Insure your minimum requirements of these two important Vitamins, by taking a ONE-A-DAY Vitamin A and D Tablet every day. / Economical—50c - or less - per month. Convenient—you take only one tablet a day. Pleasant—children actually like the taste — and so will you. IMPORTANT—when buying Vita mins, compare potencies and prices.

Released this week, Decca reports more than five thousand sold the first day! Expected totals on this new record will number more than 300,000 in the next month. These figures are slightly sensational when you remember that "Don't Cry Baby" has sold hundreds of thousands of records by other re cording artists — before Millinder had a chance to wax it. P.S. Millinder and Carol, the new combination to watch, will play a two week engagement at the famous Savoy Ballroom in Harlem next month.

Lynn Bari has just completed her dramatic chore in Thornton Wilder's story of "The Bridge of San Luis Rey." One of the plum roles of the year, prducer Bogeaus selected Miss Bari not only be cause of her ability to project the depth and warmth of a woman whose beauty and allure ruled the destiny of men, but more so be cause physically Miss Bari packs that emotional wallop so necessary to make the character of the Per- i ichole believable. "The Bridge of San Luis Rey,” emerged as a Pulitzer Prize winn ing novel the year it was nubl'sh ed. From the start, Hollywood considered if the perfect story for the screen because of its plot struc ture, compelling theme and delin eation of character.
