THE GARBLE GIRLS ...
“Do you think they’ll pin any
thing on Mickey Rooney for losing
that bottle of uranium in that fight
with Scott Lucas over American
aid to the Taft-Hartley act?"
“It's an even bet. Mickey had no
business giving that jug to Mrs.

for the honorary degree. By the
way, what do you think of Mar-
gareto’ Vickers marrying the Ago
Lilienthal?”
“Yon mean the Aly Acbeson,
don’t you?”

UT of the noise and clamor of the town
I have come down
To this green pafture land where sheep
Graze in the golden light.
Where shadows creep
As deliberately as they across the grass.
The slow hours pass.
And I am one with the rhythm and the rhyme
Of this Still land, this quiet time;
Even my hurrying heart has Stayed its pace
Within this quiet place.
Time is nothing here—the sun, the moon.
Come neither late nor soon;
There is no change in the ways of sheep.
They have kept
Step with the ages, hurrying not at all.
And no relentless call
Bids them keep
Appointment with the hours. If I could Say
Day after day
Here in this clean green land, perhaps I, too.
Could be more true
To the movement of the years; could inarch with
time
Until the far sublime
Music of the spheres
Would reach my ears.
And I could keep the tempo my life through

D AN DURYEA (real name) has
made his reputation on stage
and screen as a h e e L He has
slapped Joan Bennett, Lizabeth
Scott and Yvonne De Carlo. In
“Manhandled,” his latest film for
Paramount, he twice delivers a
short right to Dorothy Lamour’s

slicker or slimier. In real life he's
one of the nicest guys you could
ask to meet, devoted to his wife
and two young sons, active in PTA
DAN DURYEA
And with the Boy and Cub scouts.
He played a cur on the stage in
“Missouri Legend," which set him
for a similar role in “The Little
Foxes” on stage and screen. In
some 25 pictures he has given such
excellent performances that some
one’s description, "a heel with sex
appeal,” will probably type him
forever.
If Alexander Knox doesn’t like
his role in “The Judge Steps Out”
it will be his own fault; he col
laborated on the screen play. A
reporter for 12 years before taking
to the stage, he starts his 10th year
in films with this one.
Ben Johnson, star of “Mighty
Joe Young,” was the favorite
stunt man of Gary Cooper,
Errol Flynn, Johnny Weismul
ler and most of Hollywood’s
oilier male stars before John
Ford and Merian Cooper dis
covered him in “Fort Apache.”
He was doing stunts for the
picture on location at Monu
ment Valley, Utah — now he’s
starring In titeir new picture.
In one of the biggest deals in
radio history ABC has arranged
with Ted Collins for a new series
of shows, “Kate Smith’s Music

records, discuss songs and com
posers and present nationally
known guest stars. Said to be a
$5,000,000 deal. The show will run
from 9 to 11 p. m. beginning July ^
4, but will not affect Kate’s two
MBS shows.
“Oh. I go to the races and base

Mary Margaret at Stadium
The Yankee stadium was hired
the other day for an anniversary
party thrown for Mary Margaret
McBride, famous radio star. More
than 42,000 people attended. That’s
more than half the rival Yankee
baseball clubs draw.
*
It was a sensational affair and
Miss McBride scored standing up.
It wasn’t necessary for her to slide,
although it would have pleased the
fans no end.
•
And if she had had to slide
she could have done it. Mary
(Happy) McBride has the base
ball spirit. She can hit and
field. No position is beyond
her. If you take note of the
countless commercials the lady
has delivered for dinner-table
edibles you have to admit no
body has been more versatile
"behind the plate” over so long
a period.
•
Mary is in her way a pitcher, too.
She has never had to be yanked off
the mound in her career with the
NBC club. Her greatest asset is her
control. There is almost no wind up
in her delivery. Smoothness marks
her style.
•
Mary has a “chuckle ball,”
also, that is the talk of the
league and her “nonchalant
curve” is a wonder. She can
fan ’em all with either.
•
The lady is a good all-around
player, too. Shortstop taxes her,
but every other position is duck-
soup—and she will name the brand
of ^nok soup and tell you where to
get it.
The
Fiction MISTER GILL
By
Richard H. Wilkinson
Corner
A T FIRST Mr. Otis Gill had
seemed to take a liking to
young Arthur Forbes. But he
changed his opinion when the
Champion began to buck the
choppy seas of the open Atlantic.
She was not a large liner, and the
waves were running high. Arthur
Forbes turned away suddenly and,
clutching the deck rail for sup
port shaped an unsteady course for
the companionway.
Mr. Gill burst into guffaws of
laughter.
“SeasickI” he said, addressing a
young couple nearby and nodding
toward the
companionw a y.
3 'Minute “Should have
Fiction sta j yed , ?\ om , e
and tended to
his knitting.”
The young couple smiled politely
but with a lack of enthusiasm.
Neither of them felt equal to the
task of getting up and following on
young Arthur Forbes’ heels.
The dining salon was located be
neath the forward deck; Mr. Gill’s
table was at the extreme end, near
that section where the vessel’s bow
began to narrow. He had hardly
seated himself when he saw that
young Arthur Forbes was placed
two tables away and slightly be
hind. There was a plate of food on
the table before the youth, but it
was untouched. Like one in a trance
Mr. Forbes was sitting with eyes
widened greatly beyond their
normal size, cheeks as pale as
death.
After a time Mr. Gill saw
that the youth at the other
table was staring toward a
port-hole, and his grin broad
ened. The port-hole was lo
cated far forward, and with
each dip of the vessel one could
see the entire slope of a wave,
from trough to crest. Then for
a space there would be nothing
but open sky. It provided a
sensation similar to riding on
a roller coaster.
Mr. Gill knew that as long as
young Forbes continued to stare
through the port-hole his seasick
ness would steadily grow worse.
And he chuckled at the thought.
After a while Mr. Gill found it
was easier to stare straight ahead
than to sit half-turned in his chair
in order to watch young Forbes,
who, after all, wasn’t the most
pleasing sight in the world. And in
staring straight ahead Mr. Gill
found that he was looking directly
through the porthole at the swish
ing seas.
H E WATCHED idly for a few mo
ments and then looked away,
conscious of a feeling in his stom
ach not wholly normaL The sen
sation passed and he looked again
at the port-hole, feeling more com
fortable in this position. Instantly
the same strange sensation at
tacked him again.
Mr. Gill was sober now; his face
pale; his eyes glassy. Realization
of what was happening to him came
like a shock. He was seasick!
Helplessly, miserably ill. Never in
his life could Mr. Gill remember
feeling so utterly at the mercy of
anything.
Miraculously Mr. Gill
reached the doorway and dis
appeared up the stairs. Instant
ly the dining salon was a bed
lam of laughter. Up toward the
bow young Arthur Forbes was
wiping some white substance
from his cheeks and grinning
broadly. Several men came
over and spoke.
“I’ll change your order, sir.
Bring you some hot food.”
Mr. Forbes smiled. “Thanks.
And say, steward, that was a smart
idea of yours—asking me to play
the role of the helplessly seasick
passenger and placing GUI at that
table directly opposite the port
hole.”
The steward nodded, eyes a-
twinkle. “We have a man like Mr.
Gill on board every voyage, sir.
And we have that table placed
there for just his type. No one
else is asked to sit so far forward.”
Mr. Forbes chuckled. “Think of
everything for the comfort of your
passengers, eh? WeU, if you didn’t
I’m afraid this voyage would have
proved almost intolerable—with
GUI talking the way he was.”

Of Your
MIND
Should Weigh
Dad's Dislike
By Lawrence Gould
41 Per Cent of Land
In U. S. in Herbage
Grass Top Resource,
Cattlemen Assert
Grass is one of the greatest re
sources of this nation. In the United
States there are approximately
779 million acres of land which
wiU grow nothing but hay, grass
and other herbage unfit for hu
man consumption.
This great acreage represents
41 per cent of the total land of the
nation. About 9 per cent of the
lands In the United States are
plowable but are used also to pro
duce pasture, hay or forage crops.
It can be concluded, therefore,
that about 50 per cent of the United
States would not be used if it were
not for meat animals.
L
Crop Rotation
Good Pasture Increases
Dairy Herd Production
With 2.5 million fewer cows on
farms now than in 1945, possibilities
for profit in dairying are greater
if labor-saving, high value pasture
is the center of the production pro
gram. Good pasture can increase
milk output and cut production
costs. That means a bigger profit
margin. Getting bigger pasture
yields is a matter of feeding the
soil plant nutrients so it can feed
legume grass mixtures.
Should you marry a girl
Answer: This might largely de-
1 pend on how the girl feels about
her father, since your greatest
danger in this situation is that her
remorse at having married some
one whom he disliked might in
time have the effect of “turning
her against you.” But most fath
ers do not relish the idea of giving
up their daughters and may take
out their resentment on any man
one of them wants to marry. If
this is the situation, you can only
go ahead on the assumption that
“Dad” will eventually realize his
daughter is a woman and entitled
to her own life.
This little fellow, obviously
■o well-started in life. Is sym
bolical of what good pasturage
can mean to cattle and just
how much cattle depend on
grass. In the United States
there are approximately 779
million acres of land which can
not grow anything but hay,
grass and other herbage.
Of the total feeds consumed by
beef cattle 78.7 per cent is grass,
hay and dry roughage. A minimum
of grain is needed to bring feeder
steers from 700 pounds to 1,000
pounds when the principal part of
the ration is made up of hay, en
silage or other roughage.
The process of producing beef
cattle normally involves the fol
lowing steps:
1. The purebred operator who
produces the sires and females
which are the foundation of beef
animal production. This branch of
the cattle industry is one that re
quires heavy investment and effi
ciency in management.
2. The commercial breeder who
produces the calves which are the
offspring of commercial herds of
female and purebred sires.
3. The pasture cattleman who
grows the animal from the wean
ing or yearling stage to two years
old, taking his profit from the
poundage gained on grass and hay.
4. The feeder who “finishes” the
animal from grass stage to slaugh
ter condition, disposing of a large
percentage of roughage.
Are normal children interested
in sex?
Answer: Of course, just as they
are interested in all that goes on
around them, especially if their
parents make a mystery or secret
of it. If you are worried over your
child’s concern with this subject,
read a new book, “The Normal
Sex Interests of Children,” by
Mrs. Frances B. Strain,
whose father dislikes you?
gives in simple language a true,
scientifically-accurate picture of
the natural development of a
child’s sexual interests and feel
ings, with sound advice as to how
to handle real or supposed mis
conduct. It’s a book I’ve wanted
to see for years.
Does anyone want to be
neurotic?
Answer, Yes. At bottom then
can be no other reason for devel
oping a neurosis. But because thi
person does not know what he ii
doing and cannot help doing it, ti
blame him is as unfair as it is use
less. A neurotic symptom—a pho
bia, for example—represents the
only way of getting satisfaction or
avoiding danger the person can
recognize with his emotions, what
ever his “common sense” may tell
him. And he’ll cling to it like the
proverbial drowning man until he
is helped to realize that the same
goal can be attained by less pain
ful methods.

Crop rotation with deep-rooted
legumes, plant food and good man
agement methods are the “gas, oil
and lubricants” that keep your
soil's crop producing machine go
ing on high.
Each of these has a job to do.
Each needs help from the others.
They all have to work like a team.
Valuable as a good rotation is in
balancing soil-building legume
crops against soil-robbing row
crops, it has to be backed up by
wise land management methods.
Cropping in even the best rotation
drains the soil’s supply of phos
phate and potash.
And even if your good manage
ment program puts back every
scrap of barnyard manure, plows
under the legumes and returns
straw, com stalks and crop after-
math to the soil, you still ship away
hundreds of pounds of plant food
in the grain, beef and milk yoq
sell every year.

W E ARE familiar with allergy
in which the tissues of some
individuals (15 to 20 per cent of the
population) react differently than
most of us to certain substances
that float in the air, are eaten in
food, or injected under the skin.
We see it in forms of hay fever,
asthma, head colds, stomach up
sets, hives and other skin erup
tions.
Allergists, specialists in allergy,
tell us that there are many sub
stances causing allergy that are
still unknown or not suspected. One
of the commonest causes is ordi
nary house dust, to which one or
more of the family are allergic but
blame their symptoms bn pollen or
similar substances.
Some years ago a magazine men
tioned a case of allergy in which
the father of the household, af
flicted with asthma, traveled ahead
of his family to locate a district
where he would be free of asthma.
Finding such a place, he would
send for the family. Shortly after
the family arrived, his asthma

again would afflict him. It was only
after several such movings that it
was learned that it was the fur of
the beloved family cat that was
causing the asthmatic attacks.
While allergists have found some
cases of allergy to be caused by
street dust, it is more often sub
stances in the air of the home that
are to blame. Some of these sub
stances are the children’s toys stuf
fed with wool or cotton lint, insect
sprays, heavy curtains, mattress
fillings or feathers or cotton, cer
tain cosmetic articles, the odors of
perfumes, and powders, hair dyes,
eyebrow and lip pencils.
The thought, then, is that where
the cause of the allergic symptoms
is unknown, and the usual test for
foods and pollen have been made,
the dust in the home—particularly
in the bedrooms (mattresses) and
in setting rooms (stuffed chairs and
sofas)—should be carefully tested
by an allergist The cause of al
lergic symptoms can be found in
the majority of cases if diligent
search is made.
