Both were designed to relieve the burden on the pension fund because of the large number of retirements, There were 382 affirmative votes to 10 negative on the $75 plan, by which pensions would be limited to that amount regardless of number of years of Bervlee over 20. The minimum would be $50 a month, with Increases of $2.50 a year up to th $75 a month maximum. The firemen voted 258 to 176 to increase monthly pension dues from $1.50 to $3.

Another change apparently approved by 334 to 97, would grant temporary pensions in lieu of sick benefits to men dropped from the payroll because of physical disability. Less than 60 votes were cast on two other proposed amendments, one of them to cut monthly pension increases by $1 a month after 20 years' service, and the other to set a limit of $80 a month as the maximum pension allowance with $2 a year Increase up to the maximum after 20 years service.

But nine times in ten they are symptoms only of slow stomach. Did you know you can regulate your stomach to empty in six hours, as it should? That this is as 6asy as moving the bowels? One box of Pape's Diopepsin will test your stomach and correct your digestion time in a couple of days at a cost of twenty-five cents!

We mean Marie Dressier and Polly Moran, that great comedy team who can put more laughs in one feminine spat than most comedians can squeeze into eight reels of film. The excuse for their fights and subsequent "love feasts" is detailed in "Prosperity," current attraction at the State. The pair set out to solve the problems of the depression in their own Inimitable way, most of it centering about the idea that a laughing nation is a happy nation. And their serio-comic battles, interspersed with a little drama and a touch of pathos, result In a mighty entertaining show.

As the bank president who finds herself ruined by a run on her bank, Miss Dressier continues her great work of earlier films. Friend Polly is the imp who withdraws all her money and starts the bank run, Add to this the fact that their respective son and daughter are married, and you have fuel enough for an extremely lively and in this instance hilarious scrap. is a great bit of entertainment. It is highly recommended. J.

M. S. Century Kay Francis and William Powell, excellent actors that they are, do remarkably well In "One Way Passage," now showing at the Century, a film that to some extent is vaguely dissatisfying. Perhaps it is the fact -that Mr. Powell, as a murderer fleeing Justice, Is glorified to the point of annoyance, The two meet on a steamer bound for San Francisco.

Each has a secret to conceal, he that he is a criminal, she that she faces constant death from a heart affliction. Love springs up between them and the picture is brought to a climax when he finally reveals he is a fugitive from justice. M. W. H.

Lyric Joe E. Brown always manages to get into the most Inextricable scrapes, only to emerge at the end with a grin on his face as wide as a barn door. He performs this feat again in "You Said a Mouthful," now at the Lyric. As a marathon swimmer who doesn't know an Australian crawl from a breaststroke, poor Joe has quite a team winning the Catallna island long distance swim, but as might be suspected, he succeeds in a most surprising fashion. Ginger Rogers is the young lady for whose love he faces a watery grave.

J. M. S. Bremner Hits Schools' Course for Beauticians Unable to keep Minneapolis schools open the whole year because of lack of funds, the school board nevertheless is instituting a beauticians' course, W. H.

Bremner, receiver of the Minneapolis and St, Louis railroad, told the American Railway Development association at its annual meeting in Chicago. "When I was a boy, the function of schools was to teach fundamentals only," he commented. Mr. Bremner termed re-election of SL017 If your stomach is an hour slow, two tablets will remedy the trouble. Then eat anything.

Baked beans every noon if you like them, and lobster at midnight suppers. They will digest like crackers and milk in a six-hour stomach I Pape's Diapepsin is good for you, because it stimulates the gastric flow. Use it freely until the stomach is working right without any help. When it slows down, take diapepsin again for a day or two. This helps coffee drinkers and hard smokers, too.
