Traveling Clinic Brings Health to Children
THE NEW WORD

• If little Johnny or Mary, living in a remote section of the 1,094 square miles included in the large
Los Angeles school district, has a toothache, infected tonsils, bad eyes, or any minor physical ailment, his
parents don’t worry. 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.

on their journeys. Billy was going
to a distant brook. Little Joe was
going to the Big River. Both in
tended to stay away until they
were sure the trapper, who had
just begun to make trouble along
the Laughing Brook, would be so
discouraged that he would take up
his traps
When Jerry had said good-by to
Billy Mink and Joe Otter there
stranger. 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. M
I thought Jerry. “He’s trying to find
out where I am in the habit of go
ing so that he may set traps there
It's clear to me that from now on
I shall have to watch my step ev

Catching the dice is a game that
looks easy but proves impossible
when people try it, unless they
know the secret.
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.

Slice any rich candy bar very

Moisten chopped figs with orange
juice and a bit of lemon juice,
heated over water until smooth,
add chopped peanuts and use for
a sandwich spread.
Spread small crackers with
quince jelly and sprinkle with
chopped walnuts; cover with an
other cracker.
Fancy cakes and cookies may
serve for dessert in an emergency.
Small ginger cookies, put together
with melted marshmallows or any
good candy bar. Vanilla wafers
made into sandwiches with melted
peanut candy or caramels softened
to spread. Crackers with white of
egg, chopped marshmallows and
nuts baked in a quick oven make
delightful little cakes to serve with
a cup of tea or chocolate.
A few cans of pineapple on the
emergency shelf will be found most
desirable for any number of dishes.
It is ready in the form of rich
slices to be used as they are with
meats, or shredded, or in small
cans in cubes to be used as garnish
for frozen dishes and other des

Crab meat is one of the most

for a midnight snack, a sandwich
or tn the form of a cocktail. For
the latter three tableapuonfuls of
catsup. two tabiespoonfuls of
horseradish, one tablespoonful of
Worcestershire sauce and salt to

For simple head lettuce salad

make ideal salad dressings.

“Grs.idmother” clocks are more
entitled to their name than “grand

the exception of the face, are carved

P ETE SMITH of Metro-Gold-
wyn-Maycr, who's made a
name for himself with his short
subjects, bought a film made by
an amateur on sixteen millimeter
film, remade it on thirty-five mil
limeter, and liked the result so
well that he is putting on a nation
wide contest for such subjects.
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.

It comes easily to
him because he

If you are among the many who

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.

Bette Davis has been having her
