Solves Heat
Problem

Owners of small homes are
often sorely tried by the heating
problem. With that in mind the
makers of ESQ Motor Fuel have
designed and engineered a low
cost oil burner that sells at an
attractive figure and solves the
question of adequate heat.
The ESQ Oil Burner will be
on display in the lobby of the
Rialto Theater at the Herald
Times Cooking School and Mrs.
Northcross will explain its ad-
vantageS from the stage.
Several years of research and
development have gone into the
production of a small unit which
will adequately serve for heat
ing purposes. One of the fea-
lures of the Burners dependable
ity is steady electric ignition.
There is no intermittent turn
ing off and on-the ignition is
on all the time the burner is
operating-Which makes for a
safe type of ignition.

Thorough Cleaning
Saves Rugs, Carpets

to remove the dir which un-
avoidablv becomes imbedded in
the fabric.
The cleaner operates most
effectively if run in straight
lines lengthwise or crosSwiSe Of
the rug. In this way the rows
of tufts are best separated to
allow the dirt to be removed.
Rugs of certain weaves should
always be cleaned with length
wise strokes. The operator can
usually tell which way the best
cleaning action is being OBJ
tanned. and can always follow
the same method with the rug.
Cleaning Backs
Slow eady motion gets bet
ter results with less energy than
q quick hurried motion.
1t is good idea occasionally
to turn rugs upside down and
use the vacuum cleaner on the
back. Heavy dirt loosened in
this way drops to the floor
where it can easily be swept up.
With scatter rugs the process is
quite simple.
One rruch too frequent cause
of poor cleaning is dirty dust
bag. Dirt in the bag checks the
air flow and cuts down on ef-
fective cleaning action. The
bag should always be cmptied
after each Use. Fairly often the
bag should be turned wrong side
ont and brushed well.

Keeping rugs and carpets
clean not only improves their
appearance but also lengthens
their life. Usually they are not
SO clean as they look. Lint, dust.

the surface and send the neat

Short Cut Method

Because really good Waffles
are a 10y forever you want to
be extra sure that yours will
turn out just right-specially
with guests waiting to enjoy
them. And you want waffle
making to be quick, too.
So We suggest a short cut
method" that makes success a
little surer.
This is the use of a fine salad
oil for your wafflcS. Making
waffIes with an oil gives you
these advantages. You don't
have to melt a shortening. You
just pour the oil to measure, and
pour to mix, which is both
quicker and more accurate.
Your waffle batter will be
smooth and so lovely that you
just know your waffles are going
to be specially good.
In addition the very light dell
cate goodness Of salad oil means
mighty good taste in the WaffleS,
50 that men literally devour
-nem and even shy ladies ask
for Just one more"
Try this simple recipe that
uses this new method. And re-
member to make waffles more
often, because folks enjoy them
"all around the clock"

Damage Prevented

Bits of sharp sand and grit
in the depths of the rug become
tiny knives, cutting fibers that
are pressed against them by the
constant tread of people or the
moving of furniture. Often use
of the vacuum cleaner is blamed
for this carpet wear, when
actually the appliance only
combed out the loose pile which
had already been cut off. Reg

PAGING PROFESSOR WALKER
 HALL

Newspaper clipping without a date (sent to me in 1929):
 PROVES ARSENIC THEORY
 To prove his contention against the popular belief that arsenic pois- oning can be absorbed through the skin, Professor Walker Hill, the dis tinguished English toxic logist, faced death recently. He rubbed a fatal dose of arsenic over his hand and waited half hour for the re- suit. Nothing happened, so he re- peated the experiment and proved his theory. s
 The item was printed in a promi- nent Canadian paper. Next time l call on the editor of that paper I'm going to try and get a lead which will help me to find Professor Wal ker Hall and shake the hand that was rubbed with the fatal dose of arsenic. Also I'm going to try and find out what theory the professor proved.
 Even if I never find Professor Hall and satisfy myself that the experi- ment did him no harm, I'm willing, and ready at any time to lend, say, one-half of my skin, for any such experiment with any poison that does not burn or destroy the skin, under the control of any reputable scientific investigator or group of in- vestigators-provided I nday have complete control of the ventilation during the experiment. so that l may be assured I shall not inhale any poison.
 Oh, yes, there is one other con- dition on which I should insist, and that is, whatever the outcome of the experiment or test, we shall agree in advance that an uncenSored report of it shall be published; and if I am made i'll or poisoned will concede that my attitude or teaching of the impermeability of the skin was wrongv and harp no more on the point, but on the other hand, if the medicine, drug or poison applied fails to produce any appreciable ef- feet on me, the authorities" who maintain that the skin absorbs cer- tain chemicals, substances or poll sons will cease and desist from such teaching and acknowledge that their notion about that was based on in accurate observation and slovenly thinking.
 Once some leading medical men" in a metropolitan center assured their friend, an editor, that I was all wrong about absorption through the skin and suggested that if I'd rub some belladonna ointment on my back I'd soon see how sick and dizzy I'd be. I offered to come to the place the anonymous medical men might designate and submit to the test at their hands-and to make due public apology if exper- fenced any effect from the applica- tion of the ointment But the news

POLl'S

Reproducing the picturesque campus and many of the imposing buildings of America's famous West Point played an important part in the filming of "Rosalie", the super lavish new musical which brings Nelson Eddy and Eleanor Powell to the Loew-Poli screen today for a four-day engagement. "Rosalie" IS described as even out-shining "The Great zigfeld," in its spectacular brilliance of cast and production values.
 w. s. Van Dyke, II, who directed "Rosalie," is famed for his insist ence on accuracy in reproducing famous landmarks. Accordingly, even the chorus boys in the musical were drilled for weeks in the regul- lation West Point maneuvers.
 Nelson Eddy, himself, took special military training from veteran army officer in order that his acting as a West Point football hero and cadet might be authentic. For a period of four months the famous baritone singer took orders and joined in practice drill. Alternating this with hours of singing, Eddy had little time left for social activities.
 On the shoulders of Miss Powell and Ray Bolger, two of the coun- try's finest tap dancers, fell the privilege of distorting the military precision taught in West Point. Bol- ger gives an exhibition of his bril- liant comic dancing. Miss Powell, disguised as cadet, teaches the amazed troopers some new and very fancy maneuvers while drums are humping and trumpets blaring.
 Many West Point campus scenes were reproduced in fullest detail for the picture. Studio expects made the trek across the country to photo graph and measure important set tings. Hence, when Eddy and Miss Powell are seen talking to each other at the top of 8 knoll, it is shown as faithful copy of the famous Filtration Walk. Other scenes are similarly authentic.
 The second big hit on this pro- gram is "Quick Money, starring Fred Stone with Dorothy Moore and Gordon Jones.
 Watch for the sensation of the year coming to Loew's Poli soon. The most talked about picture of de- cade-"The Hurricane.
