(Above seems appropriate to

not especially romantic, but. of

"Keep this book clean." That's
what it says on printed forms
pasted in books circulated by the
New York public library. I am
in accord with the suggestion
that public library books be well
taken care of. But why not say:
"Please keep this book clean"?
Just to word it "Keep this book
clean" smacks of impertinence
and arrogance. It is lacking in
the courtesy taxpayers are en
titled to expect in their relations
and dealings with public em
ployees. Sidelights
A contemporary styles Mary
Martin as "No. 1 Woman of the

rating I dispute. The No. 1 fem

undoubtedly Ethel Merman . . .
The Statler in Washington and
the Shamrock in Houston are the
only two hotels built in the U.
S. A. in the past-10 years. ThBt's

can you name another hotel built
in this country in that period
and so take Paul for a stogie?

"Have some friends named
Forrest," writes a Pittsburgher.
"If and when they have a female
child and name her Dorris will
she be eligible for the My Name
Is a Poem club?" The question
was put to MNIAPC President
Hugh Blue, who said: "Anybody
who believes Dorris rhymes with
Forrest should buy a rhyming
dictionary. I might add that I
do not think there is in existence
a feminine name that rhymes
with Forrest. If I smoked stogies
I might even wager a stogie
on it."

Queries from clients. Q. What
is the origin of the expression

details of the gentleman's career.

My dearest friend and I both

one of those pinup boy calendars
which feature well streamlined

the figures of these physical mar

are taking the hint. Both are
