City Attorney Grov C. Winn announced at last night's Council | session that such an amendment had been suggested. At present the Council divides the tax levy into two portions, one for schools and one for general municipal purposes. The tax levy, under law, cannot amount to more than 20 mills. Hearings Next Week Tax assesment equalization hear- ings will be held Monday, Tuesday. Wednesday and Thursday evenings from 8 to 10 o'clock. Taxpayers will have an oppertunity at those times to protest assessed valuation of their property. The entire Council and Assessor Herb Redman will be pres- ent at the hearings. Two matters were referred last night to the Street Committee. The Fosbee Development Company, through Haorld Foss, asked the City to improve A Street from Dis- tin Avenue to West Eighth Street so as to give the end of Distin Avenue an outlet and do away with the traffic problem which results from its being a 'blind street. Charles ‘Waynor asked construction of a sidewalk along the Glacier High- way, from Twelfth Street to the city limits. The improvement would cost $1,500, City Engineer Milton Lag- ergren estimated. Taxi Diffieulties Chief of Police Dan Ralston was instructed by the Council to enforce a municipal ordinance requiring ev- ery taxicab operating in Juneau to post a $1,000 liability bond. This ap- plies to cabs having headquarters in Douglas if they solicit business or. pick up passengers in Juneau, the City Attorney said. It also ap- plies to Driv-Ur-Self cars rented here, he stated. e T O BISHOP RETURNS John Bishop, of B.

HOLLYWOOD, Cal., Aug. 5.—It is an admirable thing to grow old gracefully: And in Hollywood it is a rare thing too Today I saw an actress who, I believe, has learned the secret. Five years a star, she might easily feel that the best years of her life are behind her. She is now, as movie ages go, approaching a period of uncertainty. There is an “in-between age” which haras- ses all players of her sex — no longer young enough for the roles she has been playing, not old enough for grandmotherly assign- ments. Just in-between. Has it worried her, floored her spirits? Not a bit of it. is going along (she still has a contract with some few years to go) and she is accepting the fact that in her roles as well as in life she must face the years and the toll they take. She has® discarded her old coiffure (these famous bangs—and I don’t mean Claudette Colbert!) amd she has adopted styles in wardrobe in keeping with her increasing dignity. Her fame came, in the first place, from a certain hoydenish boisterousness. She has had the good sense, facing facts, to abandon that harum-scarum personality. She is grateful, you can tell, for what Hollywood has already There is a beautiful home, and a swimming pool, She done for her. hordes of loving pets, and—best of all—security. All this is in beautiful contrast to her early years in this uncertain town, years in which she refused to give up trying, years in which studio gates clanged shut in her face more often than they opened. She knows “Come and Get It Has ’ a Special Meaning Tasty food, efficient service and an atmosphere truly home-like sound the old call of “Come and Get It” .. . aPERCY’S » that where she succeeded, hundreds perhaps as ambitious: and talented are still fighting for a chance. She is duly grateful. And it is a strange thing, but her policy of growing old gracefully has done wonders for her personality—and, not at all incidentally, for her figure. The lady has pluck. She is not giving in completely to the calendar's quick-turning leaves. Perhaps it is because she knows about Marie Dressler, who found new fame and fortune after Hollywood had her all “washed up.” Perhaps it is- because, like any sensible woman, she realizes that the years have nothing to do, really, with one’s grooming. Even an octogenarian can look sweet and neat if she tries—as this actress’s 81-year-old grand- mother, now here on a visit, proves. But the strangest thing of all is this: by growing old grace- fully, the actress undoubtedly has prolonged her stardom. A couple of years ago, some of us were afraid that her.cute ways were slipping into meer muggishness; she was working too hard at her trade. Today, all that is gone:. Poise and serenity, and greater charm therefore, are hers. And she is a better actress. In her present film, “We're in the Army Now,” she sings a song about flowers: (her voice is improving too) and at the end she is required to give freely of tears. She wept and wept (per- haps thinking of old age made it easier) and so effectively that her director, H. Bruce Humberstone, sent her orchids. (Oddly enough, they were her first. Not all movie stars eat them for breakfast, you know.) Observing these things, T'll make a prediction: Jane Withers at the creaky old age of 13 is just at the threshold of her career. The bosses seem to think so too. They're giving her better casts—in the current epic she’s co-stared with the Ritz brothers, but T'm thinking of Joseph Schildkraut. And in the fall, just before she takes that long-promised trip home to Atlanta, she's set for a co-starrer with the king of the cowboys—Gene Autry! ————————————————————————————————————— There is no substitute for Newspaper Advertising | i) oy e —————— ..
