How long will it be before the directors realize that the smiling negro mammy with the red bandanna around a fat, kinky head exists today only in the ads of pancake flour? And honestly — college men and women don't dress like the rah-rah boys and girls of the John Held, Jr., illustrations. Perhaps at one time there was an excuse for those things; but with the marvelous possibilities of the talkies today, there is no need for it. Such exaggerated, stereotyped characters. I hope I'm not misunderstood in this criticism; it is merely a suggestion. If I meant that there were no excellent shows with marvelous acting and all other things that go to make an artistic production, one could truthfully call me the proverbial fault-finder. But many good shows are ruined by these exaggerated portrayals. Why not tame them down somewhat or forget them entirely for a while? Thomas Downey very dear to me and every time I see a war picture my mind travels back to that terrible time when so many fine, honest boys lost their lives. I do not go to war pictures when I kno what they are, but I have seen two or threS' within the last few years that I had no idea were along that line. The picture sounded interesting from the name so I went only to find a repetition of what to every mother who lost a son is a nightmare. Is it necessary to bring back all these memories?

Although the war has been over these many years, still my son is very near to me and Wants Some Light on a Dark Subject Evanston, 111. Well, I'm still trying my darndest but. I can't get a little match to light up my whole room at night. They can do it in the movies though. The darling heroine jumps up in the cold night, clad in a half yard of lace, and lights a match to see what time it is, being quite sure it is past midnight. Lo: and behold, the whole room is filled with light. Nell, or perhaps it's Mary, blows out the match to find herself in utter darkness. But she isn't surprised a bit, it's a movie and she knows her movies. Don't get me wrong. I have respect for the beloved screen, but things like that should not be overlooked.
