If you
had just twenty-four hours to live, what would you do?

"After I attended to these mat- ters, I would plan a dinner for all my closest friends. Naturally, I wouldn't want them to know any- thing about my leaving them. For I'd want no note of sadness during my last hours. At the dinner there would be music, galety, and talk of old times. Just about half an hour before my time was up, I'd see that everybody left. Then I'd

The film censor, Mr. Edward Shartt, deplores the increase in the number of "horror" films.

"I believe they will have a deleterious effect on the adolescent. Some licensing authorities are al ready much disturbed about them,

"Jeanette MacDonald says that
It is difficult to decide just what she would do under the circum- stances, but she knows that she would take all her savings out of the bank.
"I would distribute it among my relatives and the various people I. know who are in need," says Miss MacDonald. "When that WAS done, 1 would pick out the most charming outfit I had, make myself as handsome as possible, and start a gay whirl about town with my fiance, Bob Ritchie."
THE STRONG MAN Were he given twenty-four hours to live, Clark Gable says that he would try to make them seem just like any other day:
"I should like to have that day in the mountains," says Gable, "I would got up early to see the sun rise. At such a time I imagine I'd like to be alone. It would be too and to have all my friends or relatives grieved at the thought of iny leaving them. I'd try to spend all the time outdoors, tramping through the woods, and absorbing as much of my surroundings is possible. In the evening, I'd select a good book and let the time pass on just as though I had other evenings before me."

"Then I would go outside," says Maureen. "It would be a pity not to be out enjoying the sunlight, the air, and all the beauties of nature for the last time. Were I in Holly- wood, I'd probably drive down to the beach and lie on the sand, just watching the waves and thinking.""
THINKS OF MOTHER
Jean Harlow isn't sure what she would do.
"Frankly," she declares, "I am unable to say what I would do. 1 know that I am not afraid to dle, and it's quite possible that I would' pass the last day just as I would any other. Naturally, I would want my business affairs to be in order.
"If I were home," she continues, "I would get us in the morning for a game of golf or a swim. Then I'd allend to all my business matters. The remainder of the time I'd spend trying to make my mother as happy as possible."
Virginia Bruce has the follow- ing plan:
