Communist forces in Kiangsi province were mustered to join nationalist troops, their old enemies, 'as the Japanese advanced through eastern Hopeh almost to the border of Shantung province, which has felt only light, infrequent attacks from the Japanese.

to raise the rental rates on his private letter boxes. That paradoxical state of affairs was brought about by a postal department regulation which provides for rare increases when the local receipts pass a stipulated figure. That mark' is $300,000 and when the Jefferson City postoffice produced revenues totaling last year, Uncle Sam decided it was time he was collecting his extra rental fees. Postmaster A. Linxwiler broke the news to the renters when he placed the "rent due" notices in their boxes last week.

Starting tomorrow, ho said, the rental fee will increase from 50 cents to one dollar per box for each quarter over the rates which have prevailed several years. Around town, Jefferson Citians grumbled about the higher prices, but so far they have entered no official protests. Not that it vill do them any good--for the regulations must be enforced, the pose- master The boxes' are classified 'in five divisions according to size. Here's how the new rates will effect the quarterly rental fees: No. 1, from $1 to No.

Twenty-four youthful fans from the Broadway school kindergarten greeted their hero on his circus grounds this morning. Their beaming faces reflected their joy as they gazed at the big tents, cowboys in costume whirling ropes, and as a crashing climax, shook hands with Tom Mix. The 57-year-old cowboy, who for almost 30 years has thrilled audiences with his feats of daring stood with one foot on the railing while he leaned down to grasp the small hands. Two dozen pairs of wide-open eyes stared at his typical cowboy costume from the familiar white Stetson hat to the high tooled leather boots.

As the group of small fans picked their way through the long line of trailers which house the circus, fa es craned back for a la st ies of "Goodbye, Tom Mix," filled the air. The incident occurred while Mayor Jesse N. Owens and Mix wcre swapping stories. Shortly after, a group of representative's Governor Lloyd C. Stark arriv- ed to discuss plans for renting the State Fair grounds to Mix as winter quarters for his circus.

While nothing had been settled definitely, Mix expressed the opinion that a satisfactory agreement would be reached and the circus would soon be housed in Sedalia. Life in the circus has not yet drawn him away from Hollywood He will not remain with ihe troup for the winter but will rejoin his wife at their home in Beverly Hills, to begin work on another picture in two weeks. The actor has changed very little in appearance since his early days on the screen. In all the hair- raising adventures he faced before the camersa, leaping from runaway stage coaches, tossing bandits over cliffs and swimming dangerous rivers, Tom Mix never usea a double. His early as a cow-puncher had given him the wiry muscles necessary to meet the of his rough- and-tumble scenes.

Today he is as young-looking as he was twenty years ago. The only toll taken by ms facing danger on the screen is a difficulty in hearing. Kallenbach Sees Cole Co.
