By VIRGINIA VALE (Released by Western Newspaper Union.) PANAMA HATTIE,” M-G 1 M’s lavish version of the successful Broadway musical, is well under way. The initial set disclosed Ann Sothern in a night club, singing one of *he show’s best songs, and dancing while two hundred soldiers, sailors, marines and tourists served as a background. An expert passed judgment on the set, uniforms, etc.—she is Mamie Kelly, for 25 years operator of the most famous night club in Central America, at Panama City. She declared that Rags Ragland looked more like a sailor than a sailor himself—and she’s seen thou sands of them! —*— For the eighteenth time in his life Richard Dix was made an hon orary sheriff the other day; he’s making “Tombstone,” and his role is that of Wyatt Earp, the famous peace officer of Arizona in the state’s wilder days. —*— Not since flame-haired Clara Bow took the movie world by storm has Hollywood seen a personality so vi brant as Frances Neal, according FRANCES NEAL to Frank O’Connor, who directed the famous “It” girl in most of her films. He’s playing an important role in RKO Radio’s “Lady Scar face,” in which she makes her film debut. Director Frank Woodruff dubbed her “Titian TNT,” and O’Connor thinks it fits. The job of doing the raucous, old fashioned ring-master’s voice for Walt Disney’s “Dumbo” has been handed to Herman Bing. The task of recording voices for the part seemed endless—actual ring mas ters, rodeo and prize fight announc ers and circus barkers were tried out for it, before Herman won by a throat full of r’s. Bob Hope and Jerry Colonna have acquired new honors, too. They are j honorary members of the Salt Lake City police force; the award was made at the city’s recent police ' show, with some 10,000 people look ing on. Rosalind Russell is right at home in M-G-M’s “Her Honor,” in which she’s a woman judge. Her family’s practically all lawyers on the male side—she can count seven without pausing to think. As a child she used j to hide in her father’s court room in Waterbury, Conn. — once she managed to do it when he was try ing a thrilling murder case. She’d probably have been a lawyer if she hadn’t had what it takes to be a movie star; as it is, she draws up her own contracts and lets it go at that. Preston Foster, star of Para- . mount’s “The Morning After,” had j a swell idea the other day. He ! bought two football tickets for every game to be played by the Univer sity of California at Los Angeles, and the University of Southern Cali fornia, and sent them to the morale office at Camp San Luis Obispo; the office is to conduct hard luck contests, and the buck private who’d had the toughest luck each week will be given the tickets, put up at the best quarters in Los Angeles, and pro vided with a pretty girl as a com panion at the game. Joe Marshall has a bigger job than washing an elephant each day; he paints one every morning. Sprays a two-ton beast from ears to toenails with gray-white water color so that he won’t blend into the background during Technicolor shots for “Malaya,” the Dorothy Lamour jungle thriller. —%— ODDS AND ENDS—Constance Bennett ungs a nice little ditty in Warner Bros.’ "Wild BiU Hickok Rides"—tfs called “The Lady Got a Shady DeaT . . . The famed University of Southern California Trojan band marches and plays in the big football rally scene in "The Male Ani mal” . . Baseball’s cloum, Al Schacht, is still lamenting because he had to miss the World Series, for the first time in years; he was in Hollywood testing to play himself in Goldwyn’s Lou Gehrig picture . . Now the movies will again make the name of Smith famous—this time with Robert Young playing the title role in “Joe Smith, American " HALLOWEEN TRICKS FOR OCTOBER’S FAVORITE PARTY (See Recipes Below) WITCHES’ NIGHT OUT Spooks and fun while the goblins, black cats and ghosts make merry— isn t that an in spiration to have t one grand, merry party before the winter sets in?

First of all, decorations and ta ble settings don’t have to be letter perfect, for you can have the most fun in the midst of the basement or barn decorated with sheaves of cornstalk, pumpkin faces, rakes, hoes and goblins made of sheets. For your table use a large piece of burlap or cotton sacks sewed together and dyed scarlet or gold. A centerpiece of pump kin with candles inside the hol low or fruit and burnished au tumn leaves will bring cheers. Write fortunes and place them in apples or nuts. Play pin the tail on the cat.

D. D. Dean of The Moody Bible Inetltute of Chicago. (Released by Western Newspaper Union.) Lesson for October 26 Lesson subjects and Scripture texts a* lected and copyrighted by International Council of Religious Education; used by permission. CIVIC RESPONSIBILITY RE GARDING BEVERAGE ALCOHOL LESSON TEXT—Deuteronomy 5:33, 33; 11:26 28; Isaiah 28:1-6; Habakkuk 3:12. GOLDEN TEXT—Righteousness exalteth • nation: but sin Is a reproach to any people.—Proverbs 14:34. Legal approval of the sale of alco holie beverages has largely taken the matter out of the hands of the home and the church and has made liquor a civic problem. That, of course, does not provide us with a convenient excuse for evading our personal responsibility, for the na tion is made up of you and me, of your home and mine, of your church and mine. We must share the na tion’s responsibility gladly and. ac tively if we are to be worthy of our citizenship. Especially is that true of the Christian, for he sees the spiritual and moral implications of the matter, and he also knows what to do about it. I. “Righteousness Exalteth a Na tion; but Sin Is a Reproach to Any People” (Deut. 5:32-33; 11:20-28). That may sound a bit old-fashioned and it may appear that men have abrogated that principle, but if we wait a bit we shall see that it still works. 1. Righteousness Brings Blessing (Deut. 5:32, 33; 11:26, 27). In this callous and indifferent generation we need to lepeat with emphasis the fact that there is laid down in the very constitution of the universe a moral distinction between right and wrong. Right is always right and wrong is always wrong. The book of Deuteronomy piesents the fundamental laws of God. In this fifth chapter there is a review of many of these laws and a practi cal appeal for obedience. It is point ed out that the way of liberty in the walk of life is to turn neither to the extreme of legal bondage nor to the opposite extreme of human license, but to “walk in all the ways which the Lord your God hath commanded you.” Walking in His ways brings all the blessings of Deuteronomy 5:33, a promise which is repeated in 11:27. 2. Unrighteousness Brings Judg ment (Deut. 11:28). Turning aside from God’s ways must bring upon man His curse. It is no light mat ter to be under God’s disapproval. We who know how much the approv al or disapproval of frail human be ings around us may mean, should consider what it means in the life of a man (or of a nation) to have the eternal, omnipresent and omnipo tent God against him. Then what about a people which countenances the manufacture and the sale of intoxicants, which they well know bring about wickedness and vice which can only call for the judgment of God. Many believe that the great war in which the world is embroiled is simply God’s judgment upon the nations (including England and America) because they have turned aside from His holy ways. That means that the most effective way to stop the conflict is national penitence and prayer. Why not be lieve and practice II Chronicles 7:14? II. Civic Greatness Cannot Be Built on Sin and Oppression (Isa. 28:1-6; Hab. 2:12). Yes, that sounds old-fashioned too! The theory of today seems to be that the road to greatness is by way of disregard of God’s laws, and by the application of the mailed fist of cruel conquest. But let us remem ber that others have tried the same violation of God’s law, and let us recall what happened to them. Did you ever hear of Napoleon?—of Al exander the Great?—of the “glory that was Greece”?—and the world conquering power of ancient Rome? Modern military leaders could well afford to spend less time on their books of strategy and their war maps and more time reading the Bi ble and the pages of history. 1. Drunkenness and National De cay Go Together (Isa. 28:1-6). The leaders of Israel (Ephraim) lingered long over their wine bowls as they spoke with pride of their nation, and especially of Samaria, its crown. It was a city beautifully situated on a hillside surrounded by a fertile terraced hillside. Does not that all have a vaguely familiar sound? A great nation of our day which now lies in bondage to its neighbor dictator not long ago spoke with pride of its attainments and its security, while (according to the testimony of its own leaders) the use of intoxicants went on apace, even in the army. 2. Permanent Power Cannot Be Built on Oppression (Hab. 2:11). Here again history reveals the cor rectness of Scripture. Many a na tion has sought to find its “place in the sun” by building with the blood of its vanquished enemies. It has never worked, and it will fail now just as it has in the past. What about the city, state, or na tion that attempts to promote its own growth out of the taxes on liq uor and its sale? PATTERNS SEWING I]!

This Far-Seeing Father IF as Taking No Chances As Smith and Jones were wait ing at the bus stop, a passer-by stopped and asked Jones the time. Jones did not reply. After the stranger had passed on, Smith asked: “Why didn’t you answer him?” “Well, it’s this way,” Jones re plied. “If I’d told him the time, he might have got chatting, and in the end I might have asked him home to supper. “There he might have met my daughter and they might have fallen in love. Finally they might have got married. “And let me tell you, I don’t want a fellow for my son-in-law who can’t afford to buy a watch.” Best Chance There is in the worst of for tune the best of chances for a happy change.—Euripides.
