Stars Take Over Wanoca Programs With Full Bill, “San Francisco,” which op ens Monday at the Wanoca Theatre, promises to become orne of the most talked-about pictures in many, many months. First, it teams three of the most popular screen stars for the first time — Clark Gable, Jeanette MacDonald and Spen cer Tracy. It is a picture brim ming with romance, love, come dy, beautiful music and excite ment. Clark Gable offers one of his greatest characterizations as Blackie Norton, owner of the most popular resort on the Coast. Jeanette MacDonald is superb as the country girl who starts her singing career on the Barbary Coast and rises to greatest operatic heights, only to return to the Coast because of the man she loves. Spencer Tracy scores in an unusual role as a kindly priest who chooses the wicked street for his evan-j gelistic work. Dramatization of the gang land law of preservation makes it a dangerous romance that' joins Margaret Callahan withj Richard Dix, in the latter’s! starring picture, “Special Inves tigator.” The attractive brunette ac tress appears as the sister of a dhngerous racketeer. Her ro mance with Dix is tuned to the j blast of automatics when her[ brother’s henchmen learn that! the latter is a secret Govern-; ment agent. It was pecularily fortunate j that when Metro-Goldwyn-May-j er determined to produce the picture called “His Brother’s Wife,” W. S. Van Dyke was available to direct it. The picture opens next week with Hollywood’s most roman tic team, Barbara Stanwyck and Robert Taylor, heading a re markably fine cast. Van Dyke, of course, is a vet eran not only of the camera but of jungle adventure, and “His Brother’s Wife” is a drama of the tropic wilderness. Robert Taylor, right now the screen’s most • popular young star of the masculine ranks, has a daring role that he portrays with the daring it demands. He appears as a scientific explorer who falls in love with a beau tiful red-headed girl on his last fling in civilizatiton. His brother urges the boy to forget the girl and carry on with his expedition. He agrees and in her rebellion the girl marries the brother. Retum from the jungle the fever-haun ted explorer finds himself in love with his brother’s wife. It would not be justice to re veal the climax but you may bo assured that Taylor takes the girl back into the jungle with him. And there, in a desper ate struggle against the mys terious forces of nature, he saves her life and wins her love. Kenansville Happenings Mrs. J. 0.

Burgess of Raleigh,! vice president of United, Dry; Forces of North Carolina, has devoted to the fight against the liquor traffic more than half | his time. He has never accu-i mulated any financial surplus, i and has made several sacrifices! to carry on the work, and has actually applied for loans on his life insurance policies to carry on the work at this cri tical time. He is unwilling to permit the cause of the organ ization to suffer, but an organ- ^ izat'ion cannot be maintained and an effective fight cannot be made without financial suport. j “The re-establishment of bar, rooms and saloons in N. C. isj tragic. If even a small number j of those who profess to be j Christians and those who j should be interested in their homes and their children would put forth any effort pro hibition could not only be re tained but enforced effectively in North Carolina. The sale of | intoxicating drinks in our State [either legally or illegally, is a challenge to our citizenship. When ever a majority of our citizens desire to prevent this great evil, liquor will be out lawed and prohibit effective ly. Will North Carolinians fight for their homes and chil dren or will they surrender! them to the forces'of debauch-j ery and destruction,” says Cale; Burgess. What will Duplin County do ? | Are we willing for Cale Bur gess to do the worlc and make the sacrifices he is making for the cause at large while we sit with folded hands, closed lips, and closed purses and not rally to his aid to crush the evil that is wrecking more homes, lives, i businesses, breaking more hearts, disgracing righteous j ness and advancing poverty land the cause of the devil more than anything else on earth? -Are Christians praying for the cause? We need prayer bands in every church for the drunk ards and liquor dealers. We need money to finance the State i and County work. Could we not 'find one hundred people in this big County who will send to ;C. E. Quinn, Kenansville, Coun ty Treasurer for Dry Force work, one big dollar? Who will be first? Send it now and don’t wait. Those who can’t send a dollar, send less. Pastors, will you help get this work on the hearts of your people? It is greatly effecting our churches.

Three sets of buyers give Whiteville the greatest facility in market ing the farmers’ tobacco.
