It could happen only tn Hollywood. Ray Walker, making “Loud Speaker’’ for an independent com pany, needed a flower for his button hole. The prop-man rushed out, picked the first one he saw. Every thing went well until mid afternoon, when the flower suddenly closed up. The prop-man rushed out once more but was dismayed o find that all the other flowers on the bush had closed up. They were “four o’ciocks. What to do? Close-ups had estab- | lished the flower and no other kind j could be used. In desperation, the prop-mat, pried loose the petals, painted them with collodion and propped them open with wires. And don’t snort It really happened. Movie-makers have collected curi- ' ous data about pre-view audiences. For instance, if they want to give a Fox picture an all-around test, i they take it up for advance show ings at San Jose and Oakland, it has been repeatedly established that the audience at San Jose is an adult one, while that at Oakland is composed largely of youth. If reactions

are favorable at both towns, the company gets behind the picture. Little Janet Snowden, the oil heiress whom 1 unfeeling New York courts ao N far have re 3 fused to give an —annulment of “ he r foreign marriage, has given up the idea of a screen career until she

A friend of Winfield Sheehan. Janet has been promised a screen test as soon as she completes her course. Meanwhile the gossips are guessing their heads off as to whether she’ll marry Agent William Gill. DID YOU KNOW— That Marie Dressier, who now can make them smile or cry, was laughed off the stage at 14 —and not because she was funny?

SgS I <. l »- V> LT? X / \\ \ /

When John the Baptist set out upon his career of preaching he devoted his attention to two 1 things—announcement of the coming of the Messiah and the denunciation of the sins common to his generation. At this time, Herod Antipas was retrarch of Galilee and Peraea. He had taken action to put aside his wife and was living with Herodias, the wife of his brother Phillip.

John the Baptist could not turn the vials of his wrath upon the common folk and overlook such a violation of the laws of God and man as was committed by this ruler. So he proceeded to denounce the tetiarch of his teachings. Naturauy enough, this resulted in his arrest. He was taken to the gloomy prison of Machaerus and confined in an underground dungeon.

It was while John the Baptist was confined in this dungeon that word came to him of the preaching of Jesus, bohn had baptized Jesus to be sure but due to his confinement he had not heard of the great work which was being accomplished. John had preached the coming of the Messiah and had recognized Jesus as such. Yet he sent messengers to question him as to his status.

“Art thou he that cometh or look we for another?" John the Baptist inquired. To this question, Jesus replied to the messengers: “Go and tell John the things which ye hear and see." For Christ at this time was in the second year of his ministry. He had established his headquarters in Capernaum, and he was performing miracles, healing the sick, and emphasizing his message to all.

The “New Deal” Relief And Recovery Organizations A year ago the country turned its eyes anxiously to Washington. Black clouds overhung the economic horizon. Depositors were frantically withdrawing funds from banks where banks were still open; I twelve to thirteen million workers were unemployed: lengthening ' bread lines shuffled their weary way day after day; indexes of industrial and economic life were dropping; farmers, wage earners. - and business men were desperate. A year has passed. But the picI ture is changed. From despair and doubt the people of the United I States realizing the still tremendous problems to be faced—have i regained courage and are looking at the futuie with confidence and I hope. At Washington a tremendous and complex set of administrative machinery lias been put into operation. It takes all the let- | ters of the alphabet Io form tlie initials of the names of these boards, councils, administrations, commissions and bureaus.
