This famous animal was the pet of a Brooklynlte living in my old neighborhood. Bay Ridge. She raised him from Infancy. Final ly Gargantua became too large for his owner's little house. Be sides, when the bell rang he would go to the door and open It. This caused several feminine visitors to swoon on the door-, step. However, there was no rea son for that. Despite the reputa tion given him later by press agents Gargantua was perfectly harmless. After being sold to a circus the giant gorilla became extremely moody and depressed. Tbe circus men thought the sad- faced animal was brooding be cause he wanted a mate. That wasn't the reason at all. He was homesick. He wanted to go, back to Brooklyn. Please Note The celebrated dermatologist, Henri Gougerot, recently read ( paper before the French Derma tologies! society and academy of medicine in which he warned against the toxic effect of some hair dyes. He gave details of the case of a Parislenne who died from poisoning after having her hair hennaed. So if your wifo is figuring on having her hair dyed be certain to tell her to have It done at a reliable and long estab lished place. Asking Queries from cllcnls: Q.

Objection 'I am a democrat and have voted the democratic ticket all my life," writes a New Yorker. ".So what I have to snv Is not based on political prejudices. I note in the recent auction sale of Franklin D. Roosevelt's stamp collection there was offered an envelope from Gen. Douglas MncArthur to the president, post marked Oct. 23, 1044. On this envelope in MacArthur's hand writing Is inscribed 'First letter from freed Philippines. Censor ed, Douglas MncArthur, general U. S. A.' This envelope was sold for $300 to a man named Schrad- skle of Peoria, III. I do not be lieve the Roosevelt heirs should have sold this historic envelope. In so doing I believe they ex hibited shockingly bad taste. If they did not want to keep It thev should have given it to the Smithsonian Institution or soma other museum." Something New Ever have a "beer malted?" Neither have I. Pete Tea, Jr., Now York city, is Inventor of this drink which he says is "made Just like a malted milk only boor Is used Instead of milk." 1'cte says this drink is "really wonderful." I'll take his word for it. Taxicabs When will small three passen ger taxicabs be permitted lo op erate in New tork and other large cities. How much longer is one taxi pascsitger lo be requir ed to pay the same rale as sev passengers? A seven passenger taxicab gets about nine miles to a gallon of gasoline. A three pas senger cat), of the type several manufacturers have offi-rcd to make, could get 20 to 25 miles a gallon of gas. The rates for three passengers or less would be accordingly cheaper.

Recognizing the menace of drunken drivers, Chief Raymond Lato ot the California state high way patrol admonished the sober: "Plan to stay home, particu larly on New Year's eVe. But if you must go out, stay in your home town and take a taxi to the place where you expect to eclebrato, or have a friend who doesn't drink drive you. The press emphasized such warnings. As a result: City merchants, mindful of the damage done their property on V-J day, boarded up their places of business to prevent their plate glass windows being smashed by drunken rowdies, and their establishments looted. Sober citizens denied them selves the ordinary celebrations of less drunken years; kept their automobiles in their garages. In a word, America sober ab dicated to America drunk. This marks a new high in the development of the unrestrained use of intoxicants in these United States. Obviously, the liquor traffic is well along on the road which 30 years ago led to pro hibition as the only escape from that traffic's domination, arrog ance and admitted evils. FRANKLIN HICHBORN.

E SOCIAL SECURITY IN THIS REGION Fourteen hundred and eigh teen monthly old-age and sur vivors insurance benefits were in force at the end of 1945 In the area served by the Klamath Falls office of the social security board, an increase of 457 over the number in force on Decem ber 31, 1944, Howard J. Nelson, manager, said today in a state ment of the activities of the of fice during the year. In giving his estimates, which are subject to minor revision, Mr. Nelson said that the increase over the year in benefits in force amounted to 46. The service area of the Klam ath Falls office Includes Klam ath, Jackson, Deschutes, Crook, Jefferson and Lake counties in Oregon, and Modoc county in California. Many Benefits The number In the different classes of beneficiaries and the monthly benefit amounts receiv ed durnlg the year were approxi mately as follows: Retired workers, aged 85 and over, 713, $16,635.25. Wives, 65 or over, of retired workers. 171. $2,032.96. Widows with young children. 113, $2,161.71. Children of deceased or re tired workers, 364, $4,350.31 Aged widows of workers, 55, $1,122.20. Mr. Nelson said that a mark ed increase in number of appli cants for old-age and survivors insurance benefits following the end of the war had been antici pated. Many persons who have been eligible for benefits have delayed filing in order to help out In the war industries. "I should like, to pass on word of advice or caution to those persons who are not forced by advancing age to retire, but who are beyond the age of 65 and are giving the question thoughtful consideration," Mr, Nelson said. "It is: Call at the local office of the social security board. It may be advantageous for you to file your claim at once. The people al the office can help you. They will do it gladly." Keep Your Cards Mr. Nelson said that all hold era of social security account cards should guard them well "People who have earned con siderable wage credits In cover ed employment during the war Knd who are now returning to household duties, to school, or to other pursuits, may feel that the card Is no longer of value to them, he said. In. manv cases that will not be true. Many of these persons may return to cov ered employment in Ihe near fu ture, whether they now contem plate that action or not. The soc ial security card identifies the account to which all past wages earned by the worker in covered employment have been credited and to which future wages will be credited. It may represent an insurance policy to dependents of the wage earner in event of tragedy."

KEEP INSURANCE POLICIES ALIVE, Salem The majority of re turning servicemen are neglect ing to keep their national service life insurance policies in force despite the obvious advantages of this insurance, Hugh E. Ros- son, director of the State depart ment of Veterans' Affairs, said today. Only two out of 10 veterans In Marion county are keeping their NSLI insurance paid up, according to the county service officer, and Rosson said this figure coincided with the na tional estimate disclosed in an article entitled "Soldier, Hold On To Your Insurance!" in De cember's Better Homes and Gar dens and February's Reader's Di gest. Veterans' insurance experts point out that NSLI has a cash value after the first year, and it can be borrowed on, up to 94 per cent of its cash value after it has been converted and in force one year. Also, if a veteran be comes disabled for longer than si months his insurance remains in force free of charge until his recovery. Rosson said Veterans overlook the fact that NSLI that has ex pired since discharge because the veteran "forgot" to pay his pre miums may still be reinstated any time within eight years after ii was taken out. Recentlv lapsed insurance may be rein stated within six months after discharge or within three months after lapse, whichever is later, by filling out a form and sub mitting two monthly premiums ii me veteran is In the same physical condition as when the insurance laosed. Tf if h. lapsed for a longer period, It can still be reinstated within the eight-year period upon taking a F".r3ii.-Bi examination, and by paying the back premiums. sl,i must be convortorf in eight years of the time it was taken out, and Rosson empha sized the fact that converted in. surance is still carried by the .-v....rem, not oy a commercial concern as some veteran, lieve. Veterans ahm.u . touch with a service officer to get their insurance reinstated or iu nve u converted. STEWART DECLINES noiiywood.
