Childs Is Surprised By QU ueen Esther Club H. B. Childs Streator, Illinois September 23, 1933 years, deing subject to attacks of the disease at intermittant periods, causing her family grave concern The sudden illness which she suffered Tuesday evening upon returtp-lng from the Times-Press Ketvifi-ator Cooking school, was so severe that a physician was immediately summoned. He pronounced hi condition critical, but noted considerable improvement the next morning. Her passing Wednesday at aoen, therefore, came as a shock to her family and friends.

I Mr. Vincent Daniels, Pres. Motion Picture Operators, 919 4th Street, La Salle, Illinois. Dear Mr. Daniels: This difference is due to a necessarily higher price for carefully selected wheat Costs More" Worth It! There would be no trick in our making a flour from cheaper wheat and by a shorter process- -to sell at a lower price.

But Occident Flour is designed for those women who want exceptional results in their baking women who are willing to pay a little more if they can get more in the way of baking result to show for the slightly higher cost. And thats just what you will find when you use Occident. It improves the flavor of everything you bake gives you finer texture and a prolonged freshness flint permits longer intervals betweeabakmgdays. Money-Beck Guarantee Tou are under no obligation to keep the sack of Occident Flour you order unless you agree that the slightly higher cost of Occident is more than justified by the difference in baking results. Your grocer is authorized to refund full purchase price if you want it.

Why not order a sack today under the terms of this money-back guarantee? Reck To Address JG. O. P. Meeting Here Mrs. Bessie Williams was pleas-ntly surprised by the members of the Queen Esther Club who showered her with hahdkerchiefs in honor of her birthday.

The guest of honor was hostess to the group at the regular meeting last evening in her home. A delicious lunch was served at tables prettily decorated in keeping with the Easter season. Small Easter baskets tied with pink and green ribbon, the lodge colors, were placed at each plate and the centerpiece was a large birthday cake baked by Mrs. Pearl Gee. The ladies sang the Happy Birthday song to Mrs.

Williams. A short business session preceded the party and the ladies held a lengthy discussion of the cooking school held at the local gymnasium. The next meeting will be held at the home of Mrs. (See. Wednesday afternoon, April 22.

Regarding your last trip here. To be frank, business is terrible, and right at the present, it is simply out of the question to put one of your men to work, much as I would like to do so. If business would only show a little improvement, I would feel a little more warranted in doing so, but it seems as though it has to get just a little worse each weds. But, as I told you everytime you have been here, I cant help but think business is going to pick up as soon as cooler weather arrives, and just as soon as we can see our way clear at all, will be more than glad to let you know. Of course you understand that my father and I are doing our own work and that no one is being hired for the work now.

I FEEL THAT WE HAVE BEEN VERY FORTUNATE IN HAVING A LOCAL AS REASONABLE AS YOURS HERE IN STREATOR AND YOU CAN REST ASSURED THAT WE ARE CERTAINLY GOING TO COOPERATE WITH YOU IF BUSINESS WILL ONLY WARRANT. Wishing you and your entire local the best of luck, I am Very truly yours, K. F. Childs. Harry Reck, of Mendota, candidate for the Republican nomination for congressman of the twelfth district, is addressing a meeting in the Legion halt at Ottawa tonight, and tomorrow evening will talk before a gathering of local adherents in Good Will hall in this city.

Among other things, Judge Reck is expected to go into an extensive discussion of farm problems. T- 7 1 it One thing they all agree on Facts the People Should Know: AVOTRE SAN7E HERE CHEERIO SALUTED i wt i i P'l Ever been in Singapore? Constantinople? Buenos Budweiser has. No matter where people have gone, they have been unable to find a beer like Budweiser with its matchless character, bouquet and flavor. People who know beer have made Budweiser the biggest-selHng bottled beer in history. For your own enjoyment, include in your circle of friends the beer that I 'll has circled the globe vi' IXV it f-? I 3 The president of the Streator Trades Labor Council appointed a committee about three years ago to see you to place union operators in the old Granada Theatre, but with no success, thus the result of the above letter, appealing to us to give you a break 1.

True, the Granada Theatre has in the past four months paid 100 union wages and maintained the required building help in constructing your hew theatre to the extent oflf $9,000.00 well done. I 2. Streator has a Local Union it has classification as such by jurisdictional mandate in that the local union is comprised in title as La Salle, Streator ft Ottawa, Illinois, Local I Union No. 600, affiliated with the INTERNATIONAL ALLIANCE OF STAGE EMPLOYES AND MOTION PICTURE MACHINE OPERATORS OF THE UNITED STATES CANADA, as well as the AMERICAN FEDERATION OF-LABOR 3. You have one operator doing the work of two, and yet have 17 minutes out of every 20 minutes to do as he pleases? What is he doing in the other three minutes? You say her prepares the idle machine for operation while the other machine is in operation? The ma- chine in operation runs along 20 minutes without the least bit of attention from your man operation, with approximately 12,000 feet of highly inflammable and combustive cel- lulose nitrate film coursing through the machines at the rate of 90 feet per minute in the path of a highly condensed light at temperatures of 1200 to 1500 degrees Fahrenheit (Cel- lulose nitrate film as used today will ignite at 300 degrees Fahrenheit if allowed to momentarily while in the course of running through a projector.) If this film should sud- denly break or snap in the path of such highly intensified heat, and the operator can do as; he pleases and not be attentive to the machine running such highly inflammable materials well he would lose no time in getting out and away from such machine in the event of ap! film fire and let the audience of the theatre to care for themselves, with the result of panic and loss of life and limb.

In comparison, well say the engineer on a passenger train be required to do his own firing of the boiler while running who would be at the throttle, I carefully watchipg to see that the train is going along its right-of-way in perfect safety? THE SCHEDULED PERFORMANCE WITNESSED BY THE AUDIENCE THROUGH PAID ADMISSIONS ARE ENTITLED TO THE EXERCISE 'll OF THE UTMOST PRECAUTIONS IN CARING FOR THEIR SAFETY AND WELFARE. I II ss SfSt 1 IPV i I i 4 How old is beer? As old as civilization. Zythum, ancient Egyptian word for beer, is one of the last words in the but everybody who drinks Budweiser knows that Budweiser is the last word in beer. Order a carton for your homt-NO DEPOSIT REQUIRED-Be prepared to entertain your guests. 4.

Your operator is willing to join our union you say? He could not be admitted, because to the best of our knowledge, he is not of the required age, which must be 21 years, required by rulings of both our International and Local Union. 5. You mention of placing men out of town in the booth to care for your sound and projecting equipment? Well, how about your present operator? He came to Streator from Michigan City, Indiana. ou are now bonaf ide residents of Streator and propose to remain so its a free country. 6.

We do say the Granada Theatre is unfair to organized labor in that you do not employ union operators in the booth. We simply cannot understand your sudden change of attitude toward Organized Labor0 in that you were 100 fair in the construction of your new Granada Theatre but when it comes to union operators, whom are also affiliated with the American Federation of Labor, you will not consider them. WE APPEAL TO THE PUBLIC OF STREATOR TO GIVE US THEIR HEARTY COOPERATION AND SUPPORT IN HAVING A SPEEDY AND AMICABLE SETTLEMENT IN THIS SITUATION. THANK YOU. NHEUSER-BU ST.

LOUIS The Mayflower brought Pilgrims and beer And how they complained when It was gone! They sent word back to England for more. (See Youngs Chronicles of the Pilgrims.) You need not worry about not getting your Budweiser because Budweiser is everywhere. Budweiser International Alliance of Mftion Picture Operators.
