STAR HIT, PARAMOUNT'S ''THE

WARMER STATE ON SATURDAY

The new trend in pictures, as
recently described by B. p. Schulz

when he said that "dialog should
only be used to enhance the dram
attic value of the story" is strik-
ingly exemplified in 1.-THE Man I

ners' State on Saturday.
Ernst Lubitsch's first dramatic
talking production will reach the
screen with far less dialog than
the other big pictures made since
the advent of sound.
"Dialog Is important when 1t
means something, yet only where 1t
is vital to the story" says the
director who made several drama
tic silent pictures but whose talk
ing productions to date have been
sophisticated, "The Smiling Lieu
tenant" Monte Carlo" and THE

Page after page Of the script of
the after-the-war romance laid in
France and Germany was bare Of

trend in providing the kind Of en-

three fourths of the beef as best
he can.
So in order to reduce the meat
bill In g. satisfactory fashion we
must equalize the supply and de-
mand by using the cheaper cuts of
meat. ..
Art In Selecting Meat
The buying as well as the cook
ing enters into the problem of
economy. The study of meat
charts, personal trips to the meat
market, varying the choice of cuts
and trying different methods Of
preparing them are the surest
means Of becoming familiar with
the meat problem.
In choosing meat from a side of
beef, consider the smoothness, COL
or and shape of the whole side.
The best grades of meat usually
come from carcasses that are thick
and plump with a smooth surface.
The wise buyer of beef will see
to 1t that the fat Is almost pure
white. This always indicates a
good grade of beef. Fat, too, must
be found in fairly liberal amounts.
for there is little chance Of get

Mrs johnson and / had another
talk today on the heights ana
weights of children. 1t seems that
while out shopping last Saturday
with Mary and Claire she weighed
them both on one OF those ma
chimes which has a list of average
weights for different ages, and to
her horror, both Mary and Claire
were way below the average. Nat
urally she was worried, and like
the sensible mother she is, came
right to her family physician to
talk 1t over.
Knowing that the Johnson fam
lily, like SO many others, had re-
Gently been obliged to cut down
expenses, 1 was not surprised when
Mrs johnson brought up the Ques-
ton of diet. She had had to simpli-
fly the daily menu and was afraid.
she said, that Mary and Claire
couldn't be getting enough to eat.
What did I think about it?
Before going into the question
of adequate diet explained to her
about those bothersome height
weight-age tables. I told her that
they were never intended, origin
ally, for individual case, exceut as
the toughest kind of guide. They
merely show the average weight
anr the average height for children
in general. I explained how experts
compiled the tables by taking a
large number of children of the
same age, weighing and measuring
them, adding all the weights to-
gether and the heights together,
and then dividing the answers by
the number of the children con-
cerned. For instance, in a test re-
Gently made, one hundred and
eighty-five boys, each eleven years
old and each Sc inches tall were
weighed. The average weight was
II pounds but the boys individually
weighed anywhere from go to ITO
pounds-and they were all healthy
youngsters. The fact therefore that
Mary Johnson was ten pounds and
Claire eight pounds under the aver
age weight for their age did not
necessarily mean that anything was
wrong.
To dispel any lingering doubts
that might be in Mrs Johnson's
mind I used a very homely smile
asked her If she would expect
to be able to get as many sheets
and pillow cases ON to O. shelf one
foot wide as she could on to a
shelf two feet wide. OF course she

der is to chop 1t so that the con-
nective tissues are completely
broken up. This makes the food
chopper an effective aid in reduc-
ing the meat bill as well as add
ing variety to menus. After the
meat is chopped it can be cooked
as quickly as a tender cut.
Other Routes to Tenderness
Another way to make meat ten
der is to marinate it in a French
dressing. Mix 1 tablespoon of vim
egar or lemon Juice with table,
spoons salad oil, IL teaspoon salt
and 18 teaspoon pepper. Put
meat in an earthenware bowl and
pour dressing over it. Let stand
several hours, turning to be sure
that every part of 1t Is covered
with the dressing. This marinade
also acts as preservative If meat
must be kept and there is danger
of its spelling.
Pounding with a ma1let or the
edge of plate also makes the
meat more tender. This breaks
the tough flbers very much as
chopping does. Round and flank
steaks often are treated this way
and may then be pan-broiled and
so do away with the long slow
cooking that otherwise would be
necessary.
All of these methods that have
been suggested use very little fuel,
Ino more than Is required to cook
the naturally tender and expensive
cuts.
Seasoning also is an important
factor in the successful cooking of
the cheap cut. Tomatoes, onions,
celery, turnips, carrots, bay-leaf
cloves, summer savory, parsley
green pepper mustard, garlic and
vinegar all help in adding piquancy
and interest to the cheap cuts OF
meat.

Poets have sung many times Of
the lightness of step, tn. grace of
movement. the buoyant lift of GER
tain women's walks.
You know yourself how much
you enjoy watching a woman who
skins the earth instead of pound
ing it-and women who seem to
float instead of taking steps when
they dance.
This business of walking Is most
important this year. Clothes de-
mand that they be carried with
distinction and grace. That Is the
only way they look their best.
1t Is not how much you walk
each day that determines whether
or not you grow graceful doing It,.
1t Is how you walk while walking.
You never can achieve a grace
full walk IL you consider your step
as starting right with your foot or
even with your hip. Your leg mo-
ton really starts above the waist
line, through that muscular Sec
ton of your body that you have
been exercising.
A famous dancer once told me
that she took each step with no
thought Of her leg at all. The mo-
lions all started with the muscles
working through her rib section
| with her legs just swinging freely
from her hip-joints.
To move in this easy fashion,
you must strengthen the msucles
through your trunk. Then prac-

Hold yourself erect, with your
body lifted well out Of your hips
Place your hands with the right

in a mood to walk right again.

Feel the muscles pull under the
