Many bulbs may be planted in November. For nice long stems on hyacinths, plant the bulbs at least three inches deep if your soil is heavy, and from four to five inches if the soil is light and sandy. 1 They should then be mulched with at least three Inches of leaves to keep the bulbs dark to promote good stem growth. Bone meal is an excellent fertilizer for hyacinths and other bulbs and rhizomes. the poinsettia outside until the nights become cool or until there is the least danger of frost.

Then place the plant inside in a light airy location where the temperature ranges from 60 degrees to 65 degrees F. Avoid placing the plant in a draft, as this frequently causes the leaves to drop, as will also an excessive temperature. Take care that the soil is supplied with sufficient moisture and that it is not allowed to dry out for even a brief interval. During the tall the poinsettia is benefited by an application of liquid manure at weekly intervals, especially as the plant becomes The agent states that beds and borders that have finished blooming should be cleaned up. If the old plants you remove are free of insects and diseases put them in the compost heap.

Burn all diseased or insect infested plants. If you start the compost heap in October, it is not too late. Next year when you have all that good compost to into your beds, you'll be very pleased with yourself. As your perennial seedlings which were planted earlier, begin to grow, pinch out the tops to induce a bushy growth. Mrs.

m. All Mas- Wednesday, October 31, 1951 The Monroe News-Star 3 Fiddler IN HOLLYWOOD Hollywood, Oct. 31. Somewhere in the Filmville news, almost every day, an announcement that this or that studio is planning an all-out, star-building campaign for one of its younger players. Having witnessed the results of scores of star-building campaigns, I always read such announcements with a feeling of apprehension.

consider, for instance, the case of 17-year-old Debbie Reynolds, for w'hom the tubthumpers are working overtime just now at MGM. Sine she has considerable beauty, great personal charm and undeniable talent, I have no doubt that the concentrated exploitation campaign planned in her behalf will, indeed, make her a top-flight I star. 1 generate the feeling of apprehensions as I winder what the campaign will do to Debbie Reynolds. a very biiel fore- cast of what she has in prospect. going to be by dozens of magazine writers adults, all of the course of the next year.

Most of those writers, wmrking according to a formula laid down by will vest her opinions with infinite importance, flatter her without stint and, having treated her like a princess royal during the course of the interview, will go away to write articles extolling her as though she were superhuman. going to pose for famous photographers and see her pictues, captioned Debbie looking back at her from magazine covers, bill boards and newspapers. going to be buried under an avalanche of admiring fan letters. Whenever she is recognized in public, she will be beseiged, instantly, by a swarm autograph hunters. As she grows in the sycophants who make up a considerable portion of every personnel will go all-out in their own to cultivate her; every serious wmrd she says will he hailed as the remark of a sibyl, every witticism that she attempts will be greeted with roars of laughter.

For her, the Hollywood caste system will show its happiest side. Even her social life wll be affected, for no girl can ride a rocket to stardom ithout a host of would-be stars attempting to steal a ride. The more she is publicized the more publicity is harvested by the young men lucky enough to date her. The greater her celebrity the greater the number of door who will want to be seen in her company. The greater her popularity, the more num- erous requests that will be made for her to figure-head for this important project and that international event.

And with it all, money salary big enough, even when been partially confiscated by taxes, to finance hundreds of extravagant whims. Now this same Debbie Reynolds, aged 17, happens to be one of the most level-headed youngsters met in a lot of years. But the fact remains that she is only 17, and that not one teen-ager in a million can weather such a storm of adulation without being greatly affected. I hope going to be the one in a million; I think very apt to be. If she is, going to 1 admire her far more for her 1 staunch good than I ever will for her acting ability, even though i she proves to be a second Bernhardt.

Speaking of youthful stars and the dangers of sudden success, reminded of another MGM Mario Lanza. Much has been written about Mario's overpowering egomania, but no one has presented more convincing evidence of his affliction than affording, himself, by his yen to escape from his studio contract and set up shop as the producer of his own pictures. It would be laughable to see a peagreen star, with no more than four screen roles behind him, deciding that infinitely wiser than the veterans who have guided his affairs to date, if it were not so pathetic. Before carrying his reported plans any further, it would be an excellent idea for the great Mario to brush up on theatrical history and discover for himself how many stars, of far greater experience and maturity than he can claim, have wrecked their ships by trying to pilot themselves through the shoal waters of production. ter Masons wall be Invited in at 8:15 p.

m. Monday The Review Club will meet in the home of Mrs. John P. Noel, 1105 North First street at 2:30 p.m. The regular meeting of the Ouachita Parish Classroom Teachers Association will be held at Ouachita Parish Grammar School Monday evening November 5, at 7:30 p.

m. All teachers are urged to attend. A report that the business done by drive-in theatres has increased nearly fifty per cent during the past year, draw's from a movie tycoon the opinion that the upswung, in their case, is due to the booking of better pictures. I doubt it in view of the fact that regulation indoor movie theatres, which have booked the same have registered only a trivial percentage gain over the business they did last year. More important, I think, is the tact that people have discovered that four persons can see a picture.

in the average drive in, for approximately the same money that it costs one person to go to an orthodox theatre and pay a parking charge. o--------The motto on the first penny authorized by the U. S.
