The weather was ideal and Mr, Johnson, superintendent of the Manchester Sunday School, stated that Saturday was the finest day that Manchester had had the good fortune on which to have a picnic for the last two years, During the previous two picnics, rain and inclement weather had marred their enjoyment, While the four picnics were really separate affairs, Manchester, Raglan, Prospect, and Myrtle pooled their re- sources so that they might hold unit- ed sports, For some time it was feared that the various other attractions in the Park would prevent the sports being held, Consequently, when the vari- ous superintendents of the Sunday Schools gathered together the pienic- ers, .it was about five o'clock, The sports, however, were quite interest- ing, The final event held was a tug-of- war tournament between the Sunday Schools, In the first round there were two tugs of war between the Sunday Schools, The victors met in the final to decide the champion team, Between fifty and seventy-five 'peo- ple were present from cach Sunday school, The Sunday School superintendents who are to be thanked for the success of the picnic are: Mr, J. R. Johnson of Manchester, Mr, L.. Diamond of Prospect, Mr, Graham of Myrtle, and Mr, Ormiston of Raglan, The transport, sports, refreshment, and various other committee also con- tributed to the success of the picnic in no uncertain manner, A flapper town is one that has no outskirts,--Montreal Star, That American stowaway on the Yellow Bird might be termed an am- hassador of good gall, -- Buffalo Courier-Express, HYDRO ACQUIRES OTTAWA VALLEY POWER INTERESTS 100,000 Horsepower Is Add. ed to Power Develop- ment by Purchase Toronto, July 3.--Paying $1,800,000 in cash, the provincial hydro commis. sion has bought out the Ottawa Val- ley power interests of Senator M, J.

' Heralded as an Unusual Screen Drama James Murray and Barbara Kent Co-Starred Patrons of the Martin Theatre have a treat in store for them, "The Shakedown," an unusual screen play of widely heralded excellence, will be shown on the screen beginning Thurs- day, It was made by Universal with James Murray and Barbara Kent in the featured roles, The story, written by the veteran newspaper and screen writer, Charles A. Logue, is built around the crooked fight racket. It discloses .how un- scrupulous boxing managers stage fake fights with "set-ups" in order to milk the unsuspecting public with "sure" bets, There is a delightful love story and a succession of human interest touches which give the pic- ture great appeal, William Wyler, who directed it, has constructed a boy and girl romance in a dramatic setting, This director will be remembered for his "Anybody [Here Seen Kelly ?", a recent Univer sal picture of great heart appeal and deft human touches: In "The Shake- down" he is said to have bettered his former technique. James Murray, remembered for his work in "The Crowd," "The Big City" and "In Old Kentucky", plays the part of a young oil well rigger in "The Shakedown." His character un- dergoes a surprising development that adds great interest to the story. Miss Kent, the heroine, is the girl who played in "Lonesome," in "Flesh anid the Devil," "The Drop Kick," "The Small Bachelor," "That's My Daddy" and "Stop That Man." Othérs in the cast include George Kotsonaros, Wheeler Oakman, Harry Gribbon and little Jack Hanlon, In addition to the appealing story and its amusing sequences, the picture con- tains remarkable scenes of an oil field with derricks, pumps, gushers and all the picturesque details that surround the oil business.
