sneaking suspicion that all films based
on French history should be spoken in
the mother tongue. Miss Kenyon says
her syllables so that you can forget
that she is far cry from the original,

that silken manner which has always
made him one Of the foremost elocu-
tionistS of the theater.
What we cannot understand is why
Margaret Lindsay. a young lady who in
"Cavalcade" was so stern looking that
you almost said "hoopla" when she went
down on the Titanic, should be Haunted
about as flrst-class Venus. A nice
little actress who has an unfortunate
habit of twisting her mouth around in
knots, Miss Lindsay does not seem, for
instance, in "Voltaire" to be the devas-
tating beauty she is meant to be-nor
does she lend more than $3.50 intelh-
gence to the role.
She it is who first reminded US, too,
that films about France should be
spoken in French. Because, while she
is speaking with a strong Picadilly &C
cent, Miss Kenyon is speaking plain
Hollywood, and while Miss Kenyon is
speaking plain Hollywood Reginald

S.S.S. builds up the blood
If your blood count is low you owe it
to yourself and friends to try S.S.S.
This long established blood tonic acts
by stimulating the secretions of the
stomach reviving the appetite
%. aiding digestion increasing the
red-blood-cells restoring hemo-
globin-and building greater resistance
against infection and disease.
S.S.S. helpfulness is illustrated by
the fact that nearly one-haIf of those
who have taken it, for the first time,
do so upon the recommendation of
some friend who has been benefited.
A distinctive thing about S.S.S. is
that it is made from fresh roots, barks,
and herbs and being in liquid
form it is readily absorbed by the sys-
tenn. Its efficacy has been proved by
scientific tests and by its use for more
than 100 years.
Then eVhy not begin the S.S.S.
course of treatment today?
Try S.S.S. yourself. Get it from any
drug store. In two sizes: regular and
double-the latter is more economical
and is sufficient for two weeks treat
ment. 1t may be the means of bringing
better health and more happiness to
you. Insist on SIS. S.-the proven blood

Sunday Night Attack

A grim fight for life is being
waged today by Mrs. Barbara
Ritchie Oliver, 25-year-old Fair
fax matron, shot down last night
by her estranged husband. Ply
sicians at Georgetown Hospital
who early today performed an
emergency operation to save her
life said her condition is salts
factory but critical.
Wilmer Holbrook, 81, of Fairfax,
who was one of a party at the
Ritchie home near historic Fair
fax courthouse at the time of the
shooting also was wounded when
he attempted to seize a shotgun
held by Lewis Oliver, 28-year-old
husband of the injured woman.
Forced Way into Home
Mrs. Oliver, Holbrook, and
some friends were playing cards in
the Ritchie house when Oliver
forced his way through the front
door, pointed his shotgun at his
wife, and fired. Holbrook knocked
the gun down, part of the charge
going into his right leg.
AS Holbrook fell Oliver raised
his gun again, took deliberate
aim and fired. Mrs. Oliver was
hit but staggered from the house
across the street to the jail,
where she collapsed on the steps.
Sheriff Eppa Kirby took her in
and, accompanied by Officer
Charles Bullock, went to the
Ritchie home, where he found
Oliver, said to have been in a
befuddled condition, sitting on
the bank in front of the house.
Judge A. C. Ritchie, father of
Mrs. Oliver and a cousin TO Gov
ernor Albert C. Ritchie, of Mary
land, and younger brother of
the young wife, Lewis Ritchie,
were not at home at the time
OF the shooting but arrived
shortly after the sheriff.
Holbrook, Carleton. Sims and
Judge Ritchie struck the assailant
with their fists, according to
Sheriff Eppa Kirby.

vouches for that. He must keep his
mind alert and his body physically fit.
Several years ago Chief Connally's

He felt tired. His color was "off." :"
Numbness and pricking sensations
showed his circulation was poor. His
appetite Jagged and he suffered diges-
tive disturbances after eating.
A pathological laboratory report
showed deficient red7blood-cells with
reduced hemoglobin content of the
blood-in fact, it was 1870 below normal.
Strength restored-skin became clear
It was then that Chief ConnalIy de-
cided to take a~course of S.S.S. In six
weeks time another blood test was
made and it showed that his red-blood-
cells and hemoglobin had been re-
stored to normal.
He wrote: my appetite and diges-
ton are greatly improved, so much
so that can eat pork and the like
without any discomfort, and to my
surprise my skin and complexion has
cleared and become almost like achild's.
S.S.S. has so improved my circulation

week.
Although the Governor has
stated that the budget estimates
he submitted to the legislature,
January "a provided for the
minimum of governmental service
that might be reasonably be ex-
pected and could not be reduced
further without harmful effect,
he is understood to be ready to
agree to the Legislature taking
the responsibility for a program
of further curtailment, provided
the cuts are made where they
will do least harm.
Revenue Bill Pending
Bills awaiting disposal of the
budget problem include the gas
oline-tax revenues to increase
Baltimore's share of proceeds and
lite the burden of local levies for
highways in the counties and pro-
posed reduction of school levies
