A PICTURE that will endear
itself to every dog lover in
the world and every humani
tarian, based on that heart
warming institution known as
“The Seeing Eye,” is planned
by Warner Brothers. As you
probably know, “The Seeing
Eye” is a school at Morristown,
N. J., supported by public sub
scription which trains police
dogs to lead blind men.
Started soon after the war by a
Mrs. Eustis who bad seen what won
derful work was done in Switzer
land by giving blind men dog com
panions, “The Seeing Eye” has
trained hundreds of dogs, who have
completely changed the lives of
their formerly - helpless masters.
The dogs lead their men through
traffic tangles with perfect safety—
but better even than that, provide
understanding companionship.
Far away in Boston making per
sonal appearances, the Ritz Broth-
ers heard that the
Twentieth Century- .
Fox studio planned '
to separate them, i
putting brother Jim
into “Last Year’s
Kisses” with Alice
Faye, Tony Martin,
Don Ameche and
others. They com
plained by tele
gram, they howled
over long - distance
telephone, they ob-
»ted with such
tbittered frenzy that the studio
a to give in. All three Ritz Broth
ers will appear in the picture. The
appearance of Alice Faye with the
boys should add to the fun of the
picture.
Gertrude Niesen’s first song num
ber in “Top of the Town” is “Where
Are You,” her lucky number. Jimmy
McHugh and Harold Adamson
wrote it for her three years ago, to
use when auditioning for a big com
mercial radio program. She got the
job. Last fall while in Hollywood
for a vacation after a strenuous
stretch on the radio, she sang it at
a party and was immediately of
fered a screen contract by produc
ers present.
While producers of “Gone With
the Wind” are still arguing over
who should play the leading roles,
Paramount is stealing a march on
them. They have bought a story
called “Gettysburg” which has the
same setting and similar characters
and are putting it into production at
once.
As a fitting salute to Spring, War
ner Brothers have released “The
King and the Chorus Girl” and Unit
ed Artists have put out “History Is
Made at Night.” They are both
giddy and romantic and have set
everyone to arguing over who is
the greater matinee idol, Fernand
Gravet or Charles Boyer. They are
both grand romantic heroes. “The
King and the Chorus Girl” is some
thing of a nine days wonder because
it is a Warner Brothers musical
without a big production number to
interrupt the gaiety. And “History
Is Made at Night” is completely
baffling because it mixes spectacu
lar scenes and grim tragedy with
♦arcical situations.
Talent scouts from the motion
picture studios are suspected of do-
ing their hunting
nowadays in nurser
ies, for suddenly all
Hollywood is in a
dither over child
prodigies. If you
heard Betty Jaynes,
the fifteen-year-old
opera star on Bing
Crosby’s program a

work for Metro-

tically middle-aged, though, com
pared to their newest discovery, for
the new contract player is Suzanne
Larson, aged ten, who will be fea
tured in a musical, “B Above High
C” which gives you an idea of her
voice range.

yES, indeed, fashion is in an ut
-1 terly feminine romancing mood
this spring. Hats gay with ribbons
and flowers and laces, suits pretti
fied with the daintiest frilliest lin
gerie blouses worn for years,
dresses of prints so flowery and mul
ti-colorful as to dazzle the eye and
that which is a sure sign of the re
turn of romanticism in the mode—
the revival of the laciest, the dain
tiest, the most adorable fluffy-ruffle
neckwear and dainty snowy lingerie
touches that even the wildest flights
of one’s imagination might ere de
vise.
And now that we know that frilly,
ultra-feminine neckline and wrist
line fantasies are going to be the
very thing let’s look up some of the
entrancing things which shops are
showing this season. The group pic
tured is typical of the many charm
ing, flattering jabots, collar-and-cuff
sets and "bibs” that smart women
are wearing to give an extra spring
like touch to their tailored silk and
their sheer wool dresses.
In the first place there’s nothing
smarter than finely pleated laces
for neckwear. The good-looking col
lar and cuff set that gives so keen
a fashion touch to the simple crepe
frock worn by the young woman
standing below to the left in the
picture is of a rather heavy lace
in a dark shade of ecru. The V
shaped collar is extremely flattering
and together with its wide cuffs
makes a “picture.” With this lace
three-piece you can give infinite
variety to a winter-weary wardrobe
or it will enhance your newest frock
to a glamorous degree.

Capes, capes and more capes, thus

nounce a vogue of tremendous im
portance this season. Even if you
buy a jacket and skirt suit you are
supposed to buy a stylish smartly
tailored wool cape to wear over it.
The new ensembles are that way

one shown here is of a stunning
black wool fabric for skirt and cape
with jacket of black and white loose

favors a combination of the collar
in Peter Pan effect, the jabot at
the front and a tiny bow of dark
plain material to match her lovely
dress.
An entirely different type of lacy
neckwear is the “bib” or yoke effect
pictured left above. It is one of
those exquisitely fine and beauti
ful accessories that you can wear
with your very best gown in most
ladylike fashion. The lace is a
choice Alencon type with insets of
hand-embroidered batiste as del
icately sheer as chiffon. The lace
is cut in a square with a circular
lace ruffle at the top and another
ruffle following the square outline of
the bib.
Above to the right lavish embroid
ery edged with dainty val lace adds
charm to a band collar with its
tiered ruffles of permanent Swiss or
gandie beautifully flower-embroid
ered. Fine as a cobweb, this im
ported organdie is decidedly prac
tical in spite of its fragile look.
Bows, too, are going to be worn
a lot this season. In fact snowy,
lacy lingerie accents are register
ing for a tremendous vogue, be they
collars, cuffs, dainty gilets with
waistcoat belts that button around
the waist, “bibs,” jabots or any ac
cessory item made of lace, of Swiss
organdie of washable mousseline de
soie or of any delicate sheer and
these will carry a wealth of em
broidery or hand stitchery in many
instances. The new bows now show
ing in endless variety are cunning
on tailored dresses. If they are
not of mousseline or organdie with
lace edgings then they are apt to be
entirely of heavy laces like Cluny
or Irish.

SAILOR HATS AND
TURBANS IN STYLE
By CHERIE NICHOLAS
Where there’s new fashions there’s
always new thrills. Just about the
most exciting thrills registering on
the new season’s program are the
“nifty” little sailor hats and tur
bans that are made of bizarre plaid
or stripe crepes or taffeta silk.
These are the sort that the moment
you see them you make up your
mind in a flash that your happiness
depends on acquiring just such a
chapeau. The sailors are covered
as smooth as glass with the striped
silk (or the plaid) with perhaps a
little whirligig of ribbon for a finish
or a rakish wee feather; and then as
if that is not enough to entice you,
more than likely a matching scarf
adds to the allure, or if not a scarf,
one of the new romantic gypsy
sashes that ties so nonchalantly
about waistlines these days. Cast
your plainest dark crepe frock un
der the witchery of these plaid or
striped silk accessories and it will
take on untold glory and glamor.

SUNDAY I
chool Lesson
By REV. HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST.
Dean of the Moody Bible Institute
of Chicago.
© Western Newspaper Union.
Lesson for April 25
THE OBEDIENCE OF NOAH
LESSON TEXT—Genesis 8:20-22; 9:8-17.
GOLDEN TEXT—By faith Noah, being
warned of God concerning things not seen
as yet. moved with godly fear, prepared
an ark to the saving of his house. Heb. 11:7.
PRIMARY TOPIC—The Meaning of the
Rainbow.
JUNIOR TOPIC—The Rainbow’s Message.
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—
Following God's Plan.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—
Deliverance through Obedience.
The “book of beginnings” (Gene
sis) has already brought before us
the creation of the world, the origin
of man, the entrance of sin into the
world, and God’s judgment upon
that sin. In chapter 4 we find the
first murder. Cain, who brought an
offering before God which was not
acceptable, murdered his brother
Abel, whose offering pleased God.
Strange it is that man has it in
his heart to hate those who expose
his sin by their godly life.
God does not leave himself with
out a witness in the earth. The
God-fearing line of Seth appears.
There are always those who have
not bowed the knee to the Adver
sary. Consider the astonishment
of Soviet officials at the deep-seated
and wide-spread faith in God re
vealed in their recent census.
But sin again lifts its ugly head
and ere long God is driven to the
necessity of judgment upon man
kind. Read the terrific indictment
of humanity in Genesis 6:5-7. It is
still true that the heart of man
apart from God’s grace is "des
perately wicked” (Jer. 17:9). Well
does a contemporary writer say
that even modern “psychology has
unveiled the dismal and sinister
depths in human nature. Man can
no longer flee from reality into
the romantic refuge of his own
heart; for the human heart has be
come a house of horrors in whose
murky recesses man cannot erect
for his solace either a shrine or
a citadel. Man is bad; he is a sin
ner. The depths of his meanness
are being unveiled in a ghastly way
in individual and social life in these
times. What a contemporary ring
there is about these old biblical
judgments on mankind! (Gen. 6:5,
6; Isa. 1:6.) What a tremendous ar
raignment of sinful human nature is
Paul's prologue in Romans 1”
(Mackay).
So God sent a flood upon the
earth. It used to be fashionable to
doubt the story of the flood, but
archaeology has joined hands with
geology and history to agree with
Scripture. The facts are available;
let us use them.
“But Noah found grace in the eyes
of the Lord” and prepared an ark
at God’s command. Here again it
can be demonstrated that the ark
was sufficiently large to meet the
need of Noah and all his family,
with the animals and their food, and
with room to spare. It is significant
that the proportions of the ark were
those of a well-planned boat. God
knows how to build, and man does
well to obey his instructions.
The rain came, the fountains of
the deep were opened, and all the
living perished, except those within
the ark. What an instructive type
of our safety in Christ is the ark!
But our lesson concerns primar
ily what occurred after Noah came
forth from the ark and presented
himself before God.
I. An Obedient Man (8:20-22).
To come before God with accept
able worship, man must come with
clean hands. The question is not
whether he is brilliant, learned, or
of high position. The one thing that
counts is obedience. When such a
man offers the worship of his heart
before God, it goes up to him like
a sweet savor.
11. A Covenant-Keeping God (9:8-
17).
The beautiful rainbow in the cloud
became a token of God’s promise,
and the visible assurance to “all
flesh” that the judgment of the flood
will not be repeated. Never again
will seed time and harvest, nor any
as the orderly processes of nature,
fail throughout the whole earth.
What a gracious God we have!
And what a pity that men presume
upon his goodness. Because he
“maketh his sun to rise on the evil
and on the good, and sendeth rain
on the just and on the unjust”
(Matt. 5:45), men not only forget
that he is the giver of all things,
but assume that they may sin
against him with impunity. Let us
remind them that it is the clear
teaching of Scripture that “every
one of us shall give account of him
self to God” (Rom. 14:12).
Well Spent Days
Oh, what a glory doth this world
put on, for him who with a fervent
heart goes forth under the bright
and glorious sky, and looks on
duties well performed, and days
well spent.—Longfellow.
Purity of Heart
A holy life is the very gate of
heaven; but let us always remem
ber that holiness does not consist in
doing uncommon things, but in do
ing everything with purity of heart.
—Cardinal Manning.

Not to Be Regarded Lightly
When we give a promise wo
consider it a small outlay, but
often large demands are made
upon it.
We like traditions if they are
picturesque.
The wasp makes no honey, but
it is quite as busy as the bee. The
bee, you see, understood how to
get the praise and poetry of man.
Civilization is self-control. Self
expression, as interpreted, is
merely “letting yourself go” and
making a mess for yourself and
everybody else.
When temptation refuses to pur
sue you, it knows you don’t caro
much for it, anyway.
We wonder if silver-tongued
orators at times have difficulty
in finding something to be silvery
about.
