Making Its gala New England
premiere at the State on Sunday Is
one OF the outstanding successes OF
the season Ozark Command" with
Claire Trevor and John Wayne
sharing starring honors and featur-
ing Walter Pidgeon at the head Of
q large supporting cast.
The story concerns itself with the
troubled days OF the Civil War and
recreates the adventures OF Cantrell,
the Infamous raider, whose exploits
won for Kansas the epithet Bloody
Kansas. Pidgeon takes the part OF
Cantrell and his portrayal Is said
TO line up with the best character
roleg OF the year.
Staid and plous school, master by
day, and lood-thirsty renegade by
night, Cantrell's name became by
word during those trying days and
Pidgeon lends to the role a sinister
quality which Is guaranteed TO send
chills down the backs of audiences.
Wayne and Miss Trevor again
demonstrate their qualifications as
an unrivaled romantic team. Re-
peating their co-starring success In
"Stagecoach" they endow their roles

CHANGE OF MEDICINE

CHANGE OF MEDICINE
Luoius A. Seneca, as early as 40
A. D., recorded his opinion that
nothing binders q cure so much as
frequent change OF medicine, Per-
haps that was true In Seneca's day,
Nowadays most medicine Is fairly
safe, that Is, II prescribed or admin
istered by the physician, and a
change OF medicine, when indicated
by the progress Of the malady under
treatment, involves no additional
hazard.

In particular, I wonder whether tho
familiar slang expression He can

Trying II on the dog Is another
familiar expression OF obscure origin,
As n sophomore medical student I
began trying things on the dog and

Prof. Meyers: I'VE need trade

tive forces for the public welfare

tries cannot be assured merely by
distributing more money for con-
sumers to spend"
Prof. Bancroft: Income, espe-
cially industrial, is limited socially
by total goods and services pro-
duced. If returns do not cover
costs, the increase of the total
claims to existing goods by addi-
tions to monetary stocks, bank
credits or public debt will not cor
rect losses. Any number of mort
cages do not add to the value of
the underlying real estate. Diverse
complicated political jugglery may
be nothing more than the old
trick of attempting to lift one
self by ones own 'bootstraps."
Dean Griffin: 1.-THE problem of
recovery is one of inducing such
capital expansion, and under our
system of private economy such
an expansion must be undertaken
by business men. The problem is,
therefore, to induce business men
to undertake expansion of plant
and facilities. 1t is the business
man and not the consumer who Is
the key to the problem"
Prof. Dowrie: 'The present fm-
provement has spread to capital
goods as well. This is an encour-
aging sign, for unless construction
and heavy goods share in a period
Of improved business, it is likely
to prove as fragile as its predeces-
