© NEWB-WEES MUSSOLINI GREETS YOUNGEST RECRUITS IN ITALIAN ARMY , At a national celebration of the entrance of Italy on the aide of the Allies in the World War, 21 years ago, II Due* receives the acclaim of the young Libyan Fascists in Rome. Some of the future warriors lined up for military in* spection are only six years old. 11 Duce declares: “Italy will go on!” as the recruits from Italy’s North African colony hold their guns aloft. LILA LEE STAGES SCREEN COMEBACK WITH WM. POWELL Dolly Madison Theatre Monday and Tuesday, June 22 and 23. “I need work to keep me out of mischief.” Lila Lee smiled impish ly. “I’m entirely too restless to be idle.” Miss Lee was discussing her first motion picture role in more than a year. The popular star of silent films looked particularly lovely in the crisp whitq uniform she wore as William Powell’s office nurse in RKO Radio production, “The Ex- Mrs. Bradford,” co-starring Jean Arthur with Powell. Miss Lee’s return to films is not exactly a conlejback campaign. Since her last Hollywood films, made in 1934, she has appeared in the stage play, “Lady Jane.” Since returning from New York, Miss Lee has established a dress shop business in Hollywood with Patsy Ruth Miller, as a partner. “It has a lot of fun,” she confined. “The only trouble is that I want to wear all of the new crea tions myself.” The actress looked so slim and svelte that some comment about her fetching figure seemed inevit able. “Oh yes,” she said candidly, “I weigh about 124 pounds now, and,” she added, “I’m tall, almost five feet seven inches.” When she was starring in silent) films from 1926 to 1929, Miss Lee weighed 115 pounds, and most of her friends told her she was too thin. Certainly she never looked better than she does on the screen in “The Ex-Mrs. Bradford.” James Gleason, Robert Armstrong Dolly Madison Monday-Tuesday, June 22-23rd P - gM A deft and deadly duel of wilt, dark with mystery, keen with satire, exciting with events I a With JAMCS OLIASON, MIC ■ LOM/ ROSIRT ARMSTRONG, Ilia Laa, Orant Mltchall, Irln O'Srlan - Maara, Ralph Margan ~ Directed by STEPHEN ROBERTS RKO-RADIO PICTURE No iw«wnfaig matinee Monday; morn ing matinee Tuesday 10:30; after-, noons Monday-Tuesday 3:15-3:45 j evenings 7:34-9:15.

C. UNIQUE FILM AT DOLLY MADISON SAT. The Call of the Wild is Echoed in the Love of a Girl and a Man. Rated as one of the most unusual film offerings of the year, “Two in Revolt” at the Dolly Madison Thea tre Saturday strikes a new note in picture entertainment. The story interweaves two dis tinct themes, each dramatically ' powerful enough to stand alone. One thread of narrative presents the ad ventures of a dog and a Montana ranch. The remarkable drama of i their struggle for existence after both take to the mountains furnish es many unforgettable moments. The parallel theme is the con flicting romance between a young trainer and a wealthy horsO breed er’s daughter which only finds an ultimate solution when the heroic horse trained by the suitor evolves into a racing champion. The animal cast, which numbers a herd of wild hordes, a pack of wolves, a big bear and other quad rupeds, is headed by Lightning, a German shepherd dog, the grand son of Strongheart, and Warrior, a pedigre d stallion. The human cast is composed of John Arledge and Louise Latimer, : recruited from the Broadway foot | lights, in the romantic leads, and j Moroni Olsen, Harry Jans and Willie 1 Best. “Two in Revolt,” RKO Radio Picture, was directed by Glenn T ’’-Ton. _______ 100,000 DIE IN U. S. ACCIDENTS IN 1935 Carelessness Also Costs America $3,450,000,000 Front Total Income. Chicago, June 11—American care lessness in 1935 footed up to a loss of 100,000 lives and a $3,450,000,000 slice from the total income, the na tional safety council reported today. In addition, 9,340,000 persons suf fered non-fatal injuries. The. council’s averages showed 274 persons killed every day of the year by accidents. It estimated the total daily cost for lost income, doc tors’ bills, hospital fees and the ov erhead cost of insurance] alone at $9,500,000. Second most dangerous spot for Americans last year was the home. A total of 31,500 deaths in acci dents there the council said “indi cated members of American fami lies, without apparent concern for loss of life, moved blithely about their homes—tumbling down stairs, falling out of windows, drowning themselves, getting cut and burned, dying by the thousands.” Home ac cidents permanently disabled 140,- 000; injured 4,460,000. Other major accidental causes of death were listed: Public accidents lncluding drowning, burns, falls, heat prostra tion, deaths by freezing, railroad, firearms, poisoning cost 18,000 lives, permanently disabled 60,000 persons and temporarily disabled 2,- 100,000. Occupational accidents 16,500 lives, 63,000 permanently disabled and injuries to 1,340,000. In the occupational group, work on or connected with the farm caus ed more fatalities than any other classification of employment with a 4,400 total. Trade and service in dustries listed 4,000 deaths; con struction operations 2,500; mining and other extractive work 1,600 deaths. From the ranks of persons in their most productive years, between the ages of 25 and 64, accidents claimed the largest quota had 47,800 dead. The “65 or more” classification was second with 24,600. Motor vehicle accidents constitut ed the greatest accidental destroyer of life in all age groups excep child ren less than five years and the eldest in age. Falls led in the latter i classification. I \ The general total was a slight re-! 1 duction under the council’s aggre- j i gate for 1934 101,139 and rep-'] resented in its accident frequency ] i rate (based on disabling injuries perjj million man-hours of exposure)—]' a 61 percent reduction from the fig- 1 ] ures of 1926, the council said. o The Asheville Farm School in ] Buncombe County cut and stored a j fine crop of hay from 20 acres of i alfalfa last week and will top-dress ] the land with superphosphate. o Advertise In The Person County Times 1 B "THE GENUINE ARTICLE" B There ore two kinds of courtesy m modem business. One, is politeness,i V pmSB which is good. The other, is "the genuine article," which is better. *’ To the Norfolk and Western Railway Family, courtesy means more than mere W I politeness. It means friendliness toward the manufacturer and the farmer along wS33 fh« railroad's lines, and toward the traveler. It means a sincere interest in their . P; 4 problems. It means a sincere desire to serve them faithfully and efficiently.' jSSB And it means a sincere appreciation for their patronage. This is "the genuine article." It is genuine because it springs from something deeper than simply the desire to sell freight and passenger service. Employees of the Norfolk and Western Railway—all the way through the E£~3 £9 yanks—have grown up with the railroad and the territory it traverses. The K£9 'KSSi roilroad's success is their success. Its achievements are their achievements. BESS And in its progress, and the progress of Norfolk and Western territory, they have ‘.IVgRMB a real pride. These are the elements of the spirit of the Norfolk and Western '’SEES R 29 Family. And, from this spirit, comes Norfolk and Western courtesy. 'R fiuSl So, when you ship or travel over the Norfolk and Western, you will get more BE5b EZjS than mere politeness. You will get that which distinguishes the NorfoA and ■ NORFOLK RAILWAY ■ Those Who Eat It Once Keep On Eating It •> PASCHALLQ PRIDE BREAD U MADE with Milk ’N Honey VWWWVWYWWVWbWWWtAWUWrtAAWVWWWWVW/YWVI I 1 Dolly Madison Theatre ADVANCE PROGRAM From Wednesday, June 17th through Thursday, June 25th |!
