FLAX SAVES
 CIGARETTES
 DAY IN U. 5,

PISGAH FOREST, N. C., Apri I29.-America's millions of cigarett, users might be smoking a pipe ol rolling their own with make-shift paper today if it hadn't been for a new-formula cigarette paper that appeared almost on the very day war broke out in Europe-Sept. | 1889.
 It wasn't that Ecusta Paper Cor poration or it's founders were pro- phetic. They, with Harry Straus president, had been working for years to perfect a cigarette wrapping paper manufactured direct from flax fibre.
 Before the war France and other European countries supplied Am erican cigarette manufacturers with wrapping paper made from linen rags. Since linen is made from flax, Straus and his chemists figured it ought to be possible to make the high-grade paper right from the flax.
 Straus had operated a paper mill in France before coming to America to launch experiments with flax.
 Eventually Straus' chemists evolv- ed successful formula for making flax cigarette paper. That done, they began looking about for a suitable site for the plant that was to be the literal savior of cigarette manufact- urers in this country when ship ments from France were blockaded.
 A prime requirement. for manu- facture of the paper-crystal pure water with no mineral content brought them to the French Broad valley here where the mountain fresh waters of Davidson River empty into the French Broad. Paper for wrapping cigarettes must be very thin, yet strong enough to withstand the ordeals of mechan- ical manufacture. It must not stick to the lips. It must not cause 8 foreign Odor or taste as it burns. The new product passed those tests, and soon 80 per cent of the domestic supply of cigarette paper was rolling off the machines al Ecusta. The percentage has since increased.

THIGH EXPLOSIVE" COMING SUNDAY
 T02OTH CENTURY

You've probably seen them on the road--trucks marked Danger, Nitroglycerine' passed them without giving thought to the men who drove them. Most people don't know that transporting nitro is one of the most dangerous jobs in the world, perhaps because it has been one of the least publicized. Para mount has made it the basis of an exciting, action filled movie called High Explosive starring Chester Morris, Jean Parker and Barry Sullivan, and is bringing it to the 20th Century Sunday.
 In it Morris portrays crack auto driver who turns from midget auto racing to nitro trucking when war breaks out in Europe and defense work becomes the order of the Am erican day. Morris friend and rival for the affections of Jean Parker, Barry Sullivan, owns the nitro concern to which Jeans kid brother also comes for job.
 Jean tries to dissuade her brother from the dangerous work, but he needs the big money he can earn at it and promises her that when he's saved $2,000 he will quit and get married. Morris gets involved with the kid, resulting in the boys death in an accident that could have been avoided.
 How Morris redeems himself in Jean's eyes and saves the day for the nitro company is said to make one of the most exciting pictures seen in recent months.
