California Celebrates
 On Mon-Mode Island

THEY decided first to hold a
 A fair in sunny California and then they built an island on which to stage it. So the Golden Gate gets off to a headstart among ex- positions in 1889 and Uncle Sam recognizes the event with an unique postage stamp, reproduced above, enlarged.
 The stamp is purple, pictures the Tower of the Sun at the Ex- position, thus symbolizing the dominant theme of the pageant, travel and recreation. But by no means will the California fair neg lect the myriad other values of the nations progress, for tribute is being paid to the mechanical, industrial and cultural growth of America at San Francisco.
 Thus Treasure Island becomes a rich bit of land in San Francisco bay in the fullest sense, portray ing the story of California, of the Pacific, of the United States. Whereas the New York Worlds Fair will depict the panorama of tomorrow around the globe, the Golden Gate will relate the glories of the Pacific now. Sev- enteen big buildings will tell the epic of California alone.
 Moreover, the Exposition will tell the story of 35 nations, most of them Pacific countries. So color flares in the bright Golden Gate these days and the Tower of the Sun catches it, throws it across the continent.

Today marks your final oppor- tunity to shee thrdl
 tunity to see the all Italian talk ing and singing program currently at Warner Bros. Strand theater. Spotlighting the bill is Beniamino Gigli, world famous tenor in Ave Maria. While this film is all Italian talking and singing it is also provided with super imposed English titles. The second big fea- ture of this program is "The Life of Pope Plus XI". Henry Armetta in Home, Cheap, Home" is pre- sented in addition to these two features.
 Acclaimed as lone of the years ten best pictures" by the National Motion Picture Board of Review is the grand comedy "The Beach, comber" starring Charles Laughton, coming to the screen at Warner Bros. Strand theater tomorrow af- ternoon for two days only.
 If you want to see Laughton in the slyest, funniest role that this great actor ever brought to the screen then you simply cannot af- ford to miss this grand comedy. As Ginger Ted", careless. drunken man sometimes Respondent, some times roisterous, born in England, but wasting his life away as a "re- mittance man" beachcomber on a tiny island in the Dutch Malay, he demonstrates his gift for character roles to such degree that he seems to become the Ginger" the author intended.

His characterization in Broadway Serenade" is that of a pianist composer who lifts Miss FacDonald from a singing job in 8 cheap night club to musical comedy stardom. Frank Morgan, who played the theatrical producer in "Sweethearts" offers a similar role. Ian Hunter is "the other man" in love story un- usually strong for a film primarily musical.

Al Shean, William Gargan, Franklyn Pangborn, and Leon Belasco are featured in the supporting cast.
 Busby Berkeley directed the dance spectacles. A small army of top- notch composers wrote the music, among them such popular selections as Magic Melody" No Time to Argue" and the title num- Der Broadway Serenade." In one novelty sequence, Miss Macdonald sings every type of song, from classical to tive.
 The second smash hit on this pop ular program is the much talked of Society Lawyer" starring Virginia Bruce and Walter Pidgeon. It is the story of society lawyer who prefers criminal cases, and a beautiful nightclub entertainer who assists him in the solution of a baffling murder. traps the guilty man and generates an innocent person.

 A gala Easter program will be zshered in at the State tomorrow afternoon with three must be seen" features comprising the bill.
 These three outstanding films will provide theatergoers with the best screen entertainment in town.
 Hit number one presents 8 tuneful tangle of hearts. harmony and hilar- ety 'Three Smart Girls Grow Up" with Deanna Durbin, Nan Grey and Helen Parrish in the roles the world has eagerly waited for.
 This is the fifth starring role for the youthful Deanna and no doubt the delightful music, the charming story and the performance of tal- ented Deanna will bring many of you back to see the picture the sec ond and even the third time.
 Three Smart Girls Grow Up" is said to be the most pleasing picture in which Deanna has ever appeared. Her first picture, Three Smart Girls" was closely followed by 100 Men and a Girl" and after that came Mad About Music and That Certain Age" Each picture was hailed by critics as better one than its predecessor and now these same critics are claiming that this, her latest film venture, is the best of the five.
 It is happy reminder of the first picture and presents approximately the same cast, Deanna, Charles Winninger. Nella Walker, Nan Gray and Ernest Cossart, with the addi- ton of Helen Parish, Bob Cummings and William Lundigan.
 During the course of the picture Deanna sings four songs, Invitation to the Dance" "The Last Rose of Summer" La Capinera" and Be cause"
 Deanna will be seen as the daugh- ter of a multi-millionaire who tries to straighten out the tangled love affairs of her two sisters, with anus ing results. This plot is much more of a comedy than any of the 16 year old stars previous offerings.
 Hit number two brings the power full drama Let Us Live" with two favorites, Henry Fonda and Maureen O'Sullivan in the co-estarring leads. This picture is one of the most thrillinlg of the year and will enter tain you from start to finish.
 AS the third big hit the manage ment will present the favorite of young and old alike, Popeye the Sail- or in his latest feature "Alladin and Hit Wonderful Lamp" This feature is Aimed entirely in technicolor.

 And for your further enjoyment the management will present a thrilling drama Secret Service of the Air" with Ronald Reagan in the chief role.
 Get ready for the big Easter pro- gram coming tot he Strand on Sum- day. Cagney in "The Oklahoma Kid" will top the bill and Claudette Colbert in the drama "zaza" will be the co-feature.

precious furs, real jewels.
But her conservative tempo need
not make her a nonentity. There
are many ways in which she can
achieve quiet but definite distint-
ton.
The patrician has little use for
active sports clothes.
In the country she wears British
tweeds, preferably the softer ones.
In town she wears tailleurs.
She likes formal furred suits for
cocktail parties and she needs little
dinner dresses as well as formal eve
ming gowns.
She will find one or two simple
but elegant black dresses indispen-
sable.
In the evening directoire and
Empire influences are perfect be-
cause of the styliZed elegance.
Her formal suits may strike a dig
nif1ed Edwardian note with position
feeling and cascade Of ruf1es on
an exquisite lingerie blouse.
With her tailleur she may wear
hat with derby lines, with a veil
tucked into the high stock.
With more formal clothes she may
wear tricornes, coronet effects,
Gainsborough picture hats, etc.
The patrician will prefer foggy
tones for her tweeds, grays for her
tailleurs, set off by the deeper tones
Of silver fox scarf, and for formal
suits, taupe, eggplant or garnet.
Her afternoon dresses will be black
relieved with pearls or, in summer,
clearly blocked black and white
prints of well-considered, highly
decorative design.
Her evening gowns will be colors
such as Empire green, royal purple,
peeress red or that truly royal COM
bination, white satin trimmed or
brocaded in gold.
Besides the tweeds and the mems
wear fabrics for her tailleurs, the
black crepes for afternoon, and the
summer prints, the patrician will
wear in the evening such stiff1y for
NAL fabrics as upholsterer's satin,
ottoman, faille, brocade, Lyons vel

tuous materials she can discover.

Mrs. A. T. L. would like to know
If kerosene will kill buffalo moths.
Well-it might, but I haven't too
much faith in 1t. Buffalo moths are
mighty sturdy critters. I would sug-
gest that she dig with knitting
needle around the cracks in the
floor board and along cracks in the
floor where dust may have settled.
Buffalo moths lay eggs and the eggs
hatch in this dust and the larvae
feed on the dust until they find out
there are better things to eat. After
digging up the dust, thorough
scrubbing with soap and water and
some strong disinfectant should do
lot toward getting rid of any
momentary inhabitants. But the
process should be repeated once a
week until all signs of the moths
have gone.
Miss Edna o. says that she has a
3-month-old puppy and he yells all
night after he has been shut up in
his box. Miss o. has my sympathy
my son has a puppy, too, and he
does the same thing. There isn't
much that can be done about it
either, until he gets over being
homesick. Sometimes bringing the
box into some ones room helps-he
won't feel so lonely. But I'm afraid
it's matter of growing out Of it,
mostly and hope that the neigh
bors won't mind.
Mrs. w. R. gives me a helping
hand. She tells me that she finds
using a fat slice of fried eggplant
under creamed chicken or turkey
is much tastier and better than the
usual toast. Certainly 1t sounds
more interesting and would make
a splendid luncheon entree. Thank
you, Mrs. r.

DEAR MRS. POST: We have no

guests have to step Immediately

through this room, OF course, to
leave their wraps in a small sitting
room. Is 1t better to introduce
friends who are strangers to others
sitting in the living room before
they take of their wraps or after
they come back into the room again?
1t seems so awkward to wait and
yet I believe read your suggestion
to some one else, whose problem
was similar to mine, that it was the
better way to wait.
Answer-If you yourself open the
door you say good evening" Of
course, and I'm so glad to see you"
and then say will you go through
to the little sitting room and take
your things OFF," In other wards,
you don't keep them standing but
hurry them through to the sitting

Since we're all supposed to look

we're apt to get at the end of long

mask is a luscious pink color and
just as soft and smooth as velvet.
When applied and left on for IS

Somewhere in the dim, dark past
B. j. (before jitterbugs) there was
a song that warbled something about
TOP to tip you're tip-top" re-
member? This same ditty came to
mind the other day when we were
taking tour of the local shops, and
with it the thought that nowadays
it certainly is no unusual sight for
a woman to be perfection from the
top of her head to the tips of her
toes. Not with the present beauty
aids at her disposal. -.
1t is now a fairly simple matter
for all of us to present a picture of
good grooming. We can't all be
beauties-very few are, but at least
we can do everything possible to
make ourselves attractive. So, start
ing with your topknot, here are a
few of the many aids available:
Your hair, which must be well
cared for via the shampoo and wave
route, is also deserving of little
care between trips to the beauty
shop. One Of the newest and most
interesting products to- help along
these lines is a creamy brilliantine
which is said to give your hair
sheen and luster in a greaseless
manner. It is something definitely
new, and we understand that the
non-greasy lotion will smooth your
hair and make it look less unruly.
In six shades, it will be perfect for
h dc hy~yYyNaffnc .
as well as for the ladies who have
tresses of black or gray. There is
even a neutral shade for undeter-
mined colors (whatever they may
beD. Very inexpensive, you need
but few drops in the palm of your
hand-not even an atomizer. We
think you may find this worthy of
investigation. -.
And then comes your complexion.

Gently presented a new assembly of
items for the complexion. This
house-one of the ''you-must-use-
soap" clan-includes in the set a
cake of soap, jar Of cleansing cream,
night cream for lubricating, lotion
for stimulating, a milky, liquid pow
der base and box of excellent face
powder. The entire package is most
attractive, inexpensive and thor
oughly generous in size. The prod
ucts themselves have a fine repu-
tation both here and abroad, so it
would seem that this is an ideal
opportunity to give yourself a thor
ough beauty treatment in their ap-
