 Bahama Passage" spectacular technicolor tropic romonce, makes it's bow at the State tomorrow CO., starring Stirling Hayden and Ma delenine Carroll those two brilliant stars who made such hit in the recent Virginia
 The picture was adapted from the best selling rovel by Nelson Hayes and was filmed on the tiny island of Salt Cay i'll the British West Indies, 4,0O0 miles from Hollywood. This was done so that the picture might have for it's setting the orig inal local chosen by the author for his widely read story.
 The story of the picture is the story of modern Adam and Eve in garden paradise. It starts out by bringing the lovely Madeleine Carroll to the salt producing island, an island of several hundred native blacks, owned and operated by a bronzed giant of 8 man, Stirling Hayden, whose interest in women is limited to an absent wife. Ma deleine, determined girl who knows life and how to cope with 1t, falls in love with him, not knowing that somewhere oil the island is wo-

A living miniature of your favoritt view, in a glass box-hills, lakes trees and flowers!
 You can make such terrarium easily, with panes of glass and CNc- trician's tape, or you may use a fishbowl. Your hills and valleys are loamy sold covered with green moss, your trees ares tiny spruce seedlings and budding twirgs of forsythia.
 In the humid atmosphere of a terrarium the forsythia flowers quickly and lasts for weeks. To make the beautiful lake with its winding Till, fill a cake pan with water and fit it at the bottom of the terrarium. Over it place a sheet of tin, as our sketch shows, from which a flake shape was cut with an old pair of sissers.
 You may also make desert scenes, using cacti and sediums, and place a tiny donkey and Mexican of pot tery in their midst. Many lovely glass gardens-in jugs and jars grow a single plant to perfection, 8 begonia, orchid, gardenia.
 Our 32-page booklet shows how to make all kinds of terrariums grow pine and palm, cactus and orchid, African violet, begoria, cro- ton and many more Towering and foliage plants. Also has directions for dish gardens.

POLES

The outstaning vaudeville pres entation of over score of years will be on the stage of the LoeW- Poli theater for only two days Thurs day and Friday, February 5th and 9th. There will be three stage shows daily at 3-6-9 D. m.
 Count Berni Vicci's Spices of
 1942" is the attraction coming to the
 LoeW Poli theater February 5th and
 9th. Count Berni Vicci boasts cast
 of over 50 of the leading stars of
 the stage. This outstanding cast
 consists of outstanding singers, dancers and comedians, and then as an added attraction it also has on its imposing roster of stars, the famed All Girl Band, long favorites of the NEG network.
 The most beautiful stage effects of the world are also a feature of this offering. Three of the largest bag gage cars on the railroad are neces- sary to transport the equipment from town to town, and 20 men are employed on the stage to handle the scenery.
 Among the scenes that will be featured are the floating neon vio- lins, The Ans of Beauty, Modern Machine Age, Indian Fantasy, La Conga Fiesta and the Cavalcade of America.
 The rosters of stars in this show
 reads like that of a $5.50 show on Broadway, among the many of the

 Dougles, 6 Marveletes, the Artists
 Models, Charlotte on the Hammond
 Organ, Jerry on the Novacchord
 and last but by no means least the
 l6 Dancing Dolls one of the best dancing line of girls in the country comparable in their precision to the RocketteS in New York.
 In addition to the above stage program there will be the regular screen program.
 Current at the Loew Poli theater is the film of tragedy and human warmth, told with passion, humor and pathos There is fun in it warm, human fun.

STRAND

Ending tonight at Warmers Strand theater is the hilarious comedy "Youre In The Army Now" with Jimmy Durante and Phil Silvers; also Blues In the Night with Priscilla Lare and Betty Field.
 If past performances are any criterion-and the past perfor- crat, Home Service. 635 Sixth Ave, New York, N. Y. Be sure to write plainly your name, address, and mances of Barbara Stanwyck and Henry Fonda, together or separately, can be considered a fairly safe criterion-"You Belorg to Me" is heading for the kind of audience reaction which made such other hits as '"The Awful Truth" MT. Deeds Goes to Town" good in screen comedy.
 You Belong To Me" opens its engagement tomorrow at the Strand and co-stars Miss Stanwyck and Fonda. Said to possess all and more of the delightful tempo and atmos- phere which distinguished their most recent comedy, "The Lady Eve" the new film has been parised as natural for the brilliant talents of the players.
 Briefly it is the story of bride who wouldn't stay for breakfast, and of husband who agrees that all the world loves a lover, but why should all the world love his wife? Miss Stanwyck is seen as a woman doctor with too many patients all of them handsome young men. Fonda appears as her love-crazy playhoy

GIVE THAT BABY A BLEAK

 T believe there would be far less respiratory infection from coryza to pneumc-ia, meningitis and in- fantile paralysis" (writes one .... I wish I could say mother, but the truth is that the writer is father) If people would spend as much effort avoiding contact with in- fected persons or possible carries of infection as they do in worrying about and trying to avoid drafts, l dampness, wet feet or insufficient clothing"
 It would be more encouraging to hear such an avowal from a moth- CT, but then, we must remember that mother is more susceptible to and more exposed to the old hokum bunkum than father is-the neigh | borhood saireygamps get in their | best licks after father has gone to work and mother is left alone with the children. Down at the office or | shop Ben Told is bit different about sounding off, but back home his wife Maria takes great pleasure in giving the young and of course inexperienced little mother an ear full.
 ''In our family continues the yourg father. "our year old baby has had no illness of any kind de- spite the fact that she sleeps in a drafty, unheated room. She has never been bundled or burdened with excessive clothing or bed cov- CTS in the way most doting mothers ] feel is necessary, and this has let 1 us in for a great deal of censure from friends, relatives and neigh bors, who are forever warning us the baby will get pneumonia | A nice distinction there-friends, relatives and neighbors. It would be even clearer if the friends were fairly qualified as well-mearing but misguided friends.
 The irony of it is that these same people would think nothing of let ting everyone and his uncle fond- le and kiss their baby or letting the baby play on dirty floor where no stray draft could reach the baby"
 This young father has said all there is to say about the matter But he is under no misapprehension concerning the popular view, for he adds T have always believed your teachings are the truth, but I do not think you can hope to remove the deeply ingrained approximations which the public so fondly cher ishes."
 Certainly not-I have learned that in a lorg cmapaign. But it is grati- flying to receive now and then such testimony as this young father gives, that my teachings do have some effect.

Gl0rifing Yourself

NEA Service staf Writer

NEA Service Stan Writer You needn't have career that depends on beauty as much as Magros does to appreciate the fresh young stage and radio sing ing stars wise words about beauti- fy.ng a cold.
 Of course, saving the surface not only doesn't cure cold, but 1t may be a real menace. A cold is a vastly underestimated ailment. It can go into pneumonia, you know. It de serves serious care, beginning with going to bed at the very outset.
 So don't go mistaking this advice for leave to neglect cold.
 But while treating a cold, try Margos stategem for bleary eyes. T tone down red lids by blend ing bit of mauve eyeshadow on the upper lid," she said, and l use only the mereSt touch of water proof mascara at the very end of the lashes, even for the stage. And l wash my eyes several times a day. Also, dress to take the spot light off my eyes. No bright ear- rings nor pearl l>necklace to call at- tention to my lack-lustre eyes. h. stead, clip of good color to my neckline, lapal ornament, a brace let to guide other eyes to my throat, bosom, wrist"
 IT'S LITTLE TRICKS"
 THAT COUNT
 A cold is likely to play hob with your complexion-not only your ir- ritated nostrils, but your whole face. So take extra care of it. Use paper tissues for handkerchiefs, by all means, for they cut down irritation. For your puffed proboscis, use liq uid powder or liquid powder base. Counteract the dry, flaky CT blotchy appearance that often comes with a cold by a more gen. erous application of a rich emollient cream at bedtime, and use a good strong lipstick to make your mouth the highlight of your face. And one other good suggestion from Margo; avoid that plain dark dress with starched white collar. The white neckpiece VII make a most unfattering contrast with your less-than-usualiy fair and firm neck, Margo dons, instead mot tied tWeeds of lazy hues, a simple print, or dress of solid, strong color.
 These little tricks will keep your spirits up and prevent others from suffering with you.
