She had been under the care
of a physician since she was
taken ill more than a year ago,
but, while subject to a regime
of limited exertion, she had
been able to supervise her house
keeping and receive her friends
and go on occasional drives
about the village. On several
days recently she directed, from
her seat on the porch, the set
ting out of flowers near the
grass which Mr.. leClair had
planted for her a few weeks ago.
One day last week, when she
returned from having a hair-do
at the Beauty Box on West
Franklin street, she walked into
a neighbors yard to get close
up view Of the flowers there:
iris, tulips, daffodils, forget-me-
nots, pansies. lilies-of-the-valley,
and violets. She said she had had
tantalizing glimpses Of them
over the rock wall and through
the hedge, and now she was
going to see the whole display
without anything to obstruct
the view.
She read for several hours
every day. She listened to the
radio. She was zestful and
sprightly in conversation. She
kept brave spirit all the time
On the last day of her life
she went about the house as
usual and chatted gaily with
friends who came in and with
others who called over the tele-
phone. The end came quickly, and
without suffering, just before
midnight.
The funeral services were
conducted at the home Tuesdsy y
afternoon by Rev. Henry John.

Mrs. Rees would have been 90
years old next month. Born in
Chapel Hill, she was the daugh-

sor of mathematics in the Uni
ver5ity, and Julia Hooper Graves
She is survived by her son, Penn
broke Rees, an aviation engineer
of st. Louis, and two brothers
Col. Ernest Graves, u. S. Army
Engineers, of Washington, and
Louis Graves Of Chapel Hill. Her
father died in her infancy, and
her mother died in 1914 at the
age of SO. Her eldest brother;
Ralph H. Graves, who was city
editor and Sunday editor of the
New York Times, died in 1889.
After year in the University
here, in the class of 1909, she
studied art in Baltimore, Phila-

the first World War she made
war posters and drew sketches
for newspapers and magazines.
1t was after she came to live in
Chapel Hill in the 1920's that she
turned to portrait painting.
Her portrait of the late Ed

young looking and understanding
parents. These latter are the pals
of their children. They are not
at all stuffy about giving the
boys hot-rod cars to roar around
in, they do not mind their 18-
year-old daughters hopping off to
the beach for very private swim
with boys who are sound pros
poets, and apparently they will
throw parties for the kids at the
drop of suggestion.
All these details of life in
pretty California towns are slickly
photographed in Our Very Own"
1t is not impossible that parents
elsewhere will have to battle to
maintain their non-California
standards of child-rearing in view
of the films potential popularity.
In spite of the deceptive polish
of Our Very own" its cast is hard
put to give it the color of reality.
Miss Blyth undertakes a solid at
tack on the role of the heart
broken girl, but there never is
any doubt in your mind that her
tragedy is sheer dramatist's arti-
fee. That she should not come
through it purer, stronger and
more beautiful than ever is incon-
ceivable even when she is COM
pairing her actual hyperthyroid
mother with her adopted son.
Miss Blyth is admirably earnest
about her portrait of Gail which
somehow seems more than one
can say of such older hands as
Miss Wyatt and Actor Cook as the
parents of the shining Macaulay
brood.
Cooks most dramatic moments
are those in which he acts like a
man caught in a web of cotton
candy and a little fearful that he
will be suffocated.
He can have the consolation
however, that Producer Goldwyn
never misses at the boxof1ce when
family life is the theme of his
pictures.
The others in the cast are fetch
ing shadows, with the exception of
Natalie Wood who plays the brat
little sister.

6 That is why he has done it
again in Our Very Own" which
bpened at Keith's yesterday and
(which will prove one of the sea-
sson's most popular pictures if not
one ct it's best. The tale 1t tells
is about how the fine, upper mid
die class Macauley family ran
fead-on into an emotional crisis
ana met it with high heart and
good, sound common sense.
Everybody involved-Ann Blyth,
Farley Granger, Joan Evans, Jane
Wyatt and the like-is so beau
tful that any less happy ending
would be crime against Holly

F. Hugh Herbert, a screen
writer stepped in Sentimentallty
toward young people and their
problems, is author of Our Very
Own" which Mrs. Roosevelt her
self has called very important.
Tie drama that provides the
Macaulays with their crisis is
concentrated in the eldest daugh-
ter. Gail, played by Miss Blyth.
There could not be a nicer, love-
lier girl than Gail, Just turning
18. No sweet girl graduate could
be more deserving, and apparent
ly all good things are coming her
way. Her parents love her, SO
does Farley Granger, young man
with a future in merchandising
television sets, and she has room
of her own in the tidy Macauley
house. !
The single threat to her bliss
is the second sister in the family.
This pretty thing Joan Evans)
Is possessed by small, active devils.
One of these is jealousy and an
other is a kind of amorous precoc-
ity which constitute a threat to
the serenity of Calls romance.
The situation really explodes
when the younger sister discovers
Gail is adopted, tells her so in
moment of fury. and skaters the
secure world in which the Mac
aulays live. .--
The question thus raised. Of
course, is whether families should
make a secret of these technical
tiles of where its children come
from.
Oddly enough, having raised the
question, Our Very Own" neg
lects to answer it.
