So Many Angels
With Dirty Faces

1t was dirty-face day for glamour
girls in the makeup department at
Paramount Studio. All in single
morning, the makeup men applied
the following to the following for
the following reasons and following
pictures:
Dorothy Lamour's face was daubed
with tar because she was supposedly
splattering about the edge Of a tar
pit for Malaga"
Studio-made cobwebs were blown
across Veronica Lakes face for attic
thrills in This Gun for Hire"
For a musical number, Marjorie
Reynolds, leading lady in Holiday
Inn," was whole-facedly covered
with burst cork.
Madeleine Carroll suffered grease
on her face for scenes around a
huge truck in MY Favorite Blond"
Caviar was patted on the face of
Claudette Colbert when she is sup

mine in which the Morgans worked
with such pride of craft, to the
coming of the new minister, who
was to be his inspiration to gentle
Browen's marriage to the oldest
Morgan son, to the spontaneous
celebration afterward, to Angharad's
shy and tragic love for the new pas
tor and her angry marriage to the
mine owners son, to the school to
which he went so hopefully only to
encounter Sadistic schoolmaster, to
his choice of mining as a career in
the fine Morgan tradition, and to
the memory Of his father dead in
an explosion, the climactic incident
which turned a boy into a man.
1t Is wonderfully human drama
that How Green Was Ny Valley"
finds In each Of these simple expert
ences. The statement OF each Is
always plain. Even the mine dis
aster which brings the picture to its
climax, spectacle which the movies
are accustomed to seize on furiously,
is connoted merely by the blowing
of the whistles which brings the
anguished relatives to the death
watch.
Nothing OF Huw's experience Is
sighted, nothing over accented. He
is to be left the remembrance of 4
youth where love and kindliness
triumphed, after q terrific struggle,
over ignorance. fear. injustice,

nothing else is. In addition to Ford's
superlative direction, it has inspired
acting, finely faithful script by
Philip Dunno and kind of photo
graphic splendor worked out by the
director and Cameraman Alfred
Newman. Acting honors are fairly
evenly distributed in the cast behind
young Roddy Mcdowell, with me-
morable performances by Sara ALL
good and Donald Crisp as the heads
of this humble house of Morgan,
Walter Pidgeon as Pastor Gruffydd,
Maureen O'Hara as the tormented
Angharad and Anna Lee as the
bereaved yet unbewildered Bronwen.
The greeness of Huw's valley in
Wales, derivative of the love in
which the Morgans lived and the
simplicity Of their aspirations in
contrast to the harshneSs OF their
circumstances, is brought out vividly
in every element of the tranSla-
ton. 1t Is described in narrative
form in the first person singular,
the turning camera going back to
pick up the people and the episodes
as Huw remembered them.
Both the people and the epi-
sodes are unvaryingly fascinating.

The sole important newcomer to
the cast of Kildare's continued story
is Ann Ayars, no relation to Lew
Ayers except phonetically, who
plays the Cookie role. 1t is a char
acter that makes it hard to Judge
Miss Ayars' ability by making it
so much easier to judge that the
script writer's are couple of fellows
who seem to despite subtlety in
drawing cafe society girls. She
looks fine, however.
The others look Just like their
former selves, except Ayres, who
goes very melancholy.
The Messrs Hoysradt and Draper,
a peerless pair in the fields of satire
and the tap dance, put brilliance,
no less, into this weeks Capitol stage
show. The former, making his first
local appearance, runs through some
hilarious impersonations, the most
winning Of the lot being a finely

Here's ar. AnslUer
With Logic ApLenty

A neuropsychiatrist on one of the
Medical Advisory boards had &C.
casion to examine a registrant from
one of the county local boards. The
doctor passed him.
But when the registrant was sent
to Fort Smelling for induction, he
was rejected by neuropsychiatrist
there as being neurotic. The local
board, thinking the doctor who orig
inally passed the man would be in
terested, notified him to that effect.
The doctor was curious as to the
reason, and asked the local board
to send the registrant to see him
again.
$50 they wouldn't take you at
Fort Smelling" DR.. Kamman said.
NAH" the registrant replied.
Zone of those nervous doctors threw
me out. Asked me couple of fool
questions and wouldn't pass me-"
''And what did he ask your" DR..
Kamman inquired.
well, first he asked me, What
would you do if one of your ears
was shot OFF,
$50 said. Guess I maybe couldn't
hear very WE'LL,
''Then he said. And what would
you do if both ears were shot OFF,
$50 I told him, Then I guess I
couldn't see so good"
Even Dr. Kamman hesitated at
this one. Then he ventured, "After
all, that was kind of an odd answer.
What in the world made you say a
thing like that?"
The registrant was affronted. He
explained patiently, We'll, if both
ears were shot off, my hat would fall
down over my face, and then I
couldn't see."

OF course, the worst problem the

that must be solved before those

labor problem.

army. The same segment of the
population is also needed in indus
try.
This brings us back to the cues
ton Of machinery. Farm machinery
is more important than it ever was.
We know that as Vice President
Wallace pointed out to me the other
day. and as the last two years rec
ords show, farmers can always
increase their output a lot without
buying new machinery if the mar
ket justifies it and If they have
manual labor. But they can expand
their production only so far without
either more labor or more machines
and they can work the old machine
only so far before it breaks down,
unless it has particular care.
The farmers Of America are be-
ing called upon to do agriculture's
biggest job in history. They need
all the machines that can be spared
from the factories now building
tanks and other supplies. They
need labor to take the place of the
boys called from the farm to the
factory and the battlefield.
Land Army of Women?
Already efforts are being made to
fill the demand. Among others,
Mrs. Roosevelt's land army of wom-
en-, as one official puts it, does not
look as funny as it did when the
idea was first put forth. But it has
to be trained army before it can
help the farmer.

Cleaning Rugs and Upholstery
NOILED carpets, rugs and uphol-
- stery can be cleaned by sham
pooling with soap jelly. Ordinary
soiling will come out easily, but 9TH
er methods should be used for obsti-
nate and unusual stains. These
may call for professional work. Fur
Their, shampooing should be applied
only to fabrics of which the colors
are fast.
The jelly is made of chips or fakes
of pure and mild soap; the kind of
soap that is used for fine launder-
ing. Four cups are put in bowl or
wide-mouthed jar, and one cup of
water is added. The jelly will form
within an hour. A portion of the
jelly is put into mixing bowl and
beaten with an egg-beater, which
will raise suds as stiff as whipped
cream. Using soft brush, jelly is
worked on the fabric in a space IL
inches or so across. After a few
minutes for the loosening of the dirt,
the space is wiped with a cloth
damp with clear water, and with a
sitter brush, the nap is brushed
in it's proper direction. An adjoin-
ing space should then be cleaned.
The suds are SO dry that upholstery
fabric will not be soaked, as would
be the case with soapsuds as usually
used. After cleaning, the fabric
should be quickly dried. A rug can
be supported on boxes and chairs,
so that air can get at the back as
well as the front.
Mounting Maps
There have been few times when
maps have been studied to the ex-
tent that they now are; maps of Eu-
rope, Africa, the Near and Far East,
as well as the parts of the world
Aot at present involved in war. For
map to be useful, it should be
mounted on stiff support. One
eighth plywood, is excellent. The
first step in mounting is to lay the
map on the plywood, and to mark
the positions Of the four corners.
The plywood is then given coat
of shellac on both sides and on the
edges. When this is dry, another
coat of shellac is applied, the map
is rolled up, and one of it's ends is
laid down with the corners on the
marks. With the worker leaning
over the board, the rest of the map
is then thrown over the head, to be
supported by it. The rest of the
map is then quickly laid on the
damp shellac, and smoothed with
the two hands, which are free. AS
soon as the map is down, it should
be gone over with a stiff brush,
working from the center toward the
edges, to push out air bubbles that
may have been caught. Should any
remain. they can be disposed of
through pin hole in the paper in
the center of the bulge.
Room Decoration
Question: A study used by four
people has a white ceiling; walls
are light blue, and window frames
are light yellow. Walls and ceiling
are dirty and should be done over.
The room is II feet square. In re-
decorating, what colors would make
the room appear larger?
Answer: A light room will seem
larger than If finished in dark col
ors. Had I your problem I should
use one single light color for every
thing; ceiling and woodwork as well
as walls. My choice would be light
ivory or a pastel shade. Colors to
relieve the monotony could be in
curtains and upholstery.

Washington. D. G..

Washington, D. G.
Americas two important weapons
against her enemies in the long war
we see ahead of us today are the
assembly line and the farm. In
Washington in the department of
agriculture a war cabinet has been
created for Secretary Wickard
made up of the heads of the action
agencies-the agencies that are Gre
ated to help the farmer do things.
Eve, in Washington, can't do
a thing by ourselves" said an Of
fetal to me. eve can't grow BUSH
ell of wheat or raise a peck of corn.
But we can line up behind the de-
partment's field men to help the
farmer in this emergency. We are
now organized to put our maximum
effort into that kind of help"
The three most important things
for the farmer to do now, according
to Washington officials, are:
1-Repair Machinery
First, get agricultural machinery
repaired. SPAB has allocated ma
terial for repair parts. There is no
sign that these ALLEGATIONS will be
cut down but there is no chance of
increasing them. The farmers got
out record crops in 1910 and 1941
with their old machinery. They
can't do it a third year unless that
old machinery is repaired now. And
if it isn't repaired now it won't be
ready for spring.
2-Conseruation
The second important word for
the farmer is conservation.
Get every piece of scrap metal off
the farm and into the hands Of the
junk man. Watch your bagging.
Remember we import jute and
there is likely to be decided short
ages. Save waste paper, too.
3-The Farm Garden
And here is third reminder: The
farm garden. Remember that there
ID q oI1C1 S1lO1 CoSO OlA
Everything in the way of food that
you can preserve for yourself saves
the need of cans. Not only the
things that you can put in glass
jars but also root crops which can
be stored without the use Of con-
tainers-carrots and turnips and
cabbages, too.
So much for what the farmer Is
expected to do. Now what is going
to- be done to the farmer?
In the first place he is going to
be asked to produce more with less
help. Secretary Wickard says that
goals in the ''food-for-freedom"
program are just about right but
that they have to be reassayed in
the light of the war with the Axis.
Here are some of the main changes:
First of all, because we are 60
ing to be working nation,
on the home front and elsewhere,
an increased amount of vitamin-
contained strength-bringing vegeta-
bleS will be needed.
The sugar situation will have to
be considered very carefully. We
may lose imports of potential mil
lion tons from the Philippines. The
Hawaiian islands as a sugar source
are uncertain. Much of the Cuban
sugar will have to be turned into
industrial alcohol. AS to production
on the continent, the labor situation
of which shall say more later
cuts deeply into that program, for
sugar labor is always rapidly alb
sorbed by competing interests.
The supply OF oils and fats is
another problem which may require
a reassaying of the food-for-freedom
program. Fats and oils make up
heavy import from the East Indies;
They represent essentials as fooc
and also for manllfaCture--the OILS
