POLI'S

Now playing at the Loew-Poli the ater is Along Came Jones'" in which thrill-packed action and sparkling romance vie with gay comedy with Gary Cooper and Loretta Young in starring roles
 This refreshingly novel action drama gives Cooper one of his finest roles as quixotic range-rider who, in order to do a favor for a lady, poses as a notorious bandit in spite of the fact that he's the worlds most inept bad man. The earnest endeavors of various parties to kill the pseudo-outlaw on sight, the vindictive jealousy of the real bandit, and the tangled emotions of frontier girl who is trying to help the masquerader escape, all make for dramatic complications that frequently have their hilarious

HOLLYWOOD, Sept. I7.-A few years ago, with George Sanders starred as "The Falcon" RKO filmed Raymond Chandler's murder mystery, "f'erewell, My Lovely" Be- cause the Falcon Series" was re- garded as Glass B product, intended for the lower half of dual bills, the picture was given low budget, a short shooting schedule and slip shod craftsmanship. If reflected the studios disregard and created nary a ripple of fan interest.
 This year, the same story was screened again. The new title se- lected was Murder, My Sweet" and 1t was scheduled as a Class A pie ture, co-starring Dick Powell, Claire Trevor and Anne Shirley. Given adequate shooting schedule, top notch director and quality work manship throughout. 1t proved tp be box-offlce sensation,
 It seems to me that there's an indictment of studio policy some where along the line. The essential ingredients. in both instances, were the same: the only difference be- tween the Class B dud and the Class A screen gem being in the amount of effort expended. Holly woods constant flow of inferior product Is, in large measure. de- liberate and completely unneces- sary.
 If a manufacturer of woolens. for instance, turns out two lines of mer- chandise, one good and the other bad he Is justified to an extent by the fact that he sells the inferior product at reduced prices. Holly wood can offer no such alibi. Thea ter admissions are the same for all pictures, irrespective of quality. and a movie producer should be honor bound to make the most of all ma terial given him.

this needn't have happened Headstrong, foolish girl what did she think this was going to ac- complish?
 Mrs. Pelham answered. Her husband was out on call. She would try to reach him at once.
 Mrs. Kittridge had not moved two feet from the telephone when 1t rang and she snatched 1t before 1t could ring again. Who could be calling2 Hildreths crisp voice vibrated in her ear before she could speak. Corinne, is some- thing the matter? Is Thayer all right? Mrs. Wilton says Thayer was here late last night; she seemed upset. We had gone to Jennie Lakes. Mrs. Wilton was so bothered that she called just now when her husband left for work early as 1t is."
 'Sh-h-h!' said Mrs. Kittridge unconsiously. Not so loud, Hll- dreth, you'll wake Brock. Nothing is the matter; nothing at all. I'll phone yof later" She hung up over Hildreth's approximation.
 
 CHE was not prepared for the O doctors so-speedy arrival. She went down the stair once more as she heard the car to open the door before he should ring
 It was Dr. Lacey. He said. What's up?" in that brusque way she so disliked. "Dr. Pelham has an appendix on his hands, so I came. Is 1t? :" tt
 Tt is my daughter-in-law, Doc- tor; she has fatnted in the hall- way upstairs. IT can't move her or I shouldn't have called you. Please be as quiet as you can; my son sleeps so poorly and his rest is so essential to him."
 Dr. Lacey strode ahead of her up the stairs. Then she heard the door of Brooks room open and his call. "Mom, is anything wrong?"

 Something is the matter with Thayer," she challenegd. What are you trying to do to that girl, Corinne? Cruelty her?"

CAN YOU TAKE IT?

This is the menu for three meals submitted by a high school girls physical education class:
 Breakfast
 Juice of half a lemon in hot water
 Eight ounces orange juice
 Large serving wheat germ cereal One cup milk on cereal
 One slice wholewheat toast
 One-half pat butter IF slices bacon, dripped
 Sott boiled egg
 Half pint (8-oz.) whole milk.
 Lunch
 8-oz glass tomato juice
 8-oz. glass whole milk
 1 wheat germ muffin
 One-half pat butter
 Large serving carrot and raisin salad on lettuce, with one table, spoonful nnayonnaise
 One-half cantaloupe
 Dinner
 shrimp cocktail (6 medium shrimp
 Stuffed tomato salad with stalk of celery on lettuce, tablespoonful mayonnaise
 Beef liver and onions
 Green steamed asparagus
 One pat butter
 One whole wheat roll
 One pat butter
 Stewed apricots Half pint @ oz.) whole milk
 tablespoonful cod liver oil
 These high school girls and their physical education teacher q sup pose the girls do not realize how lucky they are to receive physical education and especially to have such a fine teacher) estimates that the menu for the day provides the following:
 vitamin A, 5l, 900 units
 Vitamin B1 (thiamine), 5,731 units
 Vitamin c 4,000 units
 vitamin D 2000 units
 Vitamin G, 4,600 units
 Calcium, 2,900 mg.
 Phosphorus $500 mg.
 Iron. 42 mg.
 CalorieS 2,900
 These figures are we'll above the minimum daily requirements of the essential vitamins and minerals according to the National Research Councils estimates.
 Now arises the question whether an ordinary person can take 1t as 1t is given in the menu. I can't even begin to take it-that lemon juice in hot water would stop me. How ever, may be unduly prejuaiced against it-though I go for lemon rneringue pie or for lemonade If there is enough sugar in it. I hope some of you readers will serve as guinie pigs-try the menu for a day and see whether you can take 1t. I'll settle for the breakfast, with these amendments: Either whole wheat toast or wheat ceral-never both bread and cereal; and a man. sized pot of coffee with sugar and cream in place of the lemon juice I believe I might stagger along somehow on the lunch as is. I could stay with you nearly all the way through the dinner, too-but goodness goshnesS, girls, how did that fish liver oil get in their? Don't tell me you like 1t on your apricots. If you don't mind I'll go out and take the air while you girls are sipping your fish oil. Don't you worry about me, now-I'll just nibble three or four of these pleas ant tablets and get more vitamin D than you'll get from your es- Sence of cod,

QUESTIONS and ANSWERS Unsanitary HOusekeeDinR

Housekeeper throws the water she scrubs the floor with into the sink, washes out the sink with dish cloth, then washes vegetables in the sink to prepare them for meals. When told her that might spread disease she laughed 1t off with the reply that we don't eat out of the sink, she has always thrown scrub water into the sink and nobody has taken any sickness. (J. E)
 Answer-Better way to dispose of scrub water Is via bathroom closet drain. Of course thorough washing of sink with soap and water would make 1t perfectly safe to prepare food in or to eat from, in any cir cumstance. Soap and water is the most reliable disinfectant or anti. septic for that purpose.

 Evidently these hospital heads fear that World War II veterans will in time become as much for- gotten men as did the World War I veterans. after the wartime fever of patriotims subsided with the peace.
 One such embittered veteran of the Spanish American War, after being visited by members of an organization formed during this war to entertain servicemen, said: I'm glad we had another war. Until recently we hadn't had a visitor in 20 years"
 ORGANIZED PLANS
 But how are we going to make ourselves remember the men who year after year lie in beds and sit in wheel chairs because they fought our wars for us2 If we are prodded into remembering, then perhaps Ne will go on with organ- ized plays for making the lives oe wounded veterans a little bit hap pier. a little less lonely.
 Shouldn't 1t be a project for our women's clubs2 Not the kind of project where a group of middle aged women go once year to the local veterans hospital with bright smiles and cookies. But we'll thought out program where the vet- erans get the best entertainment whenever 1t is available in the town and where whatever Is done for the veterans is done from their point of view and with only their interests in mind.
 At least 1t Is something for women to be thinking about--now that so many of their wartime projects have come to an end.

CHATTER XIV HILDRETH'S house was dark. HI Thayer tried the door, shook the knob. She cried. Aunt Hil- dreth Aunt Hildreth. You've got to be here you've got to-" She was crying now unaware, of it. She pounded again. Oh, Aunt Hildreth, open the door. Please .'' She did not see a blind tipped in the house adjoining; she was too i'll to notice or to care. One terrible realization was para mount-Hildreth's absence. May be--just maybe, she had gone over to see Brock By the time the woman next door had come down. stairs to make inquiry, Thayer had got into her car and was driving toward home.
 Once more she let herself in. The house was dark and quiet. It must be late, very late. She crept up the long stairs. holding to the bannister. She was sinking down on her bed before she real- ized that the telephone was down. stairs. And she had to telephone yes, telephone.
 But she couldn't move. She could only lie there, frightened and despairing, trying to push away the knowledge that was closing in upon her relentlessly.
 It must have been hours later when she called Mrs. Kittridge. She called several times before the words came out loudly enough.
 She looked up with dull eyes when her mother -in-law finally stood in the room. What is 1t, Thayer? You were dreaming; you called out"
