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. There will -be ances daily.

The true story behind the eventual discovery of “448” is as colorful, as dramatic, as the dis­ covery of Pasteurization, of peni­ cillin, as heroic as the battle his­ tories of the human guinea pigs who offered themselves for experi­ ments. Due to this war-born discovery, Canadians can now go forth to work or play with perfect immun­ ity from their age long enemies, the insects. A few drops of this magic liquid and complete free­ dom from bites and stings is as­ sured for eight to ten hours. I SAINTSBURY We are glad to report that Mrs F.

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 steering gear, wheel bearings, tie rod ends, kingpins Too tire end and operation at Ing on steering gear, wheel hearings, ue too. encis, 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, also front end alignment. Mathers Bros.

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.
