Girl on wrong note
Mary had a beautiful voice, but now her big chance was slipping away!
“Stop! That last duet was terrible. Let’s give it a rest for the evening.”
“Marry , i’m afraid you have togo back to the chorus.”
“On please John, you know i’m note perfect already.”
“It’s not that, Marry. It’s just that the other principals seem to be-er- uncomfortable when your around.”
“Looks like i’ll be joining you again in the chorus, Jean.”
“I thought you were singing like a lark. What did John say?”
“He thinks i don’t get on with people. What’s wrong with me, anyway, Jean?”
“Mary, please don’t think i’m catty, but are you really careful about personal freshness? You see, perfumes and deodorants are not enough. I’ll tell you what i do.
NEXT BATHTIME
“I feel like singing the place down. No wonder Jean mentioned Lifebuoy Toilet Soap. What a lovely perfume! Now i don’t have to worry about B.O.”
“Go on, Mary, take a special bow. It’s you they want.”
.... Thanks to Jean and Lifebuoy.

"No wonder Jill's travelled so far so fast" says Geoff Ryan . . . this Adams is all Eve!
STORMING four citadels of show business in two years flat is pretty good going. And when I met the Rank Organisation's beautiful blonde star, Jill Adams, on the set the other day, between takes of her latest glamour role, the full impact of her vital personality came right across to tell me why she's the get-there-quickly girl.
But Jill was frank. "Of course personality's the first thing that gets you places," she said, "but a girl needs a lot more than that for success." Admiring her prettiness, her pin-up curves (36-231/2-35), I murmured that I thought it was obvious she had plenty of plusses besides personality. 

"I meant hard work," she told me, her gay smile revealing, another asset, prefect teeth. 
She went on: "Your flattery just proves my point! Good looks have to be worked at, too. People notice the tiniest details, particularly about the mouth and teeth. And I think that goes for every girl whether she's in show business or not."
Then Jill got really confidential. "I make my teeth look shades whiter by tinting my gums to match my-lipstick," she admitted.
"Studio secret?" I queried.
"Gracious, no!" laughed Jill. "Just Cosmetic Toothpaste. There's something in it that polishes tooth enamel like jeweller's rouge polishes gold. It's ruby-red, and that's where the glamour-touch comes in!"
A voice blared.
"Miss Adams, please!" Another call to face the cameras. And the versatile girl who’s mounted the stairway to stardom so speedily went back to climb another rung.  GEOFF RYAN.
. The glamour ingredient referred to by Miss Adams is rougeryl, and the only toothpaste in which it is to be found is Gordon-Moore’s Cosmetic Toothpaste. This famous product is now available to the general public, not merely stars of stage, screen and television. It costs 2/111/2d (about 41 cents)?. a tube (trial size 1/91/2d. (about 25 cents)? at all chemists and stores.
