For soon the traveling healthmobile, the only one of its kind in America, will be along with its staff of oculist, dentist, and nurse. The unique healthmobile is a part of the medical service fur nished the Los Angeles schools, and which penetrates to every little hamlet and community in the vast em pire of the school district. The carload of health constantly travels from school to school, filling teeth, tak ing out tonsils, testing eyes, and caring for children who would otherwise be neglected. T ODAY perhaps you heard A word You never heard befojp, Yet think there is rro land At hand For mortals to explore, Behold a continent, Content To leave it still unknown, When you the trail might take And make That land, that word, your own. Oh, never let the word You heard Remain a mystery. Right then take down the book And look. Yes, look it up to see. For, there is more to hold Than gold, Another wealth to reach, A fortune for the mind To find— It is a wealth of speech. © Dour]as Malloch.—W.\l) Servlr#. r************* BEDTIME STORY FOR CHILDREN By THORNTON W.

This stranger kept stop ping and examining every old log in the water and every hole along the bank. He stopped at three of Jerry's favorite eating places and studied them. Jerry knew just what | that meant. “That’s that dreadful trapper.

A small cup is held in one hand. The thumb and Angers encircle the cup; between them, they hold a small cube; one of a pair of dice The second cube is placed upon the first. The object is to toss each of the dice separately, catching them one by one tn the cup; and keeping them there. Thus the fun begins; for after the first cube is bagged, the tossing of the second causes the first to jump out. The way to do the trick Is not to toss the second cube at all. Sim ply release it. Swoop downward with the cup and catch the last of the dice while it is falling.

Theater executives and repre sentatives of film-selling companies all over the country will send the best films submitted to them by amateur movie makers to Mr. Smith, and he’ll pick the winners. George Arliss is busy in England making “East Meets West,” and his brother, Fred H. Andrews, is equally busy at the same studio. He is advising the producers on Orien tal matters connect ed with the picture. It comes easily to him because he used to be curator of the Lahore mu seum. The veteran George Arliss English character star continues to be a favorite with American movie goers. His pictures have invari ably been interesting and the movie public is looking forward to his version of “East Meets West.” —a— Imagine the feelings of one of our foremost movie stars when, as she motored through a small city recently, she saw oae of her latest and best pictures advertised on the marquee of a theater—along with another feature, the Louis-Schmel- ing fight pictures, and the S5M that was the evening's Bank Night award.

If you are among the many who never fail to tunc in on Colonel Stoopnagle and Bud. you may have I wondered why they omitted Mr Bopp, one of the most amusing characters on their broadcasts, the first time they substituted for the vacationing Fred Allen. The Colonel had his tonsils out a few days before the broadcast. And he plays Mr. Bopp, which is very hard on the voice. You may recall that Merle Ober- on was slated for “The Garden of Allah” till Marlene Dietrich came ” along and got the role Merle was up set, and decided to sue the producers. The matter was settled out of court very nicely. Miss O b e r o n rect ived $10,000 in addition to the $12,000 which she got before she lost the pan. And she’s to do an£ther picture, “It Happened in Holly wood,” which will bring in another $60,000. Not so bad. Bette Davis has been having her troubles. Her salary and the kind of roles assigned her caused the difficulty, and, after she failed to show up for three weeks to work in “God’s Country and the Woman” she was suspended by Warner Brothers. _a— ODDS AND ENDS . ..
