Song Of Norway Proves
Broadway's Best Musical
BY CHARLES GENTRY

NEW YORK. Dec. S-We spent
the evening at the Imperial for
Song of Norway" watching the
fjords go by TO the music of
Edward Greg.
This spectacular musical which
was slightly sighted by the
critics has proven the best
attraction Of the Rialto circuit
OF tuneful treats.
II is now a Standing-room-only
fact that il the Griegs had a
name for il, Song of Norway
is hit.
Most amazing feature is that
Ira Pettina. the meZzo who has
been the principal source OF
humor in operate productions
like Marriage of Figaro" at the
Met, proves a sensation in must
cal comedy, now that she's moved
uptown in the Shubert alley
district.
Pettina does what Grace Moore
did several years ago. by using
her voice and acting ability in
the same way.
PARoDIES THE PART
She plays, or rather parodies,
the character OF an opera singer,
who meets the young composer
Grieg on a concert tour Of Nor
way. Fascinated, she takes him
on as her accompanist and con-
sort, all over Europe.
But even the accumulative
fame which results when he col
laborates with Ibsen on Peer
Gynt" can't console him when he
thinks about his Ilends and
native country.
He finally winds up indicating
his absence with a performance
of the A-minor Concerto which is
as thrilling as if it were really
played very we'll on the piano,
instead of being danced by men,
hers of the Monte Carlo Ballet
Russo.
Lawrence Brooks does a typi-
cal Student Prince" job Of the
role of Grieg and Helena Bliss
displays a sympathetic person
atty as his wife, but the rest of
the cast with the singular excep-
ton of Robert Shafer, is just
what you might expect the next

TECHNIQUE MASTERED

Miss Glenn proved that she has
mastered the technique completely
as she began the serious first
movement and followed into its
lyrical successor. She was called
back on the stage countless times.

FUNERAL MARCH

Possibly, this intention influ-
enced the Interpretation, for the
second movement, the Funeral

considered overly long and mo-
notonously repetitive.

and seemed on a complete par
with the joyous and always superb

Don't be stampeded into over

Ask your family to take all the

to "clean the plate" and eat
everything to avoid waste. This
should be particularly stressed
with children. They will COOP

Br-r-r-ipp, hear that? That is scissors
being sharpened. Now do your scissors
cut anyway? Do they go through the
cloth with almost no effort, or do they
have to be pushed ? Is cutting out a gar
ment fun, or is it like getting your hus-
band off to church?
Scissors can be sharpened. File with
a fine file. Hold the opened scissors in
the left hand. Set the flat side of the
file on the level of the blade back near
the hinge. Hold the file at an angle
against the blade and push to the point
Of the scissors blade.
The strokes must be long; 60 entire
ly to the point with each one. Test the
scissors by cutting a hair. If a hair is
cut easily and quickly, they are sharp.
If the scissors are loose in the hinge,
they must be frightened. Most very good
scissors have a tap on one end Of the
screw that holds the two blades togeth-
er. Hold the tap with a pair of pillars
and tighten the screw with a screwdriv-
er.
In case this screw has no tap. then the
end of the screw must be hit lightly
with a small hammer and slightly flat
tened.
Scissors should never be allowed to
rust. If rusted, they can be cleaner by
rubbing briskly with a piece Of wool
cloth that has been moistened : with
household oil. Dampness should never
be allowed to stay on scissors for any
length of time. Dampness will rust them

A Number One Job
The number one job Of poultry rails
ers is to meet the demand for Eggs and
poultry with available feed supplies,
The problem is one Of supply. proper
distribution, and conservation Of avail
able feed.
Continu us culling of low producing
will serve in a large measure to adjust
flock numbers to feed supply and to
get the maximum benefit from the
quantity Of feed available for poultry.
This is the time of year to prepare
for winter poultry pasture. The best
winter pasture crops for poultry are al
falfa, crimson clover, or crimson clover
mixed with rye grass and wheat. Win
ter pastures for laying flocks will in
crease egg production, increase hatch
ability, contribute to healthier flocks,
lower the feed cost for each dozen eggs
and make more profit possible.
Winter pastures of the above crops
will usually last until May and will be
available for early Matched chicks next
spring. Early Matched chicks raised on
good pasture which is a good source Of
vitamin A will make faster gains at less
cost a pound of gain.
September, October and November
mark the period of lowest egg produc-
ton and highests prices.
Pullets have been found to be the
best layers during the months of high
est prices. Feed, shade, fresh water,
freedom from parasites and comfortable
quarters are requirements for keeping
pullets at top production.

SEES
LONG, HARD WAR

WASHINGTON, Sept. g. Up -
Navy Secretary Forrestal reported
today that the japanese now are
able to mass their air power in
comparatively small area and
that a "long and hard fight is
in prospect.
He said at a news conference
that year ago the Japanese had
their air forces spread over an
immense Pacific area but that with
the capture or naturalization and
by-passing of some so enemy bases
by American forces 'the Japs are
relieved of the responsibility of
supplying them with planes.
'They can mass their air power
now in the narrowing theater Of
action, the Philippines, China and
Japan proper" Forrestal said.
He added that the japanese OBJ
viously have been saving their
forces for engagements to come
and as a result will have more
planes in future engagements.
Also he said, the japanese have
made many important technical
improvements" in planes.
Thus" he said. 'the U nj e d
States Navy will face Jap air pow
.er. in the coming year that will
be stronger both quantitatively and
qualitatively. The fight will be
long and hard one"
: He continued that the Japanese
assume we'll be bored with war
when the European war is over"
and knowing the problems of sup
ply in the Pacific, the enemy
thinks I'VE are a nation not will
ing to see through the war. think
they are wrong in that" he de-
clared. -, M.
Forrestal pointed out that two
year period was required to. build
up the margin of power that is de-
feating Germany in Europe, and
said that it: will be major prob
lem to build UP power in the Pa
cific after the European war ends.
He expressed his belief however,
that the same period of time would
not be necessary.
