MOYLAN, Pa, April 22.-The Hedge

Rose Valley stage last night. Behold

This circumstance, OF course, has
vast appeal to the modern sense OF
humor. 1t also demonstrates that in
Hollywood business is business, pri-
vate lives are private lives and pub
licity stunts are publicity stunts. When
Henry Fonda and the ex-Mrs. Henry
Fonda CMargaret Sullavan) engage in
a knock-down and drag-out domestic
tussle in 1.-THE Moons Our Home" au-
diences will, of course, wonder just
how much they enjoyed rolling about
beneath the Kleig lights and beating
one another over the head with fur
niture and crockery. Probably very
much.
Again, there is scene wherein Miss
Sullivan says to Mr.. Fonda, Don't
you remember me? I'm the girl you
married"-a line so packed with dou-
Bile entendre, dramatic irony, impli-
cation, innuendo, allusion and signifl-
canoe that those who realize its full
import all at once doubtleSsly will
swoon quietly away. There will be
smelling salts available in the Fox

full eye the approach of Summer, will
find consolation in sundry antics per-
formed by the stars of THE Moons

Month Of May Shows Greatest Gain State
 Has Ever Witnessed
Over 10000 Examinations Held Under Supervision of M. " Department During Past Month Previous
 Month Had Witnessed Decrease

An increase of applicants for ex- aIninations for drivers licenses which is characterized as ''pheno- Hienal" is reported today in a bul- letin covering 6 i've year period, re- leased by the state department of motor vehicles. A chart attached to the report illustrates the remark able increase of applicants during May, of this year. After suffering q decrease of examinations for the months of March and April, a gud- denspurt ensued and on unpreced- eflted monthly total was achieved, far fin excess of any monthly total previously reported. More than half of the 20,075 examinations given the first live months of the year were given during May.
 Formal Report
 Following is the report of the operators examination section:
 During the first i've months of this year we recorded 20,076 exam nations for drivers licenses. Only during the peak years of 1927 and 1929 hes this number been exceed cd. More than half the examina- tionS were given during the month of May. 10,630 examinations were given, three hundred more than for any month in the history of the department, and four thousand more than during May, 1895.
 Remarkable Growth
 The phenomenal growth during the month of May is chiefly accounted for by the change in the date of license expiration from March 1st to May list. Usually there is a rush for licenses just preceding the exs piration date and immediately after the beginning of the new license year. Previously this has been the end of February and the beginning of March. From the low of Feb- ruary the totals would increase each month until the peak is reach- ed in June, the peak week being just before the Fourth of July. This year everything is changed. The numbers examined in March and April were fewer than for either of the preceding two years. Not many applicants appeared during the first three weeks of April. Suddenly the numbers increased as the license date approached.
 Record Marked
 Two thousand examinations were given during the week ending May 2nd. 2,50O were given the next week, 5000 the next. The highest
