BY RUTH

A college graduate, fresh out of
a school of journalism, recently
came to me for advice.
New York was new and strange.
Job-hunting was new and strange.
But today that girl has a job,
which pays enough to support her
without any help from home.
How did she do it-a girl from
the Middle West, with no friends
in New York, no experience, nc
pull-when there are thousands of
experienced men and women out
of work in the big city?
FOLLOWED A SYSTEM
Well, she went at the business
of job-hunting in a business-like
way. She didn't set her heart on
any particular kind of job. She was
smart enough to know that be-
ginners can't be choosers.
Here is the job-hunting techni-
que she used which could be fol.
lowed by any young person in any
city:
First she talked to several per.
sons in the line of work she want.
ed to do-asking nothing of them
but a few minutes of time, and
their honest advice. She used the
time well, not just saying advise
me-" but asking practical ques-
tons.
Then she found the names OF
two of the leading agencies in the

Flag Day Is Observed
Quietly In Wilmington

Wilmington observed Flag Day
quietly yesterday.
Flag; fluttered from their stats

others responded to the appeal of
various patriotic organizations that
the national emblem be displayed.

note the day, no gathering and no
speeches.
Members of the North Care "a
Society of Colonial Danes attends a
motion picture entitled, 1.-The Flag
Speaks" and the Stamp Defiance
chapter of the Daughters of the
American Revolution staged an OBJ
servance at Moore's Creek Battle

STATE

In response to numerous tele- phone calls and letters, the man. agement of Warmers State theater announces an extended engagement of the thrilling new action epic Santa Fe Trail' which co-stars Enrol Flynn and Oliva de Havilland.
 The new thriller will be held over until Tuesday evening and will close promptly at 5:30 p. m. so that the theater may be prepared for the gala New Years Eve show.
 The picture tells a stirring story of the era just preceding the Civil War, when Jeb Stuart and General Custer, newly graduated from West Point began the military careers which have made them two of the most colorful and heroic figures in American history. Interwoven in their story is that of John Brown who sought to right the wrong of slavery by bloodshed and riot.
 In the east supporting Flynn and Miss de Havilland are Ronald Reagen, as General Custer, Ray mond Massey as John Brown and Alan Hale, Van Heflin, Gene Rey- holds and a cast of thousands.
 The second big hit is Warmers new comedy, "She Couldn't Say No" with Roger Pryor, Eve Arden and Cliff Edwards.
 The whole towns talking about the States mammoth New Years Eve show which will be headlined by the laugh hit of the year, Love Thy Neighbor' co-starring Jack Benny and Fred Allen, famous radio and stage comedians who have car- ried their "feud" onto the screen.
 This year the States New Years celebration will start promptly at 6 p. m. with continuous perform ances up until 3 a. m. Three con- plete shows will be presented dur ing this time and mcrry-makers may attend any time up to 12 mid night and still see complete show. You can make your New Years Eve complete by attending Sne early or and o'clock shows and then go- ing elsewhere to top off the eve- ming.
 Besides Benny and Allen the tal- ented cast includes such favorites as Rochester, Mary Martin, Verre Teasdale, The Merry Macks, Vir- ginia Dale and other funsters.
 On the same big program will be the latest in the adventures of fiction's fascinating rogue titled. .'The Lone Wolf Keeps Date". Warren Will Hams will again be seen in the title role and Frances Robinson supplies the romantic interest opposite him.
 Tickets for the New Years Eve show are on sale at the boxoffice and prices are as follows: Balcony 50 cents, Orchestra 75 cents, tax included.

HARRISON IN HOLLYWOOD
BY PAUL HARRIsON

NEA Service Staff Correspondent
 Hollywood -Highlights of the year:
 Most logical protest by a censor (against some native dancing girl shots in "The Road to Singapore''):
 There must be something wrong with the scene, or I wouldn't have wanted to see it three times"
 Most lasting impression made by an actor: The imprinting of John Barrymore's profile in the cement forecourt of the Chinese theater.
 Best evidence of the progressive attitude of labor: The night pick eting of the National Broadcasting company's studio by striking jani- tors carrying neon signs.
 Most awkward tribute: The re- staging, for film short, of David Seiznick's Academy banquet speech. On the original occasion with awards and oratory centering about Gone With the Wind" nobody even men tioned the name of author Margaret Mitchell.
 BITTEREST PILL:
 EASTERN FLOWERS
 Most flattering estimate of gla-. nor: The winning bid of $1025 by an eastern visitor at a British War Relief party for kiss from Mar lene Dietrich.
 Most appropriate display of Temperament: The annoyance of Miss Blanche Yurka, who ripped off her blond wig and heaved it over the scenery during a dispute on the sset of "The Woman From Hell"
 Bitterest pill for Southern Cali fornia: The shipment fro m the east by airplane of many of the flowers used on the floats in the famed Tournament of Roses.
 Most precedent-shattering bat tie of the screen: The defeat of Gene Autry in a fair fight in Melody Ranch".
 Neatest completion of cycle: The entrance of Spectacle-Special- ist Cecil B. DeMille, product of the peep-show era, into the field of nickel-in- the-slot movies-to- gether with his bid for the bubble dancing services of Sally Rand.
 Most fortuitouS coincidence:
