Actor Is Jacks
Of : All : Trade

AS well as being a gifted music
ian and comedian, Smiley Brunette
can boast a jack-of-all-trades back
ground as well.
Soon after the comedian grad
uated from Astoria, ILL.,, high
school, he worked in turn as de-
livery boy in department store,
laborer in canning factory, taxi
driver, hot-dog peddler, truck
driver, snow-shoveller and plumb
er's assistant.
Nevertheless his heart was in
music-and had been since he was
nine years old. Strangely enough,
although Smiley plays 81 differ
ent instruments, Hollywood tossed
all this ability out of the window,
after his first picture.
He proved such a comedian,
that the character of Frog Mill
house was born, and has appeared
in AZ Gene Autry starring pic
lures, the last being BELLS of
Capistrano," which comes to the
Milo Theatre November Is and 16.

Christmas Seal
Goal Is Set At
$1,000 For County
liner e a sed Need And
Greater Results Are Cited
At Meeting

Setting their goal at $11, 700,
this year, the Christmas Seal
Sale Committee of the Montgom-
cry County tuberculosis Associa-
ton met last Thursday at the home
Of Mrs. Dexter Billiard, president
of the association, at her home in
Rockville, to plan their thirty
sixtn annual seal sale, starting
November %.
Mrs. William Dahl, chairman of
the committee, announced that due
to the increase in the seal sale in
the past two years, nine public
health nurses have been added to
the staff. Mrs. Lillian Gardiner,
superintendent of nurses, reported
that 1870 nurses home visits are
now being made each month as
compared with AT a month, two
years ago.
The complete history Of how a
case of tuberculosis is handled and
the source of infection traced was
outlined by Mrs. Virginia Nc
Laughlin, member of the nursing
staff.
Another project financed by
funds from the seal sale now being
inaugurated in county schools is
the tuberculin patch testing, which
was explained by DIR. v. L. Eli
colt, county health officer. He
stated that children showing a
positive test may lead to the dis
covery of an unrecognized "open''
adult case, the great menace of
tuberculosis.

Requirements
For Nursery
Are Listed
Buy Screened Crib
With Firm Spring
And Mattress
By Lettice Lee Street,

Dear Mrs. STREET.: Many thanks
for sending the layette list and now
I am going to trouble you again.
think have all the necessary clothes
for my expected baby, but can you
advise me also as to what nursery
furniture I shall require? Thank
you again. Mrs. S. R.
The most essential piece of nur-
sery furniture is, of course, a Separ-
ate bed for the baby, his very own
private little crib. While ruffly
bassinettes are very pretty, it is more
practical to buy crib that the baby
can grow into" and thus avoid
the expense of having to purchase
two beds within year. Most babies
soon become too big for the average
baSsinette.
Therefore, suggest that you buy
one of those well-made, screened
baby cribs. They are excellent for
both indoor and outdoor use because
they can be wheeled out of doors or on
a porch, and the screened top folds
over the baby and protects him
from flies and other insects. Pink
or blue pads may be bought that
fit the sides of these screened cribs
and these make the bed coy inside
and free from draughts.
The mattress should be firm and
the springs should not sag even
little bit; pillows should be Scorned.
If crib with bars is selected
care should be taken to choose one
with a firm catch so that busy little
fingers cannot cause the sides to
slip down, and the bars should be
spaced close enough together to
make it impossible for a curious
cherub to stick his head between
them.
The next most needed article is
carriage, not drawn by four white
horses, but pushed by a sensible
mother who has chosen a Solidly
built baby vehicle that rolls smoothly
along on firm springs and sturdy
wheels. 1t should be at least 2 feet
above the ground, its hood should
be adjustable and it should be long
and wide enough to allow the active
baby to kick and roll about 10 his
little hearts content. Its mattress
and springs should be firm, too, as
baby will no doubt nap in his car
riage out-of doors. For summertime
snoozing a dark green or blue white
is too glaring) mosquito netting
cover is necessity to sound sleep
that is unmenaced by harmful
insects.
Next in line is the bathinette
which has a dual use; bathtub and
dressing table. It's height is a great
saving to mothers back and it can
be folded neatly away when it is
not needed.
Here, also, are a few optional
articles of nursery furniture:
Play pen for the older baby (very
good to have if the baby is not
abused by being left, neglected, in
it for too long time).
Screen.
Chest of drawers.
Nursery ice box.
Gate for stairway top landing.
Nursery chairs for older baby.
Small table and chair for fodder.
