52 ~OF WEDNESDAY, MAY 9, 1951 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE SEVEN Hollywood Highlights By BOB THOMAS Hollywood -- (AP)--The appar- ent sale by Warner Brothers of their movie interests marks the end of the pioneer era of the movie industry. This is the first time that any of the great builders and developers of the movie business have retired voluntarily from the Hollywood scene, The great part of the film dyn- asty has remained in the hands of the men who got in early. These men include Louis B. Mayer, a na- tive of Saint' John, N.B., Nicholas and Joseph Schenck, Adolph Zu- kor, Sam Goldwyn, Spyrous Skouras, Jack and Harry Cohn. Now Warner Brothers have an- pounced their intention to leave that pioneering group after a saga that led them from a bicycle shop to a multi-million dollar enterprise, Benjamin Warner left strife- torn Poland in 1888 and brought his family to the United States. They landed at Baltimore and at first had difficulty making ends meet, Harry, the oldest of the boys, hel out by selling papers. The a pranched out with a bicycle shop. They also went in- to other enterprises--from selling vinegar and soap to working on the railroad. They began tq shape up as a team. Harry the captain, Sam the mechanic, and Albert and Jack the salesmen. Sam, the mechanical mind, be- came interested in the new Edison kinetoscope. He got a job at $8 a week as assistant projectionist. Soon the whole family joined him in the enterprise. They opened a theatre in New Castle, Pa, with a capacity of 99 persons. By 1912 the company had grown until it started making its own pictures. The first was a three- reeler called "Peril of the Plains." In 1916 they opened a small studio in Honnywood. During the 1920s, S#m was tink- ering with the idea of sound movies. He sold his brothers on the idea and then went to work with West- ern Electric on a method. Finally, on Oct. 6, 1927, Al Jol- son appeared on the screen of the Warner Theatre in New York with the words, "You ain't heard noth- in' .yet, folks; listen to this." It was the first time an actor had spoken dialogue on the screen and it revolutionized the industry. Sam died before he could see the impact of his work on the business. The Warner enterprise continued to proSper in the following years. GLAMORIZING:- By HELEN 1 GOOD taste is the directing in- fluence that builds a pleasing ap- pearance. It tells a woman what kind of clothes she should wear, when and where she should wear them. It has a lot to do when she selects a perfume. A fastidous nose will take to sweet and subtle scents Land no other kind will do. The brunette who likes to appear dramatic may prefer a perfume that is a bit heady, like rose, tuberose, or oriental blends. They are stimu- lating and arresting and often suit her brisk personality. They have lasting qualities. But her choice must be carefully made. Others BEAUTY FOR YOU: Eyes, Sparkling and Eloquent By HELEN Whether a girl be pretty or plain, her eyes are her most interesting feature, the one that is longest re- membered, the one that gets in the slickest work when an attack is made on masculine heart strings. The poets have raved about them. "Those lovely lamps, the windows of the soul," Du Bartas called them. 'Soul-deep eyes of darkest night," wrote Joaquin Miller. "Love look- eth from the eye, and kindled love by looking," raved Tupper. There is another nice thing about them, They do not change with the years. You can keep yours young and lovely and romance- winning as long as you live. The hair goes white and the skin wrinkles, but the eyes remain as is, Animation is the best eye beauti- fiers. If there's fun ih your heart and your brain clicks on all cylin- ders, your eyes will tell the world! Little is required as to their care MiP) --they have their own oiling and { washing systems -- but they are often abused. We bring a lot of afflications upon ourselves, which seems pretty silly. Be kind to your eyes and they'll be kind to you. If Tops of the Season Gay! Smart!

They are on the job every waking moment; that is why you should not stay up half the night to finish that mystery story. Also, you should be particu- larly mindful about the lighting effects in your home. Have a strong light behind each easy chair, on your desk, and at the sides of mirrors, Lights must be properly shaded, so your book or work will be well illuminated, with no glare in your eyes. You should not réad on a moving train because that calls for constant re-adjustment of vision, which is a strain. Night and morning bathe your eyes--{first with warm water, then with cold, This practice will bring a quick reaction of the blood streams. It will help to keep the surrounding flesh in smooth, nor- mal condition, will have a favor- able effect upon the eyelashes. Those little fuzzers get food, drink and lodgings from the circulation, and cold water is a help. Your druggist will supply you with an eye lotion. Use it when the eyes are tired, or if the lids seem irritated. If there is ever any sign of inflamation or infec- tign, hie yourself to a specialist. Don't rub your eyes when wearing gloves. That's one way of pickin up bacteria. . Address. Print plainly NAME, AD- DRESS, PATTERN NUMBER. Needleworkers! Have you seen our 1951 Alice Brooks Needlework | catalog?

Your entire A Physician Advises You By HERMAN M. BUNDESEN, M.D. INTERNAL BIRTHMARK IT is not commonly known that the same overgrowth of blood ves- sels which accounts for the ordin- ary "birthmark" when it appears on the skin can also occur in other parts of the body. Medically, such growths are considered. as tumors and are known as hemangiomas. By far the most common type of tumor occurring in newborn bables, they are either apparent at birth or show up soon thereafter. They may vary in size from a tiny spot to those which cover al- most half of the body. As I sald earlier, they are sometimes found internally, but the great majority, however, occur on the skin and in tissues near the skin, the favorite location being on the skin of the head and neck. Less commonly they are found around the eye, in the brain, on the tongue, in the intestinal tract, or in the liver. There is an indication that girls have the condition twice as often as ys, Just what treatment should be used depends not only on the size of the tumor but also on its loca- tion. Obviously, if the hemangloma is located in the brain, or in any of the intestinal organs, operative treatment will be necessary. One type of these tumors is known as a portwine stain. These are large purplish growths which are usually flat. It has been sug- gested that in some cases these markings may be made less notice~ able by rubbing with sandpaper. Of course, this must be carried out in a hospital. The camouflaging of these marks is often possible with various cosmetics, and sometimes they can be permanently camou- flaged by tattooing. Small heman- gliomas on the surface of the skin may be frozen with dry ice. Larger ones are sometimes treated by in- jecting sclerosing solutions into them, or by tying off blood vessels. Many of them, however, require surgical removal, the best and quickest method where the tumor is well sealed. off from surrounding tissue, The treatment of any heman- gioma with X-ray should be car- ried out with the greatest of cau- wardrobe will become. impregnated with it in course of time. If you would economize, do not overlook sachets. They are wonder= ! ful buys. The next time you do your beauty shopping, hang around the cosmetic counter, give these frag- rant items a look-see. They come in attractive forms. You don't have to ply a needle, make little satin bags as your grannie did in her young days. Dear Mrs. Beecknian: At a Mother-and-Daughter ban- quet to be given soon, my mother is to give the speech to the moth- ers present, and I have been asked to greet the daughters. Will you please give us some suggestions for these greetings? The banquet is to ke given the day before Moth- er's Day, and the important signi- ficance of this day, to mothers and daughters, is the subject of the banquet. Thank you for any help. . --Frances G. Your mother might say some- thing like this: "To me has been given the honor of welcoming all you mothers who have come here with me to meet with our beloved daughters. It is particularly fit- ting that we meet here tonight, just before Mother's Day, when all of us are remembering and re- newing in our hearts the fine and high ideals of this day dedicated to all mothers, to Motherhood. And in the hearts of all of us, I know, has heen and is and ever will be fhe hope that we have been 'good mothers," that we: have given to these dear daughters of ours the right influences, loving character- building, that we can pass on to them the torch of courage and in- tegrity, that we have inspired them as we prayed most earnestly to in- spire them, and that wherever they go they will know that our abiding love goes with them. Today these young, people are given enormous responsibilities, and are to be given enormous re- sponsibilities. They must blaze new trails of thought, hopes and ideals. They must contribute their whole- hearted share to the making of the pattern , for this so-problematic new world. May all Good and Goodness be with them always." And you might say to the daugh- ters .something like this: "And tg me 'has been given the honor of welcoming all you daughters who have come here with me to meet with our beloved mothers. We want to pay honor to Mother's Day « « « most humbly to all mothers, and most lovingly to you, our moth- ers, here with us tonight, To you and our fathers we owe all that we are, and your love of us and your ideals for us make us always strive to be what you would like to have us be. From your beloved hands we accept the torch of cour- age and integrity, with. the prom- ise to keep it brightly burning. And may its light so shine that it will do proper honor to you. ' "You mothers have watched us tenderly, during these reaching- forth years of our lives, have gently guarded and guided us. And for your love and loving understand- ing and encouragement, we, in the words of the Bible, 'arise and call you blessed.' " Mother's Day . . . From Your Heart to Hers , . .

On the other hand, a hemangioma of the tongue or liver may best be treated by X-ray or radium. In each instance, the growth must be careful studied to deter- mine its type and the selection of treatment, on the basis of the method which will most quickly and safely eliminate it. QUESTIONS AMD ANSWERS N.N.: Is a fibroid tumor of the uterus cancerous? Answer: Fibroid tumors are not cancerous. A rolled breast of lamb is an economical cut of meat. Allow 30 minutes to the pound cooking time when you roast it in a 350 degree oven. Potatoes Are Easy On Bulges, Budgets Housewives who have been watch- ing both their bulges and their bud- gets can turn to the lowly potato The Canadian Horticultural Coun- cil points out that the potato, as well as being a good buy, is low on those pound-adding calories. "Contrary to common belief," W. R. Shaw, Chaiman of the Coun- cil Potato Committee, says, "the average serving of potatoes, baked, creamed, French-fried, mashed, scalloped, or potato chips, contains only approximately 100 calories. This calorie content for potatoes is about one-fourth to one-half of that contained in the average des- sert." An analysis fo food prices, based on Dominion Bureau of Statistics figures, shows that potatoes lead foods. The April index shows that all other foods by a wide margin as the best buy on today's market. For example, an hour of factory labor in February, 1951, the last month for which figures are avail- able, bought 45.3 pounds of potatoes. The next closest figure was for bread where 11.8 pounds could be bought for one hour's factory labor. Besides being economic and low in calories, potatoes contain vitamins A, B (thiamine), C (ascorbic acid), and G, as well as generous amounts of riboflavin, calcium, protein, phos- phorus, niacin and iron. In the April cost-of-living index just released, potatoes are shown at 119.4 points, a slight drop from the March figure, and a drop of 185 points from the year before. The Horticultural Council points out that vegetables and fruits as a whole have risen less than other although the overall price of foods rose 33.9 pcints in the preceding year, vegetables rose only 3.6 points and fruits only 9.5 points.
