Yesterday, after ten years of inteme ' sive effort, Tom Garaghty meé Samuel G. Blythe. Years and years ago when Garaghty, now supervising director for Para. mount, was a struggling writer im Rushville, Ind., Blythe, already one of the country's most Widely read newspaper writers, took time to write the then unknown reporter a note ad- vising him to go to New York and get a newspaper job.

Much 'bilged!’" “Hello, Tom,'’ answered Blythe. “You're welcome!’ Then they parted. TAKE YOUR CHOICE. One-half of the South Sea Islands doesn’t know, nor care, how the other half lives.

John Bowers, ax the leading man, finds all the enchantments and a lot of cocoanut moonshine and is making right merry when Miss Compson, as the heroine, whisks him away to another island sans women, sans rum, sans everything but a great, calming quiet—and there reforms him. We'd sorter hate to start out look- ing for our island of dreams and run afoul of this latter barren dot in the South Seas—it would be an awful disappointment.
