of a tall woman"
This was a tough assign
ment for the special effects
boys at Paramount and a
headache to the director
visiting Hollywood.
They tried gauze, then silk
soaked in phosphorus, trick
photography and steam, but
all the resulting spooks
weren't good enough. They
had to have an apparition
that would scare the day
lights out of the cat that
lived in a haunted house
along with Ray Midland.
Ruth HusSey and Cornelia
Otis Skinner. The three hui
man actors could register
fright all right, but the cat,
of course, wouldn't give out
with yowls and a tail like a
bottle brush without plenty
of reason.
Seventy makeshift spooks
were whipped up. tried and

The trouble was that with
every step. the spook lost
an inch or two and at the
bottom was quite dumpy.
So Allen had holes bored in
each tread. out of which
came puffs of compressed
air. That made the ghost
keep her height admirably.
The real test came. how
ever, when Whiskey. the
feline actor, was introduced

go with everything he had.

-Kenyen, 52-year-eld Brit
ish miner, has promised not
TO annoy the police OF the
little Lancashire village Of
st. Helens any further with
his suicide attempts.
There's no use" he re.
Gently told a police court
magistrate. II guess I'm
just too tough to die"
From the record, it looks
as if all that Joe says is
true. A bachelor, he was de-
pressed over the death of
his mother and father, so he
decided that the best thing
was to end IL all.
hanging, he thought,
would be the easiest way
out. So, attaching a length
of rope, looped around his
neck, to a nail, he jumped
off a chair. The nail came
out and Joe wound up in a
Disguised heap on the floor.
Next. he decided, he would
try poison. He took a
healthy swig from a bottle
in the medicine cabinet. The
stuff made him violently
i'll, but didn't kill him. Po-
lice found him rolling all
over the floor.
Third time lucky, thought
Joe. Turning on all the gas
jets, after plugging up the
doors and windows, he went
TO bed. The police, called
by the neighbors, broke
down the door and found
the unkillable Joe stagger-
ing around the gas.iilled
room.

COMMUNITY CANNING URGED

Community canning centers take
lot of planning to get started and
keep running throughout the grow
| ing season. They must be operated
on business basis by group of
public spirited persons who see
the need for preserving all the food
supplies possible, and who are will
| ing to devote the necessary time and
effort. Good organizing leaders are
where you find them, experience
shows. A good leader may be an en-
ergetic homemaker, home demon
stration agent, business man who
has garden, teacher of vocational
agriculture or home economics, or
some other civic leader. 1t may not
yet be too late in the season to get
such a center going to take care of
fruits and vegetables.
A preliminary survey will deter
mine how many families are interest
ed, the kinds and quantities of food
they wish to put up, and similar in
formation. The next step is public
meeting to set up a general commit
tee and several subcommittee to
handle financing, housing and equip
ment, public relations, operation,
health and sanitation of the plant.
Funds may come from public SUBJ
scription, voluntary contributions,
or community bond issue. Overhead
costs should usually come out of SER
vice charges. If a group is interested
in starting a community canning CEN
ter, the War Food Administration
will help on points that require spe-
cial attention. VIA advises hiring a
qualified, full-time, paid supervisor.

USE TAx ON MOTOR VEHICLES

Congress having again ignored
protests over the continuance Of the
SIS Federal use tax on motor We
motorists of the nation started June
| /, when stamps went on sale at the
postoffices.
keystone Automobile Club, which
has fought the tax since its inception,
announced that supplies of stamps
are on hand in all postoffices and that
regardless of the justified indigna-
ton" of motorists over continuance
of the tax, the sensible thing to do is
to comply with the law early in the
month and avoid trouble in the last
minute rush before the deadline on
July 1.
Terming the Federal levy "the
most unpopular tax ever imposed on
motorists" Keystone's statement de-
clared the tax has been particularly
obnoxious to car owners in the East,
whose "use" of vehicles has been
curtailed almost to the vanishing
point.
particularly, the statement said,
lis this true in the case of the A
rationed motorist, whose allotment
of two gallons per week permits
minimum use of his car. To charge
him IS for the privilege of driving
some 1900 miles per year is unjust
and negotiable.
The stamp this year is lavender in
color. 1t is the same size as in for
mer years and the law requires it to
be displayed on the vehicle. The GUS
tomary place for display is the low
err right-hand corner of the wind
shield, next to the car inspection
sticker.
Under the law the SIS charge COW
ers the car for the entire fiscal year.
If car which has not been in use
is either put into operation or trans
ferred to new ownership, the tax is
paid on pro rata basis-one-twelf
deducted for every month after July.
In transactions involving cars for
which stamps have been bought, the
new owners are not obliged to buy
new stamps. The rule is that the
stamp goes with the car
