Swivel hip Mae! Still throwing
the curves, is back with us agin I
And this time she thaws out the
frozen north. “Klondike Annie,"
With Victor McLaglen, Phillip
Reed and a dozen other men, opens
at the preview Saturday night and
runs through Monday’s program.
A successor to all the other West
pictures and as usual the dialogue
is as brittle as glass, but it isn’t
any May day for the blond bon-
fire gets in plenty of trouble and It
takes every lilt of appeal the gal
has to keep things under control.
Hold your man while you see
“Klondike Annie" for she's in her
best role!
la West plays the role of a San
Francisco gambling-house hostess
who escapes from the police to
Alaska on a battered old boat be-
longing to Captain Bull Brackett
(Victor McLaglen), Bull ialls for
her in a great big way, and urges
her to marry him,, but she stays on
In the Klondike, adopting, to throw
the police off her track, the name
and reputation of “Sister Annie,”
an evangelist who has died on the
way north.
Mae's revival meetings are the
talk of all Alaska — torch songs,
chorus numbers and everything
that goes to make a swell song-
and-dance production, and sudden-
ly, “Sister Annie’’ realizes that the
man with whom she’s in love, Jack
Forrest (Phillip Reed), a federal
agent who has been assigned to
locate the missing gambling-house
gal, is deeply in love with her!
•Bister Annie” wants to marry
Jack, but just as she’s about to ac-
cept his proposal, she realizes that
it would be unfair and she takes
Bull’s offer. They’re so much bet-
ter suited to each other—both of
them want a mate who’ll be a good
sparring partner, and in this com-
bination, they’ll both have what
they need.
“Klondike Annie” Is splendid en-
tertainment—every member of the
cast is perfect in his role, and Mae
West has been given the opportu
nity to display an additional, and
entirely new brand of humor,
which will keep the loyalty of all
her old fans, and add many new
ones.
“Fly Control" was the subject of
the program for the Wheeler Home
Demonstration club which met in
the club room Wednesday, May 20.
Mrs. Lula Mae Farley was leader.
The roll call was answered with
“A successful way to outwit flies.”
Several helpful suggestions were
given.
The “Danger of Flies” was dis-
cussed by Mrs. Jess Carver. ‘Be-
coming Fiy Conscious" was dis-
missed by MBs. C. R. Weatherly
who gave a recipe for making fly
poison which is as follows: % cup
of water, % cup of sweet milk, 1
teaspoon of sugar, 2 teaspoons of
formaldehyde 1 teaspoon of lime.
Mix thoroughly and put in a pan
where flies may get to it
During the business session Mrs.
Jim Trout gave a report on the
short course at Canyon, May 7.
Dainty refreshments were served
by the hostesses, Mrs. C. R. Weath-
erly and Mrs. Ernest Dyer, to Mes-
dames Jess Carver, Lula Mae Far-
ley, J. H. Watts, Jim Risner, W. O.
