Yesterday he signed a new long term contract with M-G-M. Immediately f ‘xSfeS the studio be- tagy ga n searching Fwfor a story which will very likely take him to the South / Seas again. : It was his V filming of “White Shad- ‘ ows in the South w c Seas,” you’ll re- v ’n v call, which Van Dyke launched him as a full-fledged director, Since that production, the wandering director has led screen expeditions into several other diverse corners of the world for M-G-M. One of these jaunts took him into the interior of Africa to shoot “Trader Horn.” He has just got back from his ten-month stay in the Arctic making “Eskimo” for M-G-M. The contemplated new South Seas picture will make him the most travelled director in Hollywood. The Eskimos which W. S. Van Dyke brought to Hollywood to finish scenes with on his Arctic picture think down single tracks. Romeo, one of the tribal youngsters. was being put through his arithmetic by the studio schoolmarm yesterday. He got stuck on subtraction so the teacher showed him ten pennies and asked, “Now, suppose you had these ten pennies and you spent every one of them. What would that leave you with?” “A bar of candy," the kid replied. HOLLYWOOD PARADE. Laurence Stallings and Carey Wilson are high point men in Hollywood’s new game. It is snipeshooting the screens in moving picture theatres with candid cameras to see who can get the most unusual shots. Hollywood Boulevard went quiet at an early hour Sunday morning with many of the film folk going to bed to be up in time for Easter services.

Feeding Fruit Trees, Vines and Bushes

Poor results from fruit tree® in I home gardens are likely to be- due to underfeeding. Such trees are oft.n crowded and have to compete with other plants for nourishment. By proper feeding wood growth is encouraged, your trees are brought more quickly to a beating size anii trees which have reached bearing age are induced to bear larger crops. Improvement in bearing trees is noticed at once after feeding is begun; and the effect is increasingly apparent in the following year owing to increased wood, and improvement in the setting of fruit buds. Fruit buds are foamed a year in advance of bearing, and inadequate food supply at the time the buds are forming is frequently responsible for a small yield. Fruit trees growing in a lawn may be te dthe same way that shade trees are, by making small holes in the ground with a crowbar or auger under the “water drip’’ or outer circle of the tree top, and fill-

Back Yard Design—Ovals

irregular shaped lots caused by diagonal or curving slleels often offer a troublesome problem to the home garden planner. Nothing along the usual lines seems to fit the situation. The oval garden is the best mean* of pulling one of these odd slued lots into a semblance of regularity. An elliptical outline is drawn to as fcreat a width ak the lot permits

six-thirty in the evening. It is just after the homeward-bound rush and L before the crowds begin to come . back to the theatres and night . clubs. A Scotchman in town grows hybrid amaryllis for a hobby. He took some down on the Boulevard a few nights ago to sell them. The crowds all passed the huge, red-plushy, gorgeous blooms without giving them a glance. Finally a woman stopped and said: “My, aren’t they lovely for imitation flowers!” Dancing at the Cocoanut Grove among the Easter parties were Clarence and Mrs. Brown (Alice Joyce), Joan Bennett and husband, Gene Markey. . , .

with the ellipse running the long way of the ground area and mak ■ I ing allowance for space about it Ao be planted with shrubbery. i > Concentric ellipses are drawn with '• cross paths and the garden is ! j laid out. i i The corners may be filled with : shrubbery and the central oval >; space will pull the lot iato an 11 appearance of regularity which is

glaringly lacking with the usual circular or rectangular designs. The laying’out of an ellipse is ias simple as that of a circle. Instead of the one central stake about which the series of circles are drawn there are two “centers" or more properly speaking, foci. A cord is looped about the two focal stakes placed a short dis tance apart the long way of the lot and stretched taut and the ellipse is easily drawn. The dis- ■ tance between the focal stakes or I centers regulates the proportions | | of the ellipses, the closer they are t together the more nearly the el- : lipse approaches a circular outI line. The farther apart the longer the ellipse. The diameter is regulated by the length of the loop about the focal stakes. As with circular and rectangular designs the central oval space may be left open as a small patch of lawn. It may be a flower bed or it may be utilized for an oval pool, a bird bath or sundial. The formal beds constructed of segments of the ellipse in the central portion of the garden are best planted to annuals of a single color with the outer boundary of beds for perennials, bulbs, and a supply ot groups of annuals to, supplement perennials or bulbs I which have passed their blooming period. The oval designs are very useful I for triangular cr trapezoidal spaces and with a little experimenting it 1 will be found that they are as simple to lay out as circular pat- ■ terns. Like the circular garden, the beds need permaneut edgings to retain their outlines from the j encroachment of sod. Brick. ’ stone, concrete, board strips or I some of the close-growing com-1 pact perennials or dwarf shrubs may be used for the purpose. o Lioyd Cowens and family spent Sunday with relatives in Bluffton. 1 V I’VOI\TMI XT OF FVFFt TOH Notice is hereby given, ’i'hsit the undersigned has been appointed Executor of the Estate of John S.

Taking Your DOLLAR To Market EVERY year your family, and every family of your acquaintance, spends about 70 per cent of its income just for living, exclusive of rent — so economic experts tell us. Think what thfs means—seven dollars out of every ten invested in food, clothing, household utilties and all the multitude of things that keep a family comfortable and happy. That part of spending is readily understood. But do you realize that every manufacturer and retailer of these necessities is planning how he can get your dollar? It’s a big job to spend so much money wisely and well. It requires careful business methods to get the best possible returns from each dollar that leaves the family purse. The clever woman goes for help to the advertisement in her daily paper. There she finds a directory of buying and selling. She learns about the offerings of merchants and manufacturers. She compares values. She weighs quality and price. She takes this opportunity of judging and selecting almost everything she needs to feed, clothe, amuse, instruct and generally bring up her family. Do you read the advertisements? You will find them willing and able to serve you in the daily business of pigchase. « I *4«H>WH/ * .. * • • Advertisements are guardians of your pocketbook- read them carefully.
