See Well To Drive Your Car

Are you as well equipped to soe to drive your car as 1T IS to carry you safely? It is the conviction of thoss competent to judge that the number of accidents would be greatly re- duced if drivers were as care- llll of their vision as of the condition of their cars. A thorough examination of the eycl should PRECEDE the issuing of l driver's license.

'I‘1ie Lawrence Family - exactly one dozen in all — came to the Prince Edward Theatre yesterday and before e capacity audience at both afternoon and evening per- formances turned out a musical act that has yet to be surpassed in these parts.

Their ability and versatility as musical entertainers icit no doubt on the minds of their listeners mid the united opinion of all was "It's a swell show."

Each member of this family is a talented performer in his O1‘ her own right. and for 50 miuutcsa lost night, including time for cncores, they combined to put across a pro- gramme of rare musical excellence. The character of music they pro- vlde is delightfully refreshing, iuicl there is none of the blatant jazz in any of their prcscntations-ivliicli is one outstanding feature of the pcr- iormaiice.

With remarkable preciseness and dexterity they played numbers on every conceivable type of instrument and included in the layout were. Swiss handbells, xyiophones, musical tyre, comets, sousaphone and drums —the latter being handled by the nine year old member of the group. George Lawrence, eldest member of the family. is musical director. and knows “his music." his trumpet solo "Camival of Venice" being en- thusiastically received,

Leila Lawrence delighted the audi- ence with her xylophone number. and Kelly Lawrence, the baby of thc family, and her little older brothcr did a specialty number with hand- bells that brought clown the house.

The musical numbers are inter- spersed with singing, dancing, and comedy dialogue, but it is the instru- mental work that constitutes the backbone and peculiar charm of the whole arrangement.

Father mid Mothcr Lawrence rc- ceived e. warm welcome from the crowd.

Also on the programme is thc fen-

DON'T BE A CARBON COPY OF YOUR PET FILM STARXS STYLE

HOLLYWOOD, Sept. 3—This business of women copying the clothing styles they see in the movies is all right to some extent, but a certain discretion should be used, Omsr Kiam, New York de- signer, said today.

Kiam, who is here under tract to Samuel Goldwyn designing ]costumes foi- Anna Steri in a new -plcture, said he recognized the screen "experts the greatest influ- ence upon the style-consciousness of the country today."

"But." he emphasized, "some- times it is not so good for a woman to carbon-copy the gown of her favorite actress. Just because it may have looked well on the actress.

"It is important to keep in mind that screen styles are designed for a. certain actress in keeping with her characterization in a. certain picture, and the environment of its plot. In the some way, the smart

Then began the battle-still un- ended-of medical sciences efforts to restore consciousness to the young woman.

All they have been able to do has been to keep up her physical strength by forced feedings of nourishing liquids. Until last June she was fed by nasal tube.

The early treatment included serum injections made from her blood but thcse were without re- sults although there have been per- iods of increased restlessness when the watchers thought Patricia was on the fringe of waking.

A blood transfusion was tried a month ago. The blood was given by her step-father, Peter Mlley. Anx- iously, the doctors and family watched. but there has been no noticeable change.

A transfusion from a person who lied recovered from sleeping sick- ness has been given up, thc family said.

Kiam said screen styles mostly are “greatly exaggerated."

“They have to be to register ef- fectively.

"The wisely chic woman will choose the best features of her favored, screen gowns and adapt them to her own particular needs."
