But now he’s having his inn ings, and winning the fair lady in every picture he He’s a re formed villian. But time was, some years ago, when Ralj>h was the fair-haired boy and always faded the descending curtain with the heroine clasped in his arms. Those were the days when Ralph was a footlights actor. But the movies changed all that. In 1932 he joined the movies and in spite of his long record as a stage lover, filmland cast him as a villian and a villian he remained for near ly four years. But that’s all over now. He’s a regular hero now, and has been for his past few pictures. Right now he’s featured with Fay Wray in Columbia’s “Roaming Lady,” to show at the Dolly Madison Theatre on July Bth.

Admiasion 10-26 c SUTTER’S GOLD AT DOLLY MADISON To Play Here on Monday and Tues day, July 6th and 7th. The turning Doint in the exist ence of California was the discov ery of gold by James Marshall near Sutter’s Mill on January 24, 1848. The same incident provides a cli max for “Sutter’s Gold” the Uni versal drama at the Palace theatre Monday and Tuesday, July 6 and 7 starring Edward Arnold as John Sutter. Marshall rode at breakneck speed to tell Sutter of his fatbful discov ery. But he did not realize the des truction that was to follow, envelop ing a peaceful land of bounteous crops. Almost imiriejdiately, news of the discovery leaked out although Sut ter tried to keep it secret. Men de serted thair posts in tanneries, mills and fields, answering the siren song of gold. Soldiers at Fort Sut ter joined the throng, tearing apart the buildings to get wood for their sluice boxes. From all over the United States an increasing horde of daring men began the journey to California and Sutter’s gold. Early in 1849 the first vessel to carry treasure hunters from the eastern seaboard entered the har bor of San Francisco. From that time on, other ships followed at fre quent intervals. Even earlier the first wagon trains had started thq long trek a cross country. Soon there was an almost unbroken stream of wagons strung out for hundreds of miles, all making their way to the gold fields. Gold seekers trampled waving crops under foot, taking forcible possession of any land which might hold gold. California was in the grip of The Great Madness, and there followed a period of lawlessness that destroyed Sutter’s holdings. This is the background for much of the action of “Sutter’s Gold,” di rected by James Cruze. The cast supporting Edward Arnold includes Lee Tracy, Binnie Barnes, Katherine Alexander, Addison Richardson, Montague Love, John Miljan, Mit chell Lewis and thousands of ex tras. o ATTRND FUNERAL OF REV J.

DOLLY MADISON HAS JOHNNY MAC BROWN FOR JULY FOURTH His Latest Western “Valley of the Lawless” to Play One Day. Johnny Mack Brown confesses that he has never played a role more to his liking than that of Bruce Reynolds, in his latest West ern, “Valley of tha Lawless,” which comes to the Palace Theatre in July 4th. Dramatically, the newspaper critics who previewed the) produc tion agree that it is the best thing he has ever done, and unquestion ably the character demands and re ceives more sympathy than most of his former screen successes. What Johnny really enjoys is the strenu ous demands made upon his athletic Prowess. He loves the rough stuff, and gets a tremendous kick out of the fistic battles in which he is obliged to engage, to say nothing of his amazing horsemanship stunts. But the more discriminating among his numerous admirers will probably remember the picture not only for Johnny’s tremendously ef fective fist battles and lightning gunplay, but because of the pity they will feel for him when false deductions and a rival’s treachery induce the girl he; loves to believe that he is the murderer of both her father and grandfather. It is in the scenes showing the conflict of emo tions racking the star’s mind that he wins popular approval for hia tense visualization of various moods, ranging from hate to love, and longing for just revenge. But indeed, all through the picture John ny Mack Brown furnishes satisfac tory evidence that he is as talented a thespian as he is a noted athlete. And must be given the com petent support he receives from his colleagues. o RECORDS HEP GROWERS QUALIFY Those Participating in New Farm Program Need Records of Crops. . Farmers participating in the new farm program to keep records of the soil-conserving crops they grow and the soil-building practices they carry out. The records will be a means of providing they are entitled to soil building payments, said Dean I. O. Schaub, director of the State Col lege extension service. He pointed out that it is particu larly important that farmers keep records showing the acreage of green manure crops grown and thq date they are turned under. They should also keep receipts showing purchase of ground lime stone or superphosphate applied to the soil as a soil-building practice. As a further means of proof, the dean suggested that farmers notify thiqir local committeemen, or thtir county agent’s office, whenever they carry out soil-building prac tices. The notification does not have to be in writing, he continued. The important thing is to inform the committeemen. Then in checking up on a groov er’s compliance the committeemfen will take note of the practice? carried out and give the farmer credit for them. Before a producer can qualify for the payments, the dean emphasized, he will be required to submit proof of the soil-building practices he has followed. This is why it is important to keep records, and notify the com mitteemen of all such! practices ob served in connection with the new program. Dental Staff of Division of O/al Hygiene, N. C.

Chicago; Junq 29—An “alarming” increase in highway deaths during May was reported today by the na tional safety council. After three months of steady de cline in response to the council’s country-wide campaign to save lives, motoring fatalities increased last month 7 percent above the mark of May, 1935. Two thousand, nine hundred and aaventy persons died on the na tion’s streets and roads during the month. The previous May deaths totaled 2,780. The sudden change carried the average reduction in accident deaths for the first five months of the year down to 3 percent, less than half the campaign goal of 7 percent. “Positive action” to reverse this unexpected trend during the re mainder of the summer was promis ed within the next fqw days by W. H. Cameron, managing director of the council. Unless the tide is turned, he said, continuance of the May rate would push the 1935 death total to 38,200, an all time high. The record was set with 37,000 in 1935. IA DuO c to or« s first day Liquid, Tablets Headache, 30 Salve, Nose Drops minutes. Try “Rub-My-Tism”-World’s Best Liniment The Peoples Bank of Roxboro, N. C.
