Radio and television mirror (Nov 1939-Apr 1940)

WHAT DO YOU WANT TO SAY? FIRST PRIZE A YOUNG BRIDE'S ADVICE! IT seems funny to say, but it helped to save my home. As a sixteenyear-old bride, housework seemed to me a drudgery. After making a grand mess out of trying to make a happy home, I was about to call it quits. We bought a radio, and now my work is fun, for I do it to music between taking down recipes, menus, and household hints that cut my work in half. All these, including interior decorating and style hints, make it all interesting now. — Mrs. Coldwell Daniel, New Orleans, La. SECOND PRIZE HATS OFF TO THE NEWS COMMENTATORS! Hats off to the splendid news commentators on the radio. Alert, dynamic, they bring every event within the range of actuality. They also mix a little sense of humor with the news, which is relished by us all when the world is in such chaos. Certainly, news would be dull if we were forced to read it, all printed. Three cheers to our most competent radio news men! — Beatrice S. Kemp, N. Adams, Mass. THIRD PRIZE "THANKS A MILLION, DON" I'd like to pay a tribute to Don Ameche, the former master of ceremonies and star of the Chase and Sanborn hour, who had to leave the show on account of his health. I'd like to tell him how grand we, the American public, think he is. His acting with the various guest stars ' was always sympathetic. But, best of all, were his laughs, always so natural and so spontaneous that made you laugh, even if you didn't feel like it. (Continued on page 5) THIS IS YOUR PAGE!

No Job for Nancy but a big Job for Mum Why risk underarm odor — when Mum every day so surely guards your charm? SHE TRIES SO HARD— goes everywhere —but somehow for Nancy it's a brief "no opening now!" For business is business. And it never helps to have a girl around who neglects to use Mum! Constant personal daintiness is a business asset ... as much in demand as cheerfulness, ability, and speed. Why does any girl risk it? Why don't all girls play safe with Mum— every single day? For it's a gamble to depend on a bath alone to keep you fresh and sweet. A bath merely removes perspiration that is past . . . but Mum prevents odor— keeps you fresh and sweet for the hours to come. More business girls prefer Mum to any other deodorant. Mum is— QUICK! A daily pat under this arm, under that, and through the longest working day you know you're fresh! HARMLESS! Apply Mum after dressing . . . fabrics are safe. Mum has the American Institute of Laundering Seal as being harmless to any dress. Safe for skin, too. LASTING! Hours after your bath has faded, Mum still keeps underarms sweet. And Mum does not stop perspiration. Get Mum at your druggist's today. Be wise in business ... be sure of charm! Make a habit of Mum every day. WHY MUM IS FIRST CHOICE WITH BUSINESS GIRLS lEEPMUM IN MY DESK, TOO. I USE IT ANY TIME BECAUSE IT'S SAFE FOR SKIN AND CLOTHING TO HERSELF: AND NOTHING BEATS MOM FOR LASTING CHARM. JUST A DAB KEEPS ME FRESH ALL EVENING! Important to Vou — Thousands of women use Mum for sanitary napkins because they know that it's safe, gentle. Always use Mum this way, too. TAKES THE ODOR OUT OF PERSPIRATION MARCH, 1940
