To this, and whenever police attempted to make statements, Iris Mcorin gave the lie and called police officers liars, launched into loud and long orations, and added force to her verbal attacks with wild gesticulaâ€" tions. Her sister, Sally, swearing beâ€" hind police officers in the courtrcom, was warned to silence three or four times but ‘continued her swearing near the end of the noisy and flashy case.

Beery And Margaret O‘Brien Coâ€"Starred The story of a tiny orphan girl who brings a Bad Man of the West to his kneces, is now plavirg at The Palace Theatre, coâ€"starring. Margaret O‘Brien and Wallace Beery. Teaming of the vetcran Beery and the talented Miss O‘Bricn is a masterâ€" stroke of casting, for the two offer a fascinating contrast in their respective roles of an amiable but hardened bandit and the little girl who proves she can hold her own with the toughest. It is this curious attachment of the illâ€"assorted pair that brings an unâ€" usual tenderness and appeal to the narrative of a bandit and his actcomâ€" plice in thievery who join up with a caravan of Mormons in crder bo escape detection. Bascomb finds his toughness of no avail against the wiles of the affecâ€" tionate little child, and finds himself working much against his will as a handy man to Marjoric Main, playing a sharpâ€"tongued widow â€" and, inciâ€" dentally, contributing one of the funâ€" niest portrayals of her career. When this apparent softness upon the part of Bascotfnb interferes with their plans.to steal a bag of gold carâ€" ried by the Mormons, his henchman, Yancey, steals the gold himself, in the process killing the Morman leader, who has befricnded them. This act brmgs upon him the wrath of Bascomb aiid, in return, Yancey leads a pack cf Indians in an alttack on the caravan.

The answer is;â€" You must have at least, three months service in an allied force and have seen active service, or have served not lessuthan three years in any of his Majesty‘s forces or the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. I have had many inquiries, and it i8 tough to turn some down, as their inâ€" tentions were of the best, and it was not their fault they were turned down, but there it is, as it stands, and I hope they see this, that it may answer their question. All credit‘ to them in their support of the Canadian Legion. No doubt, you read in the papers last week, that the clothing question was becoming quite acute, not for love nor money can you be measured up for a suit, until around about 1947.
