Thursday, Friday, and Satur

/ And merrily the parade of War
ner muskkda goes on. Again we
have those tuneful lore-bird*, Roby
Keeler and Dick Powell and the
entire West Point cadet corps paas-
* ing in review, all skillfully
twined to make an excellent and
entertaining picture. Cheer* and
more cheers for a film musical
that lets you savor the full flavor
of the piece sans backstage at
mosphere, and totally minus over
head shots of dancugg girls’ legs
making pinwheels. Pa&all is the
young and handsome army private
stationed in Hawaii who, upon
meeting the general’s daughter, de
cides he would like to become an
officer and a gentleman via the
West Point route. This locality is
the background for a grand show
of the life and ability of the Kay-
dets. Of course, Powell sings his
way throughout the picture. The
picture doesn’t tax the brain, but
leaves you relaxed.
Hospital Combines Medical Efficiency
With Sincere Affection and Concern for
Aggie Convalescents; Students Likeable
Preview Saturday aight at the
Palace: “The Merrg Widow."
Maurice Chevalier is once more
the gay, loving, dashing adventur
er, who, for the love and aeeda of
bis little back-yard kingdom and
its ruler, aets out to marry the
wealthy and beautiful widow. Joan-
ette McDonald. In the course of
the picture he murders severs!
songs with his crude singing, and
stalks around lobking very un
comfortable in the uniform of a
Marshovian captain. The picture
ia from the popular play of the
same title, and the story has lost
little of its charm in action by
filming.
’The hospital is a modern brick
building with a capacity of 100
beds, and is equipped with operat
ing room. X-ray and laboratory
facilities. It is supervised by one
full time physician, a technician,
and three nurses."
That, no more or loss, is the con
cise description of the College Hos
pital given in the school catalog
And, for a well man, it la suffi
cient. But, for those who have
been forced to receive the benefit
of that medical fee (and who has
n’t?), It is hardly enough. That
which ia moat important to eon-
valoscence of any kind—a combi
nation of medical efficiency and
sincere affection and concern—I
been neglected recognition. That
efficiency is there is not doubted,
snd sincerity can be easily dis
cerned underlying a sometimes
feigned hardnses and indifference,
which is affected to forestall any
possible development of self-sym
pathy.
“We know these Aggies—!>e-
cause when a boy is sick or hurt,
the veneer of pretense ia goi
the hoy and what he really is elone
remain. And they’re not half as
ace: “Peck’s Bad Boy.“ -
Jackie Cooper plays in the title
role, and does a good job of it,
too. However, Jackie Searl steals
the picture from him in a leas
desirable role. The picture is tak
en from the well known old story
of the same title. Cooper success
fully fights and scowls hit war
through the picture, but ha ap
pears to have outgrown such Tolas
as this. However, the picture is
well directed and filmed.

if seventeen year's continuous ser

long way in making our duty more

public falls for the strong, nigged,

Harvesting to-

iotv) a scene at a
Southern tobacco
auction.
ANY men of the South have
been “in tobacco” for years—growing tobacco
and curing it—buying it and setting it—until
they know tobacco from A to Izzard.
Now folks who have been in tobacco all
their lives, folks who grow it, know there is
no substitute for mild ripe tobacco.
And down in tkt South where they grow tobacco
and where they ought to know something about it—in
. most places Chesterfield is the largest-selling cigarette.
