It ls understood that a spark trcni the flue landed on the dry shingles, burning a hole about three feet square before it. was noticed owing to a large tree growing on the lawn in front of the ‘house. However. the quick work of the fire squad soon ex- tinguished the blale before it had rm opportunity of spreading to the two immediate adjacent buildings. On the previous nigfht the stimmer cottage of Mr. Archie Hume on Montague River burned to the ground. It is understood that a. fire had been laid and bank- ed following the evening dinner, and on the later return of Mr. and Mrs. Hume. the cottage was burned. However, great. as this loss was the loss of his four-hundred years old violin. was an even great‘- er loss to one who is a lover of good music. and who treasured his violin with which he has pleased so many audiences in the past. The sympathy of the community l5 extended to Mr. Hui-me on his great personal loss, and we can only hope that there will soon be another so that he may go on pleasitltf his ardent listeners as before. “ALI. M!’ SOAS" OUTSTANDING PLAY BECOMES A POWER- FUL MOTION PICTURE An outstanding play has been transformed into an outstanding motion picture, “All My Sons," the powerful, inspiring play chosen for top honors by the New York drama critics, opens today an ii screen of- fering at. the Prince mward Theatre. It turned out to be top screen fare. destined to rank among the outstanding pictures of the year. Starring Edward G. Robin- son and Burt Lancaster the Uni- versal-Intemattonal presentation portrays with dynamic simplicity the post-war story of how money proved stronger than patriotism to One man with the result that a number of air men lost their lives. including his own son. his partner weht to prison and later his own life was forfeited. The filmmakers faithfully foi- low the stage version in trans- latin the story for the screen. They not only took s. fine play but actually improved upon the orig- inal. Robinson and Lancaster in the main roles add spirit and act ion to a picture that vibrates with high emotion and deep significance Mady Christians, veteran star of stage and screen. is genuinely warming as wife and mother. while Louisa Horton, Howard Duff. Ar‘.- one hancls and Frank Conroy are fine in nipportlng roles. "All My Sons" waa written and produced by Chester Erskine and directed by Irving Rein. ll E A I 61'“!
