Colleen Townsend, who forsook a film stars career to give her self to full time Christian work, is featured in the inspiring film, Great Discovery" to be shown at the Northern Light Presbyterian Church, next Sunday evening at 7:30 o'clock. Miss Townsend. whose voluntary relinquishing of highly lucrative. contract with 20th Cen tury-Fox Studios, was followed by mighty wave of publicity, found Christ as her personal saviour some three years ago." says the Rev. Willis R. Booth, "and since that time the conviction has increased that she should use her life and tal- ents to bring the Gospel invitation to others, as it was brought to her.
 Last summer Colleen worked as member of a Gospel team, Wit messing in the displaced persons camp in troubled Europe. Her desire to. serve Christ was so keen that she underwent many privations in order to bring the story of the love of Christ to those who had lost every material possession Others in the all Christian cast of Great Discovery" are Noel Ray burn, Carol Abrams and Charles Turner, tenor soloist of the Haven of Rest Quartet. No admission charge will be made, but free- will offering will be received to defray the cost of bringing the film to Juneau.

Plums galore, mainly from Cali
fornia and Michigan, will be NOV
ing into the markets this first week
of August. If you're a bit bewild-
cred by the color, size and texture
Of the various types of plums you
see around in the fruit bins, you
have plenty of reason. Plums are
credited with having the greatest
range in kinds and species of any
Of the "Stone fruits"

ing with seed imported from ia
pan. The Burbank" named after
the great horticulturist and one of
the important varieties, is a large,
globular fruit, bright cherry red,
mottled yellow, in color. The flesh
is golden yellow, juicy and sweet.
The Santa Rosa" purplish Grim
son in color, is another early-sea-
son plum. The "Duarte" is still
another variety you'll see around.
This one is quite large, about the
same color tone as the Santa Rosa
but the flesh is a dark red when the
fruit is ripe. Fresh plums are not
only good for eating out of hand
but they make a flavor contrast to
other fruits when used in salads.
And if you can bear the
thoughts of a little extra kitchen
work these hot, humid days, they
make wonderful jams and spreads.

In addition to plumS, peaches
and blueberries are good buys, as
are apples, lemons, lines, oranges
and most of the melon family are
selling at lower prices. Speaking
of melons, have you seen and
tried the new midget watermelons
originated and developed in New
Hampshire? They're just the
right size for a twosome, and
small enough to go in some of the
pint-size kitchenette refrigerators.
You needn't worry about flavor
because they have been developed
with all the sweetness and fine
texture of their big brothers. The
flesh is almost a blood red, the
seeds are small and the rind thin.
You'll find them at a speciality
fruit store on F street.
Tomatoes, another headliner for
the week, are pouring into the
markets from New Jersey. Whole
sale prices on tomatoes took a.
substantial drop in price last
week end, while they're still a.
good buy. prices have risen slight

tories started full-scale packing
