Want to know
how to save
lots Of time in
your food shopping?

Tho answer to the above question is
Plan your menus ahead Of time.
Planning meals in advance not only
saves you time, money and trouble, it is,
today. practically your patriotic duty.
For today every minute must count
every meal contribute to health and
morale. These few tips suggested by the
Safeway Homemakers' Bureau, should
help lot in your menu planning.
Tip No. 1-Plan menus several days
in advance, a whole week if possible, 20
you'll see your food picture a. whole.
Then you can check to make sure you've
included plenty Of variety and balance
Of foods needed for good nutrition
TIP No. 2-For good nutrition, each
days meals should include at least pint
Of milk for adults, .squart for children;
IN egg per person, or at least 5 to 4 eggs
\ week; some enriched or whole grain
bread OF cereal; tomato or citrus fruit
Or their juices; another serving Of fruit;
at. least two servings Of vegetables be-
sides potatoes, one preferably green,
leafy, or yellow; serving Of meat, fish.
chicken, or sea food; some butter OF
vitamin A fortified margarine; and what
ever desserts and special treats you like.
Tip No. 3-Even the best food tastes
better served attractively. Be sure to
include in every meal pleasing contrast
Of shapes, colors, and textures, as we'll ~
contrasting temperatures and Aavors. A
well-known nutritionist has said that If
YOU are color conscious and include food
that's white, green, yellow, and red in
each days menus, your vitamins and
minerals viii take care OF themselves.
Tlp No. @-Plan menus on a regular,
definite day in the week. whenever's
most convenient for you. and allow
yourself plenty of uninterrupted time to
do really good job.
Tip No. SITS more fun to plan meals
when you're a little hungry. and your
ideas may be better then, too
Tip No. o-Many homemakers find IT
easiest to plan breakfasts for the week
first, next dinners, and finally lunches or
suppers. This scheme lets you check
over breakfast and dinner for each day
before planning the third meal. so you
can make sure it completes the nutri-
tional picture.
rlp No. 7-Decide ahead OF time how
to serve any leftover foods with careful
planning you won't have many IN ap-
petizing guise.

times they even dig in the motor

Senator Lodge said there was
great air activity during the entire
battle and that many American
planes were being used by the Allied
forces. He added that q number of
American pilots were fighting the
planes.
Communications Are Lifelines.

and so on. These films, some as long as feature
pictures. are produced at cost. No overhead
is charged: no rental for equipment. Holly
woods best directors donate their services.
(Note: Hollywood does not have to make
films like these at cost any more than motor
car manufacturers are required to turn out
Army cars at cost. Hollywood is doing it
anyway. Because it wants to, suppose.)
The short pictures for theatrical distribu-
ton - also to be made at cost - are not
much in evidence right now. But wait. Evi-
dence is plain that Washington intends to
make use of motion pictures, for civilian con-
sumption in furtherance of the nations war
interests, to degree which may well jar
Hollywood to its heels. These will include not
only complete visual instruction in all phases
of Civilian Defense, but plenty of documentary
pictures explaining and depicting the progress
of the war effort.
This activity is not expected to damage the
usual motion-picture output. On the con-
trary, it may even improve the average quail
ity of the regular movies by replacing, on
theater screens and in studio production facil-
tiles, the raft of pictures spewed out annually
as mere time-killers: the ''B pictures" of the
doomed double-feature programs.

Straight Drama. For basic reasons such
as those outlined above, these will run
to melodrama, problem" stories - pretty
intense stuff. The effort will be to make pic
lures which have the suspense, and are well
enough played, to pull the audience right up
onto the screen.
Westerns. Yippee! Great stuff for times
like these: action, and downright American.
Western producers are going right ahead on
full schedule, confident, as always, that they
can't lose.
MuEcals. Production difficulties and the
expense. will hold them to minimum; any
way, they're not considered the kind of fare
that will hold people the way they must be
held today.
That ends our prediction (based on known
facts and consensus of opinion) as to what
changes the war will bring in types of pic
lures. The next question is what effect the
war will have on the making of these pictures.
in respect to quality, quantity and so on.
Let's start at the beginning:
The Players. There will be no important
changes in acting personnel. Only few
actresses will drop out to devote full time to
war work. In respect to the star actors, the
surprise is not that 50 few will be in the armed
forces. but that 90 few could be. To give you
some idea. here is summary of few ages:
Two of the top heartbeats - each 43 years
old.

Evening star., 1942-03-15

Result is there will be fewer outdoor spec
tacles and "epic" pictures - virtually none
which require large numbers of extras. Even
Westerns will be hit (they have to ship the
horses; so the chases will be shorter and the
town and ranch scenes longer.
More pictures will be made indoors. This
will mean tighter" stories, with stage play
pattern, which in turn will demand better
acting. You will see more character actors,
and older players with stage experience.
Wax Effoxt. The studios, working with
the Army Signal Corps, have made num-
Der of training films, and are working on
steadily increasing schedule. Some titles will
give you an idea: THE go MN Mortar"

Some of these may get into the Service -
several are trying very hard - but this hardly
represents the Army's idea of the most desir-
able soldier.
Included in the above but not in the
same order - are such actors as Gary Cooper,
James Cagney, Clark Gable. Ronald Colman,
Charles Boyer, Melvyn Douglas. Cary Grant,
William Powell, Spencer Tracy, Edward G.

making location trips. Don't forget, the
Pacific states are formally declared to be
in the Theater Of Operations of this war.
Definitely out are location settings for pic
lures dealing with the sea, the tropics, the
air, harbors. handicapped are inland location
trips because of transportation (tires, trucks.
