The One Story Bank On the Corner
Wesley Dietiker, who recently
returned from a trip into Old
Mexico, was guest speaker at the 3
meeting of the Rotary Club atj
The Tavern last Thursday noon, j
He not only told many interest-'
ing things but he showed moving
pictures of people and scenes
along the way.
And, too, he had an unique experience, having picked up two
college students bound for Mexico who were hitch-hiking, on
the supposition they would have
a remittance from home awaiting
them at their destination's end.

In Mexico City the speaker
had a real surprise, meeting Mr.
and Mrs. 3Lee (nee Horton) who
taught in Saline a few years ago.
We haven't space to go into
details about the pictures more
than to say they were both beautiful and. varied, embracing the
plains of Texas, important buildings en route, mountain climbing and views of the pyramids
of Mexico that antedate by several thousand years the pyramids
of Egypt. Among the souvenirs brought home by Mr. Dietiker were some hand-made woven
objects of stone and a hand-made
straw sombrero which cost him
40 cents and which would set
him back about $5 in the U. S.
All in all it was a very good
program.
Representative Joseph Warner
of Ypsilanti was present and Carl
3E. Kane of Detroit attended as a
guest of Carl A. Curtiss.

The Saline Theatre will have a
1 parade of stars this week as
three well known pictures come to
the screen.
"Susan and God," Rachel Crothers' stage hit, will be seen with
Joan Crawford finding her most
effervescent role as Susan, and
j Fredric March co-starred as her
| husband, Barrie.
| Story of a social gadabout who
adopts a new social fad and in-
| sists on trying to convert her
friends, only to make a muddle
of their lives and her own, "Sus-
and and God" boasts one of the
strongest easts of the season. ^
Sunday will bring a mysterious
laugh-riot that will have you
shivering with fright and shaking
with laughter. It is "Ghost Breakers," starring Paulette Goddard
and Bob Hope.
Five melodic tunes of hitparade calibre are the musical
features of "That's Right—You're
Wrong," delightfully served by
Kay Kyser in this sprightly song-
and-laugh entertainment which
will be on the Merchants' Night
program Tuesday and Wednesday.
The story of the play revolves
around the hectic Hollywood adventures of a band leader. Adol-
phe Menjou and Kyser co-star,
supported by May Robson, Lucille
Ball, Edward Everett Horton, and
Kyser's own radio soloists, among
others.
