If you want to know why clothing
donluts are having such u slack sen-
son ask Charles Ra. Tho nonulur
screen star whose Intest First Nat-
ional uttraction "Gas Oil and
Water" Is the feature at tho National
Theatre displays a suit of clothes In
the picture that ho says had to be
four veins old to fit the pait. The
star appears as a government seciet
service agent who disguises himself
aH a garage keeper to ptosecute the
alms or Justice. In order to do his
part appropriately ho had to dig up
tho oldest suit of clothes he could
find and ho appeared on the f-tudlo
lot with a suit that he swore ho had
purchased during the early war days.
Accoidlng to other mcmbeis of the
cast they looked old enough to Iuim1
been on the Ark with Noah. Kay
became an object of good untuted
humor from his fellow artists; but
thoy concurred In their opinion that
