Bull Blocked Colonization
A bull, which the early Norse- 1
men brought to America with
them, wrecked their attempt to !
colonize Vinland (believed by
many historians to be Rhode Is- i
land). The animal frightened the
natives and made them so hostile
that the Norsemen had to pack up
and go home. America wasn’t re-
discovered for 500 years.

That is the best government
which desires to make the people

them happy.—Macaulay.

CONFESSION
STUCK WITH IT
PESSIMIST
Nephew—A man ought to know
himself.
Aunt—And yet he ought to be par-
ticular about the company he keeps.
For five or six days he had been
digging in the garden for an air-
raid shelter. What with the rain and
the clay he was not in the best of
tempers. Suddenly an old friend
looked over the wall.
“Digging your shelter?” asked the
friend.
"No," returned the digger, "as a
matter of fact I bought a swing for
the children and ‘he ropes are too
long."
“Would you prefer taking in the
ball game or the movies?”
“The movies. I’m sure of a nappy
ending there."

GREER GARSON claims that
Loretta Toomey is the good
luck stand-in of Hollywood. Miss
Toomey was stand-in for Sonja
Henie, Ellen Drew and Joan
Davis before going to Metro U>
be stand-in for Hedy Lamarr
and Ruth Hussey. All of them
did all right, you’ll remember.
Three years ago she became Miss
Garson's stand-in—and how that
young woman has forged ahead!
Now Miss Garson has lent her for
a second time (the first was when
Theresa Wright got her for some
scenes in “Mrs. Miniver”) to Susan
Peters, for scenes when Miss Gar-
son doesn’t need her in “Random
Harvest”; they’re rivals for Ronald
Colman’s affections, in the picture,
but never meet.
----Hi----
Incidentally, some exhibitors
thought so highly of "Mrs. Miniver"
that they advocated showing it at
advanced prices. But the sugges-
tion was turned down, on the theory
that this swell picture really belongs
to the people, and that the greatest
number should see it in the short-
est possible time. Nicholas M.
Schenck, president of Loew's, Inc.,
Metro distributors, is responsible.

Jean Hersholt, the kindly “Dr.
Christian” of the CBS Wednesday
night series, has completed the first
of his two albums of children's tales
JEAN HERSHOLT
recordings. This is the first step
in a plan that he has had for many
years, to bring worthy translations
of Hans Christian Anderson’s Danish
fairy tales to the American public.

Barbara Moffett. 18 year old
equestrienne, breaks into pictures
playing the feminine lead opposite
Tim Holt in RKO's “Red River Rob-
in Hood." She was discovered while
doing trick riding, roping and shoot-
ing as the star of a rodeo troupe.
So this won't be the ordinary West-
ern, since the heroine will be given
a chance to do her stuff, instead of
just looking pretty.

Joe Pasternak, who produced De-
anna Durbin’s films for so long, has
discovered a new singing star, Mary
Croft. He gave her a role in his
first Metro picture. “Tulip Time,"
then sent her to New York for a
year’s study before making more
pictures. So when you see the pic-
ture, look for her—you may have
the satisfaction of seeing a future
star's first performance.

Warner Brothers bought screen
rights to "The Miracle,” the reli-
gious spectacle play, some years
ago as a vehicle for Bette Davis.
After several script writers had
tried their hands at adapting it it
was shelved. Now we hear that it
may be screened.

Vox Pop begins its third year of
programs from military, naval and
armament establishments along
with its eighth of network broad-
casting. It was the first radio pro-
gram to adapt and contribute its
facilities to national defense, the
first to present the voices of selectees
in training, the first and only one to
undertake a Good-Neighbor Latin
America tour.
--*--
Randolph Scott, Glenn Ford, Ev-
elyn Keyes and other members of
the cast got a real western recep-
tion when they arrived in Utah for
“Desperadoes.” Local cowhands
held up the train and “kidnaped”
the stars. Miss Keyes is the first
Hollywood actress to make a hobby
of collecting military insignia rep-
resenting armed forces of all the
United Nations—has more than 300
insignia buttons.

Young Suitor Felt Sure
The Idea JFas Correct
The young man had for some
months been calling on Helen.
Then at last he came to see her
fatjier. Without a tremor he asked
for the daughter's hand in mar-
riage, and hardly waiting for a
reply, added this announcement:
“It’s a mere formality, I know,
but we thought it would be pleasing
to you if it were observed in the
usual way.”
Helen's father stiffened and
glowered, then:
"And may I inquire," he asked,
“who suggested to you that asking
my consent to my daughter's mar-
riage was a mere formality?”
“Yes," replied the young man.
"It was Helen's mother."

ance against such annoying symp-
toms. Follow label directions. Well
