THAT STIRRING SEA SAGA
Fresh from the excitement of seeing "Mutiny on the Bounty" I am tempted to pronounce it the greatest picture I've ever seen. The acting of Clark Gable, Charles Laughton, and Franchot Tone was perfect. This is one picture I'll never forget.

VIVAS FOR VINSON
Few actresses prove their screen personality as does Helen Vinson. After all the catty roles she has played we still enjoy seeing her, and never stop hoping to see Helen in a sympathetic part.

BRAVO FOR TIBBETT
When I saw "Metropolitan" the audience applauded each of Lawrence Tibbett's selections as though he were there in the flesh. And when the picture ended the applause kept on for several minutes. That's a pretty fine tribute to a man who once was considered a "flop" in films.

WHAT! NO LEO IN CELON?
For more than six months we in Celon have not been able to see an M-G-M picture. Now what's the use of going to the movies if you can't see Joan Crawford, Gable, Montgomery and other Metro stars ? I'm sure if this letter is printed in Screenland some M-G-M biggie will do something about this situation.

NICE PEOPLE, THE TONES
It may interest his fans to know that in the Cornell Alumni Directory young Mr. Tone is listed as Stanislas Pascal Franchot Tone. On a recent New York week-end my lucky star let me encounter Mr. Tone and Miss Crawford emerging from the Columbia Broadcasting offices. Nice people, lovely to look at.

SONG AND DANCE FOR GINGER
From the top of her head to the tip of her toes she's wonderful — I mean Ginger "Snappy" Rogers, of course. Seems to me she has paved the way for other beautiful gals who are dancing their way to success. Eleanor June,

SEE THE PRETTY CEILING!
One thing that English pictures have that ours lack is ceilings ! You rarely see the ceilings of rooms in our Hollywood pictures, while nearly every English production shows them. To me it adds realism.

SARTORIAL NOTE ON BING
Crosby being Bing, I can bear a lot of his clothing monstrosities, but when he wears plaid caps, I can't take it. It is only when he sings that I can forget Bing's clothes.

A three-minute date with Ivory Flakes will make your undies and sheer stockings wear longer! You see, if perspiration is allowed to linger, it attacks fine fabrics.
But if you think daily washings mean washed-out colors you've been using a toostrong soap! Change to pure Ivory Flakesmade from the same pure Ivory Soap that doctors advise for babies' tender skins.
Here's good advice from Van Raalte, makers of the famous Singlettes, "We heartily recommend frequent washings in cool Ivory Flakes suds for our lingerie, silk stockings and washable gloves because Ivory is pure— keeps colors and textures like new through many washings!"
