Giigli Star OF
"Continental"

The most amusing scenes of the
continental film, My Heart Be
longs to YOU" are those of the
puppet theater. according to Mr..
and Mrs. Landsberger, newcomer
to Tacoma, who saw the film
aboard ship when they emigrated
from Hungary to this country two
months ago. They are anxious to
see it again tonight when the pic
ture will have its first Pacific
coast showing at the Lakewood
theater.
Beniamino Gigli universally ac-
claimed as the worlds greatest
tenor since Caruso, is the featured
star.
MY Heart Belongs to You" was
filmed in Italy with the great
tenor supported by Carla Rust and
an all-star German cast. The mu-
steal score, arranged by Alois Nell
char. includes compositions by
Brahms, Grieg. Flothow. Auber,
Schubert. Rossini and Verdi. A
catchy love song, bearing the name
of the picture, was especially writ
ten by c. A. Bixio as the theme.
The film is well equipped with
English dialogue titles. A CONT
mental travelogue, "Over the Alps
to Italy is on the same bill.
There will be two performances
each, tonight and tomorrow, at
and Q o'clock. Due to the holt
day schedule. the first bus for
Lakewood will leave tonight at
5:45; the bus for the second show
to follow at $50 p. m.

can see no happiness for you in
the future with your husband. He
seems to have made this trip with
another woman when he could Just
as well have taken you. My
candid opinion is. the sooner YOU
are rid Of him the better off YOU
VIII be. This lady he made the
trip with, in case you are inter-
ested. is an old girl friend of yours
with the initials E. r.
c. r. P.-Q. WIN I make my
trip:
A. Yes, you seem 10 make your
trip around the 18th of the COM
Ing month. The trip, in my opin-
ion. is to San Francisco, Los An
geles and San Diego and it will
turn out perfectly all right for
you.
c. A. No. What happened to
my boys baseball bat that he left
on the front porch:
A. This bat seems to have been
taken Monday night by young
man who lives about three blocks
down the street. am quite sure
, his first name is julius.
s. r. So. l. this operation
going to benefit my mother
A ! am not a medical man and
cannot give medical advice such
as advising an operation. How
ever. you seem to have very fine
doctor so l think IL would be wise
for your mother TO follow his
advice, and l am quite sure her
health will improve.
c. DO. What happened to our
eat that disappeared
A. Although you have heard that
the tdli NhASH stcUls 70 De u Yer
beautiful Persian, has been killed
] do not believe so. The cat, in
my opinion, has been picked up
by a little girl and is less than
six blocks away from you. and l
sincerely believe that you will look
out OF your window one morning
within the next six weeks and
find the cat is back home. They
are keeping it penned up at the
present time inside their home but
it will certainly get out and re-
turn.
X. r. CO. Should I take the
Job that has been offered me in
Oregon:
A. Frankly, I think the best
thing for you to do is remain
where you are as long as possible.
To me you seem to have had at
least four different jobs in the
last two years and keep changing
all the time. You do seem to be
a very fine skilled mechanic and
] think you could get somewhere
if you would stay in your present
work without switching around all
the time
NJ. A. CO. VIII you please
advise II I'll have to work In an
office all my life:
A. You still have to work in an
office all through this year and
the latter part of next year. The
latter part of next year there is
either an inheritance, sweepstakes
ticket, or a very rich man coming
into your life because after that
l do not believe you will have to
worry about money.
s. b. Do. When will l get
married and who will IL be?
A Marriage for you, in my
opinion, is 1871. ! think you will
take trip to Alaska next year,
and while on this trip will meet
2 short, slightly stout man about
five yearA older than you. How
ever, he will be an especially nice
person. l think his initials will
be A. R. and think it will be a
very good marriage for you.

Santa Gets A Break Remember
the man mentioned here who was
so happy over receiving nine checks
from defunct bank only to find they
totaled a mere $1.33? His disappoint-
ment was not permanent. Something
else happened to him.
He had worked day and night for
week and was tired and worried.
The week had been full Of minor
business mishaps that had used
money he had hoped to have for
Christmas. Again he and his business
associate were working at night, and
their business took them some ten
miles from town. On the way the
car hit something or rather some
thing hit the car, almost as though
it was attacking them. They stop
ped and walked back to see what it
was It was an animal, apparently
dead Although at first inclined tC
leave it there, they finally threw it
into the trunk compartment of the
car. There it stayed until late that
night when they opened the compart-
ment preparatory to returning home
The animal almost sprang into their
faces They recovered from their sur
prise when it fell to the ground, and
as it lay still they examined it. It
was q fox F. dead One Of the men
at the plant took il and skinned it.
Our worried friend took it to a man
whose business is furs and the
animal they came SO nearly leaving
in the road turned cut TO be one of
Of the finest furs ever seen around
these parts what a break for
