Oil in them thar hills? Sir, ifs EVERYWHERE THE INK which forms these words has oil in it. So has the paper. As you sit reading, oil softened the wool in your clothes for weaving, colored your black shoes, helped de sign your necktie. For oil, now adays, goes into almost every thing. Daily you don oil, eat it, and if at birth you joined the ladies wear it on your face. Mais oui, madame! But yes! Those face creams, the most delicate, the most inspiring, start with petrolatum, born in turn of heavy lubricating oil. Lip rouge contains wax from oil. Mascara draws come-hither from both wax and petrolatum. Naturally, they're refined to the nth degree as is the oil you take for your stomach's sake. If you're a sinus sufferer as who isn't these days oil carries ephedrine for you to the spot where it's needed. Oil heat may have rescued for you the oranges for your morning orange juice. Actually it's completely im possible to realize the extent to which oil has become inter woven into every necessity and every comfort of living. With out oil, the modern world would come instantly to a dead stop. And unless it could be instantly restored nobody would care much.

But whatever convictions I nave, none is stronger than my amaing belief that the security and well being of the American people can best be served by the democratic processes which have made this country strong and great." He added, however, their futures rested "not on chance alone, not on mere conservatism, mere smugness. mere fatalism, but on the affirmative action which we take in America."

Mr. Roosevelt told the students he was still a be liever In capitalism despite what they read In "newspapers and heaid on the air."

He said other men In public life had protested against certain forms of economic control and epithets far stronger than any he had ever used had been employed by other presidents. "Those of ms who knew Woodrow Wilson and Theodore Roosevelt and Grover Cleveland could hardly call them mollycoddles," he said.

The president quoted at length a letter written In 1908 by President Theodora Roosevelt to a friend who was "fighting for social and political decency" on the Pacific coast and who faced the opposition of men of wealth and social standing. Do not get disheartened: and keep up the fight," the former presi dent wrote. Need Objective What "T. R." had ssid In effect. said the president, was the Ameri can people must have "definite" ob jectives for improvement of govern ment and social and economic con ditions: second, there must be car ried out by "definite" action, and third the government and the peo ple must have two essential qualities first, a sense of proportion and perspective and, second, good will and a sense of humor. Almost every crisis of our his tory since 1789," he said, "has be come a crisis because of a lack on the part of leaders or the part of the people themselves, or both, of some of these essentials." In accepting an honorary degree of doctor of laws from the university the president paid tribute to the school for its "liberal teaching."

Shoud you sign your Christmas cards "Mr. and Mrs."? That depends on whether the cards are engraved, printed or signed by hand. Engraved cards follow the rules for visiting cards, consequently, "Mr. and Mrs." la proper. It la considered a little better to have the card read Mr. and Mrs. Merry Holiday wish you a very merry Christmas and a happy New Year" rather than "A very merry Christmas and a happy New Year from Mr. and Mrs. Merry Holi day." Printed cards fall Into two cate gories, rather formal ones meant to be sent to o very one and Informal ones, designed for Intimate friends. If you send out printed cards for formal use In place of engraved ones, then "Mr. and Mrs. Is proper. If, however, your cards are Intended as Informal greetings to good friends omit the "Mr. and Mrs." On cards signed In ink, the hus band's or wife's name may come first, although ordinarily the person sign ing would put his own name lass. In general, the husband's name comes first. How should cards be addressed? No card should ever be sent with out a Mr., Mrs. or Miss prefix. (A young boy may be addressed a "Master" although that's being used less and less.) An unmarried woman la always addressed as "Miss." A married woman whether bar husband is alive or not Is addressed with "Mrs." prefixed to her husband's full name. A woman's maiden name Is used only on legal papers or when ahe usee her maiden name profes sionally. In case of divorce, however, the name may have been changed by legal procedure. In that event, ad drew your card to the divorcee's legal name. BIRTHS Born at Sacred Heart hospital De cember a to Mr. and Mrs. John Hauk of 303 Elm street, a baby girl weigh ing 8 pounds, 3 ounces.
