HOLLYWOOD (UP)—Mo it
people imagine that the paiti(.'3
hud in Hollywood are lavish af-|
fairs that would do credit to a
Roman emperor. What a disap-
pointment it would be if they at-
tended a fini colony party and
found the same parlor games be-
ing played that are played in thn
average American city.
The lads and lassies of movici-
dom gather at parties to chat,
talk shop and have a good time.
Someone usually plays the pi-
ano, and someone else sings and
everyone eats.
Occasionally an impromptu
i quartet or chorus starts a sone,
'and they hit just as many wrong
notes as any similar party group.
But everyone has a good time.
I An outsider, of course, would
be interested in the film celebii-
ties and how they have a gooj
time together. But to the celeb-
rities he party is no any differ-
ent from a party in Hoboken or
Springfield.
i A form of business-social par
ty frequently is held in Holly-
wood to celebrate the completion
of a picture. j
Bob Hope and Director Ar-
Khinbaud gave one recently lor
the members of the cast and
technical crew that worked in the
■Paramount comedy, "Thanks for;
the Memory." |
! The company went to a res-
taurant near the studio after
thev had finished work and had
troupe was there, from actors to
a sphaghetti dinner. The whole]
"grips" and electricians. i
I It was a few days before the
wedding of George Templeton,
assistant director on the picture,
and the crowd made a good deal
of fun presenting him with hum-
orous gifts.
1 After dinner Shirley Ross and
Hope sang "Thansk for the Mem-
ory," and then everyone made a
brief speech. At about 10:30 in j
ttie evening the party ended with'
everyone saying what a "swell" |
time was ihad. |
That's the wild night life of
Hollywood."

There was a very slim atten-
dance at the oyster supper given
last night under the auspices of
the Denison Benevolent Society,
even the members of the society
fai'ed to put in an appearance,
only three or four of them being
present. The society made a ser-
ious mistake tbe night they or-
ganized. It was declared publicly
the society did not caire for tbe
cooperation of saloon men, and
could get along very well without
their assistance.
This was a pretty broad hint,
as well to those who patronize:
plaices where stimulating beverages j
are disposed of, that their money
was not needed by the society, or]
at least that was the construction
that was placed by many upon
the 'aiction taken. These two
classes are quite numerous in Den-
ison as in all western towns, andj
it is proverbial that they are lib-1
ei'ail set of fe'lows. To cut off|
this large element could not but
seriously cripple the society, j
Those who originated the praise-!
worthy movement allowed their j
own prejudices to interfere with
the hearty cooperation of all our!
citizens who are willing to join
with their neighbors in providing
for the relief of the poor and un-
fortunate, of whom there are far
too many in our community.
Dispatches assert that the dem-
ocrats have carried Indiana and
INTERESTING BITS ABOUT
OUR FRIENDS
Walter Jennings and the "mis-
sut" tell us of a very smart pet
dog they have which, nccording
t i their ^tory has a peculiar lik-
' i ig for the Denison Press. Walter
f lys he has three daily papers
t irown on his front porch daily
rnd that the Press is the only one
it will pick out and bring to
them. He will carefully check
each paper and will invaribly
Illicit out the Press, pick it up in
his teeth and bring it to them at
the back door, that being the one
they chiefly use to enter the
house from their garage. We are
going to get a picture of that
smart pooch and let the world
see him. They tell us that
Harry Glidden keeps a careful
check on those who fish in this
area and sees that they have se-
cured the proper license. Anyhow,
ask him for an interesting and

KOALA PAiRK, Australia ((JP)
-The "coffee tasters" of other
countries have a counterpart here
in "eucalyptus tasters." A particu-j
lar kind of eucalyptus is necessary'
for feeding the famous Australian
koala bears, and as this has to be'
obtained from a great distance,'
"tasters" are employed to be sure
that the right kind of eucalyptus
is found.
Med'cal Marve-I Dead
LONDON (UP) — A man who
amazed the medical world by mar-

age of 70 and then having five
children, has died at Fareham, in
Hampshire, at the age of 90.

A. DeBroux, of the Missouri-
Pacific shops, lost his wife and
baby this week under most dis-t
tressing circumstances. On Sun-
day morning, Mrs. DeBroux gave
birth to a beautiful child, which
died shortly after. The young (
mother was so shocked at its death
that she never recovered, and died
Tuesday night. The remains of
Mrs. Do Broux and the infant,
were shipped to Hope, Kansas, the
home of the lady's parents, on
Wednesday the 10th. Two small
children and the husband survive.
Only *ai small gap of about 30
feet remains to be macadamized
on Main street, between Mirick
avenne and the ra'lroad, and men
are now engaged filling it in. This
is about as good a half mile of
street as there is in the state.
Bad boys are plentiful in Den-'
ison. Sunday morning as little
Maude Hume, the nine-yearold
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas
Hume, of West Main street, was
going to Sunday school, she was
struck on the leg, just below the
knee, with a rock, and p'ainfully
injured. The missle was thrown by
one of a gang of boys who were
enjoying themselves pelting each
Gther with stones. The young row-
dies who congregate on our street
corners are becoming a nuisance.
Dr. Brownfield's entertainment
last night opened with a minstrel,
"first part." A large crowd wit-
nessed the show and enjoyed it.
All the bad teeth in Denison are
evidently not pulled yet, but the
Doctor is yanking them out pretty
rapidly.

Another M-K-T. Irakeman
has had a desperate encounter with
a tramp in the Territory. Sunday
evening, Oct. 1 1, northbound
freight No. 102 got stalled at Peck,
a blind station about ten miles
this side of Caddo, owing to a
failure to make steam. While wait-
ing, brakeman O. M. Reeser was
alone cooking his supper in the
caboose. A strange man suddenly
made his appearance and demand-
ed something to eat. Reeser told
him he had nothing for him when
the man went away muttering.
Soon after Reeser went back to
signal a train which would soon
be due. In one hand he had two
l interns and in the other a fusee.
It occurred to him he might meet
the tramp and have trouble, so be
picked up the conductor's .45 re-
volver which was l"ing in the ca-
boose. On his way he passed a pi e
[of cordwood a sbort flhtance from
•the track, which he scrutinizer sus-
piciously but saw ri thing, and had
| passed it a few steps when he
j thought he heard a noise behind
him, and looking around saw the
■ tramp who accosted him in * the
]caboose. He was close to him and
I sprang forward and grasped the
] pistol with his hand over the muz-
zle. In the struggle he forced the
i pistol downward and as he hid so
I Reeser turned it loose. The ball
mat'e a flesh wound about two
and a half inches long close to the
knee cap in Reeser's right leg,
came out and struck his foot on
the left side of the ins'en, and
passed out through the bottom of
the shoe. The ball must also have
passed through the tramp's hand.
Mr. Reeser says he was not so ex-
cited but he took a good look at
I the fellow as he ran away, to see
if he had marked him. and his
hand was covered with blo>od. The
tramp yelled like a Comanche In-
dian, and kept it Up some time
after he disappeared. Notwith-
standing his wounds, Reeser went
on and waited an hour to flag the
train, then dragging himself back
a quarter of a mile to the caboose.
His pants, and the fusee he held
