starts with "AggresSiveness -
spelling the child to walking

In this winter weather, Mr.
Hymes' advice is to "Steer away
from making a mumy out OF
your youngster in winter by
wrapping him in layer after
layer of sweaters and coats You
will have a more alive child if
you can keep him warm without
keeping him swaddled."
Your attitude is as important
as the clothing, he adds. You
know any active child gets dirty,
his clothes get torn, and they
wear out - this is the price for
having vigorous children.
The toughest, simplest, easiest
to manage clothing Clippers,
wide armholes, big neck open
ings, front fastenings all help
is best.
Most important - let your
toddler dress himself if he wants
to. BY the time he's three, he
is ADLER to do the simpler taking
off of clothes, and feeling very
proud of it.
Spinach will be plentiful in
January, the marketing special
lists say. Modern shipping meth
DDS bring it to you crisp and

cious chopped with lettuce, hard
cooked eggs, sour cream and a
little vinegar) Or bake cooked
spinach in a casserole in alter
nate layers with cheese sauce,
topped with bread crumbs and
margarine.

check the weight of the material.
The 1913 muslin should weigh 4
ounces to the square yard; the
140, Az ounces. Check on length;
a sheet should be at least SO
inches long.
Beware of a type of cheap
sheet called "back- filled" that
some stores have been stocking
up on to soften consumer resist
ance to high prices. This is a
low-count, lightweight sheet that
you can spot by the loose weave
you sSe when you hold it up to
the light.
Ever since the war some. mills
and stores have been pushing
colored sheets with colored bor-
ders. Let the merchant or mill
operator sleep on these himself
Colored sheets frequently cost
25% more than white sheets OF
the same quality.
Lowest prices this writer has
found recently for muslin sheets
of standard quality are those
sold by the j. c. Penney stores

is about S2.75. Some stores
charge as much as S2.75 ano

good values in sheets, cases and

in the private brands of large

then the column was misplaced,

have not seen the camp on
Sand Lake, near A drl n,

too, would be proud, of it.

bers, w hich naturally IN

potent force in the COM

tarily, various organizations
who appeal for our aid. The
Community Chest, the Old
Newboys Fund and the Red
Cross are a few important to
mention.
We have embarked on our
fund campaign for this sea-
son. 1t is actually a contlnua-
ton of last year. We intend
to use several ways and
means to make it possible for
hundreds of kids to 60 to

June, July and August. The
blood bill will be high this
year. The milk bill will be a
tidy sum. And our payroll
certainly will not be small.
Our reasons are good for
telling you all these things.
We need your help - the
kids need your help - the
underprivileged n e d your
help - our union needs your
help, and we feel confident
you will respond.
Facts at times can be over
simplified. I feel myself at times
trying to over-simplify the fund
raising. This is the way / do it
if every member of Local IL
would contribute SC per week
the problem would be solved.

ledo Industrial Union Council

for Local IL Summer Camp. II
is my personal opinion that
will never do anything finer
Brother Gosser h as entrusted
me to spearhead this fine civic
job and l feel honored for the
privilege of h lping in this
worthy project.
Under these circumstances we
we are asking the aid of all

important part, the public. From
these will come much aid -

out it we connot succeed.
We feel sure our fund raising
will succeed and that you, my
friends, who are reading this
will help in every way you can.
And for this help we shall be
truly grateful.
AS Mr.. Gosser has said, our
donation is really not a dona-
ton. 1t sis an investment. This
investment is helping to mold
our future citizens. 1t is about
the most we can expect from
our money, The children we
help today will in turn help us
in future years.

Making the offer was Columbia
Pictures which has in mind varl-
alton of the Bligh story to be
called "Tyrant of the Sea-
However, even in rejecting the
role, Laughton is left with the
feeling that it still belongs to him.
The character in the proposed Co.
lumbia picture, who was to have
been known as Capt. Bligh, will
now be given another name. After
all, when an actor and character
become that universally associated
in the popular mind, what's a
studio to do?
All the technical geniuses in the
movies are not in Hollywood. Some
of them are in the retail, or exhi-
bition, end of the industry. A
notable lot is the group that has
gone to work to create artificial
moonlight for drive-in theaters.
Why artificial moonlight?
Well, for some reason or other,
drive-in owners have discovered
that attendance is largest in their
business on nights when the moon
is full. Naturally. considering how
rarely the moon is full in any one
month, you cannot leave a thing
like that to the caprice OF nature.
So, they will have full synthetic
moonlight, if not full moons, every
night.
Motion Picture Herald's depart
ment, What the Picture Did for
Me-" proves that movie exhibitors
(the critics in this instance) are
tough on more than the fea-

In these blunt words:
THE trailer is a natural way to
kill this picture at the boxoftlce.
