“THE KITCHEN LADY,”
STRAND TODAY EXTRA
(Paramount-Mack Sennett—Reviewed
by Peter Milne,-M. P. News.)
"The Kitchen Lady” may be de
pended upon to create an uproar in
nny house, as can practically all
the Sennett comedies, but the man
ner in which the laughs are secured
Is strikingly unusual in these two
reels which bear Eddie Cline's name
as director. While the work of Slim
Summerville, Louise Fazenda and
Glen Cavender la undoubtedly praise
worthy, the chief objects of attention
In “The Kitchen Lady” are a bear, a
goat, a cat and a fish. Rather a
queer assortment for .comedy leads,
but some slight idea of the fun can
be gained by relating the scene in
which the goat treats Louise unkind
ly after the usual fashion of goats,
the fact that the cat after having her
tall nipped by the fish expresses hdr-'
rcr at the bear with a fine sense of
facial expression, and the series of
llahses in which Glen qnlte against
bis own will, does a wild and furious
iance with the bear.
To make the animals do the right
thing at the right time must have re-
qulred the greatest pains In direct,

ciate this and "The Kitchen Lady'
besides making all who see it laugh,
will set them talking about It. Mr.
Cline's genius for creating comedy

In enthusiastic accord with the

drew prolonged applause with his'
tribute to President , Wilson as the
greatest man who hah ever occupied
the presidential chair.
C. H. Kelley, well-known Atlanta
wholesale grocer, followed Dr. Soule
and told of a recent conference with
Administrator Hoover.
"It is not up to us to say Whether
Washington Is right or wrong. Some

Major D. V. McClatchey, executive
secretary tor the food administration
Ip Georgia, explained various methods
of saving that are being recommend
ed by the administration.
Farmers came in tor a lively share
of discussion when someone asked:
“Are the farmers doing their full
share In war- work!”
"No!” camp the general chorus.
"They are not making the proper
sacrifices,” said some one.
"Suppose they go ahead and plant
cotton 7” one of the grocers asked.
"Well what will they do next fall
with no food?” asked Dr. Soule.
Several of the grocers expressed
the belief that farmers as a class
have been lax In responding to war
work and Dr. Soule expressed the
hope that they will rise to the oc
casion and make Georgia an object
lesson for other states.

Hospital records show that every
time you cut a corn you invite lock

soft corn or callus without even one
little twinge of pain.
You simply apply a few drops of
this freezone on a tender, aching
corn and the soreness Is instantly
relieved. Shortly the entire corn can-
be lifted out, root and all, with your
fingers.
This drug is sticky but dries at
once and Is claimed to just shrivel
