...water outside, shouting instructions to "Keep calm." Fifteen thousand soldiers helped out these volunteers. Stretcher bearers wearing gas masks picked out grinning civilians, bandaged them and lugged them to "emergency hospitals" in schools and public halls. At this play-acting Sato's sentimental little wife was seen to weep. Tokyo's fire engines clanged out to put out imaginary fires in buildings designated as having been "hit" by enemy bombs. Through all this, seven Princes of the Blood Imperial scurried on inspection tours to focal points. That day the enemy planes buzzed back over Tokyo again...
...Hall would be closed, beginning next year. While the gloomy interior of the place has made it an excellent site for the decay to which students are given, and while some of the more decadent may mourn its passing for that reason, none in his right mind will weep at the bier of the lecherous old incubus. A malignant growth, it has been dislodged only by repeated complaints of various natures, and by the manifesto of the Commissioner of Public Safety; the slowness of its demise has not been the least reprehensible of its characteristics...
Sargent & Ross are broadcasting for Tangee Lipstick with Greta Keller. They help give the program speed which, but for the excess of advertising comment, would make it one of the best on the air.

He implored in a great voice, a kind of mooing roar. 'Give yourself to me. Margaret. Give yourself now. Give yourself and save me from what...
...Kreisler wrote charming, familiar music. He used themes from his "Caprice Viennois" and from "Liebes-freud," violin pieces so fluent and lilting that longest-faced critics have not fussed at their lack of profundity. "Wine Is My Weakness" and "With Eyes Like Thine, 'Tis Sin to Weep" are two new pieces the Viennese relished. If Sissy visits the U. S., Kreisler will take out tunes he has borrowed from Apple Blossoms, the operetta which he wrote in collaboration with Composer Victor Jacobi 13 years ago. Apple Blossoms never saw Vienna but it made Kreisler a tidy...
