Be Up to Date is a 1938 Betty Boop animated short film.[2]

## Plot

Betty Boop's Traveling Department Store comes to Hillbillyville; the mountain folks find old uses for the new gadgets, such as using a waffle iron for ironing hair, or playing music, in which Betty joins in on the fun.

## Notes

This is the last theatrical short subject cartoon in which Mae Questel voiced Betty. After this cartoon, other people would provide Betty's voice.
