"Chip Of the old Block Universal's latest Donald O- Connor-Peggy Ryan feature which comes to the Lyric theatre Sunday and Monday, is by all odds the best of the lively com edy musicals which have teamed these engaging personalities.
 Donald again plays the irrep- resslble American youth with a great capacity for fun and laugh ter. and Peggy Ryan, whose rare talents for fast comedy are rlvall- ed only by her nimbleness as an eccentric dancer, is a sure-hre complement for him.
 Sharing honors with them is Anle Blyth, 17-year-old stage star. who is Donald's new roman tic interest, and Joel Kupper- man, radios already+famous "Quiz Kid". Featured players in- clude Helen Vinson, Helen Brod- erick, Arthur Preacher, Patrle Knowles, J. Edward BrOmberg. Ernest True, Minna Gombell and Samuel s. Kinds.
 The films songs-are, freshs and lively and includesthe- tunes" Of Inez James, Grace shannon, Charles Tobias, LewsBrown and Ray Henderson.

C0rd0va Fire
 Threatens Town

Cordova (SpeciaD-Fire caus- ed by a shorted radio receiver transformer threatened the en- tire western half of this town at 1:45 am Monday and only quick work by the volunteer fire de- partment and US. Coast Guard fire fighters brought it under control
 The blaze started in a radio in the Elk's club room on the sec ond floor of the Mcdonald build- ing, the lower floor of which is occupied by McDonald's Cor dova Drug Go. The overloaded transformer burned out the top of the radio, spread to the walls and window curtains in the cor her room and then into the attic where 1t broke through the cor nlce of the building. Sparks and flames where famed by a willi- waw blizzard and snow storm
 Firemen poured tons of water into the attic. The water dam- age to the big drug store stock and fixtures will probably run into several thousand dollars.

the story Of 1t. Col. J. II. X.

Col. Hutchinson, having been

was something in the way, OF
sabotage TO be done in occupied
France at which the lieutenant
colonel was an expert.
II was decided he should drop
into enemy territory by para

To aivod recognition by the
gestapo Hutchinson had his face
altered by plastic surgery.
Incidentally. before doing
this he asked for his wifes con-

old one.

large variety OF infections.
Then. when penicilhn came

Acute or prolonged infections

All, YOUNG man, here you are
n again, looking for more ad-
vice I nreSymei

n again, looking for more ad-
vice l presume!
What is IL this time?
You want advice on whom to
trust?
Listen, son. I think you and
I better take a walk out of ear
shot of certain parties before
answer, as l understand there
already slight beef out on
some OF the advice l have given
you, and l am afraid we may
get another one on this.
No one says the advice Is not
correct. They just say 1t is too
worldly. Well, it is only advice
based on my experience, and
experience is the hard way Of
learning things, so ! feel II l tip
you of in advance. you may
avoid some of my own bruises
and contusions.
Whom to trust?
Trust no one!
Yes, me laddie-buck. that is
my advice. Trust no one.
Micah, one Of the prophets OF
the Old Testament, who was
pretty much a man OF the peo-
pie, put 1t in this fashion:
Trust yet not In . friend, put
We not confidence In . guide:
keep the doors Of thy mouth
from her that lieth In they
bosom"
T THINK you ought 10 consult
i your old man about the last
part Of this, my boy, to get a
clearer Interpretation than l
feel called upon to give, though
l second the motion. OF course,
even the devil can quote Scrip
ture and l suppose II l wanted
TO be honest, l would ring in
quotations that support trust
but why should l weaken my
own advice?
Jeremiah, another prophet,
who was a ways squawking
about something said:
Take ye heed every one OF
his neighbor, and trust ye not
In any brother: for every
brother will utterly supplant and
every neighbor will walk with
ISLANDERS"
If you trust no one, you can
not come TO harm; that is
sure thing. No doubt. some will
say that IL no one trusted any
one else this would be a world
of suspicion and unhappiness,
but / do not see why you have
TO be suspicious Of some one
just because you do not trust
them, or why unhappiness should
come, OF lack OF trust il IL was
accepted as a matter OF course.
I ONCE knew a man who would
i not trust his wife around the
corner and in fact often. when
she left the house and walked
down the street he waited until
she had turned the corner then
ran down there and peeked
around IL at her.
She knew he did IL and was
not at all unhappy about IL. On
the contrary, she seemed 10 feel
a little flattered by the atten-
ton. though l must say the guy
himself always seemed a trihe
