Margaret Wycherly
Signed for Film

Margaret Wycherly, who has been
a leading actress of the American
stage since the turn of the century,
has been signed by Warner Bros. for
an important role in Sergeant
York." which will be produced
under the supervision Of Hal B.
Wallis and Jesse Lasky.
The character she will portray is
Mrs. Mary York, the mother of the
Tennessee mountaineer who was the
outstanding hero of the American
Army in the first World War. Mrs
York is still alive and still lives in
the little mountain cabin where her
famous son was born.
Contributing largely to the de-
cision to cast Miss Wycherly in
the role was the acclaim which
greeted her portrayal of Southern
mountain woman in the original
production of Tobacco Road" back
in 1894
Miss Wycherly, signed in New
York, is on her way to Hollywood

Hayward reminds us in some strange
way of the movie actor named Barry
Norton, which, to be sure, has
nothing at all to do with THE Son
of Monte Cristo."
This failure of the Capitol's new
film to attain any inspired heights
might also be due to the fact that
these pleasant never-never lands IN
the middle of old Europe, such as
this Duchy of LichtenSteln, are not
today the happiest choice as locales
for fairy tales. GrauStark seems so
long ago and far away that the
battle for it appears hardly worth
the blood shed at swords point OF
the brain cells burned up in in
trigue.
To be downright frank about it. OF
course, the principal charge against
Edward Small's "Son OF Monte

spirited romance as ever you saw.

Those who think the son of the

Every editor has had the exper-
fence of having some one come to
him after he has gotten into jan,
and ask the item be kept out of the
newspaper. Usually it is because o1
q mother or sister or wife. Sometimes
the editor agrees not to print the
item, but no editor withholds legit-
innate news without feeling that he
has betrayed his profession. The
wrong doer imposes upon hte editor
by making him the goat for his mis-
deeds. It is strange, too, how some
men never seem to think of their
wife, or mother, or sister until they
get into a jam with the law. We al
ways doubt the sincerity of such a
plea. We usually feel that the fell
low is so yellow that he can't even
face the punishment for his mis-
deeds and publicity which without
any doubt is part of the punish
ment.

FAT AND FORTY

Often a fellow tries to fool him
self about his manly figure after he
reaches the forty mark. He closes
one eye at his mirrored image and
considers that he is carrying his
weight mighty well for his age. But
If he opens both eyes he generally
finds that he has lost weight in
his arms, legs and shoulders, but
has put considerable amount of
poundage on his stomach. This fat,
they inform us, draws down on the
diaphram and hereby an insult
f'"'ont amount of blood circulates
through the vessels of the heart and
this leads to angina pectoris which
is an increasing heart complaint
among older men of today. The So
luton for men of forty and over is
to control this ebay window" or
German Goitre" with a corset, as
suggested by a western doctor, who
has studied the subject of angina
pectoris. If you are considering the
purchase of a garment for yourself
and are loathe to walk into a store
to buy one, carefully compute with
angles and curves and then swear
your wife to secrecy before sending
her down to do the shopping for you!

THEY WANTED TIME

We sit with OUR fingers crossed
and wonder what will be the result
of communistic Russia allying her
self with democratic England. There
are some of OUR readers who charge
that Stain is no better than Hitler
and Russia's past history may give
them room for discussion. Perhaps
England isn't approving of Russia S
past conduct but England is glad
OF the help Russia can give her
in this war. We consider the sit
uation with regard for OUR own
interests, and though it is selfish, it
is the principle thought of most
America today. To do what is best
for the nation is our main concern
right now. If you are faced by ex-
IRENE danger and something came
along to divert the attention of your
foe, giving you time to gain your
strength and fortify your house, you
would he glad of the distraction and
help, accept the assistance CRATE
fully since it has maybe saved your
life. So England considers this
Russian alliance. She doesn't stop
to argue the ethics and morals of
this Russian government. She did
MT do it during the first world war
when Russia was an ally. England's
prayer has been for time. America
has asked for time in building,
equipping and training. So Russia
comes in to battle and give England
an answer to her call for time
time-time.

THE FARMERS DAUGHTER

At a recent convention which met
in the interest of home economics
with special regard to the farm fam
lily, a wardrobe was on display as
an outfit for a girl of high school.
The cost of it ran to $7.52 for one
year. This sample wardrobe with a
few changes and alterations, would
last for three years, be in style,
serve practical needs as well as suit
the appearance of the wearer for
this period of time. Three years Of
wear puts the $752 rate on the out
fit. The garments would he made at
home, following simple patterns, us
ing mostly cotton materials, trim
mings with worn necktieS and US
ing spools, corks, nuts and wood
chips for buttons. It requires in
genuity and the knack of viSualizing
"a touch of artistry and a trick
with the needle and thread. Women
about Kennewick have this and if
they are members of a family whose
net income is $500 a year, they will
still see that their daughter of high
school age looks as good as the next
girl.

If initiation comes as it did during
the World War, and prices get radi-
cally out of line, it will be in spite
of everything that can possibly be
done to prevent it. Initiation is disas-
trous because it is always followed
by pay day which more than takes
the profits of high prices and leaves
a train of wrecked and bankrupt in
dividuals and businesses in it's wake.
Much effort and thought is being ex-

ton of the disastrous World war ex-
periences resulting from initiation.
In spite OF everything that can be
done there will be measure of in

Every community has one or two
old men, who in spite of their age,
make an effort to support them
selves by odd jobs and gardening.
Some of them produce remarkable
gardens, gardens that would be a
credit to much younger and more
active men. They may be seen i'm
their gardens early and late. They
care and tend their crop, use what
they need and sell the rest. Every
town also has a number of younger
men much more able who never
seem to think of making such an ef-
fort for themselves. They prefer to
let the WPA and the government do
it all for them. They are much more
able than the older men who make
such a commendable effort toward
self support. There should he some
system of rewarding those who make
such an effort and giving less to
those too lazy and Indifferent to
try.
