The Flavor Lasts J. TrESET CERTIFICATE PRESENTED TO MANAGER OF PRINCESS V J M 11 11 On Saturday evening, as a token of appreciation of the loyal and pa triotic conduct of the management of the Princess Theatre in extending to the government the use of the theatre for the Four Minute speeches made under direction of the Bu reau of Information, Mr. v . l Swindell, chairman of the Four Minute Men of the Second Judicial district, presented to Mr. Jim Wood ard, the clever and popular manager of the Princess Theatre, a large and handsomely lithographed poster and certificate. The poster contains the picture of Independence Hall at Philadelphia and in the foreground, in an attitude of proclamation, Is a nip.tiire of one of the natriots 01 the early days, probably one of the famous Minute Men of the Revolu tion. The poster announces in huge black type "4 Minute Men A Mes sage from Washington," and at tached to the poster is a certificate reading "This Theatre has been ap pointed by the government to re ceive these' official messages. The privilege of its stage has been granted exclusively to the Four Minute Men." In his presentation address Mr Swindell referred to the never fail ing courtesy and co-operation of the management of the theatre to and with the Four Minute Men. He briefly enumerated the various cam paigns conducted by this government organization in this theatre and in the Globe Theatre, the Liberty Loan the Red Cross, the Y. M. C. A. drives having received special attention. Mr. Swindell stated that it was be lieved by some, for awhile, that the Four Minute speeches, coming as they did between pictures and on oc casions when people were out for entertainment and amusement, were displeasing to some of the patrons, and that it had been reported that the Princess was losing patronage thereby. He said, "The people of Wilson are an unselfish, patriotic and appreciative people, not the kind to be peeved at having to hear short talks once or twice a week, especially when such talks are di rectly inspired by our own govern ment, and as a proof of what I say a positive and complete refutation of the notion that the Princes is losing patronage I want you to look at this audience. Here he waived his hand over the hall whose every seat was filled with a patron of the Princess. The speaker stated that two certi ficates would be presented in Wil son, the other to the manager of the Globe Theatre, S. H. Vick. This cer tificate will be presented to the Globe on Monday evening. Mr. Jim Woodard, manager of the Princess, in accepting the poster and certificate re-dedicated his thea tre to the use of his government and again pledged his personal co-operation with the Four Minute Men.
