SOLUTION
TO FJZZ'

There is something distinctly I'M
feminine and not charming about
fuzzy legs and arms.
In this healthy day and age, face
the fact that you can get lid Of y.
You can shave your legs, the hairs
only grow back quickly and there
you are, all ready for another shave,
and each shave makes them grow
more quickly.
The best solution is one Of the
many good, reliable depllatories on
the market.
These come under four general
divisions, depending on their type.
There are pastes, powders, liquids
and wax. Since wax requires a treat
ment all its own, the other three
should be considered now.
II you use a paste ~depilatory,
spread II on with a wooden Spatula
that comes with 1t. DON'T rub II

directions specify. Then dampen the
portion Of your legs or arms covered

or a wash rag wrung out OF warm

The powder di~pilatories are in the

Always add exactly the amount Of
water that the powder specifics and
then apply the paste you make ac-
cording to the rules 70 paste dipila-
tories.
Whatever you use to remove the
fuzz, certain rules should be followed
before you apply them:
I. Wash your arms, EGGS or under
the arms perfectly clean before you
start applying d~epllatories.
2. Dry them thoroughly.
3. After applying hair removers.
Use some good antiseptic on the
cleansed surfaces. Nothing is better
for this than alcohol. II your skin

4. Don't put hot water on sur

poses the surfaces.

NEW YORK, Aug. 2S.-To her

explosive kerchoos that hall mark
hay fever addicts every summer
when the field grasses broadcast

leading hospitals and laboratories
TO insure sterile rooms and by such
famous hay fever sufferers as the
King Of Siam TO purge bedroom and

pollens. But, until her marriage in
1923. she had concentrated on
g~ynecolOgy. Inventions were just
something TO read about like polar
expeditions and trans : Atlantic

WINNIE LIGHTNER AND JOE
 E. BROWN IN "SIT TIGHT"

Capacity audiences at Warner Brothers State for the past two days give evidence of the popularity of those two button busting buffoons of comedy, Winnie Lightner and Joe D. Brown, who are appearing in a riotous comedy hit "Sit' Tight" The picture closes it's run at the State tonight.
 "Sit Tight" is the work of a mas ter of comedy-making, Rex Taylor, and the dialogue of William K. Wells is as poppy as o. Henry could have made it. It is in the vernacular of the ring and the medics. too, for what are the two funny-folks but a female doctor and her male assist ant.
 Winnie is the slap-'em -down-and- Ieave-' -'em-lay physician of health help the patients and Joe is Jojo the Tiger, hero (to hear him tell it) of many fistic en- counters-and an admirer of beauty as the lady inmates can testify.
 Tn the same building is the office of a middle-aged millionaire, Dunlap, who has a pretty daughter, Sally, who, through her dad. gets better job for Tom Weston whom she loves. Tom won't take the job because he hasn't earned it, and he and Sally quarrel and part. Winnie sees him coming, recognizes in his Adonis form the white hope for whom she has been looking, hires him on the spot, and has him begin training for the champ.
 It's an interesting story from start to finish.
 The feature, accompanied by an excellent surrounding program Is shown at 2:20, 4:40, 7:00 and 9:30.

DOUBLE FEATURE SCREEN SHOW AT WARNER BROTHERS PROVES INTERESTING
 TALKIE ENTERTAINMENT

Warner Brothers Strand is pre- senting an excellent double feature bill to it's patrons to-day, for the last time, of three day engage ment.
 Headlining the bill is "The Sum- rise Trail," starring Bob Steele.
 Steele portrays most thankless It Is complete departure from his usual run of impersonations. He is what is to-day known as a "stool pigeon," although in those days 1t was given the name of "star-pack- er." It becomes necessary for him a member of the sheriff,s forces to join cattle-rustling gang, worm his way into it's machinations, gain their confidence, and subsequently secure evidence in order to convict them of their criminal operations. It is a role in which danger and evil as we'll as romance and love are necessarily mingled, but ;, the com bination results in good for the com- munity and the exoneration of the hero. Miss Mehaffey is the heroine, depicting the role of a justified nnur- deress who hees to a disputable tav- ern so that she may hide from jus- tice; Clifford IS the lovable outlaw whom Steele sbefriends, and Dunn is the cattle rustlers' head.
 The companion feature on the bill is screen adaptation of Sir Walter Scott's immortal poem The Lady of the Lake,"
 The cast of British and American players is headed by Percy Mar mont and Benita Hume. The former seen to advantage in "Mantrap,'' The Light That Failed" ''Infatua- tion," and other outstanding produc- tions, has the role of King James V. of Scotland, and wears the cos- tunes of that worthy-traveling in- cognito as a wandering hunter and the royal robes in Stirling Castle, as if to the manor born. His fine per- formance is marked by dignity and feeling. Playing opposite is Benita Hume, who was seen recently on the New York stage in the smart Lon- don comedy, Symphony in Two Flats" She is more than attractive, and portrays the title role of Ellen Douglas with a nattralness that is in perfect keeping with the spirit of the character.
 Starting tomorrow an all-new show including five deluxe acts of vaudeville and Charlie Murray and George Sidney in Caught Cheating" an all-talking comedy hit, will be ushered in.

EDNA TERRIERS "CINARRON" WITH RICHARD DIX HEAD ING HUGE CAST TO OPEN TO- MORROW AT THE STATE

Brought to the theater-going pulp lie by Radio Pictures, Edna Ferber's epic "Cimarron" opens a four day engagement at Warner Brothers State theater tomorrow afternoon. "Cimarron' the picture, is all that is gripping in "Cimarron," the story. Richard Dix as Yancey Cravat seems to have walked right out of the pages of the book. Lon Yountis will never be really slain until you
 see Dix do it, in the most poignant scene of talking picture history. the
 Osage gambling tent sermon episode. And those stupendous clashes of
 wills between Yancey and Sabro, Dunne, should make the original
 story more than an epic. It becomes an immortal record of those deep psychological differences between
 American men and women, out of which has arisen the fundamental character of our nation.
 ! Spectacular scenes abound in | this production, but they are new kind. Through the wizardy of Wesley Ruggles. director. they
 transcend mere spectacle and be- come inspiring flashes which punctuate and make the produc- l t1On as reaHStlc dS eariy Okid. | homa itself.
 | The stupendous. land rush scenes, in which thousands of vehicles, anil
 mals and players appear is pre-
 sented in such an ingenious fash
 ion that the spectator is apt to feel
 himself part of this spectacular
 episode.
 | Standing clear and unfettered
 above all the artistic accomplish
 ments of this production. however,
 is one great fact. For once. a mo- tion picture producer has taken not
 a single dramatic license. "Cimar-
 ron" of the talking screen, is Edna
 Ferber's ''Cimarron." complete. truthful in every detail.
 | Dix, hero of score of notable fscreen roles has never been seen to
 better advantage. One feels that Edna Ferber wrote her great novel lwith Dix in mind as Yancey Cra-
 vat. Irene Dunne steps to the fore
