This traffic was carried on in the eighteenth cen- tury in England by so-called “spiriters,” who picked up chil- dren, especially orphans an stréet urchins (any children ove: eight years would do, but young- er than that died in transit) and then sent them to the West In dies. One of these “syirite boasted that he had carried aw and sold an average of 500 chil- dren a year for a period of twelve years. Another claimed he thad handled 850 a single year. One girl of sixteen managed to escape. She got back to London and preferred charges against dher kidnaper, who was appre- hended, tried and convicted, and his sentence was a fine of twelvé pence! xk | Trail, the Stang] x k * The pottery dinnerware we see in as many homes these days is so lovely and gay as an informal garden. Its ropularity is on the increase because at the low prices featur it is possible to have s 1 sets for different table and color arrangements. Some of the loveliest we've seen in a long, long time are at the Beachcomber Jewelers. The Franciscan Wares with the famous Desert Rose, Apple and Ivy patterns. This is all open stock. Then there is the Ivy and Peach Blossom Poppy Thistle, the tiful colors. The Royal Jack- son red, wine and other famous makes. Oh, we mustn't forget the Brock “Chanticleer” and other lovely Brock patterns. Of interest to everyone is the wonderful new plastic ware that looks exactly like pottery: It is made in the new ‘square shapes, the véry newest colors, and is Fletely unbreakable. For peo- ple who have to do a lot of moving around, or with very small children in the family, you can combine beauty . with serviceable wear.

If you are not a romanticist; if you are so matter of-fact that your ima- gination dislikes working over- time, you will rebel at being asked to accept the fantasy. But there are few men and women who are such calloused realists jthat they can completely reject | the theme, presented with a lyric }quality and expert acting. Remember “Portrait of Jean- nie” with Jennifer Jones and Joseph Cotton in a movie which telescoped time and dealt with |reincarnation? There is a similar- jity here. The narration is pre- sented by a smooth voice ana the opening sequence is followed by flashbacks which unfold the tale. “Uncle Jeffry” is examining an old manuscript when his niece rushes in to tell him that fisher- men: have brought in two bodies to the beach. A bell is tolling and the villagers of a Spanish town called Esperanza run to the scene, All that is shown is that of a delicate hand of a woman lying against the palm of a man, the rest is covered by the coarse net. which bad retrieved them ftom the sea. © “The net of destiny is the back- ground of the story. Pandora, a beautiful, selfish, vain and head- strong girl is played avidly by Ava Garner who obviously en- joys her role and so does it justice. She is the femme fatale who attracts suitors as.a flame mag- Mnetizes moths. And she is just as cide over her. Another, a racing car advocate ditches his fiancee and his ear for love of Pandora. This gentleman, by the by, is a subtle comedian at times. His smoke is only stolen by the Spanish bullfighter, Cabre, who also falls afoul of Pandora’s lure to the extent of trying murder. The portrait of the toreador is 4 done in bold, magnificent artis- try.
