Sheridan.
It li frequently claimed small
families are the rule in tne Dor-
oueh oi Manhattan. That's not
right. Manhattan has as high
ncrcentaee of large families
any section of the country. This
comment inspired by hearing a
resident of the East Eighties,
Manhattan, has just given birth
to twins. This lady, still in her
thirties, now has seven children.
She is well fixed financially, but
nevertheless does not turn the
handling of her children over to
nurses. She takes entire charge
of her offspring.
Working Girls
Are you an executive whose
duties include the engaging of
female helD? When you hire a
young woman to be a typist,
bookkeeper, file clerk or general
office assistant what questions
do you ask her? How do you
judge her? There is a New York
advertising executive who is
often complimented on the effi
ciency of the females on his staff.
He was asked to what he at
tributed his success in securing
such competent female help. He
said: "First 1 iook at the appli
cant's face. If that appeals to me
1 look at her legs. Then it she nas
well.formcd legs. I hire- her. I
do not ask any questions as to
her husiness ability. Women with
regular features and good legs
are usually ellicicni.
Passing By
Hnhert E. Sherwood. Play
-wrinht, essayist and pinochle
enthusiast. His first play was
"The Road to Rome." Bob says
he wrote it because he "needed
the money." This brings to mind
that Damon Runyan wrote his
first short story to acquire the
money to pay some medical bills.
Come to think of it I once wrote
a short, short story and sold it to
Colliers. Do you know why? The
landlady was nagging me for my
room rent. That, of course, was
before I had my racing system
perfected.
Horges fc Women
Note a reference to a new fem
inine style called "the Delilah
dress." This garment is alleged
to make the wearer feel like
what is frequently called "a
femme fatale' That this type of
attire builds up a woman's
glamor cannot be questioned.
The difficulty is that when a mar
ried woman begins feeling like a
"femme fatale," or a vampire,
she is Inclined to give her at
traction appeal a try-out. This
generally results in a hurmluss
flirtation, but at times things get
out of control. Anyway, mister,
if your wife acquire a "Delilah
dress" caution her to be as care
ful as possible.
Champion
Have recently been in receipt
of some communications from
fellows who fancy themselves as
big breakfast eaters and in some
cases claim to be champions in
that respect. Therefore, 1 wish to
Inform these clients that the rec
ord for consuming a large break
fast was made in Virginia City,
Nev., in 1871, by a miner named
Patrick Murphy and to my
knowledge has never been brok
en. History tells us that one spring
morning in 1871, Mr. Murphy en
tered a Virginia City restaurant
and said: "Landlord, I would like
a bit of breakfast; bring me a
porterhouse steak and onions, a
side of liver and bacon, six fried
eggs, a German pancake, some
fried potatoes, a pot of coffee,
half a dozen doughnuts and a
few waffles."
Molhers-in-Law
Are you fond of your mother-in-law?
Or if you have a married
son are you fond of his wife? A
New Jersey mother-in-law says
she and her daughter-in-law have
been living together in complete
harmony for the past 27 years.
For 18 this subscriber lived with
her son and his wife. After her
son's death she and her daughter-in-law
continued to live together
though financially Independent
of each other. "Is this a record
(or affection betwern mother-in-law
and diuighter-in-liiw?" she
asks. Don't know about that, but
it certainly is unusual. It brings
to mind the poetic tribute to a
daughter-in-law by Jc-Hn lngelow.
namely:
A sweeter woman ne'er drew
breath
Than my son's wife, Elizabeth.
Get It Right
Referring to the Ketchel-John-son
bout at Colmn. Oil., 40 years
agn, I said thnt Kctehell knocked
Johnson down, the latter imme
diately arose and knocked his
opponent out. That was wrong.
Johnson took a count of eight be
fore getting up. Stogies carefully
wrapped have been sent to the
well-informed subscribers mak

Portland, Ore., Jan. 24 (U.R

pair and shipping industries. He

propriation, vet to come, for $25,
000,000 for the rehabilitation of
134 vessels of the mothball fleet.

ment among Klamath Falls city

Said Here To Stay
Portland. Ore.. Jan. 24 (U.Rl
Cyrus Chlng, head of the federal
conciliation service, today said
labor's pension problems were
here to stay.
"It is important," he said, "that
leaders of Industry recognize
the problem. ... If they would
recognize the problem and do
something about it, it would be
more to the advantage of indus
try. As long ns the problem is
there, we shall hear about it."
Chlng said lie saw no reason
for government intervention in
the coal strike because he did not
believe there was a general emer
gency because of It. ,
