here: Millionaires, flowers and
glamour on the east; shells, strands,
oysters and mangrove trees on stills
in the west. Or try the gulf coast,
just south of Dixie, which is a win
ter paradise in itself.
The Desert Is Bracing.
Only in the past five years has
the southwest vacationland come
into its own. Here, by contrast with
the northland's exhilarating cold and
the southland's soothing warmth, the
visitor finds bracing quality in the
rare and dry desert air. 1t all de-
ponds on what you want.
Like the North, the Southwest is
country of vastness, only it's diff
ferent kind. Deserts that run on for
miles suddenly break into weird and
colorful mountain scenery. Nature,
not bountiful here, has left instead

matched it. But then, she hadn't
been married twice before! You'll
see her before long in Forty Little
Mothers" and you may have seen
her on the screen already, without
knowing it; as Diana Lewis she's
been just one more promising young
actress. She's beautiful and talent
ed, and acting is an old story to
her-her parents used to be head
liners in vaudeville.
If the British government had
been as eager to send David Niven
to war as he was to go, he could
have taken with him-and probably
would have-a novel memento Of
Hollywood. 1t is the service cap
which he wore in the role of young
English officer in Dawn Patrol"
Louis Hayward, playing the role Of
an English captain in one of the
sequences of "My Son, My Son!",
in which he has one of the top roles,
drew an army cap from wardrobe.
He noticed the initials sd. NJ" in
the band, and learned that it was
Niven's Dawn PATROL cap, so he
bought it and sent it to his friend.
Time was when a screen star
couldn't be sued for divorce and
hope to carry on with her career.
And although she planned to marry
someone else as soon as she was
free, she wouldn't have said so as
frankly as Vivian Leigh has. 1t
seems likely that her studio would
have been just as well pleased if
her husband had not chosen to sue
her while "Gone With the Wind"
was still at the height of its glory,
but she did so well in it that the
publicity regarding her private life
probably won't keep the public from
clamoring to see her in Waterloo
Bridge"
It's not unusual to hear few
bars of "God Bless America" in
traffic jams in New York these days.
People look about and stare, and if
they're lucky they catch glimpse
of Kate Smith in the car whose horn
startled them. A horn manufacture
ing company gave the horn to Miss
Smith as present; the driver just
presses a button, and a bit of the
patriotic song that she made IA
nous rings out.
Title to the title, Buck Benny

three times. When Benny's authors,
Morrow and Beloin, first used the
idea it automatically became the
property of the comedia, as does all
their material. With characteristic
generosity, Benny gave it back to
the writer's.
Now they have sold the title to
Paramount, the company for which
they wrote Benny's new picture.

dent Roosevelt is the greatest peace

talk about something that happens
only once in 10 years. / refer to
the decennial census, the counting
of noses of Americans and the gath
ering of information about them,
their lives and living upon which the
federal government has launched.
A good many folks have been in
clined to regard the census as some
thing about which to joke. There
was, and is, a certain number of
people who think the whole thing is
silly. It is not silly. Taking it on a
long term basis, considering it from
the standpoint of its permanent val
Ne, it is so much more important
than the passing show of political
shadow-boxing that we can well af-
ford to forget about much of that
bunk. The census deals IN facts,
and surely we cannot have too many
facts about ourselves.
So, borrowing from the expression
of Frank Wilson of the census bu-
reau, let me insist again that there
is news of lasting value in this CEN
sus and the job of census taking. 1t
is, accurately stated, a complete
self-examination of Uncle Sam by

we all will know much more about
ourselves, individually and col

before. The current census is the
most comprehensive of all of the Is
decennial canvasses that have been
made since the first survey in 1870.

Winter Vacation Comes Into Its Own

Seemingly Silly Questions
Are Really Important

At the outset, I asked the ques-
tons about what you were doing
five years ago and where you lived
then. That was not facetious. Those
questions are a part of the regular
forms which the nose-counters will
carry and which you, as citizen,
must answer. There is a good rea-
son.
have just written about birth and
life and death. If your Uncle Sam
knows something about how firmly
you are rooted to particular farm
or town or county or state, he can
arrive at conclusions rather re-
mote from the questions. For ex-
ample, if you are the son Of farm
er and are continuing to farm, it is
reasonable to assume that you are
normally happy and reasonably sue
cessful farmer. Uncle Sam will not
have to worry about that kind. He
does have to worry, as a matter of
national policy, however, when the
census taker reports so many from
one place who have moved to the
city, especially if those who moved
have no training in any field of in
dustry. There arises, quickly, the
question of unemployment.
Or, this business of moving about
may have come from drouth or
floods or pestilence. Matters of
health are reflected as well. Con-
timed droIIth or continued faoodS
may ruin an area for agricultural
purposes. With facts concerning the
condition, somebody may be able
to suggest other means of utilization
of the land.

There is a thought in Frank Will

son has better concept of the CEN
sus program and its ultimate value
than any other person I ever have
met-that our nation is facing a
much more serious problem in the
matter of old age than is apparent
to most of US. It comes about this
way: Mr.. Wilson pointed out that
there are fewer babies being born
annually among each one thousand
of our population than was the case
10 or 20 years ago. The birth rate
is declining. At the same time,
through the development of medi-
cal science, through improved living
conditions, through elimination of
hazards, reduction of accidents and
so forth, the life span" of each of
us is getting longer and longer. Peo-
pie actually are living longer; the
expression of Giving on borrowed
time" after one is 20 years old is
meaningless because so many people
now live beyond that allotted time.
