THE Women’s National Radio
committee has named the
Rudy Vallee hour as the best
variety program on the air, and
Bing Crosby’s loyal host of fol
lowers are so upset that letters
of protest are pouring into radio
stations and newspaper offices.
Correspondents agree that the Val
lee program is always a grand show,
but they point out that Bing's hour
gives much greater variety, since
it consistently includes the greatest
musicians as well as popular songs,
comedy and dramatic sketches.
Warner Brothers cabled Errol
Flynn in Ireland to return to the
studio at once to
start work in a new
picture, but the ca
ble was undelivered
as the adventurous
Errol had already
set out for Spain.
First news from
there was that h e
had been injured in
a rebel attack and
for a few hours
groups of anxious
friends stood discon
solately around the
Errol Flynn
studio talking about
what a grand guy he is. Nobody
felt like working until the welcome
news came that his injury was
slight and that he would be able
to ’eturn soon.
AS summer approaches and radio
programs call it a season, radio
singers look wistfully toward the
hig rewards of Hollywood engage
ments. Two who have already land
ed engagements are Jessica Drago
nette and Lanny Ross. Miss Drago
nette will appear in a Bobby Breen
picture called “Make a Wish.” Lan
• ny Ross will join the ever-growing
ranks of Grand National company.
Victor Schertzinger, who composed
the never-to-be forgotten "Mar
cheta” and who is a splendid direc
tor believes he has a story that will
catapult Ross right into the front
ranks of film idols.
Being just the husband of a popu
lar Hollywood actress is no career
for an ambitious young man, ac
cording to Leonard Penn, who left
the New York stage to come to
Hollywood with Gladys George, and
George McDonald who left his news
paper job when, he married Jean
Parker. Penn is being tested by
M-G-M, and George McDonald is
being tested by Paramount.
Gail Patrick, the only survivor
at the Paramount studio among
all the girls who won in their
“Panther Woman" contest a few
years ago, has at last attained real
recognition. Not only will she be
featured in “Artists and Models"
with Jack Benny, she will get one of
the best dressing rooms on the lot.
It was built years ago for Pola
Negri and was later occupied by
Clara Bow.
Every time Sam Goldwyn spends
a few days away from the studio,
he catches up on all the newest
national fads and promptly ar
ranges to use them in pictures. Re
covering from a cold at Tucson,
Arizona, a few days ago, he was
impressed by a trailer camp.
Promptly he bought a story called
“Heaven on Wheels” and cast Bar
bara Stanwyck for the lead.
. Fred Astaire is so determined to
nave Carole Lombard in the first
film that he makes
without Ginger Rog- ,
ers that he is post
poning production
until she is free.
And James Stewart
is so determined to
play opposite Ginger
Rogers in her solo
starring vehicle that
he is pleading with
M-G-M to release
him from working |
in Luise Rainer’s
next. It is so much 1
fun working with
Astaire or Rogers that players are
willing to give up better roles in
order to be with them.
ODDS AND ENDS . . . Dick Foran
■won’t finish any more pictures with an
embrace. It seems that the juvenile audi
ences who so enjoy his pictures shrieked
in derision when he went romantic . . .
M-G-M has thwarted Elissa Landi’s plan
to ride in the hunters' trials at Palm
Springs. They won’t let her risk her neck
while she is making “Thirteenth Chair”
for them . . . Claire Windsor, too long
absent from the screen, will return in sup
port of Constance Dennett in “Topper”
. . . Luise Rainer has dyed her hair
bright red for “The Emperor’s Candle
sticks” and likes it so well she is going
to leave it that way . . . Whenever 20th
Century-Fox needs Wallace Beery for
scenes of “Slave Ship” they page him at
the circus. Ever since the days when he
traveled with a circus as elephant valet,
he has lot ed hanging around the saw

Silk Prints Lead the Style Parade

JUST one dazzling, color-gloried ■
silk print after another is what’s |
happening in the fabric realm this
season. The new prints are more
fascinating than ever, and try to re
sist them and do you? You do not.
The urge for another and another
in your wardrobe ever keeps on
keeping on.
To add to the excitement, couturi
er and dressmaker are devising
ways of making up these silks that
are so artful and fraught with such
high-pressure novelty the world of
fashion is being cast into new throes
of enthusiasm every time a style
parade of last-minute costumes is
staged.
A favorite treatment is pleating
and when you pleat printed silk you
multiply the beauty and intensity
of its coloring to a thrilling degree.
The all-around pleated skirt is a
favorite topic with designers who
are styling the new gowns of silk
print. Even if you are making your
dress yourself it is a good idea to
have the skirt pleated, and it is
almost a certainty that you will be
pleased with results. The charm
ing dinner dress to the left in the
picture is fashioned of a water col
or print silk crepe with separate
jacket and pleated skirt.
Another dressmaker treatment
adding untold interest to print en
sembles is the self-print lining. To
achieve a maximum of practicality
and wearability these coats with
linings matched to the print of the
frock are made reversible. You
turn them inside out and vice versa.
See the idea nicely worked out in
the model centered in the group.
The silk print is highly colorful and
the monotone cloth of the coat re
peats the background tone of the
print.
Then there is this reigning vogue
of the bolero. Dressmakers and de
signers are turning out the bolero
frock of silk print in vast numbers.
You’ll love a print silk bolero frock.
Flattering it will prove to be and
practical. See the model to the right
in this group. Here is a bolero frock

Fancy turns to the southern-belle
type of dress for evening wear.
Here is a charming specimen of the
quaint and picturesque type that is
proving such a general favorite. It
is made of silk taffeta in a delec
table soft-toned medium blue.
Young girls are showing a prefer
ence for sprightly taffeta and they
love the way the little puff sleeves
stand up in lively taffeta manner.
Square necklines are much in evi
dence this season. This one is ac
cented with rhinestone and enamel
flower pins anti there is a match

of feather silk print. The dark
grounds such as this with wide
spaced motif are especially smart
and attractive and wearable. The
bodice buttons to a high neckline.
The bolero has peaked shoulders
and elbow sleeves. Note the red
silk chiffon handkerchief in the but
toned pocket of the bolero. The cir
cular skirt of the dress has em
phasized creases. The straw bonnet
has flowers massed at the front.
Which calls to mind another feature
designers are emphasizing, that of
having flowers somewhere in the
picture that are related in color
to the print of the silk. This may
be a corsage, a gay posy cluster at
the new low of a neckline or it may
be a bouquet played up in con
junction with a vivid gypsy sash
tied at the front.
One of the outstanding innova
tions in the realm of print silk cos
tumes is the redingote fashioned of
matching print, the small figured
being smartest for day wear. This
redingote. while it tops off the dress
of self print to a dramatic climax,
will prove one of your happiest pos
sessions to be worn as a separate
coat or wrap over the monotone
crepe cress on cool spring days and
later on serving admirably as a
summer wrap worn with dainty lin
gerie frocks.
It is good style, too, to wear over
your navy or crepe afternoon dress
either a bolero of eye-impelling silk
print or a hip-length jacket if you
prefer. The latter should be slightly
fitted to be up to the mode and
they are especially smart when but
toned down the front.
The silk print idea enters into ev
ery phase of fashion this season.
You are encouraged to wear gay
print from the tiptop of your head
down to your feet.

GLOVES TO MATCH
YOUR SPRING SUIT
By CHERIE NICHOLAS
Cloth gloves to match spring suits
are the latest news from Paris. An
extra piece <of material, ordered
when the suit is bought, can be
made up in any size or style, short
or with deep gauntlet cuffs. Square
fingertips are another innovation.
The finger may be stitched at sides
and straight across the top, giving
a casual, out-of-doors look, especial
ly popular in gloves of doeskin or
chamois.
Half - finger gloves, which made
their appearance last winter in the
guise of lace mitts to go with gowns
of the southern belle type, are now
an established vogue. They are
shown in pigskin and chamois for
sports wear, and in suede for dress.
The gloves extend as far as the
finger-joint, revealing brightly pol
ished nails. Very convenient when it
comes to picking up a dropped coin,
fitting a key or writing out a check.
Polish in cardinal or burgundy
may be worn to match or contrast
with the gloves.
Further independence in glove
fashions is exhibited in the uncon
ventional treatment of seams along
the back of the hand. These vary
from two or three seams running
across instead of up and down, to
one crosswise seam with two short
ones in the usual direction.
Tiny Watches Are Fitted
to the Latest in Gloves
Small jeweled watches are being
worn everywhere but on the wrist
these days. Some of the new tailored
suits with heavy cuffs have a small
detachable watch encased over the
left wrist.
Many of the new cigarette cases
have small watches fitted on the
outside, while purses and gloves
that are fitted with watches havt
been shown for several months.

chool Lesson
By REV. HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST,
Dean of the Moody Bible Institute
of Chicago.
© Western Newspaper Union.
Lesson for May 2
ABRAHAM A MAN OF FAITH
LESSON TEXT—Genesis 12:1-9; 13:14-18.
GOLDEN TEXT—By faith, Abraham,
when he was called to go out into a place
which he should after receive for an in
heritance. obeyed. Hebrews 11:8.
PRIMARY TOPIC—A Friend of God.
JUNIOR TOPIC—A Hebrew Pioneer.
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC-
Adventurous Faith.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—
Creative Faith.
One of the greatest characters In
all human history comes before us
today in the person of Abraham.
He is venerated by Christian, Jew,
and Mohammedan alike. His per
sonal history is replete with inter
est and instruction. But his claim
to an outstanding place in history
is broader than any of these things,
for he was the one by whom God
called out a nation for himself and
began his dealings in sovereign
grace which continue to our day.
In choosing Abraham God began
the history of the Jewish people,
his chosen nation. They were called
by him to be not only a national
witness to the one true God, but
also to be the repository for his
truth (the Holy Scriptures) in the
earth, and, above all, to be the
channel for the coming of the Re
deemer to the earth.
Our lesson, however, centers on
the faith of Abraham. As the Gold
en Text (Heb. 11:8) indicates, it was
by faith that Abraham responded
to the call of God. That call came
to him in his father’s house in Meso
potamia (Acts 7:2, 3). His partial
obedience brought delay at Haran
(Gen. 11:31), and wasted years, but
in Genesis 12 we find his complete
obedience and resultant blessing.
The study of faith is always fas
cinating. Faith is the thing in man
that pleases God. He is quick to
honor our trust in Him. Unbelief
shuts the door not only to blessing,
but also to usefulness.
I. Faith Calls for Separation, Obe
dience, and Worship.
1. Separation (Gen. 12:1). “Get
thee out” was God’s command to
Abraham. It is his command to his
followers today. “Come out from
among them and be ye separate,
saith the Lord” (II Cor. 6:17). This
is the crying need of the church in
our day. Instead of the church’s
being in the world seeking to win
it for Christ, the world has come
into the church and destroyed much
of its vital testimony.
2. Obedience (Gen. 12:4,5). “So
Abram departed, as the Lord had
spoken.” Faith obeys God, without
question, without hesitation, and
without reservation. We need a re
vival of obedience in the home, in
society, and in our relation to God.
3. Worship (Gen. 12:7, 13-18).
“There builded he an altar unto
the Lord.” Faith in God is far
more than the psychologist's
preachment of self-confidence. It
results in fellowship with God, re
liance upon him, not on one’s own
strength of personality. Faith wor
ships God.
11. Faith Results in Blessing, Pro
tection, and Liberty.
1. Blessing (12:2,3). “I will bless,”
said God. “The Lord’s commands
are rarely accompanied with rea
sons, but they are always accom
panied With promises, either ex
pressed or understood.”
In the case of Abraham the prom
ise was not only to him, and to the
nation of which he was the father,
but to “all families of the earth.”
That promise was fulfilled in the
coming of Christ to earth to be our
Redeemer (Matt. 1:1).
2. Protection (12:3). “I will . . .
curse him that curseth thee.” That
promise to the seed of Abraham
is still true. The nations have
forgotten it in their hatred of the
Jew, but God has not forgotten. The
promise is equally true in the case
of those who follow Christ, “the
son of Abraham.” His protecting
hand is over us even in the dark
hour when it looks as though the
hosts of Satan had conquered.
3. Liberty (13:14-17). “All the
land. . . will I give.” After many
and varied experiences in which Ab
raham proves God’s grace and pow
er, he comes out into a place of
unlimited liberty.
The man who boasts of his “per
sonal liberty,” who feels that he is
free from the “bondage of religion,”
is in fact a slave to the enemy of
his soul. And the man who becomes
“the bondslave of Jesus Christ,” he
alone is free. None is more fet
tered thjin he who shouts “I am
the captain of my fate. I am the
master of my soul.” And none is
so free as he who can say, “Christ
is the Captain of my fate, the
Master of my soul.”
Deciding What Not to Do
Men must decide on what they
will not do, and then they are able
to act with vigor in what they ought
to do.—Mencius.
God’s Way
God can act where we cannot
even think, out of resources that we
know nothing about.
Strength of Character
He who is firm and resolute in
will moulds the world to himself
—Goethe.
AROUND “
the HOUSE
Washing Table Silver—Much of
the work of polishing table silver
can be saved if the silver is
placed in hot soapsuds immedi
ately after being used and dried
with a soft clean cloth.
• • •
Melting Chocolate—Chocolate is
easy to burn, and for that reason
should never be melted directly
over a fire. Melt it in the oven
or over a pan of hot water.
• • •
Stuffed Orange Salad — Allow
one orange for each person to be
served. Cut through the skin
three-quarters of the way down in
inch strips, being careful not to
break the strips apart. Remove
orange pulp and cut in neat dice.
Combine with pineapple and
grapefruit dice and fill orange
shell with mixture. Drop a spoon
ful of heavy mayonnaise on top
of each salad and garnish with a
maraschino cherry. Another good
mixture for stuffing the orange
shells is a combination of orange
sections, dates stuffed with cream
cheese and nut meats. Mask with
mayonnaise.
* • •
To Remove Threads— When
basting sewing material, try plac
ing the knots of the thread on
the right side. They will be easier
to pull out when the garment is
finished.
• • •
Jelly Sauce—One glass jelly
(crab-apple, red currant, grape,
etc), quarter cup hot water, one
