Today, many OF the fllm musicals
use stage backgrounds, but when
you see a show, you see it from the
audience, which is where shows
should be seen from, not from the
rafters. And the movies have dis
covered, at long last, that musical
comedies can wander where they
will, that a dancer can dance as ef-
fectively or a singer sing just as
fetchingly in a street scene as well
as on stage.
AS matter of fact. Hollywood is
doing good deal more than en-
phasizing girl shows in It's efforts to
see that the man in uniform, and
incidentally, his tax-paying cousin
in civvies, doesn't let war over
whelm his admiration for the little
things In life.

After having tried several doz
en- different varieties OF straw
berries, | have observed that Pre-
mier is still the most dependable
variety for home and early market
in this locality. Premier is bet
ter than average in quality. II
looks good, tastes good, and
keeps well. II is the earliest stan
dard variety and II has the long
est picking season Of all. II pro.
duces a good bearing bed with a
minimum OF labor and attention
The berries are the easiest to see
and therefore the easiest to pick
because the leaves are small and
DO not hide them so much as some
other varieties do. There are
fewer runty. seedy berries In the
last pickings than there are In
most varieties OF equal quality
No other variety excells 1t in
frost resistance. For these rea
sons, IL is out most popular early
market berry.
In spite Of the many virtues oil
Premier. nevertheless II must be
admitted that Fairfax has the most
delicious flavor OF all varieties OF
strawberries that grow well in
this locality. The Fairfax has two
faults that make 1t less popular
than Premier with berry growers.
The berries are so dark colored
and firm that pickers unintention-
ally put spoiled ones in the boxes,
because the spoiled ones often
are still plump and firm and look
nearly as good as any. The other
fault is that OF producing too many
long runners. so that more labor
