Use Song Hits To Tell Time In ‘Serenade’ Hollywood’s most recurring headache concerns itself with a means of getting over the pass age of time, in a screen story, without resorting to such fami liar devices as calendars, news paper datelines, clocks and hour glasses. George Stevens, pro ducer-director o f Columbia’s “Penny Serenade,” which stars Irene Dunne and Cary Grant at the Dolly Madison Theatre, Sun • day, Monday and Tuesday ,hus solved the problem nicely. The romantic story of “Penny Serenade” covers approximate ly ten years, and the gradual passage of the years is denoted by Stevens with the popular music hits of the day and the dances that were then in vogue.

At Longhurst Special Dress Form For Bill In “Lady” Role i A new dress form has appear ed in the swank fitting room of the Mf-tro-Goldwyn-Mayer stu dios, and scrawled across its chest in pencil is the name of William Powell. * For Powell for the first time in his long career wears dresses for a hilarious disguise scene in his new Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer comedy. “Love Crazy,” in which he co-stars with Myrna Loy. “Love Crazy” comes Monday and Tuesday to the Palace Theatre. The dress form was made tovia cilitate fittings, an unaccustomed item in the list of Powell’s “things to do” before a film gets underway. To Dolly Tree went the unu sual job of designing Powell's ensemble after the smartest lines of the current season. It is a semi-tailored number, with hat and accessories to match. Pow ell went to the stage in a car and hid there during there se quences. He was afraid of the 1 ribbing he would have gotten! outside. Pay Your Telephone Bill By The 10th Making America’s Speediest Plane ■ Ml mb' Workmen are shown swarming over Lockheed P-38 interceptors on the production line (left) in the Lock heed plant at Burbank, Calif. After a P-38 was clocked at 458 miles an hour in its first public performance, army officials acclaimed it “America’s fastest plane.” Right: One of the first P-38s to come off the production line. In the background are several Lockheed-Hudron bombers waiting to be flown to Britain. Person County Farm Notes Barnyard Milk Route: We have the most encouraging report from the Bushy Fork Milk Route. On May Ist the first milk was collected—so gal lons per day. At the end of three weeks the collection had in creased to 100 gallons per day. The prospects are bright for 150 gallons per day by June 15th. A number of people have cal led at -the County Agent’s office asking for information in regard to the establishment of similar routes in the county. In any nei ghborhood group that can fur nish 25 to 50 gallons per day to begin with, we will be glad to meet with the neighbors and see if a plan can be worked out for a milk route. A New Opportunity in Poultry: Today there is a better outlook in the poultry industry than a long time. A real opportunity for the sale of first-class hatching eggs is at the door of any Person County fanner interested in this additional source of income. An electric encubator has been in stalled by the Farmers Mutual Exchange in Durham and they will buy eggs for hatching. In other counties in the State, the fact that hatching eggs could be sold at a good price has meant; thousands of dollars to the far mers. We consider this new ven ■ 1 ture a piece of good news to Person County. There are certain specifics-' tiens that have to be met. Right now is the time to find out what! they are so that anyone interest-’ ed may plan for the days ahead.: Some of the farmers in this j PERSON COUNTY TIMES ROXBORO, N. C. county have fine young pullets they may be planning to sell. Perhaps they will find it more profitable to keep them, if they investigate the new market that has opened right over our door. Food and Feed For Defense: A campaign has been under way for weeks urging each farm family to grow sufficient food for each person and sufficient grain and hay for animals and piultry on the farm. There are perhaps several hundred fami lies in Perstm County growing ample home supplies. They have always done this and always will, so far as possible. On the other hand, you will find a family without a cow, without even chickens, and only a handful of vegetables. This year a great ef fort is being made to call the attention of every farm family to the urgent need of growing fresh vegetables for summer use, and, in addition to that, canning and storing everything possible for use next winter. Every article of food necessary for health, witii the possible exception of suger and salt, can be grown or rais ed on Person County farms. Those who have always grown sufficient food have a great op portunity to encourage those who do not make plans for the fu ture. The food for defense program is seeking increases in supplies of pork, dairy products, poultry, eggs and vegetables. Here is a brief summary of the program: Poultry. An increase of at least s i x percent (10,000,000 cases) is needed in egg produc- ( tion. This increase can be obtain-1 ; qd through improved feeding, 5| better care of eggs, and full use f j of poultry equipment. Hatchery ' chicks should be increased 15 * percent. ■ Dairy Products. A six to eight > 000,000 pounds) in milk prodae ■ tion is needed, primarily for use j i in dried (and e\fip(orated milk, J cheese and butter. This can be* } accomplished by better feeding | and by adding to dairy stock. « Pork Products. The average «i weight of hogs should be m -11 creased by 25 pounds. The 1941 !! fall pig crop should be increased | 1 at least 15 percent. 11 Vegetables. An increase of |! from 33 to 50 percent (about 15,- [; 000,000 cases) is sought in can -11 ning tomatoes. Smaller increas -11 es are needed in corn, peas and 1 1 snau beans for canning. Larger 1 1 acreages and increased fertili !; zation of tomatoes should be j stressed. i Plant A Second Garden: * Gardens in this vicinity have jbe e n severaly damaged by j drought. When rain falls there i will be dczens of jobs to be done 'on the farm—everything will need attention at one time—but don’t overlook the source of health:— the garden. Plant ano ther garden just as soon as pos sible. Plant sweet corn, field peas, lima and snap beans, okra, eggplant, squash and cucumber. Set out cabbage, tcmato and sweet potato plants. In setting out tomato plants, you might try. this method of ( * fertilization: Set plants 3 to 4ft. apart. Before setting plants, dig a hole where each plant is to be set, drop in the hole a gallon of well-rotten stable manure, cover with dirt, and set plants. Three weeks later work into the soii around each plant at a distance of 3 inches two tablespoonfuls of 16 percent superphosphate. Fall Garden: Now' is the time to begin think ing about planning for a fall gar den. As soon as the early vege tables have been harvested, clean off and burn dall of the dead plants or vines. Broadcast a lib eral application of stable or chicken manure and acid phos phate, and plow under. Cultivate this area after each rain to keep down grass and weeds, and in order to have the soil in good physical condition for fall plant ing.
