HONEY, HoppITy
 STAR IN 'MR. BUG
 AT 10TH CENTURY
Teehnitolor Feature Re veaIs Most Enchanting
 Folks Imaginable

You may not be aware of 1t at at your feet. Yes, indeed, busy little world of fascinating people, more commonly known as insects. They have a wonderful life of their own that parallels ours in highly amusing, and amazing ways.
 For instance, right in that little patch of grass outside your door or in your back yard, if you have one-live the most exciting and en- chanting little folk imaginable. They love and laugh and quarrel as they fit out of the way of your careless feet They are products of the brilliant imagination of Para mounts Fleischer Studio artists who have created new feature length cartoon picture in Technical or called MT. Bug Goes To Town" which comes to the 20th Century Theatre Sunday.
 The stars of the film are Honey, a beautiful little bee; Hoppity, her grasshopper boy-friend; c. Bagley Beetle, the no-good number one vil- lain of the piece, aided and abetted in his nefarious schemes by Swat, the Fly, and Smack, the Mosquito. Then there are Honey's father, MT. Rumble, a kindly soul, and Mrs. Lady Bug with her two children, Ambrose and Murgatroyd.
 The story of MT. Bug Goes To Town" is a modern tale of what happens to this little community when their existence is threatened from without by the construction of a skyscraper and from within by the treachery of MT. Beetle.
 Five song hits-"We're the Couple in the Castle" Be My Little Baby Rumble Bee" "Katy-Did, Katy Didn't I'll Dance at Your Wedding and Boy, Oh Boy!"-add to the enjoyment of this picture.

JorMe., Who Shave >DaiIy~
Special Preparation Soofhes Skin, Saves Time
Needs No Brush

For men who must shave every day doctors, lawyers, businessmen and others = Glider is invaluable. It is a special cream for daily shaw CTS. It is neither sticky nor greasy.
 To use Glider, first wash your face with hot water and soap to remove grit and oily sebum that collect on whiskers every A hours. Then spread on Glider quickly and easily with your fingers. Never brush.
 Glider i,,sfonfly smoofhs down the flaky top layer of your skin. It enables the razor's sharp edge to glide over your skin, cutting your whiskers close and clean without seropins or irrifosins your skin. Glider eliminates much of the irritation that frequent shaving may have for the tender face, and leaves your skin smoother, cleaner.
 Glider is made by the 100-year- oldJ. B. Williams Company. Try it!

August Crop
Report Is Most
Encouraging

The following comment on the
August crop report was made re-
Gently by Marvin Jones, War Food
Administrator. The July crop re-
port made il clear that farmers IN
the face of many difficulties had
substantially met, and in some cases
exceeded. the crop acreage goals.
During July. growing conditions
were favorable and current indi-
cations are that yields per acre in

record. The progress of the years
production so far is gratifying. The
hard work and the determination
of farmers have placed us in a po-
sition To meet essential food needs,
given average weather from now
on.
However, the crops are still to
be harvested, marketed. and pro-
cessed, and in the case of the feed
crops. fed TO livestock Farmers
will need additional workers for
harvest. and food processing indus
tries are short handed. The war;
time food problem is not solved,
though present production pros
