Fortune in Perfume
Guarded by Police

Three special studio police
men, each working eight hours
a day, have been put on 24-hour
duty on the set of "Bluebeard's
Eighth Wife" which Ernst Lu-
bitsch is directing for Para
mount with Gary Cooper and
Claudette Colbert in costarring
roles.
The reason is that the set is a
reproduction of a floor of
French department store and
contains, among other valu.
ables. $1,000 worth of costly
perfumes!
The real perfume was used in
stead Of imitation scent because
it was impossible to obtain suf.

fume bottleS-empty. To get the
containers. Paramount had to
buy the perfume, too.
When the picture is COM
pleted, the multitudinouS bottles

for their sale to a perfume
wholesaler.

New Orleans.
In bringing the story of hand
some, vain Jean Laffitte, both
pirate and hero, to the screen,
DeMille has, as is his custom,
done so with % great deal Of ro-
bust glamour, historical hokum.
His fights are grim, cruel; his
tragedy stark; his drama highly
dramatic; his comedy broad; all
of his scenes lively.
Most interesting, to me per.
sonally, was the introduction OF
newcomer FranciSka Gaal, who
is not only quite a capable &C"
tress of many varying moods
but one who charms with cute,
individual manneriSms. If this
first American performance is
any criterion, then I would
readily say that Miss Gaal is
destined to receive the acclaim
of movie fans. She certainly has
everything to indicate ultimate
stardon.

against Morris a passing attack had
clicked that spread their defense.
Friday night the passes wouldn't
work; and the whole force OF the
defense Of Long Prairie could
be thrown at the line. And so
1t was no go.
And now comes Osakis. Osakis
has been pushed around the lot by
all the other teams. And it appears
that Sauk Centre has it's finest
chance to pull out a victory-and 1t
will be the first on the O-Sa-Ge
field. With the halfway mark
of the season passed, the locals
have looked more than fair. One
loss mars the record against st.
Johns. Over Parkers Prairie they
had a complete domination, and
they outsmarted Morris to win mar
ginally. And then the Long
Prairie scoreless tie. -.
