Movie Revues
"HOUSEKEEPER'S DAUGHTER'
is FEATURED AT CAROLINA

One Of the gayest and most ex-
citing motion pictures to reach the
screen within recent months was
unreeled yesterday at the Carolina
Theatre under the title of "The
Housekeeper's Daughter" Pro-
duced by Hal Roach with a capt.
tally chosen cast headed by Joan
Bennett, Adolphe Menjou, Peggy
Wood, John Hubbard, Donald
Meek, William Gargan and Lillian
Bond, the new film is a fast-mov-
ing, lively romance, smartly fash
toned to contain all the elements
of entertainment.
Miss Bennett, portraying the al
Turing housekeeper's daughter,
leaves her underworld boy friend
flat to return to her mother, who
works for the socially prominent
Randall family. Learning that the
family has left town for the sum-
mer, the heroine is pleasant,
surprised to discover that the
young and handsome scion of the
family, played by John Howard
one of the screens new leading
men, has decided to stay in town
and brave the summer heat. Young
Randall is determined to brea.i in
to newspaper work and he &C.
composites this feat very easily
by using his fathers influence.
Aided and abetted by the house
keepers daughter, he attaches
himself to a murder mystery and
from then on the new film pro-
ceeds at a terrific pace, introduce
ing merry mix-ups and unexpect-
ed complications. High comedy is
blended with rich romantic inter-
ludes, and the gayest scenes of
the film revolve around a gang
of underworld hoodlums who are
scared off by a fireworks celebra-
ton.
A pretty color picture called
Mountain Ears" and an action
picture, '(Royal Rodeo," together
with current News, form the short
program.

About As Survivors Rescued
By Another Holland
Amerika Line Ship

AMSTERDAM, Feb. 12.- R -
The sinking of the Holland-Amerika
lines CESSATION freighter Burger

About As survivors, members of
the crew and passengers, were
rescued by the Edam, another Hol-
fundamental line freighter. (The
company's report on the rescue re-
ferred to passengers as we'll as
crew but the reference to passen-
gers was not explained. 1t was un-
derstood in New York the Burger
dix had not carried passengers.)
The line reported the sinking to
the Netherlands government, which
will await an official report from
Captain Scriwanek before deciding
on any action. The government

TO ELIMINATION

ATTENTION TO ELIMINATION
 Many correspondents, comment ing on the fact that little medicine is suggested in this column, tell me that they, too, think people take too much medicine and then explain that they have found that if one eats the right kind of food and pays attention to elimination he generally keeps pretty well.
 If 1t were only to carp I'd let 1t pass, but for health's sake must take issue with the latter part of the program. By paying attention to elimination, I take 1t. these cor- respondents mean keeping on hand physic of some kind and taking some of 1t whenever they think elimination is not what 1t should be. 7
 Tn the first place, elimination is not the word for 1t. Defecation is the word; the waste matter ex- pelled by defecation consists chief ly of food residues and water and enormous numbers of harmless bacteria and small traces of sub- stances that were eliminated or ex- creted hours ago.
 In the next place it Is far better as a rule of health or hygiene to pay no attention at all to defeca- ton other than to heed the call when 1t comes.
 There may be indications for lax atives or cathartics in the absence of a physician but, honestly, I can't think of one offhand. Certainly, there is no sane reason or excuse for plying the alimentary tract with physic of any kind as a regular habit or even as part of the treat ment of minor Illness or threat ened illness.
 This Is not just crazy theory. I prescribed and administered plenty of cathartics in my early years of practice. Then I broke the habit and thereafter patients got along as well or a little better without the constant nagging. l used to think an occasional dose of this or that laxative advisable and took # myself. But l broke that habit too and in the past twenty years have taken nothing of the sort. I have found that the less you take of such medicine the less you imagine you need it.
 After I had been worrying along for five or ten years without physic wrote book--or anyway 8 book let about it. The booklet has only 36 pages, but whale of title, tc wit. "Constipation Habit and Colon Hygiene; for copy irlclose ten centi and 1-ct-stamped envelope bearing your address.
 People who resort to physic ra- bitually or frequently must remem- Der they not only interfere with di- gestiye processes which are essen tial for health but in many izl- stances suffer injurious by-effects from the drugs in the medicine. My advise is DON'T pay atten- ton to eelimination"-no that you know 1t isn't elimination it ought to be easier for you to keep your mind off from 1t. Instead you might pay more attention to your breathing now, there's function which is probably susceptible of considerable improvement, if you haven't yet learned How to Breathe.
