Tilt of Nose Is
Enough To Give
One Girl Chance
HOLLYWOOD. Cal. P) Against
the ttlt of a woman's nose, a revolu
tion in industry Is nothing.
Less than - a year ago. Broadway
still was moving to Hollywood be
cause the movies hod started talking.
And Maureen O'Sulllvan was an ob
scure little Irish girl In Ireland.
The screen had reached the peak
of Its transition from silent to ar
ticulate acting. Producers were in
r, whirl, including Prank Borzage,
director.
Besides working to make the
talkies speak for themselves more
effectively, Borzage was In Ireland
directing scenes for John McCor
inack's first picture.
Then he saw Maureen Sulli
van's profile. And despite all the
changes the movies were under
going and all his other worries, he
signed her to a contract to appear in
4 ine MCLormocic anaotner films.
The result is a record for Mau
reen the quickest rise, it Is held.
of any girl without previous train
ing from an absolute "unknown" to
featured player.
Maureen was living, 10 months
ago in Killlney, 6100' miles from
Hollywood. Just post 20, she spent
her life riding with her parents In
p. small imported car and going to
Dublin, 11 miles away, to shop or
to attend the Metropole theater and
dance nt the Plaza restaurant.
At the Metropole she saw Amer
ican talkies. At the Plaza she heard
the only modern jazz orchestra in
Dublin.
While dancing. Borzage saw her.
The tilt of her nose and her other
typical Irish characteristics won
him.
Up to the sudden frenzied mo
ment of her discovery, Maureen had
no desire or Immediate hope of be
coming a talkie actress. She took the
test offered by Borzage on a dare of
friends. Then came to America.
Following McCormack's "Song O'
My Heart" she was with Will Rogers
in "So This Is London," and now has
a part in "Just Imagine."
They say here she's proving quite
useful in that revolution in the
movies which her nose helped bring
about.

'." LOCKJAW
Nowadays lockjaw, or tetanus, as
It Is technically known, is a rare
disease except on or about July 4.
Then, because of dirt contamination
of pistol and other wounds, there
usually are many deaths from lock
jaw. The disease is due to a germ known
as tetanus bacillus. Many wbunds
caused by Fourth of July fireworks
are of the puncture type that Is,
they reach fairly deeply Into the
flesh, but the skin oloses over them.
This type of wound favors the de
velopment of the tetanus bacillus,
for the bacillus thrives when not
exposed to the air.
The tetanus bacillus belongs to a
small group of micro-organisms
which injure man through a specific
poison, or toxin, which they pro
duce.
In a sense this poison Is like
the venom of a snake. It gains en
trance Into the body, and Is spread
through the circulation of the blood.
It affects certain tissues In the
body, mainly the nerve tissues, and
when present in suffcient quanti
ties, produces death.
The tetanus bacillus Is common
and widespread. It Is a soli bacil

OF CONSTIPATION
A Battle " Creek physician says.
"Constipation is responsible for mere
misery than any other cause."
But immediate relief has been
found. A tablet called Rexall Order
lies has been discovered. This tablet
attracts water from the system Into
the lazy, dry, evacuation bowl called
the colon. The water loosens the dry
food waste and causes . a gentle,
thorough, natural movement without
forming a habit or ever increasing the
dose.

In the United States the soil of the
Atlantic states is especially con
taminated with the gorm the west

relatively free.
The prevention of W tan us de
pends first upon the cleanliness or
wounds, and second on the prompt
administration of tetanus antitoxin.
Ail puncture wounds and wounds
into which dirt of any sort, or
shredc of cloth have gained en
trance should be regarded with sus
picion. Antiseptics alone are not to
bo trusted as a preventive of teta

and sun. and free bleeding are more
dependable.
But, as our war experience dem

Chats With
Parents
QUIET HOUR
By Alice Judsuit Pealc
The long summer days tempt
children to play out of doors until
dark. For some reason or other the
hour before bedtime is the one in
which they usually choose to play the
most violent and exciting games.
They show a tendency to become
nervously stimulated and to work
themselves up to the highest pitch
of excitement. Natural as this is,
it is generally considered best for
children to be quiet at this partic
ular time.
For this reason mothers would
do well tc plan always for a pleas
ant, quiet hour at home.
This Is the hour for story -telling
and talk, for reading, for playing
with puzzles and crayons. Older
children will perhaps enjoy doing
some kind of hand work. Quiet,
sitting down games are in order.
Children who have been accus
tomed to running around and play
ing violently Just before going to
bed probably will object at first to
being brought Indoors to what may
seem to them Insipid occupation.
Mother therefore must be care
ful to make the diversions of quiet
.hour appear as real privileges re
served only for that particular time
of day. and therefore to be looked
forward to with anticipation. i
Her success In making her chil
dren accept such a regime depends
wholly upon her skill in putting
over the Idea.
It is. In all probability, the one
opportunity of the day for the flow
of friendly. Intimate conversation
between parents and child that re
assures the child of his security in
their love and sets him right with
his world.
ROOSEVELT IS
A STUDENT OF
EASTERN LIFE
NEW YORK .iTT) Dwlght W. Davis,
governor general of the Philippines,
got a new tennis partner when Nich
olas Roosevelt was appointed vice
governor.
Although not a tournament player.
Roosevelt will offer a good foil to the
thrusts of the donor of tho Davis
cup, friends say.
And after their tennis match. If
something Is wrong with the garden.
Roosevelt can attend to that, too. His
one real hobby is the garden and
grounds ...qu .his " summer home at
Hewlett, on tho south shore of Long
Island.
Roosevelt, an editorial writer on the
New York Times from 1923 until his
appointment, has long been a close
student of far eastern affairs. He
was a great admirer of the policies of
Gen. Leonard Wood, who was gover
nor of the far eastern possession for
several years.
Born 37 years ago ot Oyster Bay,
Long Island, his father was a first
cousin of President Roosevelt and
one of his closest personal advisors.
Young Nicholas grew up in an at
mosphere of national and interna
tional affairs.
He spent scvoral months In Manila
as General Wood's guest and made
an intensive study of the Philippines.
Graduated from Harvard In 1014,
Roosevelt was attached to. the em
bassy at Paris when war was de
clared. He enlisted in the American
army, achieving the rank of captain.
During the peace conference he was
a military olde to President Wilson.
He was only an average student,
but rowed on his class crew, played a
good game of squash and tennis, and
wos popular with his fellow students.
Unmarried, during the winter he
lives with his mother at the family
estate at Oyster Bay.
tVHKSTI.KKS "TAKK" TEXAS
AFTER IIOXINU IS BANNED
DALLAS Swarming over the
state almost like a cloud of locusts,
the wrestlers have "tahen" Texas, all
in the space of a year.
Since Gov. Dan Moody's antl-bo'x-Ing
edict, the popularity of the mat
bouts has grown to such an extent
that public agitation for the return
of the glove game has become
scarcely audible.
Hardly a town In the state large
enough to support a paid fire de
partment that does not have its
weekly grappling cards, with at least
one "champion" appearing on each
program.
One reason for the rapid growth of
the mat game in Texas lies in the
fact that it was organized on a state
wide scale with a minimum of fric
tion among the promoters.

Hog shipments are being sent out
of this county each week by the
stock marketing association. Farmers
who are lucky enough to have hogs
the right size for fattening off at this
time feel that they are assured of
getting fairly high prices for them.
There has been a keen demand for
stock hogs here during the entire
summer and some pigs have been
sold at very good prices.
Oscar Maxwell finished putting up
his hay at his farm in Middle val

has ripened up very rapidly during
the past week and but few green
spots are seen in any of the fields.
Some binding of spring wheat has
been done during the past week.
Oats and barley crops are somewhat
slower in ripening and much of this
class of grain will not be ready for
binding for two or three weeks. Hay
crops in general in the Irrigated
