heart chat over the radio
ono evening during the popular Trueheart mu-
steal hour lis $3.50 proposition. The hus-
band and wife should share equally the work
and responsibilities, the pleasures and ulumphs.
When one does all the pulling in the marital
traces, and his partner lagS, there Is bound

perfect domestic felicity.
Too many folks, alas, go into marriage to
see what they can get out of 1t. Ihey should
sec what they can put into it.
Happiness my dear friends is not some
thing that you get-it is something that you
give. I shall try to remember that when
marry.
First of all, man, but, secondly, !
am an artist. No true artist can labor minus
inspiration. My wife shall be my inspiration.

Douglas Trueheart, time Jerry Barnes,
an humble bakers helper, but now King of
the Accordion, radio star, Silver-voiced tenor
of Broadway, song composer, orchestra leader
and Sir Galahad extraordinary melli1uouSly
continued with his homily

secretly consider as my potential wife. Always
I have searched for my dream girl. Always.
But in the commerce of love only heart can
buy heart, and never yet in all due modesty,
have 1 felt that rhapsodic, responsive Tilt of
divine ardor come to my soul when glancing
at girl
Personally I prefer blondes-slender blondes
Nothing, to my whimsical idea, cramp style
like fat 1 like a girl who is vivacious, intelli-
gent and ambitious"
1.-The girl I marry will dress smartly read
much, converse pleasingly, and entertain gra-
ciously. She will practice the art of camarad-
erie, the basical secret of successful connubial
union"
MurieI toned down the radio the famous
accordion of Douglas Trueheart, the muted
strains of his orchestra in the background,
swept into the seductive ballad, Wont You Be
My Sweety-Sweet?" and turned again to her
patron. iona had a far-away look in her pale
blue eyes.

"Muriel you know, I've got to cut out eating
so much custard pie I declare why is it that
the things we like the best hurt us the most?
But ba TX home in Iowa. confidentially, Il was

for JeG to mix some cocktails. And say, Muriel,
what do you think of these new reducing ma

Douglas Trueheart did in the natural course
of theatrical events, come to Hollywood to make
a picture a musical romance with his celebrat-

months later during the Trueheart radio hour,

beauty, true beauty.

the first reason why fell in love with
iona Nichols, the girl 1 am going TO marry.
"She fits accurately my ideas of what con-
stitute true beauty-beauty that lives glamor-
ously lives, and gloriousy inspires. Truly, she

"She unselfishly plans, dear iona does, to
renounce her movie career and to devote herself
