Auburn state orison. The sentence, imposed by Justice Bernard B. Ackermf Belmont, followed immediately the acceptance by Justice Ackerman and District Attorney Ward Hopkins, Cuba, of Hill's plea of guilty to murder, second degree The sentence was mandatory.

Pale and wan, and showing the effects of'his close confinement in he Allegany county jail here for he 'past eleven weeks, Hill was nevertheless completely composed as he stood almost timidly in the iny court room, hastily improvised because of the fact that the ourt loom upstairs was uncom- ortably cold. His right hand manacled to the eft of Harry Kemp, stalwart un- ershenff his face was alternately railing and expressionless. A gold ooth in the front of his mouth ashed prominently when he smiled broadly.

Whether his income is large or small, he lives up to it and ends one year as poor as he began. The installment plan is his salvation because it enables him to buy something useful and expensive with money that otherwise would he spent for tufles.

His only hope of "having somc- thing" 15 to burden himself with debt and then work his way out. The mere saving of money does not appeal to him because it affords no element of conflict, but a debt assumed is something to lick --a game to win--and lie feels that he Is accomplishing some- tiling But the buying jf a home, a car, a ladio and an electric refrigerated, however commendable, will iiol provide a living for his wife nnd children when his buying days are over. His one and only chance to accumulate an estate that will feed and clothe his family is to buy life insurance. The buying of lifp insurance is simply the buying of an estate on the installment plan. A $20,000 policy is nothing more or lees than deposit of $20,000 In a good rchievcd by easy payments.

Joan Crawford Role Masterful In Haven Film Joan Crawford reaches the pinnacle of her interesting career as the heroine of "Paid," which opened Sunday at the Haven trc, as a talkie version of Bayard Veiller's celebrated stage play, "Within the Law." This is Miss Crawford's first straight dramatic role and in it she achieves a brilliance of character- nation that will establish her among the front ranks of dramatic stars.

The role of Mary Turner becomes amazingly realistic in Miss Crawford's understanding hands and throughout the picture Fho maintains an even tempo of emotionalism that lends a convincing tone to her performance. The supporting cast is uniformly excellent. Robert Armstrong giving a superb poitrayal as Joe Carson, the heroic gangster who shoots the stool pigeon and' suavely "takes the rap" to free the Turner girl so that she can marry the man she cs. Armstrong's of his lines in the final scene where he Is being led away to face the electric chair is masterful. The interesting cast includes Florence Eldndge, Frank Fay Lilyan Tashman, Beryl Mercer James Gleason.

Arthur Edmund Carew and James Bradbury, in important character parts. Michael Curtiz directed. Herman Dotterweich, a former resident of Olean, Sunday moining at fiowanda State Hospital, after an illness heart disease. His only surviving relative is his sister, Mrs. Langford G.

Rollicking- Comedy Feature Picture At State Theatre I A modern version of the Knoch Arden situation is the story behind i the comedy, "The Mat'rimomal Bed now playing at the State' Theati e. Fiank Fay whose genius i comedy is never better than handling sophisticated situations is both the victim and hero of th" picture. A Frenchy faice that suddenly twists itself into real drama.

"The Matnmomal gives him his first great opportunity in the field of comedy with which he is the most familiar. Maurice Chevalier At Palace Theatre In Parisian ShoAV (A Every doubt that Maurice Chevalier finds it a hard job to hold the center of interest without help is loutcd by the "Playboy of Paris," now showing at the Palace Theatre. "Innocents of one of his first pictures, was fair. Jeanette MacDonald was just as much responsible for the success of the "Love a.s w.is Maurice But this last picture, "Playboy of Paris," is Maurice's show He is the whole show and it is good, exceptionally good. His brand of comedy is unique nnd therefore entertaining.

His singing is still pleasing And he makes love As a duelist Maurice is not "so but then he is not f-upposed to he good as a duelist. He is a waiter and a good waiter. Money does much to many but the change in Maurice is startling. Of course he "comes down to earth" eventually, a mucli wiser boy and a much more interesting lover. "Playboy of Paris," can be recommended as one of the hits of the season.

The short on the program are good.

Unless checked quickly, colds tend to pull down the body resistance and may pave the way for an attack of flu with all its serious complications Attark Colds at the Start At the first sign of sniffling, sneezing or other signs that you are "catching cold," start treatment at once with Vioks Vapo- Rub. Place some Vicks up each nostril and snuff well back. Do this several times a day. It will often keep a little cold from becoming a big one. If the head is clogged with mucus or -phlegm, or there is much coughing, melt a teaspoonful of Vicks in a bowl or kettle of hot water and inhale the steaming vapors for five minutes at a time.

i This auxiliary vapor-steam ment with Vicks has a remarkable effect in clearing the air-passages, i easing the breathing, and helps keep the cold from spreading. I Double Action Effecthe I At bedtime, order to get the 1 benefit of its long-continued stimulation and inhalation effect, rub Vicks vigorously over the throat and chest and cover with warm flannel. For Vicks attacks a cold in two direct ways. (1) through the skin like a poultice or plaster, out the tightness and I soreness, and (2) at the same time, its medicated vapors, releas- ed by the warmth of the body, I are inhaled direct to the irritated air-passages. i 1'rotcct Children, Especially Children should he put to bed at I the first sign of a cold, and Vicks i rubbed on throat and chest.

Its I use brings prompt relief, and 1 avoids constant "dosing" which often upsets the digestion. When used at bedtime, Vicks often prevents sleep-disturbing coughs, thus permitting needed rest for both mother and child. Don't i take chances with colds NOW!
