The rural situation is differ ent, for a good share of the income of farm families is nonmoney income 4t is the value of housing, food, fuel, ice and the products furnished by the farm for family use, plus the increase or minus the decrease in Pauline Wiggins, Ephegenie Miller, and Harold Lawrence.

KiIIand;;;yf ?, Dorothy Lamour and fiay Milland, the romantic team of "The Jungle Princess" are united again in the same type of picture that vaulted them to screen stardom. Miss La mour turns in an Impressive per formance as the beautiful white "goddess" living alone on a jungle isle, and evidently liking it until fate, in the form of a typhoon, forces Milland, a trans-Pacific flier, to a forced landing on her isle. Milland and Lynne Overman, his mechanic, are befriended by Miss Lamour who is" being kept on the' island by the power-mad ruler of crocodile wor shipping natives, J.. Carrol Naish, who uses her as a puppet "goddess" to maintain his hold over the super stitious islanders. Falling in love with Miss' Lamour, Milland only complicates matters and makes the situation dangerous. Naish, who is also in love with her, intends to make Miss Lamour his bride and so increase his hold over, tiie islanders. When he finds out that Milland and Overman have watched the secret 'sacrificial cere monies, he is determined that noth ing shall stand in his power-mad; way and decides to sacrifice the three of them to the native gods. While they are being led to the ! sacrificial altar by Naish's crew of Malayan islanders, an earthquake rocks the subterranean temple, free ing the trio and trapping Naish. Emerging through a fissure in the! roof they discover a yacht anchored off the island, manned by Dorothy Howe, Milland's sweetheart, left be hind when he started his trans- Pacific flight. Torn between his love for the lovely Miss Lamour and his engagement pledge to Miss Howe,! Milland is ready to sail back to civ-1 ilization when she releases him. He happily returns to the island by the side of his beautiful "goddess." I Miss Lamour sings two . excellent songs in the film, "LoveUghtin the1 Starlight" and "Coffee ami7 Kisses for Two." Her natural beauty is value of crops stored for sale and livestock. A recent survey made by the Bu reau of Home Economics, U. S.De partment of Agriculture, of 25,000 farm families in 66 counties represen tative of the different types of farm ing in this country, shows that the nonmoney income varies greatly for different parte of the country. Of the average $654 per family non- money income in Vermont, for in stance, 510 was from farm-furnished goods used by the family; the rest was increase from crops stored for sale and from livestock.

Thursday ands FryayPat and Kay new surprise as star mafi. A new co-starring team makes its screen debut at the State Theatre Thursday and Friday with the per formance of a new Warner Bros, comedy called "Women '! Are" Like That." Curiously, although they have been at the same studio for several years, the lovely, dark Kay Francis and the genial, rapid-talking Irishman, Pat O'Brien, have never before worked in a picture together. . ICeara, ago on the. stage, uiey. were teamea up m "Nigger Rich." Pat and Kay are said to make an ideal movie team. "Women Are Like That" is a gay comedy revolving around the colorful and exciting ad vertising business. You can Imagine Pat with his staccato patter selling advertising accounts and you can also fancy Kay wielding her feminine charms for the same purpose. While this movie is by no means a fashion show, the advance notices from producers say that Miss Francis (always listed among the ten best dressed women of the world) wears no less than thirty-five different cos tumes, created by the Warner stylist, Orry Kelly. The orginal story of "Women Are Like That" was by A. H. Z. Can- and was printed in a national magazine under the title of "Return From Limbo." It was made into a screen play by Horace Jackson and" the pic ture was directed by Stanley Logan who was also responsible for Kay's highly successful comedy of political life, "First Lady." In the cast that supports Miss Francis and Mr. O'Brien, are such notables as Ralph Forbes, Melville Cooper, Thurston Hall, Grant Mitch ell and Herbert Rawlinson. come for white families ranged from a high average of $712 per family per year among North Carolina oper ators down to an average of $288 for Mississippi share-croppers; and for Negro families, from a high average of $465 per family per year for North Carolina operators down to $153 for Mississippi share-croppers.

It seems to me that we need to remind ourselves that success in the past has very largely come from the use of sound sense, hard work, end confidence in our own integrity and in that of our fellow man, whether he happened to be in our own or in some other camp. 1 believe that there is ample room in this country, both in the city and in the country for honest, hard-working, savins, God-fearing people; and I do not believe that we an achieve success' and financial independence by the gratification of all of our desires and by living beyond our means.
