THE OAKVILLE-TRAFALGAR JOURNAL , Thursday, Feguary 23, 195(| By JIM HARRISON INSIDE BRIEFS Beautiful June Whipple, better known to thousands as Miss Ohio State, has a rather incongruous cinema debut in the womens' prison drama, "Caged." She por- trays one the of prisoners. The Kent Smiths have celebrat- ed their 13th wedding anniver- Some adorning fan has sent Doris Day a cuckoo clock the like of which Cinemaland never has seen.

Telephone 290 she says, "but it bows, flaps its wings and ruffles up the feathers on the back of its neck." Even some of Cinemaland's vil- lains are connected with the no- bility: Viveca Lindfors, a very naughty beauty in "Backfire," is a descendant of the great Didrik von Parat, fencing master to Sweden's King Charles V11; and Robert Douglas, is the brother- in-law of England's Countess of Warwick. Esther Williams owns a seafood restaurant, A woman known as "Lizzy" because she uses no other name in her correspond- ence, has been writing weekly fan letters to Errol Flynn for more than eight years! She lives in London, England. Marie MacDonald has com- pletely recovered from her re- cent illness. The sight of the week was the duel between Cornel Wilde, handsome and husky, and Maur- een O'Hara, dainty and beauti- ful, fighting with rapiers for "Sons of the Musketeers." GUEST OF THE WEEK If Miss G. Bain, 22 Ker St, will present herself at the box office of the Century Theatre any night next week, she and another guest will be admitted free as guests of the Journal.

I have had many friends there, some of whom I admired, respected and loved. They are not the people who brought on this war. As patriots they will fight for their Emperor and country, to the last ditch if necessary, put they did not want this war and it was not they who began it. Even duf- ing our imprisonment in Tokyo many of these friends used to contrive to send us gifts in spite of the usual obstruction of the police, who wished to cut us off completely from the outside world. They were not the usual gifts of flowers but gifts of food, sometimes a piece of meat, which was the most precious gift they could confer because they them- selves could seldom get any. For ten years I have broken bread in their house and they in mine. They were personally loyal to me to the end." He goes on to tell the other side of the picture, the ugly side of cruelty, brutality and ut- ter bestiality of the Japanese military machine which must be crushed if peace loving nations are to survive. Never does he suggest the extermination of the Japanese as a race. As for the good Jew and the trustworthy Italian, let us not forget the elder statesman not only of the United States but the United Nations, Bernard Baruch who so often acted as ad- visor and host to both Roosevelt and Churchill and has in turn been the guest of our royal fam- ily. Though he towers above many of his race and creed he does not stand alone. My Italian friend is Carlo Levi, doctor, writ- er, artist and humanitarian, a man of true culture, who because his ideas ran contrary to Mus- solini's spent several years as a political prisoner in a malaria rid- den filthy village in southern Italy. A lesser soul might have turned mad, Levi though not a Catholic, played the organ in the village church, ministered to the needs of the sick and with pal- ette and brush brought a little beauty into their sordid lives. Of all the books I read last week Somerset de Chair's "Gold- en Carpet" was the best from a literary standpoint and I venture to prophecy it will become a clas- sic . Now for a let down, though it may be proof of Hemingway's ability, after reading "The Sun Also Rises" TI felt I needed a wash and a mouth wash. While con- fined to my room I had travelled hursda; Girl Guides By Mrs. J. F. Graydon All Guide Companies and Brownie Packs will meet togeth- er in the Masonic Hall on Wed- nesday evening to commemor- ate Thinking Day, with * their leaders, and all parents and fylends are invited to join them.

ST. JUDE'S The Lenten season at St. Jude's Church was inaugurated yester- day, Ash Wednesday, with cele- bration of Holy Communion at 10 am. and a Lenten service at 8 pam.

Another meeting of the Association will be held shortly. A special service in celebration of Boy Scout Week is being held in St. Jude's Church this Sunday at 4.15 when all local the world with nice people only to end in Spain with lewd drunks and prostitues. There may be something lacking in me that I fail to appreciate Hemingway and his friends, perhaps it is not without significance that he was among the first to send flowers and congratulations to Ingrid Bergman believing as he no doubt does that © the sun also rises" A week in bed has made me feel better able to judge the good I have yet to learn to assess the bad but since on doctor's or- ders I must remain in another week who knows what my next column may bring forth. Just think of it I have yet to see, never mind read, a crime comic. Scouts, Cubs, Guides and Brown- ies will parade to the church. Rev, J. A. M.
