Very good. One of the best and most informative of the recent March of Time issues. In the United States today, 10,000,000 people, or 7 per cent of the total population, are over 60 years of age, in contrast to 100 years ago, when the average life ex pectancy was 60 years. With medical science steadily in creasing the life span, most old folks are happy and contented but only a few of them are prosperous. The Townsend Plan and the Federation Employment Service are doing their part to place old people in suitable jobs. ADMISSION Merrie Melody Cartoon MATINEE SUNDAY 1:45 “PAYING THE PIPER” 55c
