CAROLE LOMBARD All member* of the country’s motion picture industry are deeply saddened by the tragic death of Carole Lombard. But thttse who mourn her are proud of the fact that she gave her life in the service of her country. A fitting monument to her memorv will be the continuation of the work she so nobly began. Let her sacrifice not he in vain—let us buy and keep buying defense stamps and bonds. Miss Lombard died for her country—those who live should work and fight for it. MANAGEMENT Adams & Cort Theaters
