TEA'S FLAVOR The flavor of tea comes from urling and the essential oil in he Its stimulating qua! Jty from a small percent age of thein, which is chemical ly the same as the caffeine in coffee. By BOB THOMAS (last of a series on Hollywood millionaires) HOLLYWOOD So you want to be a millionaire.

If you play your cards right, have a great deal of talent and no little luck, you could make it in Hollywood. Some are doing it, though not with the regularity of the halcyon days before the big tax. If you want to join the fortunate ranks, there are certain rules you must follow. 1. Avoid working for a flat salary.

It is almost Impossible to become a millionaire on a salary today. Most of the rich stars are those who have formed their own com panics. This allows them to be! taxed on a corporate rather than personal basis. If you don't form a company, at least take a percentage of the picture profits. This brings revenue over a long period.

2. Invest in oil. That's the only way to make and keep big money from an Investment, thanks to the well-known depletion allowance. Ask Bob Hope and Bing Crosby; they'll tell you. 3.

Don't get divorced. Nothing can torpedo a fortune so fast as a broken marriage. Errol Flynn was one of Hollywood's biggest earners, but he has only recently climbed out of debt. The main reason: two expensive divorces. 4.

Live sensibly. Today's stars cannot afford to live like Harold Lloyd with his great mansion and private golf course. But a lot of them try. 5. Keep up your taxes.

Your first fiscal obligation is to Uncle Sam, and don't forget it. Once you get behind, you may never get ahead. Ask Joe Louis. Well, thpre you have it simple rules on how. to make millions in Hollywood.

One thing I can't guarantee you Happiness. The millions may bring you big houses, fast cars, beautiful wives or handsome but you won't necessarily be contented. Famous Comedy To Be Presented July 10-14 "Our American Cousin," the play Abraham Lincoln was watching wher he was assassinated, will be the second production of the 1957 season at the Kelso Hollow Theatre. The three-act comedy will open Wednesday, July 10, and will play through Sunday, July 14, at the open-air theater in New Salem State Park. Considerable research by the drama department at SIU has gone into the production In order to duplicate as nearly as possible the original scenery and costumes.

Ofllcial Army photos taken at the time of the assassi nation were obtained by Dr. Me Leod, the director, and used in designing the scenery. The 1859 script, as it was originally performed, is used to give authenticity to the production. During the final act, at thp exact point at which Booth fired! the shot that took Lincoln's life, the action will be stopped and the lights dimmed for a moment. "Our American Cousin" was presented on the Southern Illl.

nols University campus by the Southern Players, the student drama group performing at the theater this summer. The play proved to he a popular audience attraction. MURIEL LAWRENCE Baby's 'Open Look' Asks Us To Define te World to Him By MRS. MURIEL LAWRENCE IF you are a noticing person, you'll. cvl ipression come into your baby's) 'face which I'm going to call the "open look." Maybe you'll just have nursed, burped him.

put him in his crib. For a moment or so he'll lie there steeped in content. Then suddenly he'll hiccup. It will be his first hiccup. In a flash of time so swiftly gone you'll wonder if you imagined it, you'll see the open luck of purest blankness untouched even by surprise.

It will be the expression of your baby's uncormpted innocence. It will say tol you, "What is this strange thing that just happened to me? Is thism hiccup good and safe or is it bad and dangerous? How am I supposed to feel about it?" He's begun to ask you to define the world to him. WITH the open look, he'll often be asking you to define it from here on. It will appear on his face when he bumps his head for the first time, drops his spoon, hears a raicsed and angry voice. How you respond to it will have measureless influence on his trust of all future experience.

In a book called "Childhood and Adolescence" by teaching psychologists L. Joseph Stone and Joseph Church, I find these words: "The baby's experience of himself and of objects is shaped to large extent by what his parents communicate to him about it. According to their signals, things are exciting, disgusting, mysterious, alarming, pleasant and so forth. Sometimes when a baby is bumped on the head, he doesn't even know that his head hurts until he sees, hears and feels his parents' worry." THESE are important words for new mothers. As babies ourselves, our mothers answered our open look with anxiety.

So we'll feel it too when our baby falls out of his crib and bumps his head. We'll put the idea of danger into his still ed consciousness out of our own fear of it. But if we become aware of the appeal of his open look, we can easily resist the impulse to rush The altar of the Prairie Baptist Church in Sims was beautifully decorated with lighted tapers, greenery, and baskets of orchid and white gladilol for the wedding of Miss Verona Oneta Withrow and Darrell Clinton Highsmith. Reverend J. C.

Greer of Mt. Carmel performed the double ring ceremony at eight o'clock in the evening, June 28.

Willmore and Ruth Millett Do Away With Television For A Peaceful Summer Want to give your children the kind of lazy, happy summer and you remember from your own childhood? Well, here are a few suggestions for how it can be done. First of all, make it a TV-less summer. Just Retting rid of the continual noise of gunshots and canned laughter will make your home seem like a suddenly restful, peaceful place And instead of the kiclsi sitting sprawled in front of the TV set all fiiiy IOHR, they'll have to start, thinking of ways of entertaining themselves.

Building a playhouse in the back yard, cultivating a small garden plot, playing baseball or selling lemonade to the neighborhood kids will keep them happier than anything TV can offer. Cut down on your own chauffeuring so that you can have a little more time to help the children bake cookies, make a freezer of homemade ice cream or find Home old dessesof your own and some old high-heeled shoes for the little girls to play in. If you aren't driving the child to a playground, another to a swimming pool, and another across town to play with a friend Miss Bruce graduated from the Fairfield High School with the class of 1953 and in June of this year she received Bachelor of Science degree in the college of Education at SIU.

Start at least one family project in house or yard so that there is a little work and accomplishment mixed in with the hours of loafing. Plan some picnics away from home. Eating on your own patio or in your own back yard isn't the same thing for children as packing a picnic meal in a basket and exploring country roads until you find a picnic spot. No wonder the summer months seem to drive so many modern mothers close to distraction, with the TV blaring, the kids demanding to be chauffeured here and there and never any end to the noise and confusion. But old-fashioned summers can be duplicated by any mother jwho is so fed up she is willing you'll have some "time to keep to make a change.
