Acclaimed by many universities,
colleges, national clubs and organ
izations. as well as officials of
most all churches, the new educa
tional hygiene attraction, “Mom
and Dad” with an all-star Holly
wood east, comes to Leavitt's
Theatre for a three day engage
ment, starting Sept. Sth.
This powerful modern-day drama
is clean, moral and educational.
Its story is so human it overflows
with good fun-—yet* it is so hu
manely true the film has its mo
ments when the tears flow freely.
It is a touching and heart-tugging
story of youth, and the social prob
lems of today. Certainly, with its
thousands of endorsements, its
praise from millions who have wit
nessed it, “Mom and Dad” could
not rightfully be misconstrued by
anyone as anything salacious or
immoral, because it is shown only
to segregated audiences.
The producers explain this phase
of the policy of presentation with
the frank statement the picture
contains two modern and powerful
medical and health sequences deal
ing with delicate subject
This fact, along with the
of Elliot Forbes, famous
commentator who appears
stage in person, necessitates segre
gated audiences. Likewise the pic
ture is presented to only high
school-age and older patrons.
Bill Beaudine, one of Holly
wood’s best directors, handled the
megaphone job and according to
critics certainly obtained wonder
ful performances from each and
every member of the big cast.
Marcel LePieard,
cameraman was behind the lenses
and is credited with giving the
picture its beautiful lighting, ex
cellent photography and constant
ly shifting angles. The story is a
screen original by Mildred Horn.
“Mom and Dad” is a simple, hu
man story of every-day life in an
average American town. Carl
Blackburn, popular biology teach
er of the high school, is the char
acter around Whom the story
weaves thru one interesting epi
sode after another.

Car owners are inclined to think about tune-up but most
of them need to be reminded about wheel balancing and its
value in prolonging tire life.
few drivers realize that unbalanced wheels cause spotty
wear. Further, an unbalanced condition may cause front
vibration, wheel shimmy or tramps, thus increasing wear
tear on the cai’ and. reducing stability and safety of
Ji speeds. Lack of balance may cause wear

shook absorbers and other connecting links in the steering
system. If an assembly is one ounce out of balance at the
thread it will develop a 12-pound vibrating force at 50
mile per hour. It is common to find wheels from 6 to 12
ounces out of balance. Thus it can be realized that when the
heavy points of the wheel and tire assembly pound the road
with’a 72 to lfl< pound force it will cause spotty tire wear
and may result in setting up vibration.
We are equipped to balance your wheels static and dynamic,

Insect Repellent is
War Development
Another product of the war
whose peace time application will
prove a boon to bush workers and
farmers is now .being made com
mercially available in the form of
Insect repellent developed .by the
U.S. Navy. Once before the North
ern frontiers were pushed hack for
Canadian wheat growers by Dr.
Charles E. Saunders’ famed clim
ate resisting grains. Now bom of
war, the new formula will push,
even more quickly the peacetime
march of civilization into the wild

ican Naval formula will permit
men of the out-doors to put in a
full working day, a day completely
free of mosquitoes, black flies, and
other winged instects.
This greaseless, stainless and
virtually odorless insect repellent
is the result of three years’ inten-
stive research by the United ’States
Naval Medical Research Institute,
at Betheda, Md. Spurred on by the
demands of jungle fighters that an
effective repellent be produced,
