Now playing at LoWe-Poh IS MGM's "Valley of Decision" boast ing one of the top casts of the year-co-starring an outstanding new romantic team in Greer Gar son and Gregory Peck with Lionel Barrymore, Donald Crisp, Marsha Hunt and Preston Foster. Every one will deeply enjoy this outstand- ing film.
 Starting Wednesday local movie goers are in for the screen treat Of the year when Where Do We Go From Here" the musical like noth- ing on earth with a story that's out of this world. The picture, starring Fred MacMurray, Joan Leslie and June Haver and photo- graphed in dazzling technicolor, is being acclaimed as the lyrical mir acle of the year. A refreshingly daring innovation in screen enter tainment, the 20th Century Fox hit is as big, as lew, and delightfully."- different as anything ever to come out of Hollywood.

with a contrasting black center. Delphiniums are ideal as background plants when grown in groups of five or more, and especially beau- tiful when planted in combination with regal or madonna lilies.
 DelphiniumS do best in loose, friable soil rich in humus and plant nutrients, to which lime is added every second or third year. Drainage is essential and addi- tional fertilizer, rather high in nitrogen, should be made when the plants are six inches high, and at he time the plants are cut back following the first bloom. Dolphin bums want full sunlight or very httle shade, and need stalking for protection from strong winds. They. resent crowding - two feet oetween plants should be mini Num.
 Stalking is best done by placing 6-foot stake along side each olant and tying with soft twine or 'affia about 12 inches apart. Stalk ng should be done when the plants Ire about 3 feet tall.
 Seeds from the first blooms, and sown as soon as they have rip ened, will produce the best plants. Seed should be shown in a sifted sandy. peaty, loamy soil. Add no fertilizer to the seed mixture. Young plants will develop before frost and, if given protective mulch during the winter, will be large enough to transplant to the garden next spring. Protect seed .ings with an inch covering of coarse sand, and mulch lightly with straw or hay. Delphiniums are more likely to be killed by poor drainage or smothering than by freezing weather. Use seed only from the best plants and blooms.
 Delplainuns should be divided every third year. Dig up the plants. shake of the soil. and cut the clumps apart with a sharp knife

en, haven't voted to do away with the old mo married women teach CTS" rule That is still on the books, and will be unless the citizens of such communities get riled up over the injustice and stupidity of that kind of senseless discrimination. MARRIAGE WINS OUT
 Anybody would see exactly how ridiculous such bans against mar ried women teachers really are if they had to explain to a little girl that in some places she couldn't be both a wife and school teacher but would have to choose between the two.
 And they would undoubtedly find out how such rule cuts down on the quality of teaching personnel if they could hear a bright little girl of even six saying emphatically: Then if I can't be both, I guess I'll just get married"

STRAND

Picturesque and tricky monickers for movie actresses seem to be doing all right by their owners. The Gin gers,' 'Crickets and other prevoca- tive given names of the stars whose surnames are Rogers, Falkenburg and Edwards, have done their part in enchanting publicity and garn- ering fame.
 Now comes a Google" to add lus- Ire to the nickname brigade. This young star is Google Withers, who is featured in The Silver Fleet, the PRC picture now at the Strand.
 You can believe it or not, but Google means crazy in Dutch. For Googie's mother was Dutch, and it is recorded that the future movie stG lived up to her name as child. The first eight years of her life were spent in India. Durin< this time she spoke only Hindustani. Then she was taken to Holland, and eventual ly landed in England where she fi- nished her education at a school near Canterbury.
 The itch for acting broke out when she was twelve, and Google was sent to Italia Conti's school, where she stayed for three years. Her first Starring role was in the annual Christmas pantomime. Sub- sequently she studied acrobat dancing, doing cabaret and novelty shows until an accident stopped her acrobatics.
 While with show called Happy Week-end," Google got her big op- portunity. One of the principals be- came ill, and Google stepped into the part on five hours notice. She clicked, and at the end of the show a film casting director signed her up to play a part on the screen. Then she got another break. The leading lady walked out and Google fell heir to the part. She had jump ed from chorus to stardom in twen- ty-four hours
 Within short time Google had reached! the top as comedy star, then Michael Powell gave her the role of the Dutch girl, who befriends the British crew in One of our Air. craft is Missing" and her reputa- tion as dramatic actress was made
 In "The Silver Fleet" which stars Ralph Richardson, she again plays Dutch role, and scores as mov- ingly sincere actress.
 The companion feature is "The Town Went Wild, with Freddie Bartholomew and Jimmy Lydon.

 Harry Fishbein and I are not proud of the results we got on this hand and the one am going to give you tomorrow. The fact that we were asked to substitute may have affected the bidding some what. Certainly, my bid of one spade was sound enough, but now Harry is confronted with a problem. His hand is not strong enough to bid two no trump, while a bid of one no trump would be too weak That is why Harry bid two hearts. Even though East had bid three clubs, felt there was possibility of a small slam. I will admit that the four-club bid was little optimistic, but it was winner. When Harry went to four spades I boldly bid six
 West fell for my cue bid Of four clubs, and my bold bidding of six spades clearly indicated I did not have any losing club-that is why he opened the heart ace. However, at this point West should have shifted to a club, but he made the mistake of continuing with a heart Now you can see that the losing club can be discarded on the fourth heart. Had club been opened, the hand could actually be held to four odd.

Each division should have at least three good, strong shoots. Discard any poor looking roots. Mid-Sep- tember is the best time for plant ing. If you cannot make your plant ings in September, arrange to do SO in early spring, just as soon as the ground is workable.
 Delphiniums are often disap- pointment because of an insect known as the cyclamen mite. The plants appear to be blackened by something, become deformed and fail to grow. Poor drainage is a contributing cause for crown rot. fungus disease which forms at the base of the plant. Infected plants should be dug up and de- stroyed and the soil and neigh boring plants disinfected with a mercurial compound such as sem- esan, or bichloride of mercury. one seven and one-half grain tab- let to each pint Of water.

New York.-You can have a bag to match or contrast with every dress or suit you own, and they will cost you no more than a few cents apiece plus bit of effort.
 All you need is basic envelope type bag to begin with and a few scraps of leftover material. To copy the ruffled bag cover above, cut a paper pattern one-half inch larger than the bag-which will allow you enough for seams-enough to turn under the flap.
 For the ruffled edge, cut a 1 1-4- inch strip twice the length of the
