ER WHY FLYIN® ALL N SYNOPSIS: Jason Divitt, sensing mystery in Juanita Bas- arw’s past, helds her prisoner in his gambling parlors as a veil- «d cigarette girl. His wife, Mol- Iy, is friendly, as also are Con- chita and her dwarf son, Ga- brcau, who defends her against Umberto's advances. But ter- rer grips the girl when she vees Senor Basara of Mexico City, in a party with Mrs. Be- laise, her grandson, Kirk Stan- ard, Adrian Fouche and Eric Ledbetter. Ledbetter vainly at- tempts to remove her disgu Befcre Mrs. Belaise leaves, Div- itt gets her necklace. Then next day he sends Juanita, posing as Scnerita Ysabel Flores, to return it. Umberto drives her in a car to the Belaise home, where Kirk has remained, help- ing to console his grandmother over the Toss of the jewelry.

Overcome This Variation by Their Patented Process—Controlled Roasting There is no way to know when a big batch of coffee is geerfec\ly roasted. One batch may “high,” another “low,” with the result that there is variation of flavor. Hills Bros. overcome this uncer- | tainty, with their radically differ- ent and exclusive process — Con- trolled Roasting. As the accuracy of the hour-glass depends upon an even, continuous flow . . . a little at a time . . . so the uniform flavor of Hills Bros, Coffee is produced by this patented process that roasts evenly, continuously . . . a little at a time. Positive control of heat de- velops every berry to perfection — to the degree that insures a rich, full-bodied, unvarying flavor in every pound. No other coffee tastes like Hills Bros. Coffee because no other coffee is roasted the same way. Controlled Roasting is Hills Bros.’ own process. v ELUNNY “N ITTLE F:I_Ai‘i?)
