Check your home and sur
roundings regularly for safety. If
you are acquiring a house or
furnishing a heme, keep safety
uppermost in your mind. Would
it be wise to have an all-on-one-

doers on the medicine chest and
non-skid material for the bath
room floor? And windows that
can be washed on both sides from
the inside cf the house?

ances, short pictures for Para
mount, radio engagements, a sea
son at New York’s famous Rain

Town Hall as “America’s First

years have marked his steady de

coast.

brilliant interpreter of Chopin and '
Liszt, Mr. Scott is at the same
time an authority on modern pop
ular styles.

are the parents of two children, a
girl and a boy.
