4 Costly Separation
X Picturiing Lincoln
BY Virginia Vale :

IND Josephine, the Tat
~ tooed Jalopy," happen to
come your way on her return
journey from Hollywood to
Hartford, Conn?
If she didn't, you ought to
hear her story. 1t is really
the story of two young men,
Frank and Jack Pinney Of
Hartford, who paid $13.95 for
the ancient car (born in 1929 and
set out for Hollywood. They took
along some white paint, and star
tied the movie center by requesting
movie stars and celebrities to grasp
paint brush and autograph Jose
phine.
They were sensation. Josephine
was soon covered with names, and
the owners refused an offer of $4,000
for her, it's said. And the Motion
Pictures Greatest Year representa-
tives were delighted with them;
they've become unofficial goodwill
ambassadors for the industry.
They ran into one difficulty; peo-
pie whose autographs didn't mean
much were all too obliging about
scrawling their names on Josephine.
The Pinneys let them do it, and,
since Josephine's space was limited
and they had to go in for big names
only, they'd wipe off the undesira-
bles with bit of turpentine and
then tackle somebody who meant
something to them. Of course, they
may thus have obliterated sigma
lures of people, now unknown, who
will be stars before the car is a
year older, but that couldn't be
helped.

New Stdr Appears
In Style Horizon

When you read about the new
monastic silhouette as you no doubt
will, since it is a new and highly
important star arising in the style
armament, perhaps it will add in
terest to become acquainted in adj
vance with outstanding features of
this significant trend.
Explaining briefly, the basic idea
is one-piece dress Ono scanning at
the waistline) with the small waist
contour achieved via the belt or Cir
die or as adjusted by the wearer.
Indications are that the influence of
the one-piece cut Tin many instances
a bias cut) will be widely reflected
in many types of garments, notably
day and evening dresses, coats, and
costume tunics.

Beware Coughs
from common colds
That Hang On

No matter how many medicines
you have tried for your common
cough, chest cold, or bronchial irri-
tation, you may get relief now with
Circumcision. Serious trouble may
be brewing and you cannot afford
to take @ chance with any remedy
less potent than Creomulsion, which
goes right to the seat of the trouble
and aids nature to soothe and heal
the inflamed mucous membranes
and to loosen and expel germ
laden phlegm.
Even If other remedies have,failed,
don't be discouraged, try Creomul-
sion. Your druggist is authorized to
refund your money If you are not
thoroughly satisfied with the bene-
fits obtained. Creomulsion is one
word, ask for it plainly, see that the
name on the bottle is Creomulsion,
and you'll get the genuine product
and the relief you want. (Adv.)

There's something about the radio
serial, "Pepper Young's Family"
that brings luck to those who have
anything to do with it.
Originally it was called "Red Da-
WIS.," and in it's second year young
actor who wasn't getting along too
well was engaged to play the role
of "Red." His name was Burgess
Meredith. Broadway producers and
Hollywood executives heard of the
program, listened to it-and first
thing he knew, he was success on
the stage. Then he began to do
picture occasionally; remember
him in "Winterset," his first big
one?
Later, Martha Scott was engaged
to play bits in the serial. And Mar
tina landed in a stage play, "Our
Town." which was one of the years
biggest hits of last season, and is
still playing.
