zines. / can see that. First of all,
/ get irritated no end at the
things they demand that every
woman do in order to be at least
halfway acceptable to the rest of
the world Try doing all those
things and you'll wear yourself
to a FRAGILE in month.
Just one thing that apparently
has to be done without further de-
lay is get a Mary Martin haircut.
According to these magazines, YOU
aren't fit 20 appear in public with
any other hair-do. Constant harp
ing on this one thing by fashion
experts is a pain in the neck
Never mind how your husband
likes your hair fixed; never mind
how you like it; run right out and
get your Mary Martin haircut,
Like fun I will.
The ads in these magazines are
something else again. Here is a
honey. A blurb for some actually
very ordinary-looking lingerie.

Here's another one. The illus
tration shows couple of normal
locking young people with arms
entwined. standing on a terrace
with a lot of stars twinkling
above. The young man is saying:
Tonight my dearest, we're close
to the stars" So far, so good. A
perfectly normal and romantic
thing for young man to say who

riage electee, the adj being a

gagement and wedding rings. But
wait. The ad goes on like this:
"As he spoke she, too, felt far
away dreaming of the dav
when a Palladium circlet would
join the Palladium engagement
ring he had just placed on her
finger"
My advice to any young man
whose fiancee has thoughts like
that at time like that is to boot
her in the boot her right off
the terrace, that is, and take his
Palladium engagement ring right
back and give it to some other
gal who never heard of Palla-

the ring is made of, indeed, in
stead of dreaming about the
patter of baby feet, like any
right-thinking young woman
would do.

Missionary Work Reported.
Among the most interesting re-
ports presented to the church
meetings have been those dealing
with the Inauguration or extern
sion Of missionary work overseas.
Three Lutheran bodies - the
Augustana Lutheran Church, the
Suomi diminish Lutheran Synod.
and the Lutheran Free Church
authorized the launching of mis-
sion work in Japan, which DIR. S.
H. Swanson, foreign mission di-
rector of the Augustana Church,
described as "at present peculiarly
receptive to mission work"
This is the first time in its his
tory that the Suomi Synod has
commissioned missionaries to a
foreign land. Two missionaries
were commissioned for service in
Japan at the Synod's annual con-
vention at Ishpeming, Mich. They
will leave this summer and will
be followed by two others in the
fall.
A new mission also has been
opened in Japan by the Cumber-
land Presbyterian Church. dele
gates to the denominations 120th

the Koza community near Tokyo,

The current convention season
has seen the completion of one
church merger and favorable steps
towards others.
In Minneapolis last week a new
Protestant denomination - the
Evangelical Free Church of Amer
ica-was formed by a merger of
the Evangelical Free Church of
America and the Evangelical Free
Church Association. The new de-
nomination has 10000 members in
IS States and in all the provinces
of Canada.
The United Evangelical Luth-
eran Church, at its annual con-
vention at Hutchinson, Mimi,
unanimously adopted a report
looking toward merger with the
American Lutheran Church and
the Evangelical Lutheran Church
Meanwhile, the Augustana Lu-
theran Church voted at its 91st
annual convention in Washington
D. c., to become one of the charter
bodies of the proposed National
Council of the Churches of Christ
in the United States of America,
which is to be formally constituted
next November.
Action SmasheS Precedent.
BY this precedent shattering ac-
tion, the AuguStana Church be-
came the first Lutheran body to
enter into full membership in a
national inter church organization
since Lutheranism came to Amer
lea more than 800 years ago. 1t
is believed that the United Lu-
theran Church, which meets in
october. will take similar action.
The AuguStana Church also ap-
proved a merger of the eight
Lutheran denominations affiliated
with the National Lutheran Coun-
Gil. The other seven bodies must
now vote on the merger.
Church unity was also q topic
at the General Assembly of the

GIVEN DIFFERENT ROLE,
 CAplT0L'5 BILL

Walter Pidgeons oft-repeated wish to play an entirely different type of character" is answered in his new role with Greer Carson in M-G-M's Technicolor picturization of That Forsyte Woman" based on Book One of John Galsworthy's '"The For syte Saga This feature closes at the Capitol Theatre tonight.
 As Young Jolyon Forsyte, he en- acts the so-called black sheep of the family who finally proves to be the only admirable member of the fabu- lous Forsytes.
 His love story with Miss Carson promises to set a new pattern in screen romance AS the brilliant ar tist but shy lover, Pidgeon is cast out by his purse-proud family for mar rying beneath him. Throughout the entire story set in fashionable Lon- don in the 1880's, he is content to sit on the sidelines while Miss Carson is wooed by two other suitors. Errol Flynn and Robert Young.
 The role is in marked contrast to Pidgeons recent starring roles in Julia Misbehaves" and Command Decision"

 While prefabricated parts of sub marines are still being carried by rail and canal to widely-scattered bases" the account continued, "ac- tual assembly of the prefabricated hulls and machinery has been slow ed down for the training, sea time and skill of the crews to catch up.
 My information is that the total of Russian submarines has reached 38O."
