THOUGH Rise (pronounced Stevens has sung (ive seasons with the Metro-politan Opera company, radio tan claim her in a way; she made her first public appeara-nce as a singer on the "Sunday Morning Children's Hour," d by Milton Cross. In 1935 she was a semifinalist in the Metropoli-tan Opera Auditions ol the Air, was offered a contract and refused; felt that she wasn't ready for it.

When Johnny Longden, the jockey who rode Count Fleet to victory in the Kentucky Derby, visited the set of United Artists' "The Hairy Ape," he brought along a good luck token. To William Bendix, the male star, and Allred Santell, director, he gave the shoes the great horse wore in the race, as a lucky piece on the opening stretch of their shooting. J. Carroll Naish saved a marine's life the other day on the screen. Naish is to "Gung Ho!", Universal's film based on the book written by Capt. W. S. LeFrancois, TJSMC. The script writers had the captain die la their version of the story, instead of being wounded and decorated, as happened in real life. But Naish played the captain so brilliantly that the script was revised. ' Gary Cooper, who rose to film fame as a strong, silent man, sings on the screen for the first time in "The Story of Dr. Wassell." The song, "Praise the Lord and Pass the Ammunition," was spotted by C. B. DeMille for the picture on publication. The new Sinatra picture has no title so far, but it's under way; George Murphy, Adolphe Menjou and Gloria De Haven have been signed for it by RKO; Wally Brown and Alan Carney, comedy team, will appear as stooges to Murphy. Eleanor Powell's dancing partner for the grand finale of "Sensations of 1944" recently arrived in Holly-- i wood; she's "Starless Night," is five years old, and is rated by her owner, Capt. William Heyer, as the finest dancing horse he's ever trained. Virginia O'Brien, noted for her "deadpan" portrayals, will change her screen personality in her new picture, "Dear Barbara," which MGM is producing with Susan Peters in the lead. In the picture Frank Morgan will play a character similar to that of his telegrapher in "The Human Comedy," which won him praise from the critics. Jimmy Durante and Margaret O'Brien also have important roles. Dennis Day, singing star of Jack Benny's radio show, has been signed by EKO to a contract calling for his appearance in two films yearly, While still unknown, Day followed fanny Baker as the singer on the Benny program, and almost over- - night became a top attraction. Act-- fag roles on the air show helped him 6long, and first thing he knew he was in pictures. The latest "March of Time," ex- - ' elusive film material which reached America on the last plane out of Sweden before air travel there was suspended, shows how the Swedish People, living in precarious peace, are meeting the pressure of Nazi treats with growing defiance.

Whltman-W- NU Feature.. REFRACTORY CEMENT Question: The heat of the past winter's fires has burned out the mortar between the bricks. I was 'told that I should use fire clay and that the fire back should have been laid up with fire clay instead of lime and plaster. I am told that lime and cement mortar are used in fire-places. None of the lumber yards here know anything about fire clay. What can I use to repair the back wall of the fireplace? Answer: Mason material dealers and plumbing and heating supply houses handle refractory cement and fire clay. Refractory cement is generally used and preferred as a mortar between fire brick. If you cannot get the material, try the fol-lowing: Rake out the old cement to a depth of a half inch or more; then brush out the loose particles. Soak the spaces with plenty of clear water and pack the joints with a fairly stiff mixture of one part port-lan- d cement, one part hydrated lime and five parts of clean, coarse sand. Keep the new mortar damp for sev-eral days and do not use the fire-place for at least one week. CHIPPED SINK Question: How can I improve the appearance of my kitchen sink? Parts of the porcelain have been rubbed off, showing the black iron surface. Answer: If the damaged places are not below the water line, get a white enamel made especially for patching chipped porcelain surfaces. After cleaning the spots brighten the exposed metal by rubbing with steel wool, then wipe with turpentine and apply a coat of special undercoat and follow with porcelain enamel. Blackened Sills Question: I have had plants on my varnished window sills, and the water from these plants has gone on the sills and turned them black. Is there anything I can do to get them clean again? The black seems to be in the wood. Answer: Take off the finish down to the wood with paint remover. The stains can be bleached out with a saturated solution of oxalic acid and denatured alcohol. Apply this liberally and allow to remain for several hours. Rinse well with clear water and allow the wood to dry thoroughly. Finish with a top quality spar varnish. If the wood-work has had a stain, try to match the color with the other woodwork before applying the varnish. Javelle Water Question: Will you please tell me how Javelle water is mixed? Answer: Dissolve one-ha- lf pound of washing soda in a quart of cold water, adding pound of chloride of lime with the lumps crushed. This mixture is allowed to stand until the sediment has settled; then the clear liquid is drawn oft, strained through a thickness of cloth and bottled. In use, one part of the solution should be diluted with three parts or more of water. If used for laundering, remember to rinse out very thoroughly; for, otherwise, the fabrics will be weakened if not ruined. Cleaning Aluminum Question: How can I remove a black line from the inside of one of my aluminum saucepans? This line was caused by a liquid standing too long. Answer: Boil a mix-ture of vinegar and water in the pan for 20 minutes or so; further rubbing with a special aluminum cleanser (to be had from your gro-cer) or fine steel wool and soap may be needed. . . Galvanized Pipe Question: I would like to take down my galvanized furnace pipe. What can I do to prevent water Would the at-tic forming on the pipe? be a good place to store it? Answer: After giving the pipe a good cleaning to free it from dust coat both sides with light oil and store in the attic. If there are any rust spots, rub them off with steel wool or fine sandpaper before apply-ing the oil. . Rusted Caster Holders Question: I am using a metal bed that had been stored and the casters are attached on sections that fit m of the bed. The holders are quite rusty. What should I do to make them usable now? Answer: Take out the caster hold-ers and soak them in kerosene. After or so, the rust can be Amoved by rubbing with steel woo When the metal is or sandpaper. it a coat of light oil or Tnish8 This will retard further rusting.

Gems of Thought TT IS vastly more comfortable to be oppressed than to have in one's heart the burning sense of shame that he is an oppres-sor. W. A. White. Pride (of all others the most dang'rous fault) proceeds from want of sense, or want of thought. Wentworth Dillon.

EDWIN MARKHAM A more perfect race, means a more soulful race, a race hav-ing greater capacity for love. Ellen Kay. BLSOUSEHOLD If it is difficult to make wall-paper stick to chimney, ceilings or walls, apply a coat of aluminum paint before papering. Then the wallpaper will not crack or come loose. A sharp knife, rinsed in hot water, will do a good job of cutting cake and keeping neat cake and frosting edges. ou can add a cute note to your skirt by cutting out musical notes from odd pieces of felt and sewing them around the hem. Or one on your sweater will make a nice conversation piece too. Chicken fat saved from stewed chicken may be substituted for shortening in pie crusts, biscuits, spiced or ginger cookies or cake. Continual opening of the oven door changes the temperature and is a common cause of baking fail-ures. Why not a spice bag to flavor that soup or stew? To make one, mix three sprigs parsley, six whole cloves, one bay leaf and a little thyme and tie them loosely in a small square of white cheesecloth. Drop the bag into the cooking mix-ture. Old Testament in Hebrew The Old Testament is now being published in Hebrew in Palestine, the first time in history that a com-plete edition of this book has been produced in its original language in its native country. UncUPk'd Say5: A straw vote gives about the same cheer as viewing the new moon over one's right shoulder does. The man who dies a millionaire leaves much to be desired. "Ignorance," said Rastus, "ain't knowin' nothin' it's knowin' too much that ain't so." A soft answer may turn away wrath, but that's hard to do when you have a club in your hand. Some men are even too indolent to pull wires to advance. Predict Car-Plan- e Airplane designers prophesy a combination family car and plane for the future. Most commonly visualized is a three or car-plan- e with re-movable wings which can be "checked" at the airport. Predicted performance: 135 to 160 miles an hour cruising speed in the air, 50 to 60 miles an hour on the highway. Mass production would bring cost of unit within reach of the family pocketbook. Perfume to Stench Most stench bombs are filled with a fluid made from thd dried roots of the valerian plant because the odor is believed to be the most offensive in existence. Yet people in the 16th century considered the scent of this root so fragrant that they used it to perfume their clothes. Opposites "What is the opposite of sor-row?" asted the teacher. "Joy," answered the lad. "And the opposite of misery?" "Happiness," said the pupil. "How about woe?" "Giddap." Some Guess Small Betty We've got a new baby at our house. Guess what kind?

Tower of Justice Although a leaning pagoda of Indo-Chin- a leans more than its fa-mous counterpart at Pisa, Italy, it was built to lean as a "barometer of justice." As the administration of justice becomes less equitable, the tower, in native fancy, leans lower and lower. The remarkable tower is 80 feet high and was built 200 years ago. r cictu V?!
