with two pictures to go, something
happened that wasn't on the schedule.
A Fox executive saw her in Jennie
and wanted to know what this girl,
obviously able to act more than COM
petently, was doing in small part
in class-B picture. The situation was
explained to him. Never mind the sit
uation, he said. Test her for the femi-

However, all is well with Miss Gill
more. After western Union" she
played opposite Cesar Romero in
Tall, Dark and Handsome" and
made a hit in it. Then it was time
for her to return to the studio of
Samuel Goldwyn. She had got her
experience" all right. But Fox didn't
like the idea of sending her back.
They tried to buy her contract. No
sale. They asked for half of it. Mr..
Goldwyn agreed.
So at the moment Miss Gilmore is
under contract to two studios: the
only actress in Hollywood, it is said,
currently to be enjoying that status.
And she is on starring basis with
both, which is indeed unusual. For
Mr. Goldwyn has formally announced
that her forthcoming picture for him
will be opposite Gary Cooper.
And that is the story of Virginia
Gilmore's rise to fame in Hollywood.
Please try to remember it. You'll
probably have frequent occasion to
recall it in the future.

Continued from poge five


from twenty-four to 22l miles away
from Camp Robinson, two thousand
men and 100000 pounds of baggage
were assembled in civilian trucks and
buses between breakfast and supper.
This does not mean that the rail
roads are incompetent to handle their
share OF defense traffic - quite the
contrary. Neither does it imply that
the Army expects to go to work in
hired vehicles: this was purely an
emergency drill The fact is, the Army
has mammoth vehicular program -
so big that it is already training 1000
special M. P.'s for traffic duty alone.
The outstanding lesson of the Ger
man conquest of the Low Countries
and France is that a fast, reliable
system of motor transport is vital to
the modern army.
Without motorization, indeed, the
blitzkrieg type of warfare is impos-
sible, since gasoline. ammunition and
food must follow right on the heels
of the most rapid advance of armored
units - principle dramatically con-
firmed by the recent exploits of the
British in Africa.
That is why our Quartermaster
Generals Motor Transportation Divi-
sion alone is spending more than
Sl00,0OO,00O this year, and why it will
have, by the time this is published,
100000 trucks - number that will
be great increased by early fall. At
present trucks are coming in at the
rate of 1000 weekly.
Brigadier General ]. +. Barzynski,
chief of Motor Transport, estimates
that one-third of the new army of
1.400,OOO men will be engaged ex-
clusively in providing motor trans
portation for the rest of the armed
forces 1t is difficult to grasp what
all this adds up to without visiting
an Army post - almost any post,
but especially one like Fort Knox,
Kentucky, or Fort Benning, Georgia.
In the 100,00O-aCre preserves of the
latter l recently saw the 4th Division
wholly motorizedD and the End Ar
mored Division When the 4th takes
to the road, its $500 motor vehicles
form moving column $50 miles long
and burn up 80. 600 gallons of gasoline
a day. And they think nothing of
knocking off 200 miles in the time
it took the old Army to march thirty.
Such mobility is essential because
their function is to follow on the heels
of the Armored CPanzer Division
and hold the ground that the tanks
have captured.
The Armored Division itself gets
around, too. Notwithstanding the
numbering connotation of its name
Consisting of $4,000 men and $500
vehicles. the head of this column on
parade would reach Philadelphia be-
fore the tail left Washington.
In addition to over 400 tanks. its
equipment includes over 800 motor
cycles, more than thousand trucks of
one-half to four tons, over 100 repair
trucks and mobile workshops - plus
several thousand howitzers, mortars,
machine guns, fieldpieces. etc. Among
the vehicles (some of them ten
wheelers) you will see portable cranes,
giant earth augers. $4,000 radio
cars, tractors. wrecking trucks. gas
tank trucks - even twenty-five boats!

good quality and taste are much

It's a good idea to see this group
of clothes, because Charles Armour'S
ideas always are important. He is
credited with the introduction Of
dark. sheer crepes for summer when
the world was wearing paStelS. He
started the long -sleeved evening
dress on its way and promoted the
short dress in metal or brocade for
cocktail hour, the long version for
dinner. Even the popular Sunday
night dress" was the idea of this
designer, who will, we might add,
be in a local store through to-
morrow.
For some days now we've been
trying to find space to report on
the showing of Molyneux clothes
held in another Washington shop
recently. 1t was an important dis
play of II smartly designed mod
els by this famous English captain,
who has achieved worldwide re-
nown through his presentation OF
smart clothes which stress, above
all else, good lines.
Capt. Molyneux's designs, shown
to the press at a tea which closely
resembled a New York gathering
emphasized slim skirts, simple but
beautifully cut. and slender lines
throughout. The color combina-
tions were of the best and most
unusual while the British fabrics
looked as British fabrics always do
wonderful!
Among the best of the group, to
our mind. was Dublin green tweed

/ If YOU wish TO keep your weight
where it is or lose a few more
pounds. modify the 9-day diet In
| this way:
Increase your carbohydrates tsue-
ars and starchesI a little. On my
longer-range reducing diets do not
cut these out. We need two parts
of carbohydrates to burn up one
part of fat. On the longer diet
routine, therefore. l advise one me-
dium baked potato a day, or at
least several times week; sugar in
your tea or coffee and little hard
candy at the end of your dinner.
A baked potato has only about 90
calories and supplies you minerals
and vitamins as we'll as starch.
Hard candy. in small amounts. and
a teaspoonful of sugar in your cof-
fee will not add a great many
calorieS to your daily intake.
Also. long period diet should
have more whole grain. Additions
of brown rice, wild rice or whole
wheat cereals several times a week
are indicated. You also can have
one pat of butter day. You can
make the above additions and still
keep your calories to 1,400 or 500

the shoulders, which save you from
slipping it on or off over the head
and disarranging your hairdo. The
straps stay in place, too, making
this a comfortable, safe apron to
wear for any household activity
cleaning, stepping up on ladders or
whatever your work demands.
You probably have many remnant

No matter how many machines
We invent-and the typewriter is
surely one of the most necessary
to everyday living-we will never
do away with the need for skill in
human hands. There always will
be place. and no mean one, for
fine handwriting.
Writing is graphic art. The
person VINO can write beautifully is
an artist of the pen. We are all
agreed that artists are rare. but
somehow We cannot get over think
ing that all children ought to be
artists OF the pen. Well. they aren't.
and all the penmanship drill in
/ the world won't make them so. We
must be satisfied If they can write
so that any one with fair eyeSlght
can read their handwriting.
That seems difficult enough to ac-
comphsh. We spend time on formal
/ penmanship lessons only to have a
/ set of compositions so badly scrawled
/ that reading them is torture to the
| teacher. If the composition time is
! taken up by admcnitions to write
clearly. close the o's and open the
e's. sit up and hold your pen prop
erly. don't press on the pen. slide
your fingers. etc, what kind of COM
position will you get?
One must be content with what
writing one gets and hope for the
best. The written lesson cannot be
interrupted to get technique in writ
ing. That must be left to the lesson
itself.
What about the carryOver? The
impression and practice of formal
writing period must be strong
enough to carry over to some de-
gree. and one must not expect per-
fection at any time Clarity and
legibility will be enough if we get
them.
If I were writing teacher I would
make a point of teaching the chill
dren TO write their names. That
would tie their interest to the pen
manship exercise the first thing. I
would keep on teaching them to
write their names until their sigma
lures we're works of art. almost. The
form they get in that lesson, day
after day. term after term, would
put character into their writing
and beauty and interest.
I would teach little children to
print their names. AS they grow in
power I would teach them to print
lines of words, phrases, sentences
and finally short paragraphs of in
teresting material, always beautiful
in thought as possible. The old
fashioned proverbs are fine.
My experience in trying to teach
small children in the elementary
classes the muscular penmanship
told me that little children had not
the necessary development and the
consequent power of coordination
demanded by muscular writing. The
result was an unlovely scrawl. Only
