Aberdeen, North CaroHna Friday, January 16, 193* F^ineHurst The Pinehurst Christian Endeavor Society held a banquet in the base* ment of the new church on Tuesday evening. These occasions are always enjoyed immensely but with turkey aa part of the menu and R. E. Denny as toastmaster, this proved the most pifeasant banquet of the season.

S. Mudge of Philadelphia was the speaker at the morning ser vice in the Community Church. His talk; “The Church—The Sanctuary” was a most interesting one, and was greatly enjoyed by all present. At the 8:00 o’clock service another inter esting talk, “Living at Concert Pitch” was delivered by the pastor, the Rev. W. M. McLeod. 595 THE NEW ESSEX' SUPER SI X yCooib or Buiinesf C o p e Most cars today give you good per formance and good looks.

For the benefit of those who were not there it must again be noted' that the “Churchman’s Dinner” is an annual affair fathered by Tom Kelley, led and fed by Andy Creamer, graced by the presence of many ministers, and attracting not only churchmen but many without church affiliation. So, this last Thursday night, just one hundred men responded to the in vitation for the dinner and for nearly two hours enjoyed not only the hospi tality of the famous Highland Pines Inn but real oratory. Host Creamer, seated at the head of the long table and flanked by Editor Joe Chappie of the National Magazine, Bishop Frank DuMoulin, the Rev. T. A. Cheatham, the Rev. Craighill Brown and Bion H. Butler, introduced the speakers of the evening in his usual happy vein. Following the opening prayer by the Rev. J. Fred Stimson, the gather ing sang one of Tom Kelley’s famous compilations and Mr. Creamer call ed upon Father Dillon, who was fol lowed in turn by Dr. A. McNeill Blaii, C. L. Hayes, and Charles Macauley. Following more music and song Bion Butler spoke on the value of the church in civilization; Bishop Frank DuMoulin, of Philadelphia, gave a rousing talk on the values of adver sity and optimism, and Joe Chappie a stirring address on human fellow ship. Truly cosmo>politan was the gath ering at this noteworthy event in the life of the Sandhills, men from nearly every state in the union, representa tives of every profession and' of big business and little business, men still active in their affairs, and men re tired from active business but all responding to the keynote of good fellowship and hospitality. Unique in this year’s dinner was the chorus '*f girls from the Southera Pines school, led by Tom Kelley. PINEBLUFF Mrs. William Carpenter and Mrs. Herman Pickier were hostesses at j a kitchen shower Friday aftemoon from 3 to 5 o’clock in honor of Mrs. Lawton Foushee, a recent bride. Af ter the guest arrived two contests were enjoyed, then towels were giv en to each of the guests to hem. These were then presented to Mrs. Foushee. After the refreshments were served, an express wagon full of kit chen utensils was presented to the bride. Those enjoying the occasion were Misses Jessie McCaskill, Velma Parker, Henrietta Risley, Madge Pickier, Daisy Tyner, Wilda Giggee and Fay Lampley, Mesdames Dwight Troutman, Wade Thompson, Ollie Ad- cox, Cecil Farrell, Fred Monroe and Mrs, Foushee. Charles Houghton of Springfield, Ohio is spending some time with his sister, Mrs. R. A. Smith. Mr. and Mrs. Joe Townsend spent last Thursday in Greensboro: While Mr. TouTisend was attending to bus iness, our librarian, Mrs. Townsend, was the guest of Mrs. Nellie Rowe.

Miller and three chil dren of Winston-Salem arrived Tues day to be the guest of Mrs. Miller’s sister, Mrs. M. F. Butner. At Pinehurst Grin you Grinners! A gangling lad from Arkansas tips his hat to a reign ing monarch of the underworld—and things start to happen. Jack Oakie in his newest comedy, “The Gang Buster,” which is scheduled for the Pinehurst Theatre this Friday, does his wise-cracking in the dives of gangdom, and shoots a big city full of laughs. The hard-boiled crooks of the big town take Jake for a ride, and he likes it! Here’s comedy encas ed in melodrama and there’s romance, with lovely Jean Arthur who pro\ed her ability in “The Greene Murder Case” and both the “Dr. Manchu” stories, and with William Boyd, who fought Gary Cooper in “The Spoil ers” to a standstill, and stood George Bancroft on his ear in ‘^Derelict.” Picture Oakie trying to fight it out with Boyd! It’s hilarious and hys teric ! “The Gang Buster” is a “Gloom Buster.” V: vacious—saucy—thrilling—hilar ious—a riot of mirth and romance! Such is the description of “The Bach elor Father” in which Marion Davies achieves the finest performance of her talkie career and which comes co the Pinehurst Theatre Monday night, January 19tb. As the madcap, viva cious and pugnacious little Hogan’s I Allej^ herione of the Edward Childs Carpenter play. Miss Davies regis ters a characterization iperfect in every respect and delightful to be hold. C. Aubrey Smith, noted Brit ish stage star, who created the ti tle role in the original David Belasco production, repeats his charmingly blustery performance in the screen version. Ralph Forbes is splendid in the romantic lead and others in this capable cast are Guinn Williams, I Doris Lloyd, David Torrence and Nena Quartaro. The glory and grandeur of the Old West, the absorbing romance of the pioneers, the thrills of the trail-blaz ers, the gripping drama of the plains, the sheer scenic beauty of the back grounds that have never been seen by a white man until a little more than a year ago, all combine to make “The Painted Desert,” starring Bill Boyd, which is coming to the Pine hurst Theatre Wednesday night, Jan uary 21st, a wonder picture. No more I virile and dramatic story of the great :outdoors has ever been presented on the audible screen. Pictured in Din osaur Canyon, located on the Indian Reservation in Arizona, the produc tion fairly reeks with exciting sequen ces. Supporting Bill Boyd is a wonder ful cast including that old favorite of the silent screen, William Farnum, and Helen Twelvetress, J. Farrell Macdonald and others.

At Southern Pines That nut comedy team, Bert Wheel er and Robert Woolsey are coming to the Southern Pines Theatre this | Thursday, Friday and Saturday in j their new delirous rib-tickler, “Hook,! Line and Sinker.” Of course it’s funny! It goes without saying, with such a battery of professional fun- makers ^contributing to the story's hilarious success. This comedy team | can point to four positive “hits” since they entered the talkie field—“Rio Rita,” “The ^Cuckoos,”' “Half Shot At Sunrise,” and ‘‘Dixiana.” In the leading feminine role is Dorothy Lee, who combines charm, rare beauty with a hoydenish comedy flair. Joby- na Howland, with a comedy history of more than twenty years, inspires bursts of laughter whenever she ap- pears on the screen. She is six-feet- three in her French heels. Those “Caught Short” gals are here with another laugh riot. Which is one way of announcing that Marie Dress ier and Polly Moran are coming to the Southern Pines Theatre Monday, Tues day and Wednesday in their new comedy, “Reducing.” In the same manner that the stock market served as the subject of fun in “Caught Short,” so are beauty parlors, their proprietors and their patrons used as the subjects of the lampoons in the 1 new attraction. The fun starts the i minute Marie climbs aboard a Pull man car with her husband, Lucien Littlefield, her daughter, Anita Page, and her two mischievous sons, Billy Naylor and Jay Ward, the latter the § cute mascot of the American Legion | i | Paris convention. Laughs continue to j ^ mount when Marie goes into her sis-1 ter’s beauty parlor.
