HILE the director, George
’ Y Cukor, was in New York
making film tests of Southern
debutantes and several young
actresses from the New York
stage, the news inadvertently
leaked out in Hollywood that
David Selznick, the producer,
had already made up his mind
about who should play the leads
in “Gone With the Wind.”
Miriam Hopkins is to play Scar¬
lett, Clark Gable will be Rhett, Janet
Gaynor draws the appealing rple of
Melanie, and Leslie Howard will be
Ashley, whom Scarlett loves but
loses. Undoubtedly if the tests made
in New York show real talent; the
girls will be put under contract to
play supporting roles in “Gone With
the Wind” or for future pictures.

clothes, are next in impor¬
tance, and Roland Young and Alan
Mowbray join the cast to add to
the hilarity. Even if Greta Garbo
were playing the lead, a more im¬
posing cast could not have been
commandeered.
A current picture that everyone
likes, and that men are particularly
enthusiastic over is “Sea Devils,” an
R K O picture with Victor McLaglen.
There is a storm at sea in this one
that will make you grip the arms of
your theater seat or your companion
and if you don’t let out a few loud
gasps, you won’t be like the majority
in +he preview audience. Ida Lupino
plays the lead skillfully, but the
girl, you will remember, is Helen
Flint who gives a brilliant perform¬
ance as a tough character.

A few years ago it was considered
the lowest form of insult if a screen
actress was called a “Clothes
horse.” In fact, Gloria Swanson
used to threaten to play nothing
but waifs in rags if reviewers didn’t
stop praising her ability to wear
clothes. Now, all the girls in Holly¬
wood want to be considered good
dress models, partly because the'
top dramatic stars, Greta Garbo
and Luise Rainer, want dress-up
roles, but largely because so many
fashion-show pictures are going into
production.

Fruits and vegetables are the he¬
roes and heroines of a movie being
shown extensively in the producing
regions of the South and Far West.
The picture, designed to bring the
big city auction markets to grow¬
ers, dramatizes the selling process
on a typical auction market where
thousands of cars of fruits and veg¬
etables are translated into millions
of dollars in revenue to the growers
every year.

Scott Watson "TIT
Father of the Cattle Trails
TF IT had not been for Joseph G.
1 McCoy, there might never have
occurred that epic migration over
the cattle trails from Texas to the
north during the seventies and
eighties. In that case the history
of the Lone Star state—and the
whole West, for that matter—might
have been very different. McCoy,
a native of Springfield, 111., was a
stockman and cattle buyer who
went to the raw little frontier town
of Abilene, Kan., soon after the
Civil war was over.
That conflict had ruined the cat¬
tlemen in Texas. Shut off from
the Northern markets by the Union
control of the Mississippi river,
their herds had increased enor¬
mously, but without a place to sell
the animals, they were compar¬
atively worthless. Then the Kan¬
sas Pacific railroad, which was
building west, reached Abilene and
McCoy was inspired with a wonder¬
ful idea.
If he could get the Texas drovers
to drive their herds north across
Indian territory to Abilene, grazing
them on the rich prairie grass as
they came, Abilene would be the
market place and shipping center
where Texas sellers and Chicago
and Kansas City buyers could
meet. Despite many obstacles, in¬
cluding the prevalent belief that
Texas beef was not as good as
that grown in the Middle West, Mc¬
Coy went about the job of making
his dream come true.
In July, 1867, he began raising
money to build a “shipping yard,”
a barn and office and to begin the
construction of a large, three-story
frame hotel for the accommodation
of Texas drovers and eastern buy¬
ers. His next '.ask was to get
word to the cattlemen more than
400 miles away to the south. Al¬
though the time was short he man¬
aged to persuade enough of them
to make the experiment so that
they marketed 35,000 head of cattle
in Abilene that fall and received
approximately $15 a head for their
steers. Previous to that time steers
were selling for $5 a head in Texas.
The next year more than 75,000
cattle were marketed there. By
1871 that number had jumped to
120,000 and by the next year to
236,000. From that time on Texas
cattle poured north by the hundreds
of thousands over the original cattle
trail from the Red river to Abi¬
lene and other trails which were
laid out. Other Kansas “cow towns”
began to boom with activity as the
railroad was pushed farther west
and southwest and there was added
to our history that thrilling chap¬
ter when the cattleman was king.
And all of this was due to the vision
of one man—Joseph G. McCoy, the
“Father of the Cattle Trails.”
Mr. Currier and Mr. Ives
'T'HEY gave Americans of their
day the equivalent of the news
reels of today. They were the pic¬
torial historians of contemporary
American life a century ago when
newspapers contained little or no
picture material except an oc¬
casional fashion print.
When a steamboat blew up, a
great fire swept a city or some
other disaster occurred, Mr. Cur¬
rier and Mr. Ives immediately put
out a colored picture of the event
with plenty of action in it. When
the United States was at war, they
issued splendid battle pictures with
plumed generals on prancing horses
(and plenty of gory detail as to dead
and wounded soldiers). There were
pictures of horse races and other
sporting events, there were pictures
of swilt clipper ships and pictures
of the first transcontinental trains
running amidst Indians and buffalo.
There were highly moral pictures
there were even “comic strips”
—caricatures of life among the ne¬
groes, called “Darktown Comics.”
It all started back in 1830 when
young Nathaniel Currier, working
as an'apprentice to John Pendle¬
ton, who had returned from Europe
with the new art of lithography, be¬
gan thinking of setting up his own
business. So he went to New York
and started as a lithographer in
partnership with a young man
named Stoddard. This partnership
lasted only a year but in 1835 Cur¬
rier began again. He soon built up
a profitable business but it wasn’t
until 1850 when James A. Ives be¬
came his partner that fame and
fortune came to them.
For 30 years Mr. Currier and Mr.
Ives were “printmakers to the
American people” and Currier and
Ives prints of one sort or another
were to be found on the walls of
virtually every American home. In
1880 Currier retired with a foitune
but the firm continued with a son
of the founder in his place. In
1888 machine color printing was ap¬
plied to their product and even
greater numbers of their pictures
flooded the country.
In recent years Currier and Ives
prints have become “Americana.’'
Where once these prints sold from
six cents to $3, they are now sell¬
ing for anywhere from $20 to $500.
And one of them recently brought
$3,000!
Smart, Flattering Dresses
MRS. DICK EVANS has come
to town and brought Ann and
Eddie LeRoy with her. She lives
in Palm Beach in the wintertime
and, of course, knows all about
style. That’s why she wears this
directoire type frock that is both
new and figure flattering. In the
floral print she has chosen she
is perfectly gowned for the parties
that will be given for her in the
home town. The kiddies are wear¬
ing the simple styles appropriate
to childhood and therein their
smartness lies.
Auntie Rose Sews, Too.
Little Ann is asking Auntie Rose
if she makes her clothes too.
“Sure enough, dear,” comes the
reply. “I made this percale for
mornings and have a beauty in
yellow crepe cut from the same
pattern to wear to the Bid-or-Bi
meetings.”
“I’ll bet you can sew fast, too,
the way Mother does. It only took
her two mornings to make Ed¬
die’s suit and my dress. Won’t
you help me with my doll clothes
now?”
“Indeed I will, Ann, and then
we will have some of those oat¬
meal cookies you like for lunch.”
