"Cinderella's Twin," in which Viola
Dana plays the leading part, is a
rather whimsical and modern variant,
on the old classic, with much mora
complexity in plot and action than
the old fable-writers may have
thought necessary. However, the
'complexity adds only to the sustain-
ing of interest, not to confusion.
, Viola Dana plays her part charm-
| ingly. Her supporting cast is able.
i The not too obvious, not too subtle,
! digs at detectives and the nouvoaux

COTTON PICKERS
ARE CALLED FOR
Call for cotton pickers was re-
ceived at the state labor bureau from
Jackson county, Monday, according
to Claude E. Connally, state labor
commissioner. About 200 are need-
ed. the report stated.
The hot, dry weather of the past
few weeks has caused the crop to
ripen all at once in this section, and
it is said that much of the cotton is
loose in the bolls. It must be picked
at once, or a large portion of it will
be lost. Connally declared. The yield
in Jackson county is said to be one
of the best in the state.
Wages announced by the state bu-
reau, and reported by the county
farm agent are $1 a hundred with
board furnished, and $ 1.25 when the
picker boards himself. Mexicans and
negroes, as well as whites, will be
given employment, he said. Those
wishing to work there should get in
touch with the labor bureau here, or
write to the county farm demon-
strator at Altus, Connally said.
