At 11.30, Mom toek over, told the girls and boys that they had to get up early in the morning to go to school and should be in bed at that hour. Afterward, she blamed me, but I say it's not my fault they didn't go home on time. What do you say?"

By contrast, the state of the Stage, literature, radio--or even the union itself--scarcely whips up a flutter of excitement. To me, that's all to the good. Where the motion picture is con- cerned, I go along with the veteran politico who didn't care what people said about him, as long as he wasn't ignored. * Critics of the motion picture can be roughly partitioned into "A" and "B" varieties. <The partition is the box office. The "A" critic planks down his | change at the window. He pays | for the privilege of panning the movies if he feels so inclined, Like the baseball fan, he has purchased the right to let off steam. Letter Writer He writes me letters. Lots of them. I may not always agree with his verdict on a particular picture, but I heed what he says. Care- fully. He counts. He's more than the bread and butter of the in- dustry. He's the good gadfly who keeps us whetted with ambition to | make more pictures he likes and fewer he doesn't. - The "B" critic is usually an in- tellectual snob who thinks it fa- shionable to look down his nose with an air of highbrow superiority at anything of mass appeal. He knows all about what's wrong with | the movies, but he rarely sees one. | Propaganda | He "wants pictures overloaded with "significant messages" and propaganda; pictures in the imagine of his own circumscribed thinking. It distresses him to realize that | people go to the movies to be] | entertained and not to have their | eyebrows lifted. | I've never been able to make up| my mind whether this highbrow | doesn't like the movies--or doesn't | like people. | It is uncanny how people dis-| word along as if by grapevine. No amount of professional criticism, good or bad, can shake their point No amount of panning by critics can stop the | to the box office if the people like a picture. | Do Re-D Begin the new season with new slip covers!

Bundesen, M.D. : SUN-BATHING SUMMERTIME, as well as early sutumn, is sun-bathing time, Dur- ing the warm weather we all enjoy the sunshine and get an extra divi- dend in the way of health benefits. Sunshine, falling on the bare skin, forms Vitamin D in the body and, al activities. we take our sunshine in moderation. Unfortunately, however, many. pco- ple are heedless and foolhardy when it comes to sun-bathing. Over-ex- posure results not only in painful skin burns but may also be hurtful to the eyes. Safely Exposed Just how long the skin may be safely exposed to the sun varies with different persons, depending on the type of skin, the time of day, and other factors. Moreover, the burn may not be felt until it is too late. Thus, it is better to be safe and expose the skin for 'only five to ten minutes the first day, gradually developed a protective tan. some danger in over-exposure of the eyes to the sunlight. Reading on the beach or when sitting in the radiant sunlight is a harmful prac- tice. Of course it is never advisable to look directly at the sun even though the eyes are protected with so-called sun-glasses. Any person who wears glasses normally should consult with his physician concerning the use of dark-colored glasses when outdoors. He will advise as to whether or not such dark-colored glasses are need- ed. Sun Glasses We often see persons wearing sunglasses indoors. This is an un- necessary practice and may result in ' some eye-strain. Babies, especially, get a great deal | of value from sun-baths, but the infant must be especially guarded when: the sun-baths are given. The same procedure should be followed ds for an adult, that is starting with three to five minutes of ex- ! posure on the first day and increas- | ing it three to five minutes sun- bath daily. The infant, too, must | have the eyes protected against the sun's glare. This often can he ac- complished by having the baby lie with the back of his head toward * derly cared for.

Two Special Problems Dear Mrs, Beeckman: 1. This is our first problem. The prospective bridegroom has asked his brother to be test man. But the bride-to-be told brother he couldn't be best man as she has asked one of her friends, whom the bridegroom hardly knows, to be pest man. Is this at all polite or proper? 2. And this is our second probh- lem, A friend is giving a shower | for' the bride-to-be. We live in the | no baby | { miss a good time for such a supere | country where there are | sitters.

(On the card | the bridegroom's! | the women insists that such a plan is all 'wrong, that the men should« n't even be in the house when a bridal shower is being given, and that she will not allow her hus- band to go. Is she right about this? If the friend giving the shower is not allowed to carry out her plan | as I have stated it, many of us will not be able to attend. - E. R. 1. No . definitely not polite and definitely not proper. The time- honored tradition is that the bridegroom asks his brother to be best man . . , the bride-to-be should know this, should respect it, should permit the bridegroom to invite his own attendants, just as she should invite hers, This bridegroom should explain this traditional right to his fiancee and should be masterly enough to insist on having his brother as his best man.
