperate gang of crooks to a surprise conclusion. Vinton Haworth, Arthur Loft, Billy Gilbert, Otto Yamaoka and Marc Laurence have the principal supporting roles. Lew Landers di rected.

Supreme Court Escapes “Villian” Dolly Madison Theatre, Thursday and Friday December 31st, January Ist. If John Carradine, Twentieth Century-Fox player, currently ap pearing in “Laughing At Trouble,” which opens today at the Dolly Madison theatre, had followed an early ambition there might have been a “Villain” sitting on the Su preme Court bench. John, who is the screen’s master of dark and evil deeds, at one time cherished the ambition that he might be the chief justice of the United States. His talents, however, took a queer turn that led him away from juris prudence to a career as the most hateful man in fildom. In “Laughing At Trouble,” John plays a vicious and corrupt deputy sheriff, who opposes Jane Darwell, a hard-headed, soft-hearted news paper editor who solves everyone else’s troubles while smiling away her ©wn. Sara Haden, Lois Wilson, Mar garet Hamilton and Pert Kelton are also featured in the cast. Darryl F. Zanuck, Twentieth Cen tury-Fox Production Chief, select ed Frank R.

PLAN BETTER FEED FOR DAIRY COWS A good New Year’s resolution for dairy farmers is recommended by John A. Arey, extension dairy specialist at State College: “Let’s begjiti l(he year right by resolving to give our dairy cows good care and plenty of good feed all through the year.” Uncomfortable cows fed on ra tions that are deficient in quality and quantity cannot produce all the good, rich milk they should, he emphasized. “We don’t expect efficient service from work stock housed in uncom fortable quarters and fed barely a ‘maintenance ration,’ ” he said. “Why expect more of a dairy cow which has a more difficult function to perform and is less able to stand adverse weather than animals car rying more flesh? “Let us resolve further that dur ing the year our cows will receive an adequate amount of a good grain mixture properly balanced with the roughage in their diet.” If the supply of roughage for this winter is short, resolve that this shall not happen again, Arey urg ed. Figure out how much roughage will be needed next winter, then plant enough legumes and silagfe crops to supply the herd. There should be at least two tons of hay and four tons of silage for each mature cow in the bam. Non-leguminous crops such as com stover, grass hays, and the like may be used to supplement the le gumes, Arey pointed out, but should not be used as a complete substi tute for them. Since high production is an in herited characteristic, all dairy farmers should resolve to use only good production bred bulls, and to test both dams and daughters to determine the ability of the bull to transmit high producing capacity to his daughters. o J. C. Lynn, farm agent, reports that several Mitchell County farm ers plan tp dig trench silos next spring to help solve the winter feeding problem. mmmm pi 1 bmmb ' i 11 iSiSS muM ft 5 »>> >> :t •{" ; NBssSMgBBBsg- ffiiffiffmllffli* ffflf ml wl fmlili! s ' •-• * ; « : BRyf M&Jt- 'S i i >MBiiil]liaiL-& is Si i B BliffifißliHiffiliffiiW# <; f<" alf3fc • Ik -41 I S Hi Ullli m I I %llh $ i H ifISI H i jjlj juti B jjj This is a message you wiH like to hear! *, j ||H , The latest slash in YOUR Electric rate brings YOU m 1 v j the enjoyment of ALL Electric, Services at the LOW- J3E jfjn Here S Your K EST cost YOU have ever had!

CHEVROLET While the proper maintenance of a car’s battery and electric system will do much to assure quick start ing in the winter months, ther e are also a few simple suggestions which all drivers will find helpful, says a bulletin issued this week by Chev rolet. “Remember,” says the bulletin, “that the battery has two functions: one, to operate the starting motor, and two, to furnish the spark. The engine always turns over harder in cold weather, and unless the bat tery is in good condition, there may not be enough current left, while the starter is operating, to provide the necessary spark. “Operation of the starter places a heavy load on the battery, and so PAY YOUR PERSONAL PROPERTY AND POLL TAXES AT ONCE! If you don’t pay them at once we will have to levy. Please attend to it today. M. T. CLAYTON, Sheriff. every precaution should be taken to assure the quickest start once the starter is depressed. One way of doing this is to turn the engine over two or three times with the starter before switching on the igni tion. This preloads the combustion chambers with gasoline mixture, and the engine usually starts the mo ment the ignition is turned on. “Thei throttle should be opened slightly throughout the operation, but not far enough to make the engine race when it starts. “In cars with manually-operated choke, it is an easy matter to find the precise point to which the choke should be opened for winter start ing. Once the engine is started, close the choke slightly to prevent dilu tion of crankcase oil through ad mission of raw gasoline. “Never under any circumstances should the warm-up process be hur ried by racing the engine. The rea sons for this is that lubricants flow slowly when the engine is cold, and THURSDAY, DECEMBER 31ST, 1935 they should have a chance to warm up before the engine is subjected to higher speeds.” Dolly Madjson Monday-Tuesday, Jan. 4-stli been waiting for.
