Oath of Office
What oath does the President
take?
In our Constitution (Article [{)
“we the people” specify that our
Presidents shall take the following
oath:
“4 do solemnly swear (or affirm)
that . will faithfully execute the
office of President of the United
States, and will to the best of my
ability, preserve, protect and defend
the Constitution of the Onited
States.”
In regard to this President Lincoln wrote: “I could not take office
without taking the oath. Nor was it
my view that I might take an oath
to get power, and break the vath in
using the power.”
{In addition to requiring our Presidents to take an oath “we the people,” in our Constitution (Article
VI), specify that senators, representatives, judges and other officers
of the United States and of the
states also shall be bound by oath
to support our Constitution

EMPEROR’S CANDLESTICKS
AT NEV. THEATRE TUES.
Proving again the versality of
William Powell and Luise Rainer,
the new film which opens at the Nevada Theatre tomorrow night, “The
Emperor’s Candlesticks,” presents
these stars in-roles of arresting interest.
Powell, the hero of many a suave
comedy best known for his creation
of “The Thin Man” series in the
Dashiell Hammett stories, now becomes a gay continental spy and
gentleman about Europe. Luise Rainer, the Academy Award winner of
1936 for her role as Anna Held in
“The Great Ziegfeld’ and more recently. hailed for her characterizasion of the Chinese slave wife in
“Tye Good Herth,” is a vivacious and
exotic woman of title and intrigue.
The very contrast of their new
speed of a transcontinental express.
The story, from the
Baroness Orczy, describes’ the mad
adventures of two -exceedingly
attractive secret agents, each of whom
is suspicious of the other. Danger
lies always in their paths and death
novel by}
aside these obstacles as love nae a
way of doing, and they make life
very amusing. =
