The Feminine Touch
METHOD WITH NAILS

YWOOD-Ann SOthern
maintains that there is a proper
way to shape the fingernails
when filing so that no little
frayed pieces are left along the
edges to mar their well-groom-
ed look.
The actress, whose latest pic
ture is "Words and Music, !"
shapes her nails with a long
stroke toward the center of the
nail using an emery board.
She uses the coarse side first
to shorten the nails, and then
the fine side to shape and
smooth them. If you are just
shaping the nail without short
ening it, Miss Sothern recon-
mends using only the finer side
of the emery board. Run it
lightly over the nail and shape
from the tip out.
After shaping, bevel the top
edge of the nail with the fine
side of the emery, holding it
flat to remove any rough edges.

Intentional, for they are the pic
lures which are called "fan-
tastes"
In recent years, fantasies and
films of imagination have be-
come more and more popular
with both producers and fans.
Where, ten or twelve years ago,
Hollywood produced one fan
tasy to every twenty-five regu-
lar features, today the ratio is
much smaller.
Being products of the imagi-
nation and never confined to
rhyme or reason, the subject
matter of the fantasies has an
unlimited range. Sam Goldwyn's
"The Bishops Wife" which
starred Cary Grant, Loretta
Young and David Niven, fea-
tured an angel who came to
earth to straighten things out.
Paramount's "Alias Nick Beal"
new film starring Ray Milland,
Audrey Totter and Thomas Nit
chell, does just the opposite. It
has devil who comes up from
some place the Johnston office
never heard of and tries to mess
things up.
Different Types
While the principal object of
these fantasies is to entertain,
their producers do not overlook
the opportunity to drive home
moral or two. RKO's current
THE Boy With Green Hair" for
example, points up the fact that
bloody wars never really solve
anything.
Not all fantasies contain mes
sages, of course. A good many of
them are made for the sheer fun
of it. The Topper" series, which
were made ten years ago by Hal
Roach, had no more reason be-
hind them than the fun it gave
its writers to play around with a
couple of mischievous ghosts.
Some fantasies provoke con-
siderable thought. Back in 1884
Paramount made a film called
Death Takes a Holiday" which
based its premise on the intrigu-
ing idea that nothing could die
while Death, played by Frederic
March, was on a holiday.
There is saying, among

porting personnel.
Recently l heard Gener'
.ninistration in Washington,
D. c., say there are only
about six thousand new doc
tors being graduated fr o m
school each year. This is insult
ficient.
Thousands of young men and
some women are clamoring to
attend medical school every year
but only a handful will realize
their hope. This situation needs
correcting, and it needs to be
corrected quickly.
Condemning unjustly, and be
rating medicine, to my mind is
the wrong way to solve our
problem. All of us know doctors
do other work than examining
the throats of smokers trying to
fSind irritation caused by smok-
ing cigarettes. This is contrary
to radio reports.
In the event of war a null
titude of doctors will, of neces-
sity, be in the Armed Services,
The doctors who remain to care
for the civilian population will
be spread very thin-they can
only do a token job.
If we ever have atomic war
fare our medical situation be-
comes more complex. Vast seq
ments of our population would
be without competent medical
and hospital attention
When any of us need a doc
tor or physician we find their
services tn most valuable thing
in the world. But the time has
come-and it is here noW-for
the American Medical Associa-
ton to wake up. If the ASso-
ciation will not help alleviate
shortage of doctors and ply
tians, then undoubtedly meas
ures will be taken by others to
correct the circumstances.
Many u. S. Senators and Rep
resentatives are becoming alarm
ed at what is transpiring in
medicine in this country. There
are indications some careful and
rational plan must be inaugur-
ated for the education and train
ing of an adequate supply Of
doctors and physicians. If medi-
cine will not do this then the
government must and if you
know the minds of doctors you
know they are allergic to any
so-called government interfer-
ence.
In Toledo we are fortunate,
we have one doctor to about
every 612 persons. This is better
nan most cities - much better
than Cleveland as an example.
This is a very potent argument
in getting our cancelled Vet
erans Hospital reinstasted for
construction.
1t makes little difference what
better health plans are made
by the state, the Federal Gov
ernment or by private initiative
If we have a continual shortage
of doctors. However, if we do
not have enough medical col
leges and training schools to
close the gaps between the need
and supply of doctors and ply
sicans, now is the time to start
corrective measures.
During the last 20 years our
country has improved its health
record but the people still suffer
Nvere losses thru sickness, dis
Sility and death which is I'M
necessary. This record is not
being helped by scarcity of
doctors especially when govern
ment reports tell us that every
year over 325,0O0 people die
whom we have the knowledge
and skis to save.
No nation can allow such con-
ditions to exist when we have
tire means to correct them.
