LONDON, Dec. 3l.-The Royal Navy which climaxed a most suc- cessful war year with the sinking of the German Battleship Scharn- horst and three destroyers in the past week, is now being employed in an increasing force in the Pacific because of the heartening turn oi the battle in the Atlantic.

HILARIOUS FILM

Handsome Ray Midland and Aca- demy Award winner Ginger Rogers have the title roles in Paramount's s hilarious comedy, The Major and the Minor which is now playing at the 20th Century Theatre. with Rita Johnson, Robert Benchley Diana Lynn and Ginger's own mother, Lela Rogers.
 In their first film together the two stars are said to top anything either has ever done before, which if past performances are any cri- terion, should mean a double treat for moviegoers.
 Ginger's part is that of a small town girl who, sadly disillusioned with life in New York, tries to buy a ticket home to Iowa but finds that she is five dollars short of the increased railroad fare. She goes into the women's lounge with hei suitcase and comes out looking ex- actly like half-fare twelve-year- old. On the train, however, shs runs into difficulty.
 The situations which result wher the minor" agrees to accompany Major to his school in order tt get him out of the jam occasionec by her presence in the compartment are reported to be the funniest evel screened.

CAPITOL SHOWING
 HARDY FAMILY ON
 NEW YEARS BILL

The Hardy Family gets together
 again to send Mickey Rooney off to
 college in Andy Hardys Double
 Life" opening New Years Day at
 the Capitol. And Mickey gets into comical complications galore before he's more or less safely on the train delighted to see that pretty CO., ed from the same college is aboard, The story deals with three di- lemmas for Andy Hardy before his departure for college. He sells his jaloppy to a pal, who damages a greenhouse with it, and Andy IS held responsible as the owner be- cause the car is not paid for com pletely. Then a pretty girl makes fuss over him, and insists that his romantic behavior means a pro- posal of marriage. Also his father wants to go to college with him and introduce him to his friend the president, which Andy knows would make him an outcaSt with the fel lows,' but he hates to tell his fla ther this
 Mickey plays his role with infec- tious humor and Lewis Stone as Judge Hardy is inspiring. Fay Hol- den as Ma Hardy, Cecilia Parker as sister Marian and Sara Haden as Aunt Milly add to the humor and contribute human interest. A new charmer is introduced in Es- i ther Williams, famous as a swim ming champion, who is beautiful and an accomplished actress. Will liam Lundigan is convincing as Marian's sweetheart, and Ann Rutherford adds piquancy as Polly Benedict, Andys permanent girl friend.

art it is, too. Many people con-
fuse the terms inlay" and ''mar-
quetry," not realizing that although
marquetry is form of inlay, not
all inlay is marquetry. Inlaying
pieces of ivory, brass, bone, mother
of-pearl, tortoise shell or varying
colored woods into furniture, has
been going on since ancient days.
This form, known as 'Intarsia,"
was done by cutting gouges in q
piece of wood, and fitting oddments
of this and that into gouged-out
places to form a pattern. Whereas,
with marquetry the pieces of fine
wood are selected and formed sep
arately into beautiful pattern, face
downward. Then piece of paper
is glued to the back of the finished
work of art, and the whole design is
glued to the furniture it will adorn-
in the process we know as veneer
ing"
In the heyday of marquetry whole
families engaged in this art, and
various secrets were handed down.

BY ELIZABETH MacRAE BOYKIN


Doubtless you have admired the
beauty of inlay and marquetry de-
signs on furniture, without stopping
to wonder how they got that way.
1t is an old idea. The Egyptians
and Romans knew the trick, and
marquetry really came into it's own
in the 10th and 18th centuries, when
Dutch Masters perfected and intro
duced it into France and England.
But it remained for Chicago artist,
George Withhold, to bring marquetry
up to date by designing and execut-
ing elaborate murals, with wood as
the medium and marquetry as the
method. These great pictures, de-
plotting scenes of American life, are
6 by IL feet, and Mr.. Withhold, with
his assistants, uses 81 different
woods for his palette
The fine art of putting little pieces
of various colored woods together
into a beautiful pattern and apply
ing same to a piece of furniture is
called marquetry, and a very high
