MOVIES TO FEATURE
ILLICIT LOVE DRAMA
Retviuse evory new ucceB starts
a 'Hollywood "gold runh ' of Imita
tlona, we may expect next season
the ritratiKe combination of fllme
fetiturlng Illicit love and films fea
turing children' comedies, predicts
Robert R, Kherwood, pioneer critic.
Tracinjc the history of previous
fads, he tells what to expect next
flcnson. ifl McCall's for .July:
"It 4s the 'fixed and Immovable
rule in the movie business that the
untcjuo fluccess of one season will
become the monotonous repetitions
of the next. , Whenever some ran
dorr, prospector in Hoiiywood digs
up a 'theme' that finds favor with
the public, the entire industry in
dultffts in a frantic, helter-skelter
gold rutin. Thus, Thedu Bara's first
triumph, A Fool There Was, pro
moted an avalanche of vamptre
dramas. The Covered Wagon was
followed by innumerable epica of
the old west. After What Price
0 lory? and The Big Parade every
studio was Jammed with carousing
doughboys and acquiescent madem
oiselles from Armentlerea, In the
wako of Flaming Youth came
countless orgies of nabbed haitr.

Tho Doorway to Hell and Little
Caesar, Hollywood nnd its patrons
have been suffering from a con
gestion of gangNtors. Tho Finger

been concerned with the activities
of Chicago's most celebrated indus
try and nt the moment of writing,
there are many more to come, in
cluding one called Put On The Spot
and another bearing the brief but
revolatory title, Scarface.
"Next season we may look for
ward to a superabundance of films
of two distinct types: tales of Illicit
love and Its bitter consequences, an
Imitation of The Easiest Wfy,
Strangers May Kiss and Millie; and
a v.aitt number of sentimental com
edies about children, -designed to
cash In on the prestige attained by
Tom Sawyer and Sklppy. '
"Sex-stuff and kid-atuff as
these two styles of entertainment
are technically known - will pre
vail on all programs in 1931. Sure
ly a strange combination, but not
astonishing to those who are ac
customed to the fantastic trend
of policy In Hollywood. Some years
ago the industry decided to spe
cialize in pictures dealing with big
spiritual themes like The Ten
Commandments, and with hot ro
mances of the burning sands, like
The Sheik,
'"Usually, the Imitations of a con-
Aplcuous success prove nothing ex

may hope that this will not be the
case with the children's pictures
that are about to be delivered to us
in bales, but we may also bo par
doned for skepticism. Sklppy, the

be based, 1s phenomenal. . It Is one
of those rare accidents In the Holly

TEN RULES TO GIVE
YOUR EKES BEAUTY
Seauty specialists have worked
out a series of ten rules for the
care of the eyes. They are guar
anteed to keep any woman's eyes
beautiful. These rules, published In
the Woman's Home Companion,
are!
First of all, keep your eyes wide
open. Hlg eyes are young and hard
to reslRt.
A good massage movement to
keep eyes from dwindling nnd re
ceding Is upward with the flnta
of the hands over the eyes nnd
eyebrows nnd forehead. '
Wink this Is your eyes' beat ex
ercise. ,i
Squint lines obviously come from
squinting.
Uo not avoid eyeglasses If you
want to avcld crow's-feet, red veins,
bloodshot eyes nnd dark circles.
Try not to expose your eyes to
bright lights, wind and dust, poor
light or Intensive reading.
Hatha your eyes dally with eye
lotion nnd eye cup or dropper.
Kest your eyes by changing focus
or closing them briefly.
Me down and use cold com
presses on the eyes when they aro
inrinmed or overtired.
Increase the apparent slw of your
eyes by discreet use of shadow on
upper lid.

' The common lrla can be planted
aim oh t, any time when not In bloom,
but with besteuccess after the Juno
blooming season and until late fall.
July nnd August planting Is espec
ially recommended, ns roots plant
ed then have more time to send
down new feeding roots from the
tuberous piece called the rhizon.e,
so that the plant Is more firmly
held against, winter heaving.
Chanco for bloom the next year is
also much better.
The beorded or common iris Is
quite hardy 1f planted In a well
drained location, and ordinarily the
rhlvome Is set horizontally, with it
top barely exposed to the air. If
planted after mid-September, ome
gardeners have bettor nuccess if
the rhizome is covered with an Inch
of dirt as a protection against heav
ing. But if set In late fall in the
usual way, a light covering of some
coarse hay or . cornstalks put on
about December first is advisable
the first winter only. Use no man
ure. On account of its adaptability to
nlmost any soil, Its hardiness and
Its freedom and beauty of bloom
nnd the wonderful range of colors,
the Iris should be an important fea
ture In every garden. . j

Tim and Rusty
By Maude Pool
It was a bright moon-light nlpht.
Not a cloud was In sinht. and every
thing was ns still as could be. If
Tim had beet' asleep, like every
body supposed ho was, he would
have known nothing 'about tho
friendly old moon looking through
the window at him, but instead he
was wide awake. Ills eyes were
bright and blue ns he watched the
moon-shnddown about the room. He
lay on a cushion on tho davenport,
nnd ho was thinking.
Maybe you thought a little kit
ten wouldn't think very much, but
Tim certainly was thinking of many
things. He didn't like his new homo
very well. Yes, Kmmnlyne was
kind to him, but sometimes t.yp. the
dog, chased him, and John. Em
mntyne's brother, threw water on
him, nnd that wasn't a bit nice.
Three long, long weeks it had
been alnc that fateful day when he
and Rusty had followed their
mother into the forest. Myl What
a long time! Ho remembered how
they had been nearly starved, nnd
how they had ventured to Km
mnlyne's homo for food. Then Sue
had pome and found them, and had
taken Rusty back to his home. But
poor Tim! Mo was left nt the
strange farm because the little mis
tress had wanted a wee kitten all
her own. But Just the ame, Tim
knew that some day he would steal
away and find bis way back to
IttMty and Mother rat and hla little
friend, Imb, the dog.
It was nil tnrw things that Tim
was thinking about. Do you sup
pose that the fairies whimpered to
htm that It would b thL-JiUht that

to twelvo inches high and are use

ially suitable, for rock gardens.
1 An intermediate class has been
produced by crossing? the dwarf

iThe resultant plants are somewhat
taller than the dwarfs, following

Regular tall varieties ,come Into

tail, have grassy foliage and bloom
.very freely In. various shades of
blue and purple and also In creamy
white. The several beardless species
have a regular root more like that
of coarse grasses, nnd so must be
set deeper than the bearded type,
and the soil must be packed tight
ly about the roots. It is also ex
tremely important to keep them
well watered the first season plant
ed. TheyJdo not require so com
plete drainage- as tho bearded
species and so can be used in low
places whore the bearded Iris would
hot thrive. They look more natural
at the edge of a pool than the com
mon iris and nro very graceful and
slntoly. nnd are well worth growing.
what kept him ao wloo awake?
Any way, after a while there
came a strange sound at the open
window. s Ttm looked and he saw a
small dark object above the window
sill. What could it be? He was
frightened at first, nnd then he
know! It wn.i Uot!
"Dear old Boh.", Tim whispered
exeltedly. "V-y did you come
here?"
"Kusty said you were here and
that you were not happy;" Bob re
plied. "Come with me nnd I will
take you home."
Thun after all. Ttm had not lain
awake for nothing. He left his soft.
bed and wtrtiy and sneniiy ne
leaped to the low window sill, and
away they crept,, quietly, toward
tho deep forest and home. Mr.
Moon smiled ' to himself as he
watched themtho little black dog
rind th little kitten, traveling side
by side,, saying nothing. What mys
teries Mr. Moon could solve, if he
only chose tn talk!
? Tim -did not have any Idea In
what direction he was traveling.
He only knew that ho was pass
ing through the shadows of the
forest, and that he could trust Bob.
It was a long, long time that they
(ravIetf. V'U they reached
homo as the fading moonlight gave
way to the first pink glimmer of
dawn tn the eastern sky. Bob took
Tim straight to the hack porch, and
there they found Busty and Mike

do not let that

"Sour Cream Cookies" were always

To neutralise the acid in one cup
of sour milk use one-half teaspoon
of eoda. If there should be no
sour milk available when you need
It, an addition of one-tablespoon of
lemon Juice or vinegar to a cup of
sweet milk will make a very satis
factory substitute. Again, use ono
half teaspoon of soda for each cup
of this sour milk.
