SOUTHBRIDGE TALKIES
NEXT SATURDAY.
One of the most human, compelling and dramatic screen narratives of years. Jesse L. Lasky's "The White Parade," will be screened at the Southbridge Town Hall on Saturday avening next, and is recommended as superlative entertainment. It is a story with a soul! "The White Parade" may safely be described as a gripping and a poignant drama, and the manner of its presentation is a distinct contribution to screen history. Loretta Young offers a masterly performance as the young student nurse who is the heroine. The film follows her schooling from the day of her enrolment, until, just graduated, she has to make her choice between the man she loves, John Boles, and the service whose true meaning has become every day more clear to her.
In his tribute to nurses, Roosevelt said in part: "Thank God I always respected womanhood—and if anyone asks you what I think of the nursing profession, tell them I said—no, they are not angels—they are too practical for that—but they are trumps, every one of them."
