THE NEWBERRY SUN, NEWBERRY. S. C. By VIRGINIA VALE ■cleared by Weatern Newapaper Union. F ibber McGee is plenty sore these days — in the muscles, not the temper. Here’s the reason. The RKO picture, “Heavenly Days,” which he and Molly are making, in cludes .a dream fantasy in which Fibber, as a typical American citi zen, enters the U. S. senate chamber and swims around 15 feet above the floor. It’s done with invisible piano wires—which accounts for the sore muscles. —*— Now that K. T. Stevens has achieved screen stature with her dramatic lead in the William Cam eron Menzies production, “Address Unknown,” at Columbia, she can claim the distinction of being the K. T. STEVENS only Hollywood star who still lives in the house where she was bom. K. T. is the daughter of producer- director Sam Wood, and still lives with her parents in the family manse in Hollywood. —*— One night recently 70 soldiers were having fun in a New York night club. One thought he recognized a big, buxom blonde in the audience. “Miss Tucker,” he said, “the boys would sure get a thrill if you’d sing ‘Some of These Days’ for them. We’re on our last furlough, heading overseas.” She sang, she wrote “Sophie Tucker” on menus for them. Didn’t want to disappoint the boys by explaining that she’s Lulu Bates, practically a double for Miss Tuck er, a well-known blues singer who’s starring now on NBC’s “All Time Hit Parade.” X Barry Wood, singer and master of ceremonies on “The Million Dollar Band,” doesn’t have too much time for his farm these days. He’s been entertaining wounded servicemen at the Halloran and St. Albans hospi tals, near New York. Incidentally, that’s a fine idea Barry has—that of giving war sav ings stamps as tips. It is one that is being widely copied in radio circles. —X— Something new has been added to Webster’s dictionary; the new edi tion will include the word “puty pe toon,” according to word recently received by Paramount. If you’re a movie-goer you know it well; it’s derived from “puppet” and “car toon,” and is the registered trade mark of those short subjects pro duced by George Pal. “And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street,” picturization of the novel of the same name, is the latest in the series of Technicolor Puppetoons produced by Pal for Paramount. —*— Helen Mack, who’s appearing in “And Now Tomorrow” with Loretta Young and Alan Ladd, has been nicknamed “Droopy Helen” by her friends because she plays so many emotional roles. She began training for roles like that back in the days when she studied acting in a New York children’s theater school, where she had some classmates des tined to be well known—Helen Chan dler, Ruby Keeler and Gene Ray mond among them. * The movies’ own Margaret Sulla- ran, returning to the New York stage to star with Elliot Nugent in the highly successful “The Voice of the Turtle,” juggles three differ ent careers expertly—the stage, the screen, and hardest of all, that of a good wife and mother ... It was thrilling to sit in the audience one night recently and find that, when people murmured “Isn’t it wonderful that he’s here?” and stood up to stare, it was Lieutenant Commander Robert Montgomery whom they meant. A huskier look ing Robert Montgomery than in his picture-making days, looking very handsome in uniform. * ODDS AND ENDS—Wallace Beery"* brother Noah is slated for a role in Watty’s new picture, “Gold Town" . . .

Thrifty Meats Food budgets require the hands of experts these days so they don’t run away with themselves. Scan the columns of your news papers and the prices at your butch ers and you’ll notice many economi cal cuts of meat that are just packed full of flavor if you cook them prop erly. It’s not at all strange to find favorite foods in your family that are very inexpen sive to prepare. But all of them illustrate one im portant fact: the cook who pre pares the food knows what she’s working with and what to do with it to have it at its best. Make sure that all of your platters look attractive before you set them on the table. We still eat with our eyes first—and what’s good to look at will disappear fasti Save Used Fats! Did you ever think of spreading chuck steak with grapefruit butter? No? You’ll find it tenderizes the meat and gives it delightful flavor: •Broiled Chuck Steak. Preheat broiling oven 5 to 10 min utes. Grease broiler rack. Wipe meat with cloth, sprinkle both sides with salt and pepper and spread with grapefruit butter, made by blending grapefruit juice and but ter in equal proportions. Place on rack and broil 2 to 3 inches below heat. Sear steak on both sides with high heat, reduce and continue cooking, turning occasionally. For a rare steak inches thick, allow 12 to 15 minutes per pound. In crease time for medium and well- done steaks. 1 Save Used Fats! Pork is low in price and fairly low in point value. It’s a go-together with dressing made with apples: Pork Chops With Apple Stuffing. (Serves 6) 6 thick pork chops 1 slice salt pork, diced M cup bread crumbs 2 teaspoons finely chopped parsley S tart apples, diced Vi cup chopped celery Vi cup chopped onion Vi cup sugar Salt and pepper Have pork chops cut 1 to 2 inches thick with a pocket cut from the in side. Fry diced salt pork until crisp, add celery and onions and cook until tender. Add the diced apples and sprinkle with sugar, cover and cook slowly until they are tender and glazed in ap pearance. Add bread crumbs and season. Stuff pork chops with stuff- Lynn Says The Score Card: Butter your bread carefully. Most households will average about 11 pounds per person per year—much less than what we’re accustomed to. Don’t feed your garbage pail the vitamin C from citrus fruits in the form of peel. There are about three times as much of the vitamin in the peel as in pulp and juice. Peeling may be used in sauces, spreads, fruits, mar malade or candy. Another vitamin C story tells us that when vegetables are de hydrated in the presence of nat ural gas rather than air, they have 100 per cent vitamin C re tension. Dehydrated carrots, onions and sweet potatoes will probably be tasted before this year is out. Have plenty of ham 'n eggs these days. Both pork and egg supplies are good.

IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL UNDAYI chool Lesson s By HAROLD L. LUNDQUIST. D. D. Of The Moody Bible Institute of Chicago^ Released by Western Newspaper Union. - Lesson for March 26 Lesson subjects and Scripture texts se lected and copyrighted by International Council of Religious Education; used by permission. THE SACREDNESS OF LIFE (TEMPERANCE LESSON) LESSON TEXT: Gen. 1:27, 28: Matt 12: 11. 12; Rom. 14:19-21; I Cor. 8:19. 20. GOLDEN TEXT: Know ye not that your body Is the temple of the Holy Spirit?—I Corinthians 6:19. A high and ennobling concept of the value of human life is an impor tant element in Christian thought. The Word of God always regards human life as sacred—a gift of God to be used for His glory, never to be exploited for gain or destroyed at will. This important truth needs con stant reiteration in a social order which is so shortsighted and sinful that it will permit the destruction of man through the sale and use of alco holic beverages. The lesson has a real application to the liquor prob lem. I. God Honored Man (Gen. 1:27, 28). It should be of primary Interest and concern to discover what the Maker and Lord thinks of His crea tion, man. He knows what is in man and if we learn of Him we may come to evaluate man aright. 1. He Made Him in His Own Image (v. 27), The teaching of Scripture makes it clear that this image was not anything material or physical, but rather a likeness of personality. As God is a personal, moral, intelligent Being, so is man. How tragic then that man will not only reject that grace, but will sub ject his God-given personality to the narcotic and destructive influence of alcohol. Not only did God make man in His image, but— 2. He Gave Him Power and Authority (v. 28). This is the very thing man is seek ing, and here we learn that the only One who had a right to give it—God Himself—bestowed it upon man. Having dominion over the entire earth, man is in a place of responsi bility, not only for his own moral choices, but for the welfare of oth ers. Think that over as ft relates to the ever-growing liquor problem. n. Man Should Honor Man (Matt. 12:11, 12; Rom. 14:19-21). Since God has such a high re gard for man, it is clear that we ought tc have real respect for our fellow man. "Man’s inhumanity to man” is often declared to be the world’s greatest difficulty. It would not be so if God’s Word were obeyed. Man would learn that— 1. He Should Recognize His Fellow Man’s Value (Matt. 12:11, 12). Property values are so well to the front in the thinking of all, that it requires no argument to convince anyone that a sheep that has fallen into a pit should be rescued. But the sad thing is that the man who would run for help to rescue a sheep in that predicament will hardly cast an interested glance at the drunk in the gutter, or lose a few minutes sleep over the girls who are going to hell by way of our countless tav erns. The plain fact is that we do not regard a man as of more value than a sheep. Many a neighbor hood has been stirred to angry re prisal over the poisoning of a pet dog, but will let the liquor dealer poison men and women—all for a small license fee. The man who loves his fellow man knows that— 2. He Should Sacrifice for His Fel low Man’s Good (Rom. 14:19-21). Paul here states a high principle of Christian consideration. He makes clear that man is his broth er’s keeper and must do nothing which will tempt his brother to do that which will harm him. III. Man Should Honor Himself (I Cor. 6:19, 20). Man is told not to think more highly of himself than he ought to think (Rom. 12:3), and that is good counsel. But at the same time he ought to think as highly of his own being as God does. He should rec ognize that— 1. His Body Is the Temple of the Holy Spirit (v. 19). The Bible teaches that the mo ment a man believes in Christ his body becomes the dwelling place of the Holy Spirit. That means that he must never take that body in any place (such as 3 tavern) to do any thing or partake of anything (like intoxicants) which would dishonor the Holy Spirit of God. - 2. He Belongs to God (▼. 20). Men have been given a free will by God. He has given them the right of self-determination. That does not abrogate God’s right to man’s devotion and love. The fact that we are free to choose should make us the more deter mined that the right choice should be made—that we shall glorify God in our bodies, which are His. Does it take even a moment’s thought to tell us that the violation of that body (and every bit of scien tific evidence proves it to be a viola tion) by the use of alcohol is not only disobedient, but sinful rebellion against God.
