"Shenandoah"
;For the grand opening, after

the highly -rated ,epic "Shenan-

Here is a recent .review on
the motion picture which has
been drawing . capacity box of:
fee crowds:
" 'Shenandoah' is one of , the
finest and most sensitive pictures
to come out of Hollywood this
year—highlighted - by :an out-
standing performance by James
Stewart that is certain to snake
him a strong contend,;r in this
year's Acadepiy Award race.

"In addition to Mr. Stewart's
wonderful performance,"a brace
of youngsters playing key roles
give inspired portrayals. Each
one is a gem of proper casting.
Doug McClure was lifted right
out of his regular starring role
in 'The Virginian' TV'series to

"Two of the ked elements
which make for excl lient movies
are laughter and tears—and both
of these element., are woven
into this Civil War adventure -
drama with consummate skill by
director Andrew V. McLaglen.
"It is a tour de force for Stew-
art, acting -wise, ranking with
the best of the 67 starring roles
he has had in the more than
30 years of motion picture mak-'
king.
"Filmed in Technicolor by
Universal and produced by Rob=

perceptively written original
screen -Olay; by James 'Lee Bar-
rett. It is basically a sensitive
story of the terrible futility of
war.

KEEP SHOOTING A SAFE SPORT
With the hunting season all around us once again, 4'd
like to pass on to Goderich hunters and hunters -to -be the
following common sense points that appeared a while back in a
telephone company safety journal. -
1
1, Never carry a 'loaded gun in an automobile, wagon,
or other vehicle. Keep it in its case until you start
hunting.. .
2. Before shooting, look into the breech and make sure
that the barrel or barrels are dear.
3. Keep the safety lock on until just ready to shoot.
4. Never pull a gun through a fence nor carry it over
with you. Keep the muzzle pointed away from your-
self and others.
5. Never lay a loaded gun down in a boat. Never liFt
a gun fry r , boat by the barrel.
6. Don't set a loaded gun against a tree or a fence or
leave it lying on , the ground. Even - a playful dog
miOht cause it to be discharged.
7. After a fall, or a climb, or after walking over ploughed
ground, examine your gun to• make sure the barrels
are clear.
8. Never. shoot -at objects indistinctly - seen. 'among frees
or bushes; they might be human beings.
9. Before shooting a game, make sure that no house, barn
or other building is in the line of fire.
10. Don't leave your gun or shells near a stove, a fire-
place or other fire.
One other point not covered but important is that it is
NEVER open season on telephone poles, conductors or cable.
Taking pot shots at vital telephone installatio'n's not only shows
a very great lack of maturity but endangers the life and property
of people .who depend on the telephone to bring them assis-
tance in emergencies. •
