If you like your f1lmfare dished up in splendidly acted, fairly di- rected fashion, with generous dash of light com cdy, and seasoned with tender romance, you won't want to miss "Call It A Day" which comes 10 Warmers State theater tomorrow for four days.
 Ian Hunter and Frieda Inescort (both stars of tho London and New York stages) are suburban Brit ish couple, and Olivia de Havilland (that sky-rocketing young star) Bonita Granville (of 'These Three" fara) and David Willes Juvenile British actor) are their children. They form nice, normal, well- mannreed family whose lives have always gone smoothly until their emotions are turned topsy- -turvy by the influence of the first day of Spring.
 Ian Hunter very nearly strays into an affair with an actress client, played by Marcia Ralston. His wife is "propositioned" by Roland Young, whom she meets through his sister, 8 role played by the inimitable Alice Brady.
 As for the younger generation Olivia de Havilland conceives 8 wild passion for the married artist who is doing her portrait. The son finds unexpected charms in Anita Louise. the girl who lives next door.
 However, don't get the impression that 1t is deep nelodrama. It's comedy,-gay comedy, of everyday human beings who happen to get bitten by the "spring buzz" . story of folks who might be your neigh bOrs.
 The companion feature will be T Promise To Pay with Chester Nor ris, Leo Carrillo. Helen Mack and others.
 It's the story of the most ruthless racket ever conceived by the crim- inal mindl The vicious loan shark mobsters who squeeze millions from the innocent public every year.
 A daring, dynami, drama flrl- earthing startling secrets that will make the master minds behind this shocking crime syndicate cringe with fear when they learn that their closely guarded scheme of organixa- ton is known and revealedl
 Exciting entertainment when the young clerk dares to testify against the huge racket ring at the risk of his lifel
 Performances tonight conclude the engagement of '.Internes Can't Take Monevs with Joel MCcrea and 8ar- bara stanwyck, also "Trcubls m Morocco" with Jack Holt.

 William Powell smokes a lot of cigarets but hates cigars. In the "Candlesticks" picture, though, he has to smoke part of one. So a property man wrapped one end in cellophane, put that end in his mouth, lit the cigar and kept 1t glowing until the actor was ready.

 Anna Sten, 20 pounds lighter than when she appeared in '"The We'd ding Night" ip 1885, will resume stardom in an item titled Cor geolls."
 John Considine, who produced "Sequoia," is toying with the idea of an imaginative animal picture in color, and with the beasts talking.
 And talking of talking, an extra named Freddie Hermano has hao steady employment as an extra for 16 years and hasn't said word. He's a deaf mute.
 JAW-BREAKER
 Most actors are tripped up by lines they know best. Take a com mon legal phrase, incompetent. ir- relevant, and "immaterial." After several retakes on a fiery courtroom speech in "The Deep South" Otto Kruger wound up thus: T object on the grounds of incompetence, ir- relevancy, and immaterialisticism. The tired company collapsed in hys- tericS.

 Your Children
By Olive Roberts Barton

QuarrelS among children in the family are largely matter of habit. A child becomes so accustomed to taking exception to every move made by, the others that about half the time he fusses without one thing to fume about.
 Children d. get jealous of each other of course, and they are also greatly afraid of being imposed upon. What is more common than to hear Johnny growl, Send Bob this time. I went last. He never takes his turn?"
 But by and large, most of them have no real grievance. Their little .Spats are mostly on top. The child who has a real hurt, and who is actually unhappy, is unusually silent about 1t, or else he tries to cover up, by behavior en- tirely unrelated to his trouble.
 Whatever the cause may be for the every-few-minutes wrangling, a mother gets nervous just the same. There are homes where to try to read or think is utterly iln- possible. Even to do housework in such an atmosphere, is aneternal attempt to maintain composure and peace of mind.
 So Customary They're Unnoticed She may become so accustomed to the continual warning that she doesn't actually notice 1t, but merely wonders why she herself f so irritable and tired.
 Without any word to her family she might begin in her own quiet way, to observe the chief causes o1 battle. It may take days, but with her attention fixed on each child it should not be difficult to find the l trouble.
 In most cases she is likely to dis cover that habit and chip-carryine are all there is to the matter. Il this is true and she suspects no i'm | position, or teasing or Overbearine behavior on the part of any Of them then the situation calls for no illl-

"Too many women clean the faces and necks haahazardly in tll morning" says a famous skin ex pert. ''They seem to think that thorough nightly cleansing is sum cient. This is fallacy, of course"
 Naturally, since there is nS makeup and very little dust or dirI on your face in the morning, the first cleansing need not be long oI involved. But it should be thorough and have a stimulating effect on tht complexion.
 The moment you get up, smooth cleansing cream on face and throal and leave it on while you bruSl your teeth and start the coffee. Nov dip rough wash-cloth in very ho| water, wiring it as dry as possibll and press it against your face and neck. Repeat three times. This genS tie steaming stimulates circulation dissolves the cream and reduce' morning puf1lness around the eyes Using the same warm cloth, wipf upward and outward until ever trace of cream has been removed and complexion is glowing. Rins' several times with cold water (dt not rub ice on your skin, applt makeup.
 At night, wash with soap ar} water, rinse, smooth on cleansinn cream. Give the cream chance tf melt, remove the excess with cleanS ing tissues, the remainder with clean, coarse bath towel. Dig tn towel into the side of your nose across your chin, wherever pores ai rather large. Rub it upward froi collar bones to hairline, behind ear the back of the neck. Don't hs afraid of stretching or injurin your complexion. The skin really quite elastic, and it needs cleansinN and stimulation more than pettin and pampering.

~'-~~N~e
 A large wedding in a small house is often anything but merry. If you like crowds, then plan to cele- brate the big day under the equip ped and spacious care of a good hotel. In the end your bills will probably be no higher and everyone will be happier.
 Make your plans far in advance. Discuss them with the banquet de- partment of the hotel you have chosen.
 Heres what I'd suggest" says Oscar of the Waldorf, an old hand at making wedding parties out standingly pleasant. "If canapes and cocktails or sherry are served first, then the first course for the wedding breakfast should be soup. If no cock tails are served, then begin with a fruit cup.
 Main Course Must Be Delicate
 "After the soup comes fish or egg entree, then the main course. It may be squab, guinea hen or breast of chicken with dainty vege- tables such as asparagus tips or small fine peas. Remember" this noted host warns, "that the main course at the wedding breakfast, served between noon and 1 p. m., must be something light and deli cate; certainly never beef, pork or lamb"
 He says that salad is optional and may be omitted. Dessert calls for imagination. Ice cream is used most frequently in shape of birds, oells' flowers, hearts or cupids.
 "I always like to see an excellent sauce for the ice" Oscar says. Our ing breakfast, different wines are served with the different courses and with the ice coffee. After the ice. the bride cuts her cake. II there is a musical trio, they should play softly so as not to make con- versation difficult"
 From his long experience with large weddings, Oscar adds these valuable hints: the bride and bride groom stand in the reception room with the parents of both. Often however the father of the groom IS considered just guest" and the father of the bride more as a "host. while the young couple and the two mothers receive.
 Cards Pair Off Guests
 when the gentlemen guests check their coats, they are presented with cards bearing the name of the lady they are to escort to break fast. When breakfast is announced, the orchestra plays the wedding march and the guests enter the the room, the bride and groom and wedding party last to enter. At one large table, the bride and groom are seated at the head of it, the wedding party next to them, and the parents next and then the guests. Or there may be several ta- bles. The bride and groom and party sit at one, the parents and close friends at another, and the guests at other tables.
 The bride and groom frequently leave first after the breakfast. The brides parents are the last to leave and not until they have seen the last guests oil. All expenses and ar- arrangements for the wedding break

CONTRACT BRIDGE By VIM. E. MCKINNEY
 Secretary of the American Bridge League
Defense Squeezes Self - Player Fails to Heed Partner
 Distress Signals, Giving Away Easily De- featabe Contract

It is not always the declarer who squeezes defending player. Quite often bridge players own partner consciously or unconsciously kill his partners hand and helps the declar- CT make what otherwise would be an impossible contract. This is known as the suicide squeeze"
 In today,s hand South reached an ambitious contract to three no trump. It is not at all difficult to see that, the contract is much too high, as apparently South can take only seven of the needed nine tricks. Four diamonds would have been a better contract.
 The king of hearts was opened and was permitted to hold the trick. The queen of hearts was con- tinued and East was forced to dis card. He chose the club 10.
 Here. perhaps. West should have
