spencer Tracy Plays Role
Without Makeup EX-
cept in Prologue

Once more illustrating the fact
hat truth is stranger and more
lramatic than fiction, Edison, the
Man." filmization Of the career of
Thomas A. Edison opens next
r ursday at the Maryland Thea
ire with Spencer Tracy in the
starring role.
Biographies have proved among
the most popular offerings in Hol-
ywOOd history during the past
eew years and the story of Edison
is replete with dramatic events
which are SO thrilling they might
be considered the product of a
fiction writer's mind. In fact, so
many amazing events and SO much
intriguing humanness were found
n the inventors life that Metro
GCldwyn-Mayer's greatest job was
in selecting the mosting entertain
ing and weaving them into a dy-
mamie story.
The picture affords Tracy with
yet another great real-life role to
add to the others with which he
has won acting acclaim. AS in
the portrnyaAs of Father Flana-
gan in Boys Town." Henry NJ

Tracy plays the Edison role Who'll
ly without makeup until, in brief
prologue and epilogue, he portrays
the beloved inventor at the age of
80.

MAYOR SWEENEY SPEAKS
AT w. C.. 7. u. MEETING

Mayor Richard H. Sweeney was
the principal speaker at the regu-
lar monthly meeting of the Ha-
gerstown w. C. T. U. The topic
was: Local Social Conditions
And How These Conditions Can
Be Metz" Mayor Sweeney stress
ed the Importance of the proper
home conditions, proper training
of the youth and in the absence
of these conditions spoke of the
good work being done by the Y.
M. G.. A, Salvation Army, Volun-
teers of America, Boys Police
Club Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, rec
reatiOn centers ana parks under
proper supervision, etc. He did
not consider crime conditions in
Haerstown and Washington cOun-
ty particularly bad, in view of the
recent criminal docket. He defin-
ed two types of law violators,
those committing misdemeanors
and those of a felonious nature
Examples, he said, went far in
shaping the destiny of the youth
of our land. Churches, he declar-
ed, were fine, but a boy or girl
gets certain good teaching on Sun
day = one day out of the week =
but is left to bad Influences,
perhaps, the other six days. He
scored vulgar magazines and mo-
vies.

To Avoid Burns

Remember the old proverb
about not adding fuel to flames. 1t
has a very special bearing in this
connection. Keep your fuel oil
cans at a very safe distance from
your stove = outside the kitchen,
if possible. Incidentally, keep all
matches, candles, lighted lamps,
entirely out of the reach of young
children.
To Avoid Mixing Poisons
'Have a special place for any
supplies that may be source Of
danger. Don't keep rat poison,
plant sprays, poisonous silver
polish, or any other equally dan
gerous household supplies, side by
side with baking powder, pancake
flour, salt and sugar containers,
or any other food supply.
Keep all dangerous supplies in
separate place = not in the
kitchen cabinet. And see that they
are carefully labelled. Replace Ia
bells when they fall off, and dis
pose carefully, of the containers,
when the contents have been used.
"And don't forget: Keep every
one of these things out of the
reach of children"
