THE SOLDIER'S GENERAL

Sir C. Harington's Book

Reviewed by Major-General Sir. C. W. Gwynn. "Plumer of Messines. By General Sir Charles Haring- ton, (John Murray, 12s. 6d.). How was it that Plumer, who cwed so little to externals or to obvious intellectual brilliance. commanded such instant devotion and obedience from all sorts and conditions of men?

That one so simple, straight for ward, thoughtful for others, and possessing charm, enhanced by a sense of humour, should have been universally beloved we can under- stand.

MARSHA MAKES GOOD

'',

A few weeks ago Marsha Hunt, a new "and" who was given the feminine lead in her first screen assignment---The Virginia Judge was selling coffee, cigarettes and breakfast foods.

Marsha was one of those pretty girls who smile down at you from posters and up at you from magazine covers.

A director bought one of these magazines (this is a true story) and along 100 yards of the street saw her face on the posters six times.

THIS SEASON'S. CLOTHES

More Luxurious Than Even In Hollywood

Clothes will be more luxurious "than ever.”~Such is the decree of

rashion designers.

But what constitutes luxury `in clothes? Fabrics, trimming, də- sign, just what do they all mean? Adrian, famous Hollywood de- algner, answers this question, at least in part, in gowns worn by various members of the, cast of

Broadway Melody Of 1936."*

Luxury in clothes combines fabric, trimming und design," he said. The combination of the finest in all of these things is found in the fashions for this com- ing season."

Broadway Melody Of 1936 pre- sents a number of outstanding Adrian creations to llustrate this point, Particularly stressed is the elaborate use of fur. On öne suit worn by Eleanor Powell he used seven. full blue-fox skins as trim- ming. The suit itself was created in Burgundy costume velvet and was

fastened at waistline__and neck by extra large jewelled clips

Another sult, emphasizing the use of fur, particularly fox, is worn in the same production by June Knight. June's suit is made or black costume velvet. A wide strip of

silver tox is stretched · from shoulder to shoulder, across the front and across the back, wind- ing from there about the arms.

So he got into "touch with the bill-posting company.

He does not show us quite so clearly the attributes which made him a commander who inspired confidence, and an administrator whose will was accepted instantly as law.
