before the nation, while industry
is seriously considering postwar
plants and expansions, not after
final decisions have been made.
The Board therefore approved the
schedule as. above shown and
while the State could have more
than justified spending many
times the total money involved,
the results from this modest pro-
gram have been encouraging.
Proofs of. the State advertise
ments are mailed each month to
state, county and city officials;
to chambers of commerce; and
to those interested citizens who
request them.
MANY of the newspapers OF
Mississippi also carry reprints of
the State advertisements each
month as a matter of public in
terest to their readers. In this
way their readers can see what
their State is doing to secure adj
ditional industries and thereby
provide more jobs and payrolls
for Mississippi communities after

SON OF LASSIE'
 NEW MCM CLASSIC
L0ew-Poli's Theater Offers Breath-taking Techni-
 color Masterpiece

Here's the blessed movie event you've been waiting for, film fans! It's Son of Lassie," the new MGM hit at the Loew-Poli theater, in which Lassie's son, Laddie, proves a worthy son of wonderful moth CT. Everyone loved "Lassie Come Home" and everyone will rave about Son of Lassie," filmed in breath taking technicolor amid Americas most rugged splendors.
 Donald Crisp and Niegel Bruce re- peat the roles they created in the previous success. Peter Lawford plays Joe grown up and pretty June Lockhart, in her most important role to date, is the Dukes grand daughter, Priscilla, played in Lassie as a child by Elizabeth Taylor.
 Son of Lassie" tells of Laddie, a foolish little pup who grows up to follow his daring young master into many danger and passes the true test of courage when courage means life itself. It takes us from York shire, LasSie's home, to an air mis- sion over occupied Norway, where Laddie and Joe are forced to para chute into danger and dog and mas ter spend perilous days battling the enemy both physically and in duels of wits. Scenes filmed in Canada for these sequences were made on Vancouver Island and the famous Canadian Rockies.
 "Son of Lassie" is fast-moving picture that will keep your eyes riveted on the screen from start to finish. All the human actors turn in fine, sympathetic roles. In addition to those already mentioned, little Billy Severn, Leon Ames, Nils As ther, making a grand comeback, and Robert Lewis give fine performances.
 The second attraction on this pro- gram is Sporting Chance with Jane Randolph and John O'Malley.

BETTY CRABLE IN
 MUSICAL TRIUMPH
Diamond Horseshoe" Hit Now Playing at Strand
 Theater

Score another sensational music al hit for eBtty Grable and 20th Century-Fox. In fact, Billy Roses Diamond Horseshoe" which is now at the Strand theater with glam- orous Grabel at her best and 20th Century-Fox going all-out with a spectacularly eye-thrilling techni- color production, easily tops the years musical field in outstanding screen entertainment.
 Betty Grable is seen as Bonnie, the girl with the most beautiful legs on Broadway, headliner in the cast of the Diamond Horseshoe" show, fiercely jealous of her position and hardened to everything but her own success. When fate spins TO- mantle web over which Betty trips and falls head-over-heels in love with Dick Haynes, son of her bit terest rival Civilian Gaxton) for spotlight honors, Betty is faced with a challenge that serves as basis for one of the most intriguing love stories of the year.
 In more than the immediate, ob- vious sense, her current film shows Betty Grable off to better advantage than ever before. Betty (complete, of course, with her justly celebrat- ed underpinnings) sings and dances in the style that has made her undisputed Pin Up Queen. Her handling of scintillating songs hits by Mack Gordon and Harry Warren plus her dancing in the spectacular "Capulco" number are brilliant highlights in the film, and are treat enough in themselves. But more than that, the exciting and story reveals her as a really top dramatic actress.
 Dick Haynes, granerS new honors in this, his most important picture to date.
 In addition to Brable and Haynes There is Phli Silvers, William Gax- ton, Beatrice Kay, Carmen Caval- laro, Willie Solar; and others.
 The companion feature is Strange Illusion, starring Jimmy Lydon and Warren William.

Actually it can't be called a swing version in the sense of those two or three swing versions of "Ihe Mikado" some half dozen years ago. Those followed the Gil- bert and Sullivan original from curtain to curtain. Memphis Bound" is more concerned with a story of it's own than it is with "Pinafore" and you get only about half an hour of G. & S. toward the end of the first act. The music of Sullivan's that is used is in swing tempo, of course.
 The libretto that Albert Barker and Sally Benson have concocted is something probably never will be ablet o understand completely. I do realize that it is about group of Negroes with a stranded river boat who are trying to put on & performance of "Pinafore" to raise some funds. That's about as far as I go, missing up on the finer points of Robinson's simulated klepto- mania, his romance and other side issues.
 The great tap dancer was in his usual rare form, dancing like a youngster on opening night, which was the eve of his 67th birthday. He and Avon Long, an eccentric dancer of wondrous skill, take what honors there are to be had. I could have stood considerably more of Ann Robinson, who is a raucous- voiced cutup.
 Other players include Edith Will son, Billy Daniels, Ida James, Sheila Guys, Ada Brown, Thelma Carpenter, Frank Wilson and Timothy Grace.
 When there is dancing going on and you can forget about the so- called story. it is possible to enjoy the show. Both the individual and chorus work in this department is excellent. The singing, however, is only fair to middling, unusual for a Negro musical.
 I almost forgot to mention that, not content with barbecuing Pin afore," the authors also have tossed in fragment of Trial by Jury" in the second act in a man. ner so preposterous that they must have spent weeks thinking it up.

New Perfume
 $75AnOunce
By JOAN YOUNGER

New York, June 15.-CUP)-Ber- nadine De Tuvache, or Mrs. Howard Angus to her friends, sat in the scented suite today and discussed the simplicity of getting OPA ap- proval for $75 an ounce (plus tax) ceiling price for perfume.
 Tt was no trouble at all" she said. T simply submitted the cost sheets on the rare oils I used and got their oky on the price"
 The perfume was named Zezan Madame De Tuvache likes the sound of z's. The OPA had nothing to do with this. It was put on the market last week, and doing very nicely, she said.
 According to Madame De Tuvache, the perfume was compounded from oils imported from all over the world" in a secret formula which took years of background and year and half of experimentation to work out. It was then aged for an- other year and presented to the public in one ounce bottles. The bottles are shrouded in gold-burn- ished sculped African heads, flor a romantic touch"
 It was not, however, the most ex- pensive perfume in the world.
 An earlier Tuvache model, "Jas- min of Egypt" topped it. Brought out in 1e41, "Jasmin" sells for s100 an ounce (plus tax).
 Madame De Tuvache. who former ly wrote plays, said that she be- came interested early in life in the history of perfume, and began col- lecting rare perfumes and rare per- fume bottles. It became her busi- ness when friends asked that she compound perfumes for them, she said.
 ITO me, perfume has existed largely because perfume makes wo- men desirable to me-" she said. Per fume has an emotional quality - as powerful as music. It has also held religious significance.
 Tt is an art with me. I am happy that people appreciate my art enough to want my perfume"
