My brothers and sisters and I had a Gaelic Nanny when we were kids and she used to entertain us by the hour with wonderful stories about the 'little people.' We were brought up on Irish superstitions and I'm sure it kindled an imagination in us that we might not have had. And besides, I'd like my children to grow up with an Irish brogue. I have subscribed regularly to a Dublin newspaper ever since I have been in America, and lately I have been checking over the want ads. I don't think I will have too much trouble finding the kind of girl I want." Maureen's father, Mr. FitzSimons, runs a sporting goods business in Ireland. Her brother, Charlie, is a lawyer in Dublin, and her brother, James, is an actor with the Abbey Theater there. The FitzSimons girls seem to prefer American husbands. Florrie, who is twenty-two, married a Canadian during the war, and expects to arrive in America this month. Margo, who is nineteen, married a Marine in London, and will be on her way soon to join him in China. Both girls expect to visit the Prices. But my favorite of the FitzSimons family has always been the very aristocratic aunt who runs a dress shop in London — and who was firmly convinced that if she touched a sailor's collar she would get her wish. None of this wishing upon a star stuff for Auntie. "And won't it be wonderful," continued Maureen, "to be able to go on a nice weekend trip with your husband and not receive an official 'Report immediately' first thing Saturday morning. After three years of camp following and those 'Report immediately' wires I am a nervous, broken-down old hag." That, of course, was a case of Miss O'Hara lying through her teeth. She looks about as much like a hag as Margaret O'Brien. And they say she is so luscious in RKO's Technicolor adventure yarn, "The Spanish Main," that she will have the men drooling like a pack of wolves. Even the Hays Office boys drooled when they saw . her, and wondered if it was all quite proper. "Either before we go to Ireland, or right afterwards," Maureen continued her planning, "Will and I will take Bronwyn to Mississippi to visit his family. I particularly want Bronwyn to have her picture taken with her great grandfather, who is almost ninety years old. Imagine, four generations of Prices in one picture! "Right away too, as soon as Will comes home, we have to buy a new house. This house was all right when we bought it after we were married — but now that we are acquiring a family it's much too small. Our friends call it the Tip-Toe House. Any time they drop by it seems I am always saying, 'Sh-sh, Bronwyn is sleeping.' 'Sh-sh, Marie has to be up at six to give Bronwyn her bottle and she must have some sleep.' I want a house where our friends can drop by at all hours, bang the refrigerator door, turn on the radio, play the piano, sing, shout, or whatever they feel like doing — and never disturb anyone." Maureen has never been one for night clubs in Hollywood. She likes her social life at home. And she's darned tired of SCREENLAND VERTISEMENT SH AWAY GRAY ...AND LOOK IQ YEARS YOUNGER • Now, at home, you can quickly and easily tint telltale Btreaks of gray to natural-appearing shades — from lightest blonde to darkest black.

The unworthy often have the greatest health, success, riches and happiness. The best, smartest, and most industrious people often have only pain, poverty and sorrow. Why? Thirty years ago, in Forbidden Tibet, behind the highest mountains in the world, a young Englishman found the answers to these questions. His eyes were opened by the strangest mystic he met during his twenty-one years of travels in the Far East. Sick then, he regained health. Poor then, he acquired wealth and world-wide professional honors. He wants to tell the whole world what he learned, and offers to send a 9,000-word treatise, FREE, to everyone who asks promptly. It is a first step to the Power that Knowledge gives. No obligation. Write for your FREE copy today. INSTITUTE of MENTALPHYSICS, Dept.S-676 213 South Hobart Blvd., Los Angeles 4, Calif.
