PSQE FOUR !NfEDFORT) MATTJ TRTBTjyni!, MEDFORD', 'P'REOON',' WEDNESPXY, MAY 14, 1M, SENIOR STUDENTS ADD TO LAURELS IN 'PAIR OF SIXES' (By Eva Xertlon) The Medford high Bchool may not have put out any football heroes In the clans of J 930 but the members of that "august or ganization" have attained nufflci ent achievements in other linen to please the Carnegie board of In vetitigatkin. Proof of the latter has been brought to Med ford people through oratorical, song and extemporaneous speaking con tents and debates of late, but lout nlght'H presentation of "A Pair of Sixes," three-act farce by Edward Peple, at the Craterlan theatre, added the last straw to our convic tions In this year's graduating claw Medford high school holds "a royal flush." It was by far the best show we've ever seen high school stu dents present and we have seen "plenty" (or thought that wo had until last night). It was not a question of remembering or for getting lines, the members of the 11)30 elnss acted until the final curtain, when they presented MIhh Isabel W II Isle, who jtuged the show, with a bouquet of flowers, which was well deserved, The stnge hnnds of course had a little curtain trouble but otherwise the show moved forward with rollick ing spued until the close , of the third act, with very few knocks or splutters. Pills, always a topic for muoh talk, pro and con, inspired the nrguments In which George 11. Nettleton (Norrls Porter) and T. Hoggs Johns (Charles Thomas), owners of the Eureka Digestive Pill company entertulned the uud lence. No one could definitely any whether It's the Inside or the out side of the pill "that counts" when the debate ended, but all were certain Porter and Thomas exhib ited plenty of temper for an lionest-td-goodness row. Merland Tullefson as the "Hell of a lawyer," Thos. J. Vanderholt, was suave enough for one of that profession. His scheme for win ning the heart of Miss Florence Cole, who was delightfully por trayed by Margaret Melting, fell through without causing him any obvious agony. Alberta WIrth as Mrs.- George Nettleton was the gentle wife until the most critical moment arose nnfl then had a characteristic ner COFFEE FLAVOR AND STRE N GTH ARESAVE D IN THIS TESTED VACUUM When you open a can of MJ.B,the full fragrant aroma of cof fee, "Fresh from the Roaster" greets you. Twelve -cylindered vacuum machines owned, patented and used exclusively by M'JB Co. preserve every bit of the natu ' ral coffee goodness in a Hi-Test Vacuum. The very richness of , M'J-B enables you to use less coffee per cup and still be sure of superb flavor at every serving. Try this richer coffee flavor today. Insist on M'J'B Coffee in the green and gold can.. vous chill, which was alhO realistic. Cltf Lord as Tony Toler, salesman, and Tom Emmens as M Apple gate were dapper and dashing enough for a place In Vanity Fair. Miss Sally Parker, the stenogra pher, pluyed by Amy porf, was just another proof that "Gun tie men Prefer Blondes." And Dor othy Whltmun as Coddles, an Eng lish maid of all work, showed per sistency capable of destroying all their faith In the safety of bru nettes. Krome, the bookkeeper (Millard Younger) the shipping clerk (Hob Chrlstner) und Jimmy, the office boy (Hudd Gull) all added humor to the situations whiefl arose in the offices of the owners of the violent violet pills before the poker hand was dealt which left Nettleton with "A Pulr of ixes" nnd Johns the profession of butler. The re-adjustntent of the havoc evoked by the poker game offered opportunity for some love scenes, which showed high school folks know u thing or two about that tu t also. 4 Harry Green Stars in Western Picture Hurry Green has gone western The dialect comedian of "Close Harmony," 'Kibitzer" and "Honey" Is seen In the part of "Pie-Pan" Pultsi In the Knne Grey story "The Light of West ern a t a r s, which Is no w playing at the Fox Jtlalto the ater, with Rich ard Arlen In the leading role As a man of the wide open spaces, Green is In an entirely novel environ ment.

STORE AROUND THE CORNER ' IS SOURCE OF FINE DESSERTS Housewives Have Choice of Wide Variety at Low Prices Desserts, according to nutrition experts, have their place in the normal diet. Aside from their food value, their sweetness satisfies the appetite in an appropriate way. Modern methods have been ap. Slied to the manufacture and istribtition of wbjilesome desserts so that tho housewife does not need" tj make them herself. Pure, deli cious ice creauf is always available nt a low price. So are cakes, ies jml cookies. And of course there is always a wide variety of. fresh und canned fruits. In summer, when It is the de sire of every housewife to reduce kitchen-work to a minimum, the opportunity to get well-made, whole some desserts at "the store around tho corner' should not bo over looked. Any one that is chosen will make the most simple, inex pensive meal complete As wholesome desserts satisfy the appetite appropriately, so docs sugar improve tnste-appeal of es sential foods. A dash of sugar to a pinch of salt In cooking vegetables makes them pleasing carriers of the vitamins, minerals ain roughage they contain. The same is true when sugar is added to breakfast cereals or fresh and stewed fruits. Mo' foods are more delicious nirt? nourishing with sugar.

"The close-up is the final test of a star's popularity," he goes on to say, "since practically no make-up is pos sible. 4 "Only a perfect skin, exquisitely smooth and fine, can stand, the blaz ing lights." Never was this more true than since the talkies, with their hundreds of close ups, "arrived." Un less a girl has the smoothest, the most exquisite skin, she can scarcely hope to go far. It is because lovely smooth skin is so vital to the screen stars that 511 of the 521 im portant Hollywood L1LYAN T uses tliis actresses, including oil stars, use Lux Toilet Soap. It was at their request that all the great film studios have made it the official soap for their dressing rooms. The stage stars, famous in Broadway successes, have also been using Lux Toilet Soap for a long time and never were they so grateful to its gentle care of their skin as since so many of them havebeenplayinginthe talkingand sing, ing pictures.
