Great Entertainer CT Goes Back Thirty Years
By GEORGE TICKER

NEW YORK. June 9.-From time to time this correspondent has de- tailed the activities of Billy Rose in his ceaseless quest of new ideas in entertainment. We have drawn chiding letters from others by set ting this lad up as perhaps the most ingenious and certainly the most unpredictable of the Manhat tan producers And there was no dearth of fact to build these stories on. For Billy not only sat up nights thinking he got real ideas.
 Take Crazy Quilt No musical ever made the money the quilt" drew at the box office in tank towns and in major cities all over this country Then he came back to New York, started the French Casino form of enter tainment, that is, the cabaret-res- taurant, where you dine at tables while the actors do their stuff. :. This was known as the Casino de Farce and later came Billy Roses Music Hall

 After that one came along I was talking to him and, not knowing what to expect, I inquired, What next, Billy?'
 I'm going to do musical come dy on water" was the astonishing reply. Well, he did just that, at Cleveland. It was the aqua cade, the hit of the Cleveland eX- position.
 Meanwhile, down in Texas, he was handling the midway for the Texas exposition at Fort Worth. They asked Billy back the sec ond year to put on his fiesta.
 And about that time all the New York producers were going Billy Rose" The night clubs, I mean. They were striving for the un- usual, the bizarre. They want ed to startle people. The French Casino was a great hit. Then came the International Casino. There were all sorts of innovations and new twists to after dark en- tertainment until, finally, every body wondered where the thing would end, and, in particular, what Billy Rose would try next.
 Did he fox 'em! Yes, honey, he did. A trail-blazer in new-fangled ideas, with his Jumbos and fiestas and Casa Mananas, Billy took one lcok at the streamlined entertain ment with a through looking glass complex, and pulled the neat est trick of his career. He did the very last thing any body ever thought he would do He simply dipped back 30 years and put on a straight vaudeville show.

Falls and Burns Most Frequent Accidents

your neighborhood shops can't sup ply this product. ask one of the merchants to investigate 1t for you.
 Chimneys, fiues, furnaces and stoves should be thoroughly cleaned and inspected. Don't rely on your own Judgment, but get an expert to check the condition of heating equipment. He may discover loose connections, worn parts. faulty in sulation, and other defects which have entirely escaped you.
 Check Gas Stoves, Too
 Gas stoves, usually in constant use, need frequent cleaning and ad- justing. Is your stove provided with a vent to carry off unburned bases? Are the burners adjusted to prevent the production of deadly carbon monoxide gas? Are the petcocks tight enough 50 that they can not be turned accidentally? The gas company will gladly send an inspec- tor who'll answer these questions and arrange for necessary repairs. Remember that the burners of gas stove should be kept clean by washing them in boiling water and soda at least once month.
 Don't overlook the bathroom, for it's frequently the scene of painful accidents. If the tub isn't equipped with a handhold, you can easily have one of sturdy wood or metal screwed firmly into the wall. Place 1t low enough 50 that it me be grasped easily when getting out Of a tub bath. A small rubber mat may be placed in the tub to give secure footing-a particularly useful device when there are elderly peo- pie in the family. See that soap dishes are conveniently at hand. and that the bather doesn't have to lean perilously off-balance to get his towel.

PAINFUL SPURS ON HEEL BONE

PAINFUL SPURS ON HEEL BONE
 A reader tells how he suffered with formation of bony spurs un- der the heel bone-limping, aching, swollen feet. He consulted divers chiropractors, shoestore foot "spe- cialists", free clinics, finally went to an orthopedic hospital. There young doctor advanced the opin- ion that the trouble was due to heel spurs, and they made an X- ray negative which showed the doctor was right.
 Very well. What was the next thing? Should the patient proudly flap his wings and crows? The idea may be funny to casual readers, but it is not at all funny to the patient or to his dependents.
 Women frow or develop these painful, disabling heel spurs as fre- quently as men do, particularly women whose occupation keeps them on their feet long hours. Any one who happens to grow these osteophytes (can you beat us docs finding imposing names for conditions we don't understand very well?) may indulge his or her gam bling propensity as freely as this reader did, by consulting every con- ceivable irregular or unqualified practitioner about 1t before taking any serious step to find out what the trouble is and what should be done about 1t.
 The young doctor in the ortho- pedic hospital advised nothing could be done about it except to wear soft horseshoe pads of sponge rubber under the heels. But by now the patient naturally felt equal if not superior in knowledge and he was not satisfied. So he bethought, him of a medical acquaintance the superintendent of a large hos pital, and casually dropped into the super's office. The super listened to the history and bade the visitor to stick around while.
 In the hospital were doctors who know that something can and should be done for the victim of heel spurs whose working capacity is threatened or destroyed by the disability. The spurs should be sur gically removed. This may be done under local anesthesia or under general anesthcsia. It brings im- mediate and permanent relief.
 Our reader, however, conducted his own researches and finally de- yised what he calls Heather cor ners in the heels of my shoes," and wearing these in hsi shoes he found such relief that he was able to re- Sume work, and in the course of year the spurs ceased to give any trouble, even with ordinary shoes.
 This man is, perhaps purposely, vague about the Heather corners" to which he ascribes his recovery, so can give no more definite in- formation about them-the man evidently regards his device as an invention.
 Usually horseshoe shape saddle or pad of thick felt or soft leather fixed in the heel of the shoe so as to support the heel all around ex- cept across the front, is most com fortable.

Glorying Yourself
By Alicia Hart
NEA Service Stan Writer

Suntan oils and lotions, cooling colognes, deodorants and non-per- spirants are the beauty preparations most in the lime-light these days The woman who cares about her complication uses a suntan prepar- ation conscientiously even after she has fairly dark coat of tan an.. all danger of getting sunburn Is past And-because she's fastidi- ous person-she applies cologne lav- ishly after each bath, keeps an- other bottle handy in the office and never forgets the importance of de- odorants.
 New this season are pads sat- urated with various beauty aids. There are air-tight jars of little pads that have been soaked in nail polish remover, and one pad contains enough liquid to remove the polish from ten nails. With jar of these on hand, all danger of spilling the remover on the furni- ture or of having to bother to sat- urate cotton pads yourself is elim- mated.
 You can buy a jar of suntan oil pads, too. Simply carry the jar to the beach with your, then rub one of the pads on arms, face and shoul- ders as often as necessary. Two pads contain just about enough oil for one application.
 Newest of all, however, are bottles of pads that have been soaked in an efficacious anti-perspirant. After bath, simply pat the skin under both arms with one of the pads, then discard 1t.
 Non-perspirant and deodorant preparations seem to get better and better and at the same time simpler to use. Nowadays, it's an easy mat ter for any woman to find one that is efiicacious, involving no compli- cated steps.
 For instance, a powder that dis solves immediately when sprin- kled on moist skin, checks per- spiration for days and days. A liquid - an old favorite seems to dry more quickly than ever be- fore. The manufacturers of 1t now feature cream nt's of cam phore ice consistency which is just as efficient as their liquid but little simpler to apply.

 Well, darn it all, I won't have another chance, either, Mom. Can't you fix 1t up with her?"
 Certainly" we say. "Go right along and enjoy your trip. But re- member, some day when you are in business, no one is going to let you off go easily about promises Once you learn to put your pleasure first, and l notice you often do, you are just about done for, son"
 Such an incident may not be the turning point in growing child's life. Things of this sort hap pen often. A boy or girl will rush to headquarters for permission to re- lease themselves from promise. It takes the responsibility of moral de- cision from their own shoulders and then they feel justified. They should learn to take their own loads and make their own decisions. Their moral sense is thus developed.
