NICHOLS United Pre" Fejture Writat Washington (U.R) What's new in Washington: Lassie, the movie and TV star, came io town, but the collie Cam late. Carlos Cas tillo Armas, the president of Guatemala got here first. Castilla Armas got a key to the city from the district c o m m i s ion ers. Lassie got a bone and went back to m a k i n c Der- ional appearances, tail wagging. BJU Haiman Nichols The lovely Pat Nixon, wife of the vice president, was seen walking down Washington's swank Connecticut Ave. the oth er day. Pat was dressed in a fashionable but simple brown tweed outfit. She oh-ed and ah-ed at the things for sale in the window. Hats with brown lace. Things like that. But Mrs. N. wasn't in a buying mood, it was about time to pick ' up the kids at school. The lovable poet, Robert Frost, was a guest speakr at the Library of Congress. After his recitation of some of his best known poems, somebody asked him how he came up with the title for "North Of Boston." He scratched his head and said: "I reckon I got it out of farm advertisements." Charles E. Wilson, our de fense secretary, came back from Geneva the other day and re porters noted that he was wear ing a homburg. 1 Photographers asked him to take off his new topper. He was disinclined. "You want' to look more like a businessman than a diplomat?" The lensmen said "Yes." The former executive of General Mo tors said "No." Usually, Wilson wears . a snap-brim hat, at a cocky angle. Around Hollywood By ALINE MOSBY United Press Correspondent Hollywood (U.R) Judy Holi day has decided to say farewell to the movies for two years and return to the stage because she misses "those laughs." The squeaky voiced blonde currently is delivering funny lines on the quiet set of the film ver- JUlne Mosby sion of Broad way's "The Solid Gold Cadillac." One more picture after this, Judy announced excitedly today, and she's out of school free from the studio for two years. She's returning to Broadway for her first musical and, she hopes, a happy 24 months of hearing jruffaws after her gags instead of the silence of the movie sound stages. Lookt for Laughs "I'm yearning to hear those laughs again," said Judy as a make-up man patted powder on her face between scenes. "Until you see a movie with an aud ience, you never know if you're funny. And then it's too late." Hollywood's favorite "dumb" blonde hasn't appeared on Broad way except for a limited revival of "Dream Girl," since her earth-shaking star debut as Billie Dawn in "Born Yester day." The movies swept up Judy, gave her an Oscar for the same role in the film and then launch ed her in a series of movies in which she played the same addle-pated type. Playg Another Blonde In "The Solid Gold Cadillac" she is another blonde with a surprised stare, a minority stock holder who winds up running the company and driving that car (painted gilt). But though Judy has sighed she would like to get away from wide-eyed blondes, I notice in her new stage musical, "The Bells are Ringing," she's at it again, this time as a dizzy swithboard operator. "I haven't had much choice," she admitted. "These are the parts offered me. There's always some kinship to Billie Dawn in any part they write for me. Some day I'd love a dramatic role." if' - "T HOG HEIST Bloomingsburg., O. (U.R) Somebody went to a lot of trouble to steal four hogs from Tom Parrett's farm. Sheriff Or land Hays said the thief drove a vehicle presumably a small truck, into Parrett's hog lot, loaded four hogs aboard and then got stuck. The thief then walked about three miles into town and stole a tractor, which he used to pull the truck out of the mud. The tractor was aban doned nearby. Newport, Ore. (U.R) The tun clipper Marne B. of Whid- bey Island, Wash., caught fire yesterday off Waldport, Ore., and was being towed here by the Coast Guard. As We Live By ELIZABETH HU1L0CK, PH.D. Should Any New Wife Take Such Criticism? When a husband criticizes his wife, should she ignore him, get angry, or try to do things as he thinks they should be done? (Q) "We were married in June and everything was fine until we went to visit my husband's folks in anoth er slate. Now we are home and my husb and is always criticizing the way I do things in the house, the food I serve him, nn It 5 Dr. Herlock shirts ven worse, he is always comparing me to his mother. Last night he said his mother cooked meat better than I do and always had homemade cakes instead of ones bought at the bakery. He ended up by saying , that if -1 would stay at home more, as his mother does, instead of gad ding about (I had been at a church meeting to plan our Christmas bazaar) he might get some 'decent' food. "I was so mad I fell like packing my bags and leaving. I love my husband and want to make a success of our marriage but should any wife take this criticism? If I just ignore him, will he see that I have no in tention of allowing his mother to set the pattern for our home? What would you suggest?" Mrs. R. T. (A) I would try to handle this problem in such a way as to avoid friction. Nothing will kill love more quickly than constant hard feelings between a husband and wife. Naturally you do not want to use your mother-in-law as a pat tern. However, there may be many things you could learn from her as she is,' unquestion ably, a more experienced house keeper than you. Why not ask her to give you the recipes for your husband's favorite dishes and then try to make them as she does? As there are only two of you, you should have time to make cake instead of serving your husband bakery products. Invite your mother-in-law to visit you and get her to show you how to do things as your husband likes them. She can, for example, show you how to do up his shirts and cook food as he likes it. If this will put an end to the criticism, it will be well worth the effort.

WHITE HEARING AIDS 131 West Main CORDS BATTERIES REPAIRS FOR ALL MAKES On The Side , By E. V. DURLING (Distributed by King Features Syndicate. Inc.) Are you an adherent of twin beds for the married? Or do you favor the double bed? If you have a double bed at your house, how much room do you have to sleep in? The average double bed is 54 inches in width. That gives each occupant 27 inches to sleep in. It is said nobody can sleep comfortably unless they have at least 30 inches in bed width to sleep in. I favor twin beds that are double beds. There is no law says a twin bed can't be as large as a double bed. However, I would settle for a large bed for the husband and a small bed for his cute little wife. Or, I might consider one of those king size double beds that have a zipper in the cen ter which makes it possible to turn them into two single beds at any time. That Haircut Recently I referred to a ton sorialist who features what he calls "a physiognomical hair cut." This is a haircut adapted to the shape of the customer's head and face. Several sub scribers who have had such a hair clip speak very highly of it. They say it is a great im prover of the appearance. Think I'll try one myself. Asides ' The pumpkin pie season is on.

To keep his nerves steady, Hoppe has never indulged in alcoholic liquors or tobaccos. To preserve his eyesight he has never attended films, looked at television or read the newspa pers. Asking Queries from clients. Q. Who were the featured players in the "Ziegfeld Follies of 1924"? A. Will Rogers, Ann Pennington, Lupino Lane and Imogene Wil son. . . . Q. You frequently claim to be infalible as a judge of ac tresses, solid horses for show and 3rd basemen. Who is your choice for the greatest third sacker of all time? A. "Pie" Traynor. . . . Q. In what play and what thea ter did Lionel Barrymore and Doris Rankin co-star in 1919? A. Lionel and Doris did not co-star in the year you mention. It was in 1918 that they were featured in the play titled The Copper head," at the Shubert Theater. In 1919 Lionel was co-starred with his brother John in "The Jest," at the Plymouth Theater. Incidentally, the portrayal of Milt Shanks in "The Copper head" is considered Lionel Bar rymore's greatest performance. Bricklayers Note a reference to a New York bricklayer who has been earning S130 a week. He is 23. Any reference to the high wages of eastern bricklayers inspires objections from those so en gaged. They say their work is "seasonal." Also that they do not work on rainy days. Why can't a bricklayer work at some thing else in the winter? Why couldn't he have a small busi ness on the side? The work of professional ballplayers is sea sonal but most of them have other jobs or own a business enterprise of some kind. Quotes From the News By UNITED PRESS Washington Republican National Chairman Leonard W. Hall on Adlai Stevenson's announcement that he will seek .the 1956 Democratic presidential nomination: "The people repudiated Mr. Stevenson and everything he stands for in 1952. They will repudiate him again should he get the nomination next year." Miami Sen. Estes Kefauver (D.-Tenn.) a probable candidate himself, on Stevenson's announcement: "It is a good thing for Stevenson lo run and to announce his candidacy early." Denver Neal Wright, guard captain at Denver county jail where John Gilbert Graham is being held on charges that he time-bombed a United Air lines plane sending 44 persons to their deaths: "He seems to feel he'll get out of the position he's in and he talked like he's quite hopeful of making his bond and getting out of jail." 1 1 Miami Florida State Highway Patrol Director H. N. Kirk man, in a pre-Safe Driving Day statement: "There are two types of pedestrians today the quick and the dead." Los Angeles Actor and former narcotics addict Bela Lugosi, testifying before a Senate subcommittee on pushers who try to get young people to sell narcotics: "They are selfish, greedy people who are only interested in money. Whether they are dressed as angels or not they are real devils in disguise murderers." Hollywood Blonde actress Jil Jarmyn who withdrew a re quest for a battery complaint against redhaired film star Susan Hayward following a fight between the two: "I've been through a humiliating experience and I want to for get it. I don't want to relive it again." New 4-H Group Planned al Phoenix A new 4-H club to be organ ized in Phoenix will hold an organizational meeting Nov. 18 at 8 p.m., at the Phoenix Com munity hall.

Yet you don't hesitate to buy one without getting so much as a look at the intricate "works" that makes it run. How do you dare make such an important purchase without having an expert check it over for you? What makes you so sure you're getting your money's worth when you say, "I'll take that one"? The answer's obvious. You look for the brand name on the refrigerator your "guarantee." You've learned to follow thin first rule of safe and sound buying: A good brand is your best guarantee No matter what kind of product you want to buy, you know a good brand won't let you down. You know the maker stands back of it guar antees it. And so, when you buy a good brand you know you're right. Read this newspaper to find out which are the good brands (and the stores that sell them.) The more good brands you know, the surer you are about all your shopping.
