J. landing field," said C. E. Collins, district manager of the Western United Gas I & Electric Company. "The wonderful way in which one :V- 0 the most tragic accidents in the ,i history of aviation was so quickly re- « enacted on the 'March of Time' program is worthy of comment," Mr. i: Collins continued. Just how remarkable this feat of speedily putting the destruction of the giant dirigible on the air dramatically and giving a vivid picture of the 'Hindenburg' in flames, can be realized only by knowing that the 'March of Time' program has to be rehearsed by the dramatic staff during the week preceding and be ready for the actual performance well in advance of the presentation. "'At 7:30 "on tfie evening of the disaster news of it reached the 'March COLOR feONARD A. BAMtETT One of the most interesting experiments in physics is the diffusion of light into colors of the spectrum. Seven beautiful colors blend in perfect harmony upon a s i l v e r s c r e e n. The same effect is witnessed ih the rainbow, various shades c o m p osed of three primary, or b a s i c c o l o r s : blue, yellow &nd r^d. The presence of these colors blended together, produces white, the perfect color. $• Only within recent years has color been recognized as a very important factor, not only in a study of light, but in its effect upon human temperament and emotion. For instance, blue is known to have a very soothing effect upon the nerv- . , , ous system and to stimulate growth, of Time people. At 10:30 the regular, especially in the physical world, program was to go on the air to Seeds planted in a hot bed develop dramatize events prominent in the' four times as fast if placed under news. There was little time left to blue glass instead of ordinary wioprepare script, plan the details of the dow glass. Red is a signal of dandramatization, and rehearse the re- [ ger because it arrests the nerve [ centers and stimulates action. Perhaps the bull dotes not differentiate enactment of the disaster. But, undaunted, members of the cast, acting in the spirit that always characterizes j 'March of Time,' crowded a strenuous rehearsal of the Hindenburg disaster j into the short time remaining before the broadcast. The result was an impressively realistic dramatization. "In the CBS studios, ingenious' •props' were used to ^ portray the dis-j aster. Crumbled tissue paper, waxed j before microphones, simulated the sound of flames, and dozens of straw-1 berry boxes, crumpled by hand by members of the cast, recaptured the sound of crashing girders. With aj roar so deafening that those' in the studio had to hold thfeir ears, a varifety' of sound effects were set off, giving' the listeners an impression of what had happened at Lakehurst such a' short time before the actors went ©B1 the air." , / - I Among the Sick " James Hughes is again able to be oat after his recent illness. > M. A. Conway, who has been at St. Joseph's hospital, Elgin, for six weeks, underwent an operation Tuesday from: J"®?®18' which he rallied ^nicely. His sons, Le-j ?:1*r.aPc. c ® Boy and Ray and the latter's wife, " " Mrs. Ray Conway, were with him on Tuesday. | Dick Weber, 14-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Martin J. Weber, underwent an operation for appendicitis at St. Theresa's hospital, Waukegan, last Thursday. He is recovering nicely and hopes to return home the last of this week. He has had many visitors, including relatives and friends from this vicinity and Chicago ,among them being Mr. and Mrs. George Steilen and Mr. and Mrs. Nick Steilen, Chicago; Mrs. Joanne Rulien, school nurse, Mr. and Mrs. Leo Schaid, Father Frank Miller and the Sisters. He also received letters from pupils of the seventh and eighth grades at St. Mary's school which interested and pleased him. i»MMM Mill M MIIIIMIH Births •»»•»•«»•<•<+»«»»•»»•»•»»» Bora to Mr. and Mrs. Alex Wirfs af lily Lake, May 12, a daughter at St. Anthony's hospital, Chicago.

Red demands that we "Stop, Look and Listen." Yellow, the third in the group of primary colors,, suggests joy, relaxation and peace. When these three colors are blended together into white, wa have the effect of cleanliness, beauty and purity. Perhaps the most ^easonable explanation of the effect of color upon our emotions is that color produces vibrations at a greater intensity than those produced by heat and light. Sound is also a vibration and can be changed into colors, as when music is made to appear in the form of beautifully blended hues on a screen. When these vibrations strike the emotional or psychic centers; certain stimulations occur. This will explain the pleasing effect of a newly decorated room, the aesthetic appreciation of a sunset, the blending of colors in a rose garden, and the sense of reverence in worship in a Gothic cathedral. The psychological effect of color has been capitalized by the advertising industry. Red attracts, violet repels, black 1b always avoided. The t of visible rays of light belqmr reds or beyond violet is recognized today in the use of infrared and ultra Mttlet rays as curative means. The X-rays are beyond all estimable value. Many of the things which minister to our welfare cost little or nothing. *^he blending of perfect colors in a great picture, even though a copy, ma^ ttf to us as~an original painting. #1Mp cents will buy sufficient seedfo^ a garden of lovely flowers. Modi of the world's beauty expressed through the vibrations of color are "free"--without money and WffhOtif prtce: the golden glory ag the-stars and the cerulean blue of a summer's sky. Color, as no other gift, blends Itsell with Utinbtt of man. With Raskin, we too remember that of all God's gifts to humanity, the most beautiful and most holy is color. In the power of its visibility, men have fashioned invisible character, nations have unfurled their flags of symbolic color, and individuals have used it as a human messenger.
