Dear Joan-- Got your note about the difficulties you are having with Bill. That Reno-vation stuff is the bunk. I've a.better idea. Ta.leehim to the moving pictures~ Crazy? Not a.bit of it. I've just glimpsed two of the most powerful demonstrations of the power of love even my experienced orbs ha.ve ever seen. First, Pa.ramount's ama.zing new Cecil B. DelllilleTechnicolor drama of the big open spa.ces, "North West Mounted Police." The old master bas managed to weave into his yarn about the gallant red coats not one but two of the most convincing love stories I've ever seen on the screen. Gary Cooper in bis best, and I mean best, role to date and Preston Foster compete for the love of Madeleine Carroll in a roma.nee that'll have Bill dewy-eyed. And Paulette Goddard and Robert Preston unravel a love story that would send an iceberg into ther• mostatic ecstatics. If "North West Mounted Police" doesn't succeed in mellowing him, and I'm sure it will, you don't need to worry. Pa.ramount's "Arise, My Love" is just about the answer to the lovelorn's prayer. Claudette Colbert and Ray Milland ma.leethis Mitch Leisen combination of the laughter of "lllidnigl'>t,"the heart appeal of "Farewell to Arms," into THE love picture of the decade. It's tender. It's titilating. It's terrific. Bill'll be holding your hand before the end of the first reel ...kissing you by the fifth. But you get the idea ...so watch for these two great love pictures ...collect Bill ...and watch 'em knock Reno foolishness out of both your heads. Yours helpfully, "Arise, my Jove, and fly away with me!"
