Today's celebration was carefully planned by recovery leaders and was officially proclaimed Indiana Recovery Day by Gov. Paul V. McNutt. It signalized the dawning of a new era in the war on depression. But it was marked with the same degree of spontaneity that prevailed in the impromptu celebrations when the World War was ended in 1918. WuT.e the major meeting of the state was being held in Indianapolis, with National Recovery Administration officials making the principal speeches, similar celebration were in progress throughout the state. Many business and industrial concerns closed their doors early to permit employes to participate in the parades and attend the I speaking programs.

Her first assignment under her new contract, and this shows the measure i of her success, will be a full-Hedged feminine lead in “Odd Thursdays.” And she gets to play opposite Fox’s romantic ace, Warner Baxter. Os course, she didn’t just step right into this. Fox tried her out as an ingenue in Will Rogers 1 picture, “Doctor Bull.” Then they gave i her a sophisticated role in “Walls of Gold.” It was the rushes from this I picture that brought the long-term I offer.

VS et leaders estimated a victory of upward tioui two to one. Greatest wet strength was centered along the gulf coast and in the southern part of the state. The , Panhandle plains country is the ( principal dry stronghold. All leading cities, with the possible exception ot Dallas, long a dry fortress, were expected to vote 2 to 1, or greater, majorities for re- ' peal. Even Dallas, wets declare, will be in the wet parade. Texas has been dry as a state since 1918.

At . any rate, Lilian plans to take the i first boat for Europe as soon as she can get a vacation from the Fox studio. The most affiazing sartorial display Hollywood has seen in months is that of Achmed Abdullah, who has come out here to write for Paramount. The author made his first appearance on the lot wearing a bowler hat, a monocle, a melon pink shirt, a yellow tie, a camel’s hair sport coat, brown plaid trousers, two-toned brown sport shoes, brown . spats and a stick hung from his wrist with a leather thong.

MARY LOU GOES SHOPPING SHE is only eight, but even at this tender age Mary Lou is a daily customer at the neighborhood stores. Perhaps it is a package of crackers, and a pound of cofl’ee at the groceP’s. Perhaps it is some tooth-paste or toilet soap at the drug store. Os course Mary Lou doesn’t decide on what she is going to buy. Her mother writes a list — this brand of crackers, this brand of coffee, this make of tooth-paste, this kind of soap. She knows the prices, and gives Mary Lou just enough money, with an extra penny or two, perhaps, to spend for herself. Buying is just as simple and easy as that because of just one thing — Advertising. Advertising has given all of us a lot to be thankful for. Because of advertising, people in Texas know about and buy Michigan motor casts. People in New Hampshire buy oranges raised in Florida and California. Because of advertising, merchants and manufacturers are forced to improve their products. It has standardized quality. It has increased consumption and thereby lowered costs. It promotes competition and thereby keeps dealers and merchants wide awake to secure for you the most for your money. But best of all it writes “Finis” on the business career of any merchant or manufacturer who attempts to fool the public or give them less than value received. READ THE ADVERTISEMENTS *
