clouds of aggression are still omi-
nous. In the defense of our freedom
two things are essential — preserve
our national economy and utilize to
the fullest America's tremendous
productive power. The purchase of
U. 8. Defense Bonds gives every
American the opportunity to share
directly In strengthening our eco-
nomic power. Make today your "D”

taught Skip that you're belter off
if you admit you don't know all an-
swers. Some grownups haven’t
learned that yet—like the ones who
are always telling other people
what's best and what’s right and
what’s wrong. I like a temperate
glass of beer, myself, but if you
prefer buttermilk I won’t argue.
I’ve seen too many “know-it-alls”
turn out to be wrong! -i
Miss Gilbert, the teacher, was
telling me how Skip Lawson almost
went to sleep in her physics class.
She noticed him nodding and—■
since they were discussing elec-
triclty- said tn a loud voice: “Now
maybe MR. LAWSON will explain
what electricity is.” Skip started
up, looked around wildly, and
blurted out, "Gee! I used to know,
but I forgot.”
‘‘What a loss to science!” sighs
Miss Gilbert. “No one to this day
knows what electricity really is,
and here we have a genius wh®
ecu Id explain it—but forgot!”

“FATHER’S LITTLE
DIVIDEND” ENJOYABLE
The captivating Banks fam-
ily, whose adventures in
‘‘Father of the Bride” pro-
vided one of Hollywood’s most
hilarious movies, are back
again in M-G-M’s follow-up
picture, “Father's Little Divi-
dend,” to show at the Lyric
Theatre Sunday and Monday.
In the original story, we left
Spencer Tracy, as Stanley
Banks, and Joan Bennett, as
Mrs. Banks, exhausted but
happy at having launched
their “little girl,” Kay (Eliza-
beth Taylor), over the thres-
hold from unexpectedly grown
up daughter to budding bride.
The new adventures revolve
themselves about the uproar-
iously funny and warmly hu-
man happenings contingent on
Stanley Banks becoming a
grandfather!

You will learn facts about
your hearing loss, about how
the hearing organ and the
work togetrer, ’ ami
about the possible dangers to
your health and personality,
that may have never been ex-
plained to you.
See the Super-X-Ear, so
tiny that it can be worn on the
wrist, in'the watch, packet or
as an ornamental brooch. This
recent introduction now makes
it possible for you to hear as
nature intended you should. If
lou are now wearing a conven-
tional type healing aid, you
will be astounded by the ab-
sence of roar, rumble and
crackling noises. Now you
can really relax and enjoy ef-
fortless hearing, so natural
and lifelike you will not be
conscious of wearing an hear-
ing aid.
In addition, see the new
Acousticon Cordless—a hear-
ing aid that eliminated the
dangling wires or cords, elim-
inates the receiver in the ear,
and -is designed to make the
use of an hearing device as
natural, as easy, and as ac-
ceptable as the wearing of a
pair of familiar eyeglasses.
Mr. Davis will demonstrate
the revolutionary new “Skin
Receiver” which permits you
to h.car again without a but-
ton in the eaT, absolutely
nothing in the ear. You will
i pie re sj cd aik. trying this
ist advance in hearing aid

The new econotfty model
Acousticon will also be dem-
onstated. This, lowest price
instrument < makes it possible
for anyone, to have the ad-
vantages' of • good hearing
again/ You can stop being
deaf today for only $69.50.
Batteries and other acces-
sories'‘will be available, if
needed. This is just part, of
the “World Wide Service"
given by Acousticon Tnteima-
tional—(the world’s first and
oldest manufacturer of elec-
trical hearing aids). This
