CHILD'S MEALS;
PIGEON PROBLEM?

I suggest to Mrs. E. K, who is
having trouble with her child's
meals the following:
/. Try and not to hustle about
the kitchen or dining nook while
the child is eating.
2. If you just have to be doing
something at the same time the
child is having her meal, stop often
at her table and pick up her spoon
and give her mouthful of the most
hard to eat" item, and add a
cheerful remark such as land down
went the spinach" 1t will seem
like game to her and she will prob
ably say, Look" and then repeat
your remark with some more of the
vegetable disappearing. You can
change the game every day, make
it up as you 60 along with varia-
tions, /. e., And the dinner said

Hollywood, March co Ethel Smith, the lady born with a beat who plays swing on the electric organ with her fingers, her feet, her knees, her body and her heart, gave us private two hour recital today.
 Considering her movie, radio and record salaries, we will shortly re- ceive a bill for about $850, 900.
 Come on up to the house." she said, "and I'll noodle around for you.'
 Ethel is in Hollywood at the moment. leaping fro none studio to another between radio engage ments.
 Hollywood discovered that the electric organ is visual instru- ment when Ethel made her film debut last year in Bathing Beauty" They also discovered that Ethel and her red hair, turned up nose and legs are easy on the eyes.
 "It was a little embarrassing. ," she laugher. "At one time I counted 10 guys sitting on the floor looking at my legs"
 It was the first time Hollywood had photographed anyone playing the electric organ and it was a nice surprise. Ethel doesn't just sit and play. She dances on the pedals aid her whole body moves in rhythm with the music. ANGLE SHOTS
 Cameramen and lighting ex- perts had a field day photograph ing her from the floor, through the pedals and on mobile booms which circled arouid her head and peeked over her shoulder.
 Anyone who sits still" she says, shouldn't be playing the organ"
 Daughter of a Pittth hurgh real estate man, Ethel started playing the piano at nine, then took organ lessons from the famous Dr. Cas- per Coach at Cranegie Tech.
 But she wasn't born to play the classics. Dr. Coch gave her up as a hopeless case when she started swinging Beethoven.
 Ethel discovered the electric or gan six years ago in small Bav- arian cafe in Miami Beach. where she played for her supper and nothin gelse.
 "The owner gave me a job to keep his chef happy" she said. "The chef was crazy about Wee neZe Valtzes.' I started at midnight and didn't get my sauerbraten un- til 2 a. m.
 Then she went to Brazil as en- tertainment director on the ship carrying Cordell Hull and other delegates to the first Pan-Ameri- can Congerence in Rio. One of her jobs was to dance with the diplo- mats every night.
 T ruined six pairs of shoes" she said. Those diplomats were brains on one end and lead on the other"
 She fell in love with Rio, and remained there a year, playing at the Copacabana Club.
 THINGS POPPED
 Then she returned to New York, played at the St. Regis Hotel and things started to happen"

COWBOY AND LADY
 ON STRAND BILL.
Second Hit, Old FavOrite, Features Roland Young
 in Title Role

A lively chapter to the screens history of romantic comedy has been added by Samuel Goldwyn, who se- lected titan -haired, dangerous Merle Oberon as the lady who gaily steals the affections of strong, silent Gary Cooper in "The Cowboy and the Lady," the comedy romance which opened yesterday at the Strand the ater.
 The picture introduces the flash ing, brunette beauty of Merle as a new and exciting foil for the TO- mantle, outdoor type so completely personfled by Cooper. She plays the part of an unconventional society debutante, the daughter of a sena- tor with presidential aspirations, and the role gives her chance to be gay, charming, witty and the young person she is. Merle runs out of the Social Register into the cowboy life of Gary, and it's after wedding bells have climaxed the romance that things begin to hap pen in fun-provoking fashion.
