STATE

Holiday" the years finest com- edy arrived in Waterbury yesterday, and played to capacity audiences at Warner Brothers State theater on the first of its four-day engagement. 1 The film was adapted from the successful stage play of the same name written by Philip Barry and has as its stars Katherine Hepburn and Cary Grant.
 Both stars turn in brilliant per- formances, forming a perfect com- bination, and make the picture de- light and joy from start to finish, one that will be equally enjoyed by both adults and children.
 Miss Hepburn, who with easy grace plays the part of any charac- ter entrusted to her, gives Linda Se- ton brilliant reality as a caste shackled girl who never permits herself heroics but in whose ultimate triumph anyone can feel joy. It is her greatest performance to date.
 Cary Grant is cast as the young man who plans to earn enough money to retire while he is still young, so that he can take :"Holi- day" long enough to think things over. MT. Grants performance matches Miss Hepburn's for sheer ity and brilliance.
 Doris Nolan is the girl with whom Cary Grant romps into romance; charming, but imbued with the idea that family and finance should be her twin lodestars. In part that might have been thankless, she makes her conventional intransig- ence seem merely an error of unre- f1ective youth. The elder Seton, com- placent in his dynasty, is played by Henry Kolker, who shows him a smooth, implacable, highly polished tycoon.
 Other interesting personalities and their characteriza:ions are as follows: Lew Ayres as the brother who drinks to forget; Edward Ev- erett Horton and Jean Dixon as the Plotters, married couple who add much to the comedy of the film.
 The new Torch Blanc star team, Lola Lane and Paul Kelly, provided new thrills and excitement for au- diences during the screening of the latest of this series, "Torchy Blanc in Panama" the second smash hit of the program.

 Books, shows, and music takes LIS out of the little cocoons we are ill and make us into carefree butter flies. If not butterflies, then roaring lions, depending on what we dream about. Sometimes, they just take us to halycon valleys of peace and rest.
 Life is fine and dandy for some people. They like the push, the struggle and the game. They enjoy elbowing others out of their way, or climbing hills, or mastering know ledge, beating the day and resenting real world happily. The harder the tho night.
 These are people who live in a then they can remake it with their better, or the duller the better, for own hands into something exciting. They work with what they have and spend no time on dreams. They never heard of wishful thinking.
 There are as many kinds of es- capes as there are troubles. You may think lightly of something that crushes me, and I may smile at your worries. We never can make others understand what is eating us up.
 Some like to sleep away their troubles. Sleep is a common escape. Real drowsiness occurs. Long hours of rest are needed. Then the parent may think that health is account able, which may be true, of course. But give the sleeper mental relief or greater zest for living. and sud- denly he is able to get up with the birds.
 Children are Escapists, Too
 Those children who seek their own society are largely "escapists." It is not a crime, and not as unfortunate as it is made out to be, but it does not really help to solve or dissipate the cause.
 The imaginative child is likely to create an artificial realm ot complete happiness. It may take any form, dreams, books. drama and make believe. Go along with it little, suggest. And at the same

.BEAUTX---a-----' GlorWng

(NEA Service Stan Writer)
 Summer is the time to use darker makeup but less of it. AS her skin gradually acquires coat of sum- tan, the smart girl buys darker powder or mixes bit of very dark with her regular. shade until the mixture matches the tones her skin has become. Afterward, she applies this new matching shade sparingly the object being to look as natural as possible during summer months.
 However, she is less Stingy with rouge. Choosing a shade which matches exactly the color her sun- tanned cheeks become after violent exercise, she uses it freely, blending it carefully, of course. Although she has used cream rouge for years, she ] may find 1t more satisfactory to switch to a powder variety during the hot months. Lipstick, too, goes on with lavish hand. A coat of tan, plenty of lipstick and rouge and a moderate amount of pow der make teeth seem shades winter and eyes more sparkling.
 During the weeks when your skin is warm, golden brown instead of lily white as it was last winter, try emitting foundation cream from your makeup routine. Strive for a healthy, natural look instead of a made up one. Simply cleanse face and throat with cream, remove the cream with soft tissues, pat on skin tonic, then apply rouge, powder and lipstick, skipping mascara during daytime hours at least. If your skin is very dry forget about skin tonic. Just cleanse with cream and apply makeup.
 Don't let anyone tell you that it's a bad idea to get all the sunshine you possibly can. Or that it's better to sit under beach umbrella all the time than to risk the drying effects of the sun on your face and throat. If you always apply good suntan oil or lotion before exposure and use night cream each and every night, therell be no harmful results. Neg lect-not sun-makes for fine lines and wrinkles. Enjoy the summer, and if you look prettiar with a coat of tan than without, get one. Sun- tan has not gone out of style!

East had to bid slightly more than he wished, but North's pre- emptive overcall made the situation difficult. However, East was John C. Kunkel of Harrisburg, Pa, holder of the Mems National Pair Cham pionship, who at the moment is a candidate for the Republican nom- ination for congress in the 18th Pennsylvania district.
 If his fellow Pennsylvanians should send him to Washington, there is no doubt that the bridge standards of that body will be immeasurably heightened. Kunkel played his hand in the Grand Ma tional Masters Individual Tourna- ment in New York in April
 North won the first two tricks with the ten and ace of hearts, so Kunkel needed all the rest. The return of the spade deuce, and North's pre-emptive overcall, mace him believe that spade finesse would be unsuccessful.
 He let the spade run to the dummy, and the seven from South

forced the ace. The king and ten of diamonds picked up the adverse trumps, and Kunkel saw that if he was to make the hand, both the king and jack of clubs must be held by South.
 He then led the eight of clubs, and when South played the seven, he finessed the ten, which held. Three more rounds of diamonds were taken, and South found 1t hard to choose discards. With the clubs in dummy, he must retain his clubs, so one by one he gave up the guards to the spade queen.
 Kunkel thel ran three spade tricks. and didn't need the second club flnesse, as the squeeze worked with splendid precision.

WILL YOU HAVE SPINACH,
 CANDY OR MILK?

Food obsessions are hard to over- come. l. conceived one about to- matoes when I was kin- Only g few years ago made up my mind tc eat tomatoes at all costs. I began eating tomatoes-when they were not too high. I have never had any untoward effects from tomatoes, so far as I am aware. In fact, I'm fond of a dash of catSup on my spaghetti. Still, feel now that I have done my duty by tomatoes. I'm off tomatoes for the rest of my life. I've shown can take it. Why con- tinue to force myself to eat some thing I shall never learn to like?
 For that matter, why should any kid be compelled to eat spinach, as long as COWS continue to give milk. As a source of calcium milk has spinach backed right off the table AS source of iron spinach is not so hot. Now don't get me wrong. I like spinach. I go for it whenever 1t is on the menu. But get no satis- faction from eating it, other than the pleasure of eating what one likes.
 Spinach, if you like it, is fair source of iron, a good form of roughage or bulk for the intestinal tract, a contributor of vitamin C., rich in vitamin A. AS a source of calcium it is far inferior to milk.
 When we come to analyze spinach from the nutritional standpoint it is difficult to see why or how it achieved it's reputation as a health food for children. One suspects it is good for children chiefly because children don't like it. Something like castor oil in that respect. An ounce of spinach contains 1,400 units of vitamin Also does an ounce of butter, an ounce of cheese, half an ounce of liver, one-fourth of an ounce of escarole (chicory greens) 1-2 ounces of carrot, 1 1-2 pints of milk. But then, who ever suffers from shortage of vitamin A in this country? I have been seeking con-
