 Knowledge Of Poisonous Plants Will Help You Enjoy Vacation
By ALICIA HART NEA Staff Writer

Vacation Bound? Save your skin the unhappy consequences that can come from a brush with poison ivy, suYnac or oak by arning yourself with information as to what this triple threat looks like and giving it big, wide berth.
 As good as detailed illustrations for Identification are these descrip- tions of this poisonous trio sup piled by New York City's Depart ment of Health.
 Watch for These
 Poison ivy? Is a shrub or vine that twines around tree trunks or runs along old stone walls, has leaf-groups of three which change from a ripe green in the summer to a brilliant russet in the fall. It bears waxy white berries.
 Poison sumac, like ivy. bears punches of white berries and it's leaves turn scarlet in the fall, but foliage is characterized by rows of leaflets stemming in pairs from stalks sheathed with fine, non- sticky fuzz. This enemy usually turks in low marshlands and swamps.
 Poison oak grows in typical clusters of three leaves, resem- bling oak leaves, which sprout from shrub or vine that sometimes weaves it's noxious way among branches of trees.
 No Sure Protection
 Warned that nothing has been formulated to keep you safe from these plants if their irritating sap touches your skin, doctor cites expediencies to use which may help to slave of rash. The meas ures? Use three or four fathers of soap and particular diligence in scrubbing fingernails and skin be- tween the fingers. Other wise pre- cautions to take, he says are a shampoo to wash out any poison which may have reached your hair, and a bath followed by an alcohol rubdown.
 If, in spite of all you do, skin reddens or develops blisters, the

POLI'5

A distinctive note in screen en- tertainment is struck in The En- chanted Cottage" which opened yesterday at the Loew-Poli Theatre co-starring Dorothy McQuire, Rob- ert Young and Herbert Marshall.
 When his bomber is shot down in the South Pacific, Oliver Brad ford Robert Young( is crippled and his face disfgured. He returns home, only to find that the gush- ing pity of his parents and his fancee is more than he can stand, and he takes refuge in a pictures que cottage where he had intended to spend his honeymoon. There he meets kindred soul ln the housemaid, Laura Pennington, Dorothy McQuire) whose plainness has made her sensitive and shy. Drawn together by their common loneliness and influenced by a blind pianist, Herbert Marshall, who lives nearby, the two come to care for one another. When Divers blundering parents insist upon his giving up his hermit existence Oliver forestalls them by marrying Laura.
 The unusual result of their mar. riage, which Hillgrove ascribes tt the entertainment of the cottage brings about the compelling climax and makes the picture a ger,uinel, memorable experience.
 Young and Miss McGuire art ideally cast as the young couple transfgured by romance, and Mar. shall is splendid as their sylnpathe. tic mentor. with brilliant portrayal. by Mildred Natwick, Spring Ewing. ton, Hilary Brooke and Richard Gaines.

STRAND

As long as the human heart has the power to feel, to love, to suf- fer, to triumph, "The Song ot Bernadette" will be remembered as a great motion picture, wondrously conceived and enthrallingly unfold ed.
 It is beyond all question the full fillment of all you had hoped 1t would be .. beyond all conception in the miraculous spell it cast over all, who saw it last night at the Strand Theatre, where it had its premiere.
 Acc6lades will be bestowed-and with a lavish hand-upon 20 Gen. tury-Fox for the remarkable man. ner in which it has bridged the transition from the novel to the screen. Great and universally be- loved as was Franz Werfel's story of "Bernadette" between book cov- CTS. it is infinitely greated and more compelling as a motion pie ture.
 In the title role of the Maid of Lourdes, Jennifer Jones makes the most suspicious debut in Hollywood history. Here is a star-and one who has hared into being with a a rilliance that shines with the mark of greatness. A bow to David O. Selnick for her discovery.
 Matching Jennifer Jones perfor- nance are the featured members of the cast: William Eythe, Charles Bickford, Vincent Price, Lee J. Cobb and Gladys Cooper. Others in important roles are well-nigh flaw less.
 From the moment when "Berna- dette Soubirous, young daughter of an impoverished family, sees the vision of The Beautiful Lady" "The Song of Bernadette" is a rare experience.
 Bernadette's faith is from her heart. Lourdes seethes with ex- citement over report of the vision -the authorities grown increasing ky concerned. fearing the effect on the people-but Bernadette holds steadfast.
 Bernadette is hailed into court and asked to deny she saw vis- ton. She disarningly replies, How can I deny it, when I did see it?"
 The grotto is ordered closed, as a final measure. Bernadette, i'm pelled by a call from The Lady" goes to the fence built to keep the townspeople away, and falls to her knees;

BY WILLIAM E. MCKINNEY America's Card Authority

Have you met Sylvia in my column? You know, Sylvia is the girl who always makes the wrong play according to rule, but it al- ways works out best for her.
 The bidding was little optimistic on today's hand, but South figured he needed slam to break even for the rubber. Well, he won the open- ing club lead with the ace, took two rounds of diamonds which picked up the trump and then cashed his ace of spades. The four of spades was next led and, of course, the natural thing to do is for West to split the honors. Other wise, the declarer will flnesse the ten spot and discard the losing five of clubs on the good king Of spades. But not Sylvia. She plays low. The ten spot was fnessed, the king of spades then led and the club discarded. But how was the declarer going to get rid of the two hearts? If Sylvia had split her honors, the declarer would have won with the king, led the ten ot

In the light Of the circumstances

The speaker drew a parallel be-

which the Is Colonies faced after
the Revolution with the world prob
lem the nations face after this var.
History records the success OF
George Washington's leadership in
a campaign to weld 13 weak States
into a united nation" Mr.. Wall said.
True, today, we do not contem-
plate a world state. But we do have
a choice between international chaos
and union of nations which will
impose order. The charter under
which that union must function will
be compromise document, recon-
Cling conflicting interests. It may
offer only faint hope of a distant
Utopia for the world.
But, to paraphrase George Wash

tion, It will be the best charter that
