"HORRORS FOR HEALTH.' "I really think that it is a sign of physical healthiness when people like to be thrilled horrifically. It is natural to appreciate 'strong meat' drama —because it is fare of a kind one can get's one teeth into." Thus speaks Dame Sybil Thorndyke, who is playing in a "thriller" in London. "I'have always been an unashamed devotee of good, honest melodrama," she explains. "I do not mean that there should not be variety on the stage, but you cannot have real variety unless genuine melodrama is represented along with the rest. Audiences want to be given a dose of the horrors—the men, at all events. They may not realise it, but they do." Another thing that men like is good tobacco—such as Blue Shield (Medium) and Bed Shield (Dark), which are New Zealand tobaccos at their best. Toasted, of course—"toasted to a turn" to make them perfectly smooth, cool and satisfying. Try a tin to-day—a 2oz. tin at 1/7, or an economical lib canister. (51)
