THE NEWBERRY SUN, NEWBERRY. S. C Released by Western Newspaper Union. By VIRGINIA VALE G race Matthews, the new “Big Sister” star, began her radio career with a bang; a graduate of the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, in London, she was accustomed to the stage’s broad gestures, and In one expansive sweep she knocked the script from the hands of her fellow actor at the mike. Last year she won three of Canada’s top awards to radio actors; played op posite Sir Cedric Hardwicke. Ralph Bellamy and Charles Boyer, among others. Her first part on an Ameri- GBACE MATTHEWS can program was on a CBS sustain ing show; Ted Huston, the “Big Sister” director, heard a general audition she had then, and ten months later she got her present role. Warner Bros.' "Treasure of the Sierra Madre” may be known as the father-and-son opus. Humphrey Bogart is starred, of course, but Jack Holt and his son Tim, who has a leading role, appear in it. And Walter Huston is featured, and his son John not only wrote the story and directs the picture, but also ap pears in one sequence. May be the start of a Dad-and-Junior cycle; after seeing his son’s debut in “Pur sued,” Henry Carey began writing a screen play of early Nevada days for his offspring. * When Jane (“The Outlaw”) Rus sell did a guest singing appearance on the Kay Kyser show she launched her new career. She’s signed for 13 weeks with him, and several sponsors want her for a half-hour program of her own. She says she’s developed her singing style by listening to Jive recordings —had signed up to do an album of songs for a major recording com- pany. * The largest mob scenes photo graphed since D. W. Griffith made “Intolerance” were made for “Keeper of the Bees” at Columbia’s Sunset studio—where Griffith shot those Babylonian sequences. But the mob John Sturges directed was 60,000 bees! Columbia equipped a complete ship’s galley for “Assigned to Treasury,” fed more than 150 ex tras with food cooked there, and then burned the whole set to the ground for one of the climaxes in the Dick Powell-Signe Hasso star- rer. Anne Baxter, who can act rings around most of the Hollywood ac tresses, certainly deserved that Academy Award for the best sup porting actress. She’ll be in 20th Century - Fox’s “Letter to Five Wifes,” and will probably walk off with the picture. Now that little Marlene Aames ("Cookie Bnmstead” on the CBS “Blondie” show) has appeared in the last two Academy Award pic tures, she hopes she’s started on her third. With "The Lost Week end” and “The Best Tears of Our Lives” on her list, Ray Milland asked for her presence in “The Big Clock,” starring him, Charles Langhton and Maureen O’Sullivan. * Burl Ives has wandered over the country collecting folk songs; now Maylia, Hollywood’s new Chinese actress discovery, is teaching him ftome of her native ditties. Burl’s stealing a march on filmdom’s pro ducers, who don’t know Maylia can sing. * When Jack Barry invited little Robin Morgan to join his “Juvenile Jury" he didn’t know that she is the busiest child model in one of the big model agencies. Candy Jones dis covered her last year and gave her expert training. * ODDS AND ENDS—Tht sponsors #/ "Ladies Be Seated," "Give and Take," imd "Meet the Missus" are consider ing another radio program of the same general type. . . . Jack Temple, broth er of Shirley, was assistant director on the Glenn Ford thriller, "Framed”; he's learning the movie business. . . . John Loder says bis role in "Dishon ored Lady” was one of his oddest; be made love to his wife, Hedy lamarr, then lost her to Dennis O’Keefe. . . . Elliott Reid, handsome young actor re cently free from bis Paramount con tract, has become a regular member of the "Suspense" cast. Woman's World Make, Plan Summer Clothing Before Warm Weather Comes &u £rtta --Jlafc V tJ AVE you ever been caught short with your winter clothing still hugging tight to the closet walls when the sun turned on its warmest rays and sent you scattering to get out your cottons? This has happened to most of us at one time or another, perhaps more frequently than we like to ad mit. When it actually gets too warm it’s really too difficult to start going over the closets and hemming last year’s dresses or even remodeling them, so let’s work a little'' in ad vance of schedule and get some things ready for summer now. The amount of work you actually have to do depends greatly on your >wn wardrobe needs. If you plan to spend a lot of time at the beach or In the garden, then you will want several outfits for these purposes. On the other hand, if you work, you will want several cool, crisp dresses that will let you travel to and from work neatly, as well as keep you looking crisp on the job. All of us, whether we go out a lot or not, like to have several neat dresses for changing into during the evening. It’s the wise woman who makes a shower a part of the daily routine when the weather tends to get her down. Then she changes into something cool as the second part of her morale building routine. Use Utility Fabrics For Outdoor Wear One of the main considerations of clothes for gardening or out-of- doors activity is sturdy fabrics. An other is complete washability, and this means everything from trim mings to buttons. If you plan to do lots of garden ing, then choose pinafores or slacks made of denim, duck, or something as durable. There will be many mornings when you have rough work ahead, and you will want a fabric that will withstand wear. Another important factor to con sider for this type of casual wear is Start your sewing early . .. to have colors that will not show the dirt too readily. For this reason, a rather solid blue—not too dark—is very practical. Choose a color that does not fade too readily as this type of garment will need many tubbings before the season is over. Forget the frills in garments of this type. If you want any trimming at all, then take care of the decora tion by piping with a contrasting colored tape, or putting a little row of feather stitching at the sleeves in a contrasting thread. Another decorative trick for the simple out-of-doors garment is the use of buttons. Since the garment will be laundered frequently, it is best to sew the buttons well but not too tight so they will last with their original stitching. Proper Clothing For Daytime If you are a working woman, you will want to choose fabrics that are comfortable but which hold their shape well inasmuch as many clothes seem to wilt before noon when the weather is excessively hot. In this case, select a material that is lightweight but which has some body and preferably one which is fairly wrinkle-free or crush-resistant. Use the simplest of details for the business dress and avoid elaborate details such as lots of pleats and ruffling, as this makes for a fussi ness that can look anything but coot You will really appreciate the On summer cottons. simpler type dresses If you do your own laundering, because they take less time to wash. Simple, short jackets are very nice on dresses for business wear for they give a charming detail to the dress, and they can easily be slipped off during the middle of the day in the privacy of an office when the weather becomes unendurably warm. Yon will notice that there Is little These new pedal pushers of celanese tropical cloth follow the jumper trend with straps of royal blue and kelly green. Mannish shoulders and collar set the right tailoring note beautifully as a man’s slacks. The one piece gar ment is designed by Margaret Newman. work to making the new styles be cause there are no real sleeve prob lems and other details that are so time-consuming. However, remem ber that styling is important, and fit is absolutely essential if you would look your smartest. When you select dresses for late afternoon or evening wear, you don’t want to overlook the possibili ties of the transparent fabrics. How ever, choose the slip with the same care as you do the outer garment as it is an integral part of the en semble. Make the slip yourself if you are not certain of finding one that looks well underneath the gar ment. Generally you’ll find that the cooler dresses have very loose sleeves, or cap sleeves which are now so popular. Necklines, too, will help you keep cool if they are loose rather than high up and tight. In working with the sheer fabrics, if you find them difficult for sewing, use tissue paper underneath while stitching and then tear this off when you have finished. It is best not to try to make but tonholes for the buttons on very lightweight and sheer materials. If you feel that buttons are essential, sew the buttons on carefully, and then place snap fasteners on the dress for the closings. Do not select too heavy buttons as they tend to pull the dress out of place. Be Smart After their long wartime ban ishment, culottes are on their way back. Slacks, too, are acquiring new fashion touches such as extra long jackets for wear with long trousers or pedal pushers. Belt-Making Tips Use only pre-shrunk material for lining a belt; otherwise it will shrink and make the belt worth less after the garment is washed once. Buckles should be fade-proof and rust-proof. Watch out for metal buckles which will not launder. Unshaped belts should be cut with the grain of the material or they will twist constantly after they are made. Cut belts on the thread of the fabric, either lengthwise or crosswise so you will have a true cut and thus avoid future troub les with twisting belts. Belts for cotton dresses should always have linings to give the belt body and prevent it from being rolled into an uncomfort able rope when worn. *Ute<Jl04M Repj&it&i in WASHINGTON By Walter Shead WNU Correspondent WNU Washington Bureau. 1616 Eye St.. N. W. Anti-Communist Policy Offers Us Sfern Choice The impact of President Truman’s new doctrine of American destiny ... his new policy embracing the principle of freedom as opposed to forces of disruption in the world . . . continues to have a sobering effect upon this nation’s capital as the magnitude, the awesome aspects and the grave import and implica tions of his words are studied and digested. As a matter of fact. President Tru man’s message did not contain or advance any new American doctrine because such statements as Amer ica's interest in the freedom-loving peoples of the world, our support of world democracies, has been advocated and applauded for years, particularly during the war years. What the President’s message did do, however, was to accompany these laudable words with a policy to be translated into action. Those high in government circles are aware of exactly what is en tailed by support of the action. They accept it—Senator Vandenberg, Sen ator Lodge, Senator Morse, Senator Aiken—ail agree that the President’s action and his policy must be sup ported and carried out, a policy which places this nation in the breath-taking position of assuming its rightful place as a world power and the champion of all the down trodden peoples of the earth, start ing with a 400 million doUar loan to Greece and Turkey. This tremendous responsibility, the aftermath of war, strikes at the very security of every man, wom an and child in America. It is, in fact, a new call to arms, for as a result of this new definite American policy these developments are likely to happen, and if we are to follow through on this policy, must happen. Means Risks, Sacrifices The people of the nation in every hometown in the land must be as united, as single of purpose, as we were in fighting a victorious war; the people must be ready to back up and accept compulsory military training; they must be willing to spend not only the 400 million dol lars but in all likelihood, billions of dollars in the next few years; they must be willing to forego some of the luxuries of a hard-earned peace, for sharing dollars means shar ing food and other goods. It may possibly mean a return of some gov ernment controls; it means there likely will be no big tax reduction this year, or maybe next; it means that American ships and American men may be sent to seats of trouble throughout the world; it means a risk of war; it means that we op pose the spread not only of Commu nism, but also of fascism or any other ism which threatens “attempt ed subjugation by armed minorities or by outside pressures”; It means unqualified support of the Four Freedoms and the principles of the charter of the United Nations; it means that for the moment we bypass the United Nations in the matter of furnishing' money, for as yet they have no money and are not set up to function; it means continued full production of agricul ture and industry; it means that a strike in any large industry would again be against the national inter est; it is a must for labor and man agement to get together and settle their differences immediately; it means that government will remain in the market as a large buyer of food and other commodities for ex port relief; it means that prices may remain high; it means a continued bi-partisan approach to all questions relating to this new foreign policy in congress; it means that this new policy, daring in its conception, will go down in history much like the Monroe Doctrine but expanded to world-wide proportions. It very well may mean more sweat and tears without the blood, but it very well may mean blood too. No Middle Ground Left So this tremendous new concept of the responsibility of this nation as a result of this last war must be ei ther accepted wholly or rejected wholly by the American people; there can be no half-way measures. We must either take on the respon sibility fully and with all our power and resources, or we must shut up shop in Europe, in China and else where, close our doors and let Rus sia do what she will with the rest of the world. Those are the alterna tives. There is every reason to believe that insofar as this nation can, with out running smack into the Russian veto power, our action will go through the United Nations and that the Security Council will be advised in advance of every move made in carrying out our announced policy. And that’s as It should be, for it scotches the criticism that the Pres ident’s policy abandons the United Nations when, to the contrary, he de clared his action was in the spirit of the U. N. and he upheld it as the hope of the human race ... perhaps the only hope. Dress Up Leftovers Skillfully! (See Recipes Below) Leftover Check-Up There are some leftovers we view with disdain, but there are others we welcome heartily. For example, I’m never sad when we have left over ham, lamb or chicken. Clever tricks can be applied to leftover po tatoes as well as vegetables; and there’s a dozen different appealing ways to work leftover cake and pud dings into toothsome desserts for second day use. If your family does not really en joy leftover food your job is to change the original dish to such an extent they will really think it’s a fresh, new idea. A little work, per haps, but the results are gratifying. Garnish leftover platters carefully so that when they make their first appearance they will be a hit be- fore they are even tasted. In this way the problem will be half settled be fore the family even begins to taste.

LUNDQUIST, D. D. Ot The Moody Bible Institute of Chlcaeo. Released by Western Newspaper Union. Lesson for April 20 Lesson subjects and Scripture texts se lected and copyrighted by International Council of Religious Education; used by permission. THE KINGDOM STRENGTHENED AND ENLARGED LESSON TEXT—n Samuel 5:8-10.17-25. MEMORY SELECTION—David waxed greeter and greater; for the Lord, the Goti of hosts, was with him.—n Samuel 5:10. David was the great king of Is rael. His life and reign are of un usual interest and the Bible gives much information about him. In the rapid survey of Israel’s history which we are making in our lesson series, we have just this one lesson on David's reign and that is con cerned more with the nation than with its king. This unique man was by God’s choice placed over Israel. At first he received only the allegiance of the southern division of the king dom, Judah (see II Sam. 2:4). But by showing himself friendly (Prcrv. 18:24) he won (4i* hearts of the people of the north, Israel, and they too recognized him as king (II Sam. 5:1-5). Thus united, the kingdom was ready to move forward, by the blessing of God—and that is the story before us in our lesson. I. The Lord Was with Them (w. 6-10). A united people I How Important that Is In the affairs of the nations. Nothing is more disturbing or a greater hindrance than internal friction. We ought to deal quickly and decisively with any group or force in the life of our nation which is >clearly divisive or disloyaL Think, then, how important it Is that God’s people In the Christian church stand together in undivided loyalty to Christ, our King, and in loving devotion to one another. Jerusalem, which was to be the “city of David,” and which figures so prominently not only in history but in prophecy, had to be wrested from the hands of the heathen Jebusites, and be established as the sacred city and the capital of the Jewish nation. Note that the kind and consider ate king was not a weakling. He knew how to fight and to win. Verse 8 is difficult to Interpret, but evi dently does not mean that David was cruel. The Jebusites taunted him by saying that their blind and cripples could hold the wall against David’s men. Then they doubtless put their best soldiers on the wall, and David said to his men, "Let us take these cripples.” We see In verses 9 and 10 that David was not only a fighter, but also a builder. He began then the development of Jerusalem, the great city of which we are yet to hear wondrous things. H. The Lord Delivered Them (w. 17-21). The Philistines, Israel’s constant enemy, had control of much of the land west of the Jordan. As soon as they heard that the people were now united under a young aggressive king they laid plans to destroy his power almost before he could start. The Philistines were clever, but they reckoned without God. David was smart; he counted God into his plans. He asked the Lord what to do and the answer was, “Go up. I will certainly deliver the Philistines Into thy hand,” and he did! We may well learn the lesson that prayer, consultation with God, must come before any successful cam paign for him. Inquire of him to be assured of victory. Note also here that there are battles in which the Lord expects us to go up boldly right into the face of a mighty enemy, and take the vic tory by faith! Sometimes we are afraid to meet the enemies of the cross with bold ness, choosing rather to compro mise for the sake of peace. It never works. That Is the way of defeat III. The Lord Went Before Them (w. 22-25). Defeated once so decisively that they had to run away from their sacred images (v. 21), the enemy rallied for another attack. It Is ever thus—and foolish Is the Christian who thinks that one vic tory wins a war. After spiritual victory Satan redoubles his efforts and strikes while the believer is resting on his laurels—if he is fool ish enough to do it Here again we say, be on guard! Observe that the Lord worked dif ferently this time. David inquired again, but this time the word was, “Thou shall not go up.” Israel was to come up from the rear of the Philistines, and not to attack until the wind in the treetops told that God had gone before to smite the enemy. There is a time for straight out frontal attack on the enemy. There is also a time when God wants us to stand back and watch him work out our deliverance. Sometimes that Is harder to do than to attack, but we must obey his word. How shall we know which to do? By asking God. Prayer must al ways precede action—and then ac tion will be right!
