College Degree Worth
100000. Experts Find


Statisticians and research investi-
gators have at last run down the elu-
sive and much discussed dollar and
cents value of college education and
have fixed it at 100000. Their sur
vey reveals that the average unframed
boy goes to work at the age Of ID,
earns less than $1,700 year, SO that
his income from Ia to 60 totals $64, 900.
The high school graduate, they find.
starts work at 18, reaches his maxi
mum income of $500 at 80 and by 60
has earned total of $SS,000. The
college graduate, they learned, starts
his career at about %, has caught up
with the high school graduate by 80
and at 60 is earning from $4,000 to
$4,000 year with total earning at
60 of between 100000 and 100000.
Figures from the same survey pro-
duced by the statistical department Of
Union Central Life Insurance Com
pany show that out of 1000 children
entering grade school only % graduate
from college. Lack of funds Is re-
vealed as the main reason for leaving
school and educational insurance is
now advocated as a means of giving
a higher percentage the break which

 The companion feature is "Blondie Johnson" starring Joan Blondell with Chester Morris. Joan has the role of beautiful, but cold, hard and ruthless leader of band of crooks whom she rules with an iron hand. In this picture she dominates the male of the spe- cies even as the male has dominat- ed her in recent productions.

PALACE BOOKS
 COLBERT-MARCH

Colbert March co-starred in sparkling drama by author of "Private Lives" now at Palace.
 With Fredric March and Clau- dette Colbert as the stars, "To- night Is Ours'' opened to-day at the Palace theater and proved as delightful a piece of romanticism as has come this way in a long time.
 The film is based on a play by Noel Coward, author of "Private Lives" and many other outstand- ing successes. Therein lies the reason for the brilliance of its dia- logue and the light-hearted gaiety of much of its action. Edwin Jus tus Mayer, author of 'The Fire brand" and other romantic plays, did the adaptation for the screen. Therein, the reason for its glam- orous overtones. Stuart Walker, adept both in comedy and high TO- nance, has done his usual fine job of directing.
 As for Miss Colbert and March. these two extraordinary young players have seldom been seen to better advantage than in the role of the lovers, who meet in Paris, are parted, and find each other again for a night of love on the night before the girls scheduled marriage to another man. They make one of the finest romantic teams on the screen. Secondary roles, too, are brilliantly portrayed by such players as Alison Skip worth, Arthur Byron and Paul Cavanaugh.

 The elephants and the dogs, umberstone and Marcin found,

ENCOURAGE KIDNAPPING

London.-Anyone who intends to rob bank messengers in this town will have to be a kidnaper as well as a robber. Bank clerks who carry cash and negotiable documents from one bank to another no long CT carry them in a case attached only to their wrists. They now use stout chain which is strapped across one shoulder and under the waistcoat of the clerk. This not only makes it impossible to snatch the case away from him, but leaves his hands free to protect himself.
