Dolores will positively and absolutely celebrate Labor Day. That matter was decided this week when a subscription list was circulated and it was found that a sufficient fund had been pledged to guarantee the success of the enterprise. Details of the program have not been worked out, but it is assured that the entertainment will be better than ever.
Alfred Bume and Miss Eva Akin, town of Dolores' popular younger set, were married more than a year ago, on July 9, 1933, to be exact, according to a definite statement made to a representative of this paper this week. The ceremony was performed at Monticello, Utah. The young people succeeded in keeping the event a secret even to their most intimate friends. Mr. Blume is an industrious young farmer of the Summit Ridge section, while Mrs. Blume is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Roy Akin, of Dolores. The couple are making their home in Dolores, having established their residence on ninth street, where they are at home to their friends.
Pythian Theater has been bringing some most excellent pictures to Dolores, and perhaps the greatest of these is the great Fox production "Stand Up and Cheer," which is to be shown here this week, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The picture is said to have everything that is timely -- comedy, pathos, action, beautiful song numbers, elaborate dance numbers and in short it is one of the greatest pictures ever produced, according to those who have seen it. Pythian Theater is enjoying splendid patronage with large crowds each night.
