HANDY ANDY"
 OPENS SUNDAY
 AT C APT OL
Will Rogers, Noted Comed- ian, Coming in Funniest
 Feature of His Career

His wife wanted him to retire and play little. {. . but all play and no work makes Will a wild boy.
 That, in brief, is the story of Will Rogers latest picture, Handy Andy" coming to the Capitol The atre tomorrow. Advance reports from the p-eviews say this is the funniest comedy of his career. And the highlights of the story bear this out.
 Will is getting along comfortably in his drug store. when his wife, Peggy Wood, pcrsuades him to sell out. First he takes up pigeon raising, but he has to stop that when his pets fly all over the house. Next he takes up golf, with uprolrious results. Then his wife and daughter. Mary Carlisle, persuade him to attend the Mardi Gras in Nov Orleans.
 That's when things really begin to happen. Will begs off from attending the Comus costume ball. Wandering <around alone. he gets acquainteX wMh a fellow druggist and hiY dashing B girl friend. Con- chita fdontenet tro A few cock tails -lhake him change his mind about the ball, and he attends with Conchita, choosing Tarzan leopardskin costume. A few more cocktails help persuade him to do an hilarious adagio dance with Conchita-and the ball breaks up in a riot.
 Of course there's more to the story than that. Much more. Among other things, Will serves as cupid in his daughters romance with a young man his wife doesn't approve of. And there's a sur prise ending that can't be tipped off in advance.

 Little Miss Marker latest fea- ture starring little Shirley Tenn pie, with Adolph Menjou and oth- CT prominent stars in the cast, will be shown at the Capitol for the last times tonight.

BEAUTY AND
 TALENT VIE
 IN NEW FILM
Search for Beauty Com ingSunday to Coliseum
 Is E un Riot

The leading beauties of the Eng lish-speaking world parade in riot of fun and spectacle in Para mounts Search for Beauty" which opens Sunday at the Coliseum Theatre.
 Featured in the picture are the thirty perfect young men and wo- men chosen from among the 176, ,00O contestants in every English-speak- ing country of the world in Para mounts quest for beauty and new talent.
 The performance of six of these newcomers in the picture was so outstanding that Paramount gave them seven-year contracts.
 Search for Beauty" embraces a serious theme handled in an anus ing manner to provide grand en- tertainment with James Gleason and Robert Armstrong, and the ar ray of pulchritude provided by the contesants, it also brings the fore number of Paramounts new CT contract players in performance that point to stardom.
 The story deals with the att tempts of slick promoters to put over a racket which finally back fires on them. Armstrong and Miss Michael are released from prison after serving terms for an oil swindle. He finally prevails upon her to join him in a health and-bcauty racket, to cash in on the current Olympic champions as unwilling fronts for the racket.
 The remainder of the plot deals with the conflict between the champions and their promoter as- sociates and leads to an unusual climax.

NEWSPAPER IS BACK GROUND OF .UPTOWNFEATURE
Honor of the Press with Edward ]. Nugget, Rita
 LaRoy Opens Sunday

Honor of the Press latest news paper feature which opens at the Uptown Theatre Sunday. is said to be worthy successor to such hits as Front Page" Gentlemen of the Press" and Five Star Final" which also depicted various phases of the Fourth Estate.
 It is called a straightforward plausible story, showing newspapers in their true light, and not as they have 5een picturized in some of the predecessors. The editorial rooms and the linotype room, the coop housing the heart throbs col umn and the press room, are shown as they actually exist, not like figment of some ones imagination.
 The plot tells of the grab of the Clarion by a smart crook, and his utilization of the sheet as a tip sheet for his band of murderers and crooks. He is smart enough to keep 99 per cent of the paper read able simply using a trick device in his editorial column to carry his messages.
 In the end, the ruse is discov- cred by a young cub reporter whom the publisher had fired because he suspected the boy was getting wise to h.s real racket The youngster. aided by his fiance, sticks to his task of running down all clues un- til he finally stumbles upon the answer.
 Some one at the Mayfair studios evidently knows his newspapers. and news men, AM the casting job is perfect. Young Eddie Nugent, of the famous acting family, plays a cub reporter to perfection. Rita LaRoy is splendidly cast as the conductor of the Heart Throbs" calumn; Russell Simpson couldn't be excelled as the hard boiled City Editor, nor could Wheeler Oak man, as cold blooded publisher. Others in the cast, Dorothy Gull liver, John Ince, Franklin Parker and Reginald Simpson, are ap- propriately cast, and handle their smaller parts in competent fash ion.

That Veto Is Alarming

INDEED it seems to me that the whole balance OF
executive legislative and judicial forces swings
out of plumb as long the court has the power to
set aside the clearly expressed will Of the representa-
tives of the people The Presidents veto power IS
triflng in comparison to that held by the nine old
men. To override their may" it is necessary in
many cases to amend the Constitution. And in at
least one case Supreme Court decision was large
" responsible for a Civil
Moreover the fact that judicial power Is greater
than executive or legislative strength in our scheme
of things has far reaching tendencies. In Congress
and in state legislatures many bills are strangled
at the start because some awyer-ike fellow advises
his comrades sternly that the measure before them
is unconstitutional.
This volunteer interpreter Of clauses ana OF Sec
tons may be quite wrong and even SO the mere
suggestion of back-robed veto can cast terror into
the assembly. It seems to me that sometimes this
amateur Interpretation is pSychoogically sort OF
vigilante activity. There is a curious notion that
all rights to which America is accustomed would be
torn into little fragments if it not for the fact
that we possess a written Constitution jealousy
guarded by nine old men. But England seems to
rnuddle through in the matter of protecting human
liberties in spite of absence Of such institutions
It is nv argument that on the whole the swollen
powers of the Supreme Court do not serve to pro-
mote law and order. On the contrary as in the gold
case its deliberations may be disturbing. Objection
lies only against the veto power which the court
assumed good many years ago, but to the belated
nature of this nay saying

Your Health
by DR.. MORRIS FISHBEIN-

NEW persons realize the Importance of clothing
Il in relationship to health and disease. Human
beings living in isolated places under warm cond-
tions do without clothing ordinarily, but they
must wear some coverings, if only for the sake Of
modesty.
From what we know of the value of sunlight for
the human body, there is more healthfuness pro-
duced from exposing the complete body to sunlight
than exposing all except portions that might be
covered by breech clout diaper.
However, under conditions of winter such as
exist in most of the United States nudism is neither
comfortable heathful
The disadvantages of housing and clothing lie in
the fact that they keep the skin away from fresh
air and sunlight hence it is advisable for those who
are too constantly covered to obtain occasional
dose of artificial sunlight and, by suitable bathing
and airing, to keep the skin in good condition.
you should remember that the ultraviolet rays
Il of the sun, when taken in excess, can do as
much harm, if not more harm, than is developed by
avoiding sunlight altogether.
We lose water from the body through the skin.
The body is self-regulating mechanism and adjusts
itself to the loss Of heat. It is advisable therefore,
at all to next to the skin porous,
pliable material which allows rapid removal of mois
ture from the surface of the body.
In cold weather, this first covering may be COW
cred by additional clothing with as many layers as
necessary for warmth.
For the coolest weather. any material such as
leather which permits air to pass through only very
slowly, makes the best body covering
TN winter, it Is especially important not to wear
i tight clothing which will interfere with circua-
ton of the blood and cramp the body movements.
Eskimos and other persons who live in the Arctic
zone soft, pliable moccasins instead of the stiff
heavy shoes worn in the temperate zone
While it is generally conceded that men dress
less hygenically than women because their clothing
is heavy and permits Of less circulation of air. and
because they tight collars carriers and belts the
clothing worn by women has other hazards.
Womens shoes probably the least substan-
tial and least healthful of any garments worn
The second complaint about women's clothing is
the fact that their dresses usually are made of mate
rial not easily cleaned washed, and because Of
are in almost constant contact with the skin.
Investigations have shown definitely the accumu-
lation of bacteria such garments and explain the
reason for infection Of the skin on the backs Of

THE probabilities are fairly good that before
Il many years have elapsed, the world will be
using a new calendar. The model which seems
to be gaining most favor is the 12-month equalquar
ter plan calendar called the world calendar by its
proponents.
This calendar seems to have certain advantages
over the proposed 13-mOnth calendar, although the
hackers of that latter scheme refuse to admit any
such thing
In the world calendar there are four equal quar-
ters each consisting of three months having, reSpec
lively 81 80 and 80 days. Thus for example, January
begins on a Sunday and has 81 days 1t is followed
by February with 80 days and March with 80 days.
March 80 falls a Saturday and ends the first
quarter. The scheme is then repeated starting with
Sunday. April l.
But these four quarters only account for 1854 days
Hence an extra day must be put in after Dec. 80.
This is known Year-end Day or Dec. Y and has
no other designation. 1t is day between Saturday,
Dec 80 and Sunday Jan. 1. Similarly in leap years,
a day known as Leap-Year Day or June L is in
serted after June 80.
The World Calendar Association, organized in
America in 1880 now has $500 members. Similar
associations have been organized in other nations OF
the world.
NEAJOR objections to the present calendar are
wi pointed out by the association. These are:
The calendar is never the same from year to
year
Succeeding years never oegin on the same day
of the week.
Each year it is necessary to use a new calendar.
Holidays constantly shift from year to year.
Dates of the month fall on different week days
in successive years
Months in successive years have not the same
number of various week days nor the same arrange
ment of weeks.
THE association regards a change from the pres
Il ent calendar to the 13-month calendar how
ever, leap from the frying pan to the fire. 1t
emphasizes the impoSSibility of dividing 13-month
year into satisfactory quarters and cites the diff
cuties Of businesses changing over their accounting
systems from 12-month to a 13-month basis
One Of the chief arguments in some persons
minds perhaps. against the 13month calendar would
be the fact that every month would possess Fri
day. the 18th And what would superstitouSly in
clined person do on Friday, the 18th, in the 18th
month?
The really serious argument against a 13-month
calendar is that IS is prime number whereas u is
easily Invisible into halves, thirds quarters and
