Alice White, the well known
emissary of whoopee, adorns the
screen at the Parmele theatre the
rest of this week in her latest optical
opus, "Hot Stuff."
Miss Whit, who is devoting her
cinema life to resting the eyes of the
tired business man and spreading the
gospel cf joy, has an ideal vehicle
for her purpose in "Hot Stuff,"
which, while a story of college life,
will appeal to children of all ages,
from 7 to 77 and up. It is not neces
sary to be collegiate, nor to even
wear a raccoon coat, to thrill to the
escapades of Alice, as the wise little
co-ed, and her don't-give-a-whoop
pals.
Alice makes it easy for the ignor
ant, as well as the learned, to react
favorably to her antics. In other
words, this gal has a whole load of
IT and net a little ability to act,
along with it. She is one fascinating
damsel, and her box-office mganttism
must be getting more and more pow
erful, thu3 bringing great delight to
the hearts of the First National exe
cutives, under whose auspices Alice
romps before the camera.
"Hot Stuff" was adapted from
"Bluffers" a college story by the col
legiate author Robert S. Carr. Tt
deals with two very devel'.sh stu
dents, a boy and a girl, who pretend
to be a lot worse than they are,
and when each discovers the other's
secret, they naturally fall for one an
other like a ton of brick.
Mervyn LeRoy, the youthful direc
tor who gave us "Harold Teen,"
"Oh, Kay," and other successful pic
tures, directed "Hot Stuff," and
again demonstrated that you do not
have to sport a long beard and
crutches to be a clever motion pic
ture director. Mervyn has learned

There are others in "Hot Stuff"

A PLACE OF BEAUTY
One of the attractive homes of
the city, especially at this season
of the year is that of Attorney A. L.
T:dd on Oak street. Here the eye is
delighted with the most charming
display of the garden flowers of the
lr.ti- sprirg end early summer, the
beautiful roses, the bright peonies
and just passing away is the stately
iris. Mr. Tidd has given a great deal
of study to the cultivation of flowers
and fruit and his interest in this
is attested in the beautiful surround
ings that make his home one of the
most delightful to view of any in the
city.
The home is worth the time of
ii ny cne to look over and shows what
the care and cultivation of flowers
can do toward making a city beau
tiful and a hundred persons exer
cising this care of the lawn and
grounds of their homes would go
far toward rivaling the far famed
lioral beauties of the California
cities.

Many Sounds
New to Talkies
in This One
Dorothy Mackaill and Jack Mulhall
Are Co-Featured in Vitaphone
Picture at Parmele.
What theo cean says to sad sea
waves, or the frolicsome surf whis
pers to the bathing beauty it loves
will be revealed at last.
Love vibrations will be heard as
well as seen. The mating call of the
taxi-cab and the moans of the pe
destrian, together with other noises
innumerable, accompany a rollicking
film adaption of Kenyon Nicholson's
play "Two Weeks Off," which will be
shown at the Parmele theatre for
three days starting Sunday.
The picture was produced by First
National Vitaphone, and it contains
a greater variety of sounds than any
so far offered the screen. Dorothy
Mackaill and Jack Mulhall are co
featured, with Eddie Gribbon, Ger
trude Astor, Kate Price, James Fin
layson and other popular players in
the supporting cast.
Hitherto, in most sound pictures,
sounds that do not have significance
in the action are barred. In "Two
Weeks Off" the sounds are registered
exactly as they are heard in real
life. Speech and the sound of surf,
the cacophony of down-town city
traffic and the hum of the crowd
furnish backgrounds for the action
and dialogue of the story.
As for the "love vibrations," the
200 pound comedienne, Kate Price,
supplied them. She thought that the
roaring sound In the microphone was
an electrical vibration caused by a
"hot" comedy love scene. Director
William Beaudine and his sound ex
perts assured her that it was merely
the sound of panting!

The lovers of the popular sum- '

bers of the Elks country club may
soon have the opportunity of fully
enjoying this sport if the present
plans of the directors of the club
are carried out.
The plans now being made are for
the construction of two courts so
that it will be possible at almost any
time of the day for the lovers of this
sport to enjoy their favorite pastime

There has been a number of re- '
quests from those who enjoy tennis
to have the courts installed and
which will bring to the club a num
ber who are not members if they
can enjoy this sport on a properly
prepared and maintained court.
This feature with one of the finest
golf courses in the state and the
large and attractive club house will
make the country club a very popu
lar place during the coming summer
and one that will draw out large
numbers ef the residents of this city
and vicinity to participate in the

received successful treatment from
the hands of Dr. Ortman at Canis
tota. and to this place Mrs. Parsons
was taken by her family.
On arrival at the South Dakota
city it was found that there were
hundreds there to seek relief in this
form c.f treatment and many days
were necessary before it was possi
ble to reach the side of the "healer"
and each day as some of the patients
left there were many more arriving
and the place was teeming with
those who were suffering from all
forms of physical ailments. i

Cass County
Club Leader
Wins a Prize
Lucile Christenson of Alvo Is Award
ed Prize Offered by the Burl
ington Railroad
As recognition of excellence in
leadership in 4-H Club work in this
county, Lucile Christenson of Alvo
will receive from the Burlington
Railroad a cash award of $15, this
prize to assist in defraying the ex
pense of a trip to Lincoln to attend
a club leader's conference which is
held during 4-H Club Week. June 3
to 8. The Burlington is awarding
these leadership prizes in each of
the counties in which this railroad
operates in Nebraska to encourage
club leaders in their efforts to im
prove agricultural conditions in their
respective, counties.
County Agent L. R. Snipes advises
that conferences for volunteer club
leaders are now held at Lincoln each
year by the State Extension Depart
ment at the time of the boys and
girls annual short course at the i
State College of Agriculture. To j
qualify for the Burlington prize J
awards for trips to these conferences, i
I'-uders must have received at least
one Certificate of Achievement and
one Award of Appreciation for lead
ership artivities in Hub work of the
preceding year, this recognition
coming to the leader through the
State Extension Department which
means the winners of the leadership
award in the various counties.
Club leaders who devote themsel
ves to this work are most deserving
cf credit, for effective 4-H Clulx
work depends so largely upon effi
cient local leadership; and undoubt
edly 4-H Club work is one of the
most important pieces of agricultural
educational work being carried on
in this country today. Any recogni
tion of public-spirited citizens who
devote themselves unselfishly to the
advancement of 4-H Club work is a
definite contribution to the welfare
of the community.
