"Get Hep to Love." with Gloria
Jean. Donald O'Connor. Jane Frazee.
Ropert Paige.
On one but a confirmed surpuss
could fail to respond to wholesome,
sympathetic Gloria Jean, who, hand
ed a first rate screenplay, makes the
most of her talents—vocal and his
trionic. Gloria moves winningly
through the story which concerns a
young singer, who, driven on from
concert hall to concert hall by an
aunt who has her heart in an ice
box and her eyes on the boxoffice
receipts, seeks refuge in the home of
an unsuspecting, unhappy young

"The Amazing Mrs. Holiday,” with

A delightful, human, modern-cin

golden. It is hard to conceive of a
more nearly perfect vehicle for De
anna Durbin's return to the screen
after an absence of more than a year.
Tailored for all ages and classes, the
screenplay is an expert blending of
clean comedy, heart-tugging pathos,
and romance. A naive American girl,
raised in a Chinese mission-school,
she and nine refugee war orphans
are sole survivers of a torpedoed
freighter. In order to get the child

Ceiling Prices on
Used Bedsprings
-<8>
Atlanta. Ga. — Dollars-and-cents
ceiling prices on used metal coil and
flat bedsprings. which in some crowd
ed war centers have been selling
higher than original cost, are now in
effect, the regional Office of Price
Administration announced today.
Limited production of new bed
springs and an unusually large de
mand for used springs. OPA said,
brought about the necessity for ceil
ings. which are established at whole
sale and retail. Tire new regulation
applies to five types of springs, and
requires retailers to attach a tag to
each sprnig indicating its maximum
price. A sale by one person to an
other comes under the regulation, as
do sales at auction.
The five types are listed as link
wire fabric, crimp top coil, cable wire
and steel band top, single deck coil,
and full double deck coil. Wholesale
price ceilings on these range from
$1.50 for the first type, to $3 for the
latter, and retail prices are $3.50 to
$6.50 depending on the type.
“Reconditioned” bedsprings are
identified as those which meet these
requirements: properly aligned
frame, replacement or repair of miss
ing or damaged parts, secure fasten
I ing of all parts, proper alignment of
top surface, and complete repainting
of bedspring.
Such "reconditioned" spring can
not sell for more than $3.50-$6 at
wholesale, or $7-$10 at retail, the
highest price in each case being for
the double deck coil type only.

“Plymouth's Community Asset”
THE OLD JUDGE SAYS..
“You were absolutely correct in making the
statement you did, George... not a drop of
whiskey has been distilled in this country since
last Fall.'’
“That’s what I told the boys down at the
lodge, Judge, but they were so surprised I
thought maybe I was wrong.”
“Noyou weren’t, George. The truth of the
matter is that a year before Pearl Harbor,
the beverage distilling industry voluntarily
offered its facilities to the government. Many
companies started to produce alcohol for war
purposes almost immediately. And just as
soon as the government’s requirements in
creased, thedistilling facilitiesof the ent ire in
dustry were converted 100% to the produc
tion of war-alcohol and nothing else. Asa mat
ter of fact, the beverage distilling industry
isiproducing about half of the government's
needs for this vital war material. And that’s
a 24 hour a day, 7 day a week job, George."
‘‘I'm glad 1 told you about my talk with
Sam, Judge. You’ve given me a lot more facts
on that subject.”
