POLES

Those Endea caring Young Charms" is playing today and to- morrow at the Loew-Poli theater. A highly diverting love triangle features in this romantic comedy starring Laraine Day and Robert Young, with Ann Harding and Bill Williams in the top supporting roles. Miss Day has the role of Williams girl urtil he foolishly introduces her to his lady-killing friend played by Young. Miss Hard ing plays the part of Miss Days mother, and guides her through the ensuing complications.
 The second attraction is the ex- citing postwar drama Identity Unknown" with Richard Arlen and Cheryl Walker in its leading roles.
 Starting Wednesday is the new. racy, romantic comedy Guest Wife" An ingenious device moti- yates this new film in which Don Ameche is co-starred with Claudette Colbert. The star who portrayed Alexander Graham Bell on the screen, and whose name has be- come synonymous with movie in- tentions. is currently introducing a new creation. the "kibble."
 A "kibble" according to Ameche's own phrasing in the script. goes something like this: When you want somebody to believe some thing, you tell the story and when you get a third person to confirm it-that's a "kibble."
 In Guest Wife" Ameche, as a globe-trotting reporter for a news syndicate, employees matrimonial "kibble," or conspiracy to extricate himself from web of unfortunate contradictions. Innocent persons hopelessly involved in the "kibble" are Miss Colbert, Richard Foran and Charles Dingle.
 Ingenious use of prismatic glass panels creates a new and inter- esting effect in one of the key movie sets. The circular set, fu- turistic cocktail bar, supposedly in one of New York's most lavish hoe tels, is lighted indirectly through its transparent walls. Beaded de- sign of the glass eliminates glare. and achieves an irridescent sparkle, said to be a distant novelty in films. Incongruously. the stars who enact several sequences of the story on

 The showmanship displayed by newsboys is sometimes uncanny.

PREMAsTICATIoN

I am 77 years old, have flat fleet. bum ears, eyes that see two moons where there should be but one (without my glasses) and no teeth. I do my own cooking and keep grinder for meat and vegetables. Into my double boiler I put one cup of quick oats, l cup of wheat germs. IA cup brown sugar or honey, two cakes yeast; the yolks of two eggs, one heaping tablespoon of de- hydrated powdered parsley leaves. I add boiling water and mix well to make a thick much and cook five minutes. This is one serving for me. With one pint of certified milk or half and half it has been my breakfast for years. It supplies all my minerals and vitamins for the day, except vitamin c which I get from two oranges or a cup of fresh or canned tomato juice. This fur nishes all the energy the union will permit a man to use for half days work. I seldom eat lunch, and eat dinner when I get hungry-five o'clock or later. Can you suggest AAAJ HI IIly Q1CU, O1 suggest an authoritative book on nutrition Although I have no teeth, my use of the grinder for meat and vegetables insures better mastication than my food ever had when had my teeth.
 (Signed s. J. O.
 can recommend two books, both available in your public li- brary: 'The Foundations of Nutri- tion," by Mary Swartz Rose, Ph. D., published by Macmillan, N. Y., and Chemistry of Food and Nutri- tion," by Henry c. Sherman, Ph. D.. Sc. D., published by Macmil- Ian.
 One improvement. among many I believe most nutritionists would suggest for your breakfast, is that you omit the yeast from the mix ture. Cooking destroys considerable of the vitamin B in yeast. Better to eat the yeast raw if at all. Still better, take few spoonfuls of dried brewers yeast, which is far richer in vitamins than yeast suitable for baking use and much less likely to cause fermentation.
 I'm sorry but it Is my duty to mention another serious error in your computation. If you had whole battery or grinders working like mad on meat, vegetables, ce- reals, or whatever you eat, your food would still be poorly masticat- ed, compared with the use of your own or your dentists masticating equipment. Mastication, sir, implies a good deal more than mere grind ing, chopping or crushing of food; that is incidental to the important part of the process-which is in- salvation and the digestion which begins while the morsel is still in the mouth, continues half an hour or more after the food has entered the stomach. Your kitchen grinder or mill thus doesn't give your stomach and other digestive organs a break. I lulls you into the notion that you can get by without teeth. Perhaps you can, for a while and in limited way-you known some people manage to deceive them selves they can get by like that without glasses. without a hearing aid or without an artifiical limb, when they might really enjoy the years remaining.

BEAUTIES HINTS
 Make-Up, Hair Should HarmOnize
BY ALICIA HART NEA Staff Writer

If you tamper with the color of your hair-either to tighten it and whoop up glory Or darken it to cover up a flock of tell-tale grays- do as much for your skin with makeup in order to preserve the harmonies between the two. Other wise, you'll have harsh contrasts which will be aging to your face or will advertise your secret in the world.
 With a thatch of artiicially frightened hair-golden, ale-colored or red-use makeup tighten the same number of degrees as your locks.
 Gray hair dyed back to it's original color, on the other hand, needs to have a companion makeup which is a couple of shades darker than the natural skin tone.
 Where eyebrows grow gray along with hair, darkening them to match the new shade of your locks is ne- cessary, if you want to keep your color dodge a closely guarded secret

And fun, I've no doubt. Then I come along, and I haven't the time to give you, I've a job I like, work which means a great deal to me. I don't utter when you approach. You're not used to that.

 Dan Graham came out on the porch and grinned at Frank. Devastated to interrupt he said mendaciously, but the music's started and I want a dance with Emily"
 He put his arm around her and moved toward the dance floor. Frank stared after them. She was probably right. He was bored, she was new, different and, as she had said, indifferent. That had piqued him, aroused his interest. Nancy all quick answers and provocative allurement he'd met a thousand girls like Nancy, but none like Emily. Temporary, was it? He show her!

WE, THE WOMEN

the time the story came out in the papers-was concerned only with marrying the girl and giving the kids a name. He didn't even speak of humiliation he had brought upon his young wife back home.
 And several times stories have come out about married service men who wrote their wives to please give them a divorce, so that they could protect the name of some girl they had been liv- ing with overseas. One Gentle man" even wrote his wife and the mother of his child that he didn't love the girl he had been living with, and loved only his wife. But he felt he was honor bound to marry the other woman, and would the wife please give him divorce.
 STRANGE IDEA
 And now comes the story of the army captain who, with wife and two children in this country married WAC ser geant III Germany and now says: T want more than anything else in the world to clear the name of the most wonderful person I have ever had the pleasure to meet-Kay." Kay is the WAC ser geant.
 If this new idea of chivalry takes hold generally, parents will have to back down on one of the beliefs they have always instilled in their daughters. That is. that the wife's position is unassailable, and that the girl who becames "the other woman" in a triangle can't expect any protection from the man in the case. That when it comes to a showdown, he will stand by his wife.
 The only protection wife will have is in the courts, if it be- comes generally, accepted that it is more important for a husband to protect "the other woman" than the wife. Strange idea of chivalry, isn't it? j.

The skirt was full and the bodice tight. She looked en- chanting and did not need Franks eyes or comments to tell her so.
 He warned, spinning her around ascorner:
 I'm falling in love with you, Emily"
 DfPlease don't" she said, gravely. Then she laughed. Its my red, white and blue, it's the night and the music. Tomorrow you'll feel quite differently"
 She hoped she spoke true proph- esy for every now and again she forgot she was having a good time. She remembered Millicent's eyes, her unhappy mouth and the anx- tous. triangular frown between her brows. And later, walking out on the big veranda, which faced the water, feeling Franks hand pos sessively on her arm, she was mis- erable and lonely. Nancy was home, alone. Jim was home

 You asked me-" she said, un- moved, "and I answered. Frank, don't be idiotic. Why spoil such a very pleasant evening""
 "I'm not giving up,' he said. T wish you'd take me seriously"
 T wish you'd take yourself seri- ously,' she told him, and then felt sorry she had said anything. Two years in the Army had taken care Of his personal debt to society.

 Emily felt she might as well fin ish what she'd begun.
