This quartette*of bathing beauties from Billy Rose’s Aquacade are fas
cinated by the mystery of the Copper Atom, one of the features of the
Copper & Brass Industry Exhibit, during their tour of the Industry and
Metals Building. An Atom is one of the smallest possible divisions of
any material. In fact it is so small that you cannot see it with your eyes.
Vou cannot see It through a microscope. This model is enlarged more
than twenty billion times. It Is explained through a hidden voice and
attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors to the Fair from throughout
the United States as well as many from foreian lands. •
points out that oats, wheat, rye,
and barley usually make better
yields in the Coastal Plains than
on comparable soils in the Pied
mont and Mountain sections.
The mattress- making pamph
let is expected to be of value in
the project for low income fami
lies which the Extension Service
is directing in every county in
the State, in cooperation with
other agricultural and welfare
agencies.

When Acid Indigestion, Gas on
Sumach or Heartburn make you
feel uncomfortable or embarrass
you, try Alka-Seltzer, which con
tains alkalizing buffers and so
helps counteract die associated
Excess Stomach Acidity.
But the relief of these minor
stomach upsets is only a small
part of what you can expect
Alka-Seltzer to do for you. You
will find it effective for P%in Re
lief in Headache, Neuralgia, Colds
and Muscular Aches and Pams.
It contains an analgesic, (sodium
acetyl salicylate), made more
prompt and effective in its pain
relieving action by alkaline buffer
salts.
When hard work or strenuous
exercise make you feel tired and
dragged out, enjoy the refresh
ing effect of a glass of sparkling,
tangy Alka-Seltzer.

Pine Needle Mulch
Aids Reforestation
Mulching with pine needles, or
pine straw, to preserve moisture
and hold the soil is familiar in
many parts of North Carolina,
but this practice will serve ano
ther purpose, says W. D. Lee,
Extension soil conservationist of
N. C. State College.
A pine needle mulch will sti
mulate reforestation of eroded
and denuded areas, he stated.
This has been proven conclusive
ly in tests, and scores of farmers
have reported a growth of pine
trees in areas where they have
covered ditch banks or idle fields
with pine straw.
Lee said that the Southern
Piedmont Soil Conservation Ex-
I periment Station at Athens, Ga„
conducted these tests to demon
strate this method of reforesting
old fields or clay gall areas.
“Seeking an economical way 1
of seeding eroded areas, the
station mulched four clay-galled
plots with 800 pounds of pine
needle litter from adjacent
woods. In five months, a healthy
mixed vegetation developed, in
cluding more than 1,600 short-

“The study will observe for
several years the survival and
height growth of the seedlings
resulting from this simple and in
expensive scattering of pine
needle litter over the bore area
to a depth of about one inch.
“If only one-fourth of the ex
isting seedlings live for 5 years,
the area will be well planted,
Lee declared.
In conclusion, he suggested
that North Carolina farmers try
this method of controlling eroJ

Director Simon
An Authority On
“Stage Freight
S. Sylvan Simon, who directed
“Sporting Blood”, story of south
ern horse racing showing at the
Dolly Madison theatre starting to
morrow, confessed to his cast dur
ing the production of the picture
that when he had his one oppor
tunity to appear before the cam
era he suffered such stage freight
that he couldn’t go through with
it.
It was during the first day of
production on “Sporting Blood”
when both Robert Young and
Maureen O’Sullivan were saying
that the first scene of a new pic
ture always scared them silly but
that once it was over they felt
perfectly all right.
“I have to be sympathetic with
all nervous actors because of what
happened to me,” admitted Si
mon. “I once wrote a short sub
ject showing how films are made.
I was to direct it and also play
the role of the test director in
the picture. When the time came
for me to step in front of the cam -
era I simply couldn’t do it. I got
cold feet and had to hire an actor
to take my place.”

It’s Etiquette
For Andy Hardy
A gift made forty years ago to
a member of the company of
“Andy Hardy Meets Debutante”,
coming Monday to the Palace
theatre, found its way to the
screen in this latest episode of
Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer’s series a
bout the Hardy Family.
The gift was a time-yellowed
book on the social graces, publish
ed in 1881 and entitled, “Our De
portment, Manners, Conduct and
Dress of the Most Refined Soc
iety,” and in the picture it was
used by Mickey Rooney to deter
mine how, as Andy Hardy, he
might crash the acquaintance of
a modern glamour girl.
But forty years ago it had been
presented for a more realistic pur
pose to John Miller, property man
on the Hardy Family series, by his
parents who hoped thereby to
improve him socially.
