Wellman and sandstorms mark Bright Lights career tale
Kipling's The Light That Failed filming near Santa Fe hit a delay as a desert sandstorm blew tents away. Director William Wellman, famed as Wild Bill, is noted for his past battles with storms during Beasts of Geste and Wings. The piece recounts his aviation films, acrobatic training, feisty personality, and path from Brookline to Hollywood, including wartime Croix de Guerre and early industry work with Goldwyn. It also notes his public, perpetual punch with unknown Paris rivalries and later tempering with family ties and Capra La Cava Hitchcock collaborations. Women in government, specifically Mrs. Blair Hamster as assistant secretary of the treasury, are briefly discussed.

Watering houseplants for healthy roots
Too Much Water Will Make Plants Appear Scrag gy if your house plants appear scrag gy and sickly. Use a florist pot with drainage vent, place on blocks of wood to let excess water drain away from roots. Keep soil loose with a claw tool and avoid injuring roots. The ideal method is to set plants in a tub of water and let roots absorb moisture.
