No doubt some of your readers will make the same mistake I did if you don't warn them." Naturally estcd. "Tell said. I was inter ne more," I Al said, "I bought a new car and took out full cover age. The car cost $3100 and the policy agreed to pay the actual cash value in event of loss from collision. About ten months later Ihe car was in an accident. Com pletely demolished. I ex pected a check for $.1100. But I got one for $2(i(H), or SHOO less than I had paid for the car. I was sore." Al continued, "It was then I learned that the Act ual Cash Value was based on the worth of the car at the time of LOSS, not at the lime I bought the policy." "Yes," I said, "the insur uice company was actually replacing a used car. One ten months old. Perhaps 15,000 miles on it. Naturally your car then was not worth ivhat you paid for it new," For ALL the facts about Insurance, consult us. Call 152.

The program, which is free, includes a complete list of entertaining and education al pictures in full color. It will be held at Star Theater and is scheduled to begin at 1:30 p. m. A feature-length comedy, "Paradise for Buster" is the story of a would-be bookkeeper with a rare skill for incurring the merciless wrath of the company "brass". So well does Buster exercise his special tal ent that finally he and the chairman of the board reach the loud and unanimous de cision that the firm and the world in general will benefit by Buster's removal from the pay roll. And so it happens, but not before Buster falls heir to a farm left him by his uncle Burr McKeaton, a situation that gives him a new feeling of independence which he as serts at the painful expense of the bewildered "brass." With the farm, Buster also inherits more than a dog's share of troubles, and his stumbling, fumbling struggle for survival provides a story that will de light young and old alike.
