Arlitophanei (Lyelitrata)
A Brooklyn bachelorette who
frankly confesses she is eagerly,
even desperately, trying to ac
quire a husband, says she would
prefer to marry a dentist. "Do
you know any young and hand
some bachelor dentists?" she
asks. I know a lot of dentists,
some not such bad looking fel
lows, but they are all married.
It seems dentists are preferred
matrimonial material. Why that'
is I cannot definitely state at this
writing. I feel however, that we
should have some information
on this matter in our Mules &
Men files. I will investigate it.
For a starter I will ask Irene
Dunne about it. She is married
to a dentist.
Asking
Queries from clients. Q. I
claim the greatest of all Ameri
can writers of short stories, O.
Henry, was once a newspaper
columnist. Right? A. You are
right about O. Henry having
been a newspaper columnist. He
conducted a column for the
Houston, Tex., Daily Post. How
ever, I do not agree with your
view that he was "the greatest
of American short story writ
ers." I believe Edgar Allen Poe
and Bret Harte were both much
greater than O. Henry in that
field.
Stogie Department
The first intercollegiate bas
ketball game was played at New
Haven, Conn., December 10,
1896, between Wesleyan and
Yale. Score Yale 34, Wesleyan
4. At that time there were seven
men on a basketball team in
stead of five, as now. You may
seek to win a stogie from me on
this statement. You may also be
certain of winning when you
find a sports record book that
differs. But I'm warning you.
Don't wager any stogies that I
am wrong on this. You'll lose.
Thai Campaign
"Take that bitter campaign of
yours against women using first
names intended for men," writes
a young woman of Manhattan.
"No doubt it also includes cam
paigning against men who use
first names Intended for women.
Therefore, I suggest you launch
a complaint at .that talkative
New York restaurateur known
as "Toots" Shor. "Toots" is defi
nitely a feminine nickname. In
proof I offer the comic strip of
Toots and Casper. I suggest Mr.
Shor change his name to Cas
per." Get It Right
"Mary Pickford and her hus
band, Douglas Fairbanks, shared
with Chaplin the primary affec
tions of theater goers of 40 years
ago." That's what I noted stated
by a contemporary reviewing
the past 50 years of life in the
U.S.A. The old boy is a bit off
the beam. Mary Pickford did
start in the film 40 years ago,
but Charlie Chaplain did not ap
pear on the screen until 1913 and
did not become well known until
1914. Douglas Fairbanks' first
film, "The Lamb," was not
shown until late in 1915.
Auto Navigators
Do you fancy yourself as a
transcontinental auto trip navi
gator? Or as a student of United
States geography? If so, here's a
problem for you. There is sbme
talk of all states charging tolls
for autoists crossing their border
lines. If that legislation went
through, what auto route would
you take from New York to Los
Angeles so as to cross the least
number of state borders? Also
can you state the location of a
highway where two states' bor
ders would be crossed in 25
miles?
Over There
In England, it is the law that
all dogs must have tags on their
collars on which is printed their
owner's name and address. The
owner failing to observe this law
is subject to a heavy fine. In
some cases as high as the equiva
lent of $150. A very good law.
Evidently the use of a tag or a
collar inscription to identify the
owner of a dog is an old British
custom. Alexander Pope, once
presented to Frederick, Prince
of Wales, with a collar for his
dog. Inscribed on the collar was
an original poem by Pope, as fol
lows: I am His Highness' dog at
Kew,
Pray tell me, sir, whose dog
are you?"
Almost Confidential
Note it stated the feminine
article of attire referred to as
"falsies" and "gay deceivers"
was "Invented" in 1907. That
can't be right. Dean Swift men
tioned this artificial aid to figure
beauty in a poem written over
100 years ago. . . . What is your
answer for this query: When did
the 20th century start, on Janu
ary 1, 1900 or on January 1,
1901? . . . One of the cleverest
and most amusing pictures I
have seen in some time is the
British film titled, "The Facts of
Life." When it comes to produc
