Engagingly sentimental, whole-
somely appealing, “The Virginia
Judge," a film version of Walter C.
Kelly’s internationally known stage
character, shows at this theatre
Tuesday only.
Kelly himself, in the title role,
contributes a noteworthy charac-
terization as the lovable judge whose
court room is the center of many
bits of philosophical, but sarcastic
humor as he pronounces sentence
on the many darkies who appear be-
fore him.
Marsha Hunt, young screen sen-
sation, makes her film debut in the
production and delivers a fine, un-
affected portrayal as the attractive
belle cf the little southern town.
Displaying a remarkable gift of nat-
uralness in her acting, Miss Hunt
reveals potentialities for future
stardom.
Stepin Eetchit, beloved seplan
rogue, romps away with the com-

an hilarious interpretation as the
community’s harmless but trouble-
some bad boy. The negro comedian
has one of his best roles to date.
Johnny Downs and Robert Cum-

are pleasing and capable in their
respective roles.
The story deals with the life of a
small town southern judge, his per-

“Since it is estimated that a
homemaker spends approximately
70 per cent of her time in the kitch-

DAY AND NIGHT
Miss Adelene Fonbis returned Sat-

in Oklahoma with friends.
It is large
enough that a bed is kept in, mak-
ing an extra room when the home
is crowded with company.
To make the kitchen a better
workshop, a cabinet and sink were
the first additions. The Shelves of
this new cabinet, were made from
the top of the old cabinet and the
lower part is being used for a need-
ed cook table. A cement back porch
9x18 feet completed the improve-
ments. When the walls and wood-
work are refinished, it will fill all
the requirements of a sanitary
kitchen.
Two doors were discarded and an-
other door moved in the bedrooms,
making them more comfortable and
roomy and cutting off undesirable
views. During the change a new
