Scanning the Screen

BOY NOT AFRAID OF DRAGON: A whimsical episode from Walt Disney's "The Reluctant Dragon," with a supposed-to-be-terrible monster shrinking from The Boy of the comic feature. The lad has just brought news that the dragon is expected to do battle with Sir Giles, militant threat to all dragons. Robert Benchley is featured in the live action of the elaborate comedy production, which opens Friday at the Gables Theatre.

What the critics say of "She Knew All the Answers," starring Joan Bennett, opening at the Grove Theatre this Sunday: Winchell —"Best romantic comedy of the year"; Fidler—"Real entertainment from beginning to end"; Liberty—"Fine entertainment with plenty of laughs."

LESSON-SERMON ANNOUNCED

Churches of Christ, Scientist "SOUL" is the subject of the Lesson-Sermon which will be read in Churches of Christ, Scientist, throughout the world on Sunday, August 17. The Golden Text is: "Bless the Lord, O my soul; and all that is within me, bless His holy name" (Psalms 103:1). Among the citations which comprise the Lesson-Sermon is the following from the Bible: "Truly, my soul waiteth upon God; from Him cometh my salvation. My soul, wait thou upon God; for my expectation is from Him. In God is my salvation and my glory; the rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God" (Ps. 62:1, 5, 7). The Lesson-Sermon also includes the following passage from the Christian Science textbook, "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy: "Day may decline and shadows fall, but darkness flees when the earth has again turned upon its axis. The sun is not affected by the revolution of the earth. So Science reveals Soul as God, untouched by sin and death—as the central Life and intelligence around which circle harmoniously all things in the systems of Mind" (p. 310:11-17).

The first street in Coral Gables was cut through in March, 1922.

Stocking Up Causing Silk Sales to Soar

Despite frantic appeals to women not to "raid" retail retail stores for silk stockings, due to the freezing of raw silk supplies by the Government, stores and shops in the State's trading centers report sharply increased sales and say women appear determined to put in a supply of "silkies" while they still can. Harriet Elliott, head of the consumers' division of the Office of Price Administration and Civilian Supply, termed women who were buying silk stockings and other items in quantities as conducting "selfish raids," and she urged dealers to limit the supply to a customers as a matter of fair play. Bare legs have become popular and likewise patriotic, and the younger set is showing no alarm but rather welcomes this excuse to display shapely "bare knees" in public as their willingness to sacrifice for the national welfare. Husbands are smiling behind their newspapers and look on the situation as a genuine relief to their pocketbooks, and hope the situation will continue "critical." Cotton farmers are sharpening their hoes and point out that Florida Sea Island cotton makes a mighty good substitute and hope cotton stockings will return to favor for those who feel that limbs must be covered. In the meantime, factories that have been manufacturing silken goods will turn rayon and other substitutes, and it is generally believed that the whole thing will simmer down to "temporary inconvenience." English women long ago solved the problem and an RAF flying cadet in training here tells how thousands of girls in Britain have turned to painted "stockings." Shops, similar to our shine stands, have sprung up throughout London and other cities where a woman may drop in and ahve her legs painter in any shade to suit her fancy at the trifling sum of 3d (three cents) a leg. So expert have the artisans become that it is difficult to distinguish the painted from real stockings. They even paint seams and imitation double or reinforced heels, pointed or square, and these intriguing "stockings" are guaranteed not to "run" or tear. There are no ladders to worry about when your stockings are painted on, and the boy friend can't tell the difference.

Defense Bonds Minute Quiz

Q. Can my children buy Defense Savings Stamps? A. Yes. Hundreds of thousands of American children are buying Stamps regularly as their share in the national savings program. Q. Why should children be encouraged to buy Savings Stamps? A. Because by buying Stamps they write their names on a Roll of Honor of Americans who are doing their part to show the dictators that united America will never flinch to preserve her sacred liberty. Q.

Many parents are registering Bonds in their children's names to prepare for future educational needs.
