Thirties, To attract customers the
nlovie theaters gave away merchan-
dise by meats of what were called
"bank uiit;"—and before long
the public was showing so much
interest in the chinaware that it
paid scant attention to what was
being shown on the screen. More
and more the movie houses were
being turned 1010 general stores,
until Ilollywood became so alarmed
that it finally killed those early
"give-aways." If I were a gambling
person I'd be willing to bet the
same thing will happen in radio.
* *
Most folks who attend—or even
read about—the movies have heard
of Louella Parsons, famous Ilolly-
wood columnist and gossip writer,
who makes it her business to tell
her public everything connected
with screen stars the minute it
happens, or even before. Rumors
of impending separations or di-
vorces are especially welcome grist
for Miss Parsons' mill.
So perhaps you'll be interested in
a little tale regarding Louella and
the Frederic Marches, This fine
screen star and his wife—profes-
sionally Florence Eldridge — have
been happily married for more than
twenty years. They were celebrat-
ing their fifteenth anniversary in
New York, with their two children,
when a telegram arrived, It read
"Understand you and Freddie are
splitting up; please confirm" And
it was signed, "Louella Parsons."
As soon as she had read the wire
Mrs. Mardi burst into shrieks of
laughter. \Vhen her children asked
the reason, she explained, "It's only
Louella's annual telegram. She has
probably been going through her
files, come across our card and
found a reminder reading, "Marches
—still married—better investigate
this!"

Jelly Skimmer
When scum is removed from the
top of a batch of jelly, a consider-
able amount of syrup is usually
wasted. A vegetable brush, kept
for this purpose, is much more
effective than a skimmer, Brush

boiling is complete. The scum will
adhere to the brush and is easily
rinsed off under the hot water
faucet,

THIS WEEK we show the auto-
graph oe George Arliss, a brilliant
actor and web ]mown for his vivid
portrayal of the
Duke of Welling-
ton, Disraeli, and
many other not-
able figures,
One would never
guess that the
first part of the
signature is meant
to be George, and
this is revealing
of the showmanship of his person-
ality. The large loop reaching over
to almost touch the letter "A" in
Arliss is an excellent example of
enthusiasm and those who have seen
Mr. Arliss i❑ action will agree that
he acted with enthusiasm and con-
viction. The large up and down
strokes following the loop are
marked signs of generosity, reveal-
ing a nature that gives in good
measure far beyond that which is
expected. The word Arliss is clear
and sharp, a good sign of quick
thinking ability and retentive powers
essential to an actor.
The word George and Arliss are
bound together with a continuous
line, indicative of a constructive
nature.
Showmanship is the dominat fea-
ture as shown by the many decora-
tive strokes over and under the

Aquila and Priscilla
Acts 18:1-3, 18a, 19, 24-26; Romans
16:3-5a; I Cor. 16:19; 2 Tim, 4:19.
Golden Text: Be not forgetful to
entertain strangers,—Hebrews 13:2.
In times like these it is refreshing
to read of a couple who loved each
other and also loved the Lord.
Aquila and Priscilla were Jews, who
had gone to live in Rome. Forced
to flee, they settled in Corinth.
When Paul carate to the city they
graciously received hint into their
house, and practised the art of
Christian hospitality. For a year
and a half Pahl lived with them,
aiding in malting tents, thus sup-
porting himself while he preached
the Gospel.
They travelled with Paul to
Ephesus, remaining there while he
went unto Jerusalem, Apollos came
preaching of John's baptism and
again this man and wife opened
their doors to a servant of God.
They taught hint tite way of God
more perfectly so that he went out
preaching that Jesus is the Christ.
When Paul writes his first letter to
the Corinthians from Ephesus he
sends greetings front Aquila and
Priscilla "with t the t
church that at is

hodie was a meeting place for the
Just For Fun
For the first time in twenty
years Jones spent his vacation at
a mountain resort. The first three
days he just sat around the
hotel; but on the fourth his
wife persuaded him to go for a
hike in the woods.
He was back within an pour,
his face and arras bleeding from
a dozen scratches and abrasions
and his new sports clothes in
rags and tatters. "A big snake
chased nee," he explained, still
terrified.
"But my dear," protested Mrs.
Jones, "none of tite snakes
around here are poisonous."
"So what?" snapped Jones
indignantly. "So long as they
can make me jump off a ftfty-
foot cliff, they dont have to bet"
Christians. Soon after they returned
to leotue and Paul in his letter
refers to them as, "my helpers in
Christ Jesus: who have for my life
laid down their own necks." No
details are given but the sacrificial
manner of their service is indi-
cated. Paul's reference to them in
his last letter suggests that they
had returned to Ephesus.
