I think fiicb amusing pro ductions a* .Mickey Mouse and Hilly Symphonic are not only the best -oil of eotifdy entertainment but ibcj aw almost tic only original lorm of mi which the movies huve d*/elo)n-u. In such pictures n-i those, and in I otam'els nod travel picture, the movies give something which the stage* cannot o tfer. Much of the i other stuff shown on the screen these ?lu \ ss consists of ooor substitutes for real plays presented by real actors. They do bring the drama ? of a sort? within the reuch of everybody, but Ihnt is not to say that every type of drama ia wholcbomo for everybody, yWt the effort of Mr.j Will Mays to "clean up'' the movies,! but 1 don't think he is making vary' much headway, to judge by home talkies I have scon lately, 'fberi? is ton e excimo for a play which deals with More <>r less delicacy with illicit ?s>\ relation.^, when it is confined to a fciugle flutter and audiences of presumably sophisticated adults.

If :i married woman driving her car injures somebody else her husband en/- he sued jointly with her and made to pay fl le entire damages. If she gives her husband any money it i? a loin in law, but anything he gives her is a gift. No action can be taken ag.iinst a wife for deserting her husband, but she can haVe her husband arrested if he deserts her. A husband must pay the income tax on his wife's income if she fails toj do so, and if shp owed him money! before they were married he cannot) collect it after marriage.
