Simone Simon has an equally odd ’ first name, but, according to the studio fan mail department, has received only one letter promising to name a baby after her. The umpteenth rumor on the Paulette Goddard picture is that Chaplin definitely will put it into production in February. Mean ? while, he may dash over to St. Moritz for the holidays. You also hear that Paulette was offered $30,000 for the Scarlett O'Hara role, but that Chaplin refused to let her go for such a sum . . . Mr. Selznick wouid deny this, I imagine. A man who refused to give his name called Shirley Ross on the “Big Broadcast” set and asked her leg size and her favorite colors in hose. Studio attributes the call to a slick stocking salesman, who is canvassing Hollywood swains for their Christmas business. He offers to supply the leg size and favorite colors of any cinema beauty.

Show will be gy:en dur- j ' | Ing my visit to Decatur next Mon-I •jday. If the boys and girls remain : las good this week as they have I been in the past. I may have a surprise for them. Your friend, SANTA CLAUS ' Santa Claus hinted a surprise today for the boys and girls of Adams | county for ills visit here next Week. In a later airmail letter to the ' Decatur Junior Chamber of Com- > merce he did not enlarge upon the | I subject. It is believed he will tell about it in a letter or radiogram 1 later this week. The letter received today from , Santa Claus read: Dear Friends: "When I started on my trip to De- j catur from Toy latnd, 1 had expect-1 ed only to visit with the boys and • I girls of Adams county, let them i t meet my regular helpers and take I ■ 11 hair Christmas orders. After travel- j 1 ling about half*way, so many interesting characters agreed to accom- • tpany me, I asked the Decatur Jun-1 ' ior Chamber of Commerce, if 1 1 might not put on a show for the ' I boys and girls since 1 had received ( , fine reports on their behavior, "The Decatur Junior Chamber of Commerce has informed me that all arrangements for the show will 'be , made in advance and that the child- j ren will be invited to attend. The , . show will last about an hour and , a half and will immediately follow , . the parade througli the business j district at 7 o'clock. I "Although all members of the,

Some of them come direct from circuses and are enjoying win- | ter vacations away from the "big i tops.’’ Others are from tho Arctic. The rest are my helpers from Toy Land. 1 thought It best to let them practice together for a few days in 'order that the performance may run j off smoothly, "Here on tho Hudson Bay coast ; H is below zero and no green plants or trees are visible except the pine trees. We are sleeping under leantos with pine houghs for beds. Tills may not seem so comfortable, but after a hard day in the sub zero weather we all sleep like logs in I the cold clean air. Our cheeks are rosy. "The only thing we have to fear lis frost bite. If we see the noses, ears or fingers of any of our coni-; pan ions'begin to turn white, we iniI mediately begin rubbing snow over the .part, because it is getting frost bitten. One can’t feel frost bite un[til tlie flesh begins to thaw out. j when it feels like thousands of ; need'es. "Tomorrow, 1 will tell you how our Alaskan huskies keep warm when they sleep.

Illi 3 SV di ® ‘ r ~ HELP STOP RUST and CORROSION With Fast-Starting, Lubricating Gasoline Every gallon of Tydol, the modern winter motoi fuel, contains a special top« cylinder oil. It spreads a posi« tive film of oil over valves, pistons and upper-cylinders. It gives these parts constant protection from the evils of “Cold Sweat’’—from the costly drag of rust and corrosion. But that’s not all. Tydol can and does start hard-to-start cars in a splitsecond. That, too, is worth getting. And Tydol gives you both—at no extra cost. • The next cold morning you start your motor, hot vapors will strike told metal. Condensation will take place. You will see clouds of steam »nd drops of water pour out of the exhaust. That’s “Cold Sweat"! You only see it... but your motor feels It. You can measure in a drinking glass the water that accumulates from “Cold Sweat” outside your motor. But inside your motor, this water, unless checked, rusts and corrodes valves and other vital parts. ELBERSON Service Station Decatur, Ind. Cow IMf by Tib. Walor A.iuileod OU Coaipi,,/
