NEW PICTURES
(Opinions are based upon the reports
of P. S. Harrison, noted New York crit
ic, whose reviews serve as confidential
guides to theatre men all over the
United States.)
"Broadway Melody of 1936" (MOM)
with Jack Benny, Eleanor Powell and
Robert Taylor.
This Is good mass entertainment,
with lavish production and human in
terest story. The plot Is thin, how
ever, adhering closely to the back
stage comedy formula. Jack Benny
is handicapped by lines that are not
comical and will prove disappointing
to his radio fans. Eleanor Powell is
really a superb tap dancer. The love
interest is pleasant.
Suitable for all.
"Two Sinners" (Republic) with Otto
Kruger and Martha Sleeper.
Oood. The production and acting
are excellent; there is human interest
and the characters are sympathetic.
The first half is amusing, caused by a
spoiled child's antics, realistically play
ed by little Cora Sue Collins. The
love interest is charming.
"Special Agent" (Warner Bros.) with
Bette Davis and George Brent.
A powerful drama of the "G-Men"
type, but it is demoralizing in that
it deals mostly with the criminal ac
tivities of gangsters. There are sev
eral very thrilling situations. The
love interest is pleasant.
"Freckles" (RKO) with Tom Brown,
Virginia Weidler and Carol Stone.
Pretty good family fare. Virginia
Weidler, who was so delightful in
"Laddie," is the real attraction and
by her personal charm she keeps the
audience entertained. The leading
characters are sympathetic, the clos
ing scenes exciting and the love inter
ests pleasant.
Suitable for all.
"Hop-Along Cassidy" (Paramount)
with William Boyd, Jimmy Ellison
and Paula Stone.
An excellent Western, with good
photography and acting. Human in
terest is combined with comedy and
melodrama. The action is fast and
the horse-riding thrilling. Jimmy Ell
ison, a newcomer to the screen, makes
a very good impression, having per
sonality, a good voice and ability to
act. The love interest is pleasant.
Good for all.
"Powder Smoke Range" (RKO) with
Harry Carey and a large number of
other well-known Western actors.
This is the very best picture Harry
Carey has appeared in since "Trader
Horn." There are many of the old
Western actors in this picture ? Hoot
Gibson, Tom Tyler, Bob Steele and
others, but Mr. Carey outshines them
all. The action holds one tense.
Suitable for all.
"Wanderer of the Wasteland" (Para
mount) with Dean Jagger and Gail
Patrick.
A fairly good Western, with fast ac
tion, good horseback riding, some com
edy and human interest. Several of
the situations are exciting.
Suitable for children.
"Here Comes The Band" (MGM) with
Virginia Bruce, Ted Lewis and Ted
Healy.
Good entertainment, having com

SO WE COOK OUR FOOD
An ox or a horse can seize and masticate thoroughly a dry, hard ear of
corn. Most any of the farm animals may attack a cured bale of hay and
with powerful teeth and capable salivary glands reduce the tough, dried grass
to fit the stomach and be readily digested.
The hen picks up ripened grains, hard as wood ? swallows them whole
and doubtless enjoys the flavor. She has a battery of small pebbles in her in
terior, to grind her cereal with pleasing deliberation. It is all very interesting
when we have time to think of It.
But, man cannot do things as the cattle, horses and fowl do them. We
may eat a few things raw, with benefit. Our pioneers ate raw turnips
freely in the days before the young orchards had arrived at the fruit bearing
stage. We find raw fruits exceedingly palatable and beneficial and even neces
sary to our well-being. We may eat dried or wholly-air-cured meats such
as "chipped beef" if it be shaved thin and yet masticated well. It is tonic
for the digestive tract and a blood builder as well.
There are faddists today who think man should abolish cooking!
The common sense of it is that vegetables and meats of all kinds need
treatment before being eaten. Tough fibers must be made tender. Hard
growths must be softened, i Hidden food-principles must be set free that
we may appropriate them to our use without over-taxing the digestive machin
ery within us. The process of cooking becomes one of greatest importance
to the human family.
Let me mention a possible error, which is over-cooking. Too ardent fry
ing, boiling, roasting is also wrong. The artist in cookery knows when to
quit! Much of our diet is spoiled by "cooking it to death." Don't do it.
edy, an interesting plot, excellent mu
sic and fast action. It introduces
Harry Stockwell, a newcomer to the
screen, who, because of a fine voice
and pleasing personality, should be
come popular. The love interest is
pleasant.
Suitable tor all.
"Super Speed" (Columbia) with Nor
man Poster, Florence Rice and Mary
Carlisle.
A mediocre program melodrama. It
is somewhat demoralizing because of
the actions of the villain, Arthur Hohl.
The action is slow except for a motor
boat race in the closing scenes.
o
ANTI-RABIES BILL
The world advances slowly along lines
that make for human betterment. The
chariot wheels of human progress are
held back by the brakes of ignorance,
prejudice and low order of intelli
gence.
A physician endeavored to introduce
a law making it compulsory to have
the dogs in the State of Alabama in
oculated against rabies. The report
stated that the bill was "laughed to
death," on the floor of the Alabama
house of representatives last May. A
stinging rebuke was administered by
the state president of the medical as
sociation in the following language:
"I am myself a dog fancier. I own 10.
The Wednesday papers carried the
information to the public that a rea
sonable bill which had been carefully
prepared by interested members of the
legislature in its efforts to control the
alarming spread of rabies in this state
had been "laughed to death" on the
floor of the house.
"The facts are as follows: So great
are the demands now being made on
the health department laboratories
which undertake to manufacture the
vaccine to protect human beings a
gainst this dread disease that they have
been unable to supply the demand and
have been forced to purchase addition
al supplies of the vaccine in the open
market."
The doctor continued: "In certain
counties where rabies was practically
unknown heretofore, they have had
a series of mad dog epidemics occur
ring at regular intervals. These ep
idemics will continue until drastic
measures are taken to curb the dog
population.
I 'V* a Kill ttto p MniirrVio/4
mt uiii vviuwij woo Jiaugiicu iu
death' was in no sense a dog tax law,
or revenue producing measure. The
maximum charge provided in this bill
is one dollar which includes vaccine,
its administration and the enforcement
of the provisions of the act. It mere
ly seeks to exercise some control over
the present vagrant dog population of
the state which is a real and actual
menace to all our people."
Not only should the vagrant dog pop
ulation be humanely destroyed, but
homeless, wandering and predatory cats
should likewise be killed. Cats can
develop rabies as well as dogs. People
have been known to develop the di
sease after being bitten by cats. We all
know that cats are most destructive
to bird life, particularly the half starv
ed and homeless cats. The unwanted
offspring of female feline pets should
be destroyed at once. This can eas
ily be done by digging a hole in the
ground, filling it with water, dropping
in the new born kittens. This is
recommended by the humane society.
It is far more sensible and kinder than
to preserve them to swell the popula
tion of uncared for cats.
