EAH Threaten
YOUR CHILD'S HEALTH

Don't let your child suffer a single needless
minute Of distress with Pin-Worms!
Recent medical reports reveal that an
amazing number of children land grown
ups too) may be victims of Pin-Worms-
often without suspecting what is wrong.
Sc watch out for the warning signs-espe-
cially the tormenting, embarrassing rectal
itch. Because now o can and should do
something about it,
A highly effective way to deal with this
ugly infection has now been made possible.
1t Is based on the medically recognized
drug known as gentian violet. This special
drug is the vital ingredient in P.H. the
Pin-Worm tablets developed in the labora-
tories of DR.. D. Jayne & Son.
P.W tablets are small and easy to take.
and they act in a special way to remove
Pin-Worms. So, if you suspect Pin-Worms
in your child or yourself, get a box of
JAMES P-W right away, and follow the
directions.
Ask your druggist: P.W for Pin.Worms!

Arriving in Vienna we went to
the Bristol hotel where We had
real food, soft beds, and a solid
roof owe our heads You can't
imagine how much we appreciated
all this; and then the first night
performance.
The theater had a magnificent
and large stage and all along the
boxes were draped huge flags of
the United Nations. Our audience
were generals down to the buck
privates including Americans, Bri-
fish, French, Russians and Bull
garians. The theater was packed,
and only a small percentage of the
soldiers present could under
stand English. They really spoiled
US. We were received royalty and
the applause went on and on. After
the show General CLARK entertained

This is the first vacation Gene
and Dixie have had since their re-
turn from overseas in Feb. Before
returning to New York they plan
to visit Virginia Beach and Will
llamsburg, Va, and will be accom-
panied home by Dixie's parents,
Mr.. and Mrs. F. M. Dunbar OF
Atlanta, who are also visiting with
Dlxle's sister at the beach.
Since her retirement from pic
lures, Dixie devotes all her time
keeping house for Gene. They have
a small apartment in the city and
Dixie does all her own cooking.
When asked by the reporter,
Are you a good cook, Dixie?"
Smiling, Dixie replied, Eyes,
really a cook" This was verified
by Gene, adding, You bet"
In conclusion, Dixie, who danced
and sang her way in pictures such
as Walking Down Broadway, Re
becca of Sunnybrook Farm, Love

Band, Freshman Year and many
others, said, Marriage is a career
IN itself and that's the career

Dixie and her husband, Gene
Snyder, dance director of the Rock
cites at Radio City Music Hall in
New York City, are spending a
short vacation with Dixie's sister,
Mrs. J. A. Oldham, al Wrights-
vile Beach.
In an interview with the Morn
ing Star, Dixie related how Holly
wood is overflowing with beauti-
full girls.
eff you should be lucky enough
to win a beauty contest and reach
Hollywood on beauty that's
not enough" warned the dancing
star. A beauty contest winner,
upon arrival in Hollywood, should
insist on one year of training in
dancing, singing, and dramatics
before signing any contract. You
find beautiful women all over Hol-
lyWood, the clerks in the stores
are beautiful, the typist in offices
are beautiful, the girls that serve
at drive-in stands are beautiful,
BUT, continued twinkling-eyed Dix
lie, poise, personality and ability
excel all even beauty"
Gene joined US in the conversa-
ton at this time and we left
Hollywood and beautiful women
to hear about their experiences in
the European war theater when
Gene and his troupe, consisting of
Is Rockettes and IL ballet dan
GERS, starring Dixie, left for over
seas last June, with II tons of
scenery and 1856 costume trunks,
the largest group Of entertainers
ever sent out on tour during the
war. .
Gene told Of how he and Dixie
were called Nom and Pop by the
troupe members and the fun and
difficulties they endured while
touring. ............
1--WE slept in anything from DUP
tents to patched up huts with the
rain and snow putting in on us
during the night. We ate field ra-
tons and liked it, and to top it all
Two OF u girls, Joan and Jane
Mckenna, were captured by the
Germans and held two days in a
barn outside of -Rouen. They were
the only UsO showgirls to be

The GI's certainly gave us a
warm welcome, continued Gene,
everywhere we appeared we were
greeted with open rms Our show
was scheduled for 2 hours and 7
minutes but the boys applauded us
SO that we kept going anywhere
from 2 IL to 3 hours long. Our
show Travelled through France,
Germany and Austria and we were
booked with the Third army.
Il want to tell you the highlight
of our tour and I think it was the
biggest thrill Dixie and 1 had
while over there" Gene said and
it began like this:
General Mark. w. Clark, COM
handing general of the Fifth army

insisted on bringing it to his outfit
which was stationed il Austria.
Our orders were changed. and so

almost to the knees. The outfit
is complete with a T-shirt, prefer
ably white. In fact white seems
to be the color of all play clothes
and bath suits this season. Have
you seen Mary Anne Jenkins
white strapless bath suit? With
perfect suntan she has, she really
is an attraction! Mid-riffs and no
straps are coming to the head of
the list of summer fashions, but
it's a cinch that with the return
of fall, the old ''cover-up' clothes
will come back I know someone
who refers to the new evening
dresses as gownless evening straps.
That's just about as perfect a de-
scription as I've heard.
Visitors From Baltimore
Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Harrell
have as their guests for most of
the summer Miss Georgia Mueller
and Miss Peggy Bietz from Balti-
more, Maryland. Georgia and
Peggy like the beach as much as
all of US beach combers do, and
they sho' are swell girls. I've had
the pleasure of meeting and being
with them, and I've really enjoyed
it Peggy is gifted with long,
dark brown curly hair. and is
rather tall and thin. But Georgia
has short brown hair that lies in
soft curls, and the prettiest pair OF
blue eyes I've ever seen. They
both have acquired sun tans, so
you couldn't tell they weren't from
here, unless you could hear them
talk. But they have, naturally,
that accent that only people from
Baltimore have. Even if they are
almost yankees, they're mighty
fine. They'll be here till the first
of July.
Miss Mary Roland was honored
at a linen shower given by Miss
Mary Humphrey this past Tues
day night at Miss Humphreys
home in BrookWood. Many OF
Miss Roland's young friends, as
well as old, attended. During the
evening the bride-to-be vas pre-
scented with one Of the loveliest
corsages l have ever seen. 1t was
made of pink sweetheart roses
and fashioned in the shape of a
heart. The top of the heart was
formed by a large DOW of match
ing pink ribbon. The house was
beautifully decorated with gar
denia and dalhia arrangements.
Congrats to Elizabeth Marye on

When she attended Isaac Bear
