Burcher Studio
Settled In
New Quarters

A new building was added to the
Coolidge Business District when
Arthur Burcher finished his build
ing near the Natural Gas Company
offices. Mr.. Burcher is a real Coo
lidge Booster and all the material
and labor that went into the build
ing was secured right at home. This
is a practise that could be well
adopted by many of us who let a
few dollars slip between our fingers
by purchasing things away from
Coolidge. Mr.. Bureher doesn't try
to compete with cheap photography
but when you want something that
you can be proud of and treasure
for a long time he can give give
you that class of work. He has had
years of experience in photography
and with the assistance of Mrs.
Burcher he can serve you with the
type Of work that you can't equal
in much bigger towns.

Dalton II. Cole
Addresses Rotary

Dalton H. Cole of the Cole &
Maud Mortuary gave a vocational
talk before the Rotary Club at
their luncheon held last Thursday
noon. He chose as his subject
embalming and gave a very in
tereSting account of how the ART
was used by the early Egyptians.
They resorted to embalming as 4
means Of preserving the body for
the return of the soul. Embalming
was first used in this country dur
ing the civil war. The embalming
fluid which was formerly used con-
tanned arsenic and has been dis
continued in practically all of the
States. The embalming fluid used
at present is a formaldehyde solu-
ton and is resorted to for three
reasons. First for Sanitation and
Disinfecting purposes, second for
preservation. and third, for cos
metic reasons. Mr.. Cole said that
Climatic conditions had a lot to do !
with preserving of the body, and
recited a case where Florence
Mortuary had kept body for 10
years before burial took pace.
The out Of town guests present
were Mr.. Albert Lent, Flour Manu- |
facturer of Tucson and Tucson
w. w. Lockhard, Mesa
and Mgr. of Wholesale
Petroleum Products; and the Coo
lidge guests being Mr.. c l.. Kin
worth member of the Grammar |
School Board, and Mr.. A. L. Bart |
lett, Mgr. of the Farm Credit .
Bureau. 1t was announced that in !
the near future that the Rotary |
Club would be hosts to their wives
at a big anniversary party.

Paving Streets Not
Expensive To
Property Owners

Mr.. Karl Payne called our atten-
ton to the fact that Casa Grande
has secured the paving Of many
streets at a cost Of about so cents
per running foot to the property
owners and that Superior Is now
having many streets paved and
curbs constructed at the same
cost. Coolidge property owners can
secure paving at the same cost and
when this fact is known no doubt
many would like to take advantage
Of this, and have their streets
paved. 1t Is necessary for the
property owners on any particular
street to first sign an agreement to
furnish paving material at the ap-
proximate cost of so cents per run
ming foot, and present this agree
ment to the Board of Supervisors.
Detail of the arrangements can be
obtained from Francis Curtis, or
Louis Fiscel. 1t certainly would
give Coolidge citified appearance
to have our streets paved and when
you think of the convience that
paved street offers over our pres
ent dirt roads it Is something to
really get excited over. More VIII
be said about this as soon as we
learn added information.

Benefits Coming

Workers. who exhausted their job
insurance rights in the early months
of 1888 may now have additional
benefits coming to them, according
to statements released today by the
Arizona Unemployment Compensa-
ton Commission.
A person receiving unemployment
compensation is limited to a maxi
mum of IA times his weekly benefit
amount within any one benefit
year" it was stated. When a year
has elapsed from the date of an
individuals first benefit check,
however, he may again be entitled
TO benefits.
This new eligibility depends on
whether the claimant has been en-
ployed during that year for a
sufficient period to establish proper
wage credits, and otherwise meets
the requirements.
The commissions announcement
said that job insurance is intended
primarily for the normally EN-
ployed" worker, and the work re-
quirement is necessary to prove his
connection with the labor market.
1t stated that Unemployment COM
pensation is not intended for the
"chronically unemployed
Claims for unemployment com
pensation are made at offices OF
the State Employment Service. A
contant effort to find new work
for the claimant is carried on during
the waiting weeks and throughout
his period of unemployment. Ii
suitable employment is offered the
claimant, he must accept it in lieu
of benefit payments.

G.B. Shaw Himself Picked Wendy Hitler For Part In Pygmali0n, and a New Star Was Made
But New York Air Got Her a Husband
BY MILTON BRoNNER NEA Service Stan Correspondent

London Winter helped spring hme, when e2-yeaf-old George Ber- hard Shaw boosted 73-year-pld Wendv Killer for the star female psrt in the film version of his cel- ehratcd play, "pygmaiion," and thus gave her the chance to show that she was 0 screen star Of tho first magnitude, with all the glitter Ing prizes that implies.
 It was Just the finishing touch to e real life yarn which intimates, but beats the script of Klany Q mov- ie. You get tho context- white- haired genius helps ambitious girl, girl makes good, girl has met boy, girl marries boy girl overwhelmed with tempting offers, but hesitates because home comes before career, cts. etc.
 HERE'S MISS KILLERS
 REAL STORY
 Even as straight piece of re- porting, the story of Miss Hiller is good stuff:
 She was born 2s years ago in Bramhali up in Cheshire, where her father was in business and her mother Q painter of more than or- dinary talent. When the girl grew up. like many another high school kid she became stage-struck.
 So she was soon found playing tiny parts with the Manchester Repertory Theater. She had cer- tain assets. She is tall, slender, faif-haired. She has c very pleas ant speaking voice. She k not 90 beautiful as some of Hollywood's glamor girls, but there is charm in her face and intelligence and Q mobility that permits her to regis. ter all kinds of human emotions. DOOMED TO PLAY
 HOUsENAIDS
 But the manager of the Man. chester outfit made her do the usual monotonous round of the be- eisner. Wendy Hitler began to be- lieve young people could only act as maids. She played French and German, Irish and Cockney, Cor. nisl and Yorkshire, Lancashire and Wiltshire maids. It almost made her sick of the whole busi- ness but it taught her . lot about dialects and phonetics.
 Then one day fate came knock ing at the door. His name was Ronald Cow, Q Lancashire school- teacher. Walter Greenwood had written c successful novel Of the poor colled Love on the Dole" It had had c surprising success,
The Waterbury Democrat., 1939-02-09

as 6 member of the company which every summer gives 6 series of Shaw plays at Malvern. She played the part of Eliza Doolittle in "pyg- malion" and of Joan of Arc in "St, Joan"
 CAST BY KID
 SHAW HIMSELF
 Gabriel Pascal, film producer, just about that time did what nobody else had succeeded in dolng--he persuaded Shaw to allow him to make film versions of his plays, The first one selected was "pygmalion, T Pascal told Shaw he had no trouble casting tho leading male part, Les- lie Howard, by his acting ability, his lambent intelligence, his looks, was just . natural" But he did not know where to find his Eliza,
 q do," said Shaw. "Her first name is Wendy and her last name is Hitler and my last word is cast her for the part"
 So said, so done. And many an afternoon Shaw came out to the Pinewood studios to see his pro- tege act. The film has made her famous. She has received offers oi long. time contracts both from Hol- lywood and the leading English studios, She has signed none of them. She wants to choose her own roles and to do this, feels she must remain independent. Besides, she is not acting at present, Does not ex- pect to until next July

Authorities Seek
 Infected Brushes
Fear of Anthrax Prompts State Officials to Broadcast
 Warning to All Cities Shipment Traced to Conn.

Recently information was receiv- cd from the U. 6. Public Health Service that shaving brushes of c lot marked "332 Imperial Japan sterillzed" had been found infected with anthrax. The brushes in Ques- ton were imported from Japan in october, 1887, While the importers records did not show that any of them hAd been sold to wholesalers in Connecticut, the information fur- nished by the Public Health Service was sent to all health officers in Connecticut by the State Depart inent of Health in Q circular letter dated January 90, 1899. On Satur- day, February {, 1899 three brushes Made in Japan" and bearing the lot number indicated were received in the office of the State Depart- inent of Health from the health of- ficer of Clinton. These brushes were promptly sent to the labora- tory for examination for anthrax. From telephone conversation with Doctor Wellman, health officer of Clinton, 1t was learned that the store where the brushes were found had recently changed hands, that the former owner wes away and could not be reached at the time in order to ascertain the source of tho brushes.
 However, since brushes in this in- fected lot have been found in one Connecticut store, 1t is possible that they may Do found in others. Additional information concerning the matter Is contained in press release sent out for publication Jan- uary 20, 1889, by the New York city department of health after confer. ence with Public Health Service of- ficials which reads in part as fol- lows:
 Anthrax is c severe infectious di- sease that primarily affects cattle, sheep and other animals. Man may contract the disease by contact with such animals or by handling animal products such as hides, wool and bristles that have come from infected animals.
 Recently c case of anthrax fin North Dakota was traced to a Jap- aiiese shaving brush. Ill the study of this case anthrax baciili wag found on e number of similar shaw ing brushes from the same lot both in the laboratory of the National Institute of Health at Washington and in the laboratory of the New York City Department of Health.
 "The brushes were imported from Japan in 1897 and distributed from New York. the shipments, so far as the present Investigation has gone, being made to points outside of the
