The hoary marmot of the north
ern Rockies spends the longest time
in hibernation. He is the first to go
into hibernation in the fall and the
last to come out in the spring in a
region where the winters are long

Earl, »ce Enterprise
An early American enterprise was
the shipping of ice from New Eng
land to the tropics. The ice was
packed in white pine sawdust and
Americans promoted its sale by
showing the natives how to make
; ice cream and iced drinks.
WHERRY FOR U. S.
SENATOR COMMITTEE j
Senator Kenneth S. Wherry,
Republican of Nebraska, told
the Omaha Guide today that
he blocked a Senate move to
act against negro leaders ad
vocating “civil disobedence" j
because he felt it would un- i
fairly agtate against all mem
bers of the colored race.
The Senate action was at
tempted on motion by Senat- j
or Eastland, Democrat of
Mississppi, against Grant Rev-]
nolds, Member of the New
York State Commission of
Correction. Mr. Reynolds and
A. Philip Randolph, president
of the Brotherhood of Sleeping
Car Porters, testified that un
less segregation and discrim
ination were ended they would
advocate that negroes refuse
to obey military service ord
ers.
Senator Eastland urged the
Senate to bring the case of Mr.
Reynolds directly to the at
tention of Governor Dewey of
New York, under whom he
works. •
Nebraska Senator \\ heerv
imposed thhe objection whch
prevented floor consideration.
Later Senator Wherry ex
plained that he feels both Mr.
Reynolds and Mr. Randolph
were “terribly wrong” in advo
vocating such action, and that
hhe is cont'dent that most ne
groes would not follow such a
course in time of national em
ergency.
“For this reason it seemed
to me fair to the vest major
ity of the negro population of
our country to allow further
publicity in the United States
Senate which would serve on
ly to arouse racial animosity
and prejudices,” Senator
Wherry said.
Need Running Water
Running water still is lacking in
75 per cent of the farm homes of the
nation. Only 5 per cent of city homes
lack running water. A farm family
of five with a fair amount of live
stock uses about 30fi tons of water in
a year if they have to pump and
carry it by hand. If the farm had
running water and electric pumps
the same family would use probably
twice as much water and have none
i of the effort of transporting tons of
1 water by hand

Plants That Swim
Despite the fact they are 'plants,
and not animals, many species of
water algae are' able to move about
by swimming. Brown algae range in
size from forms that can be seen
only under the microscope to others
200 feet long. Algae differ from
fungi in that they can extract and
build up their food from inorganic
substances. Seaweeds are the most
familiar representatives of the al
gae family.

THE CLUWiNlNG FIhai^E brings s.n. *»s to the Nicholas Brothers and Gene Keliy starring
in MGM’j color production of “The Pirate”. (See story below)
MGM MAKES BIG
STEP FORWARD
Starring Nicholas Brothers
With Gene Kelly
New York. (CNS) — The
press preview this week of
“The Pirate”, a former Alfred
Lunt-Lynno Fontanne suc
cessful vehicle, surpassed all j
expectations in proving that
Metro Goldwvn Mayor still
leads in the film industry for
liberal-making pictures, for
i their dramatic idea of coup
j ling the world-famous Nichol
1 as Brothers with actor Gene
j Kelly not only produced good
j entertainment but good taste.
I The story, filmed in glow
ing color, takes the setting of
a mytical Carribean Island
where Manuela (Judy Gar- |
land) is being married off to
wealthy Don Pedro Vargas,
the Mayor of their village, for
financial rdasons. The cargo
ship brings the egotistical, ad
venturous Scarfin (Gene Kel
ly) ' to the Island with his
troupe of clowns, actors, ar.d
jugglers, among them the
dancing Nicholas boys. After
much protesting, Manuela suc
cumbs to Serafin’s exaggerat
ed charms and therein the
story plunges into wild action
and suspense.
The musical direction, un
der Lennie Hayton and the
production by Arthur Freed,
both who have done much for
the success of Lena Horno,
rates the true MGM 4-star
'banner. Best numbers were
“Nina”, song and dance novel
ty by Gene Kelly and “Mac
lavart” by Judy Garland, all
Colo Portor music.
The most whimsical scene,
however, was saved till the
last twenty miles of the film
when Kelly, Harold & Fayard
Nicholas, dressed identically
in satsin clown costumes and
pom pom hats, began falling
, over the stage, leap ng high in
i the air, sliding sideways — all
I in perfect precision. You
would've thougnt tit “re were
either three Nicholas Broth
ers—or three Gene Ktliys.
FREEDOM TRAIN
PAGEANT
The Freedom Train Papeanr
was the most original and un
ique plays I’ve seen in a long
time. The costumes and actors
were so original and the pag
eant was so well done, that it
left the audience very well
pleased. Many would like a re
peat performance. And to
tho'e who did not see it, please
don't fail to see it if its pre
sented again. They played to a
full house. Robert Meyers was
very good as Columbus, Mr.
and Mrs. Cleo Mortonser were
good in as George and Martha
Washington. Mr. and Mrs.
Isaiah Jones were original as,
in the Days of ’49. Mr. Jones
was wearing a coat that was
75 years old. The many other
playyrs were very good. The
music for the pageant was
supplied by Diave Alexander's
orchestra.
Used cooking fat is the only Wring i
that often goes into the garbage
pail that can be sold for cash.
Orange skins, potato peelings and
eggshells are not redeemable, but
meat dealers do pay for every
pound of used cooking fat. Con
serve and turn in every pound to
ease the shortage of fats and oils.

HOUSEKEEPING/
1 r »«ur STUAIT
| It was such fun to decorate r.ia<
own home. We planned the color
schemes, selected the furniture,
draperies, rugs, and wall covering*
•nd then assembled and arranged
them in a pleasing pattern. But
just like all newlyweds nowadays
we paid so much
for our furnish
ings that we had
very little left in
our budget for
the future. I
could see that
what we had
would have to ^
last a long time «
‘and it was up to
me to see that
they did. But I
didn’t quite relish the idea of mak
ing myself a drudge to our home
either.
I called Jane and asked how she
kept her home looking so clean and
fresh all the time and still had;
plenty of time for other things. I
"Why, I use Cream Wax,” replied
Jane. "It’s simply wonderful for(
'furniture and woodwork. It’s a
creamy white liquid that cleans
and polishes in one application. And
best of all, it contains no oil tOi
catch dust. The wax leaves a hard,
dry finish that makes cleaning so
simple. I merely whisk a cloth over
my furniture and the dust disap
pears like magic.
“I use it for almost everything in
our house—for my cupboards, ve-l
netian blinds, window sills, doors,;
parchment lamp shades, picturej
frames, metal ash trays, leather
goods, refrigerator, and many other
things. You should see how easy it
is to remove smudges and finger-'
prints from my woodwork with
Cream Wax!
i “Not only does it clean and polish
my woodwork and furniture, but it
protects the finish as well, particu
larly window sills that are likely to'
become damp and wet when the
windows have been left open during'
a shower.”
, “Cream Wax, I understand, is
a new development by Johnson’s
. chemists. It contains three clean
I ing agents and leaves a hard, dry
film of wax to protect the surface
.?rom dust and grit. I’m certainly
glad I found it. It cuts my house-]
I cleaning time in half.”
