The New York City water consumption record is 148 gal lons per person daily. This is about five times the amount of water consumed daily by the av erage Londoner. Some British commentators are using this fact as a basis for chiding New York ers for a careless use of water. These gentlemen should keep in mind that Londoners do not have anything like the facilities for using water New Yorkers have. There are probably twenty bath tubs in New York for every one in London. Also, about 100 New Yorkers use shower baths com pared to one Londoner. Besides, the New Yorkers drink a lot of water. The average Londoner is more inclined to quench his thirst with ale. Predicting Sex A German physician, Dr. Wil helm Witzel, claims he can fore tell the sex of an expected child by looking in the eyes of a mother-to-be. Doctor Witzel says the eyes of an expectant mother change and the changes vary ac cording to the sex of the baby. This claim is being checked by United States army medical offi cers in Germany. The doctor has been permitted to gaze into the eyes of thirty-five expectant mothers and has in each case stated what he predicts the sex of the coming child will be. A report on the results is due soon. Please Note An expert who says his state ment is based on United States weather bureau data reports that the windiest city in this country is New York. The hot test city is Kansas City, Mo., the coldest, Minneapolis. Also, says he, Santa Fe, N. M., has the most sunshine of any town in the U. S. A., and Miami, Fla., the most thunderstorms. Aiking Queries from clients. Q. In an account of Mary Garden's return to Scotland I see it stated that she is "American - born." I thought she was born in Aber deen, Scotland. A. Mary was born in Aberdeen but was brought to this country by her parents when six years old. She first lived in Chicopee, Mass., then Hartford, Conn. After that in Chicago where she made her debut as a singer at the age of 16 in Gilbert & Sullivan's "Trial By Jury." Q. Are you familiar with a poem referring to the cold, flat "duty" kisses the aver age husband gives his wife when leaving for the office? A. You seem a trifle bitter about this matter. Only poem I know of dealing with it is one by Inge borg Hoerner: Of all life's torment Lord, spare me this The quiet sting Of a dutiful kiss. Among the Married When Myrna Loy informed her current husband, Gene Markey, that she had decided on a di vorce she did so over the tele phone, from Hollywood to Lon don, The conversation lasted thirty minutes. I am a great ad mirer of Miss Loy's acting. I would like to see her happily married. She was born under the sign of Leo. In a forthcoming issue I shall quote what the star gazers have to say about the handling of a Leo woman. I shall also report what our Horses At Women experts say as to what makes a woman of Myrna's gen eral characteristics happy. I trust these helpful hints will prove beneficial to Miss Loy's next husband. Horses and Women I have continually claimed that one of the major causes of unhappy marriages and subse quent divorce is the practice of so many people saying to single young women, between the ages of 24 and 28: "What, not mar ried yet?" Innumerable young women trying to wait for the right man to come along get so weary of having this question tossed at them that in despera tion they will marry almost any body for the sake of being free from this highly irritating query. Phone 2-6419 O. E. Job, 2370 Houiton road, Nuriet' Training school In San Illlllllllllllllllllllllll, IIIIIIMIIIIIII That is, these harassed young women accept practically any man who proposes. Naturally the marriage is usually a failure. Why not let the bachclorettes alone? Don't rush them into a matrimonial failure by the high ly personal query aforemen tioned. Longevity The people of Nebraska live longer on the average than those of any other state. So boasts an Omaha subscriber. What he says is true. However, I challenge this subscriber or any other Ne braskan to name a native of their state who can top the rec ord of John R. Voorhis, of New York city. Mr. Voorhis was born at 738 Greenwich street, New York city, and lived there all his life. He died at the age of 101. Now let this Omaha client name a Nebraskan who lived 101 years In the same house. If he can do so he does not have to send me a stogie. Shady Cove -Trail Shady Cove-Trail.

Vj in Homewores" COMPANY PHONE 2-5201 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE THIRTEEN Babson Discusses By Roger W. Babson Babson Park, Fla., Feb. 3 Many letters have come to me asking that I suggest an invest- in e n t which combines: (1) proper diversi fication; (2) an inflation hedge based upon low cost compared with liquidat ing value; (3) a fair interest yield, and (4) freedom from labor troubles. av.i this last is very important. After consider able thought, I recommend stocks of good long established fire insurance companies, and herewith are my reasons. Any of these stocks can be purchased through your local bank. 1. Insurance companies are actually well diversified and bal anced "investment trusts" with a second source of earnings from the insurance business. This sec ond source will often produce as much income as the stocks and bonds which the company owns. Furthermore, the purchasers of this form of investment trust should receive more income and certainly more security than by the direct purchase of most securities. For instance, the Home Insurance company, the stock of which sells at S35 a share, has invested assets of $60 a share. 2. Fire insurance stocks arc selling at a low ratio to liquidat ing value. To take the ease of the Home Insurance company again as an example, it is sell ing at about 85 per cent of its current liquidating value. Since 1935 the average annual range for all fire insurance compan ies has been less than the liquid ating value. As most fire insur ance companies have a portfolio of good common stocks, they should be a fair Inflation hedge. Ratio of Dividends Below Normal Average 3. Generally dividends on fire insurance stocks gradually in crease. The ratio of dividends paid to investment income re ceived is below the normal aver age for other classes of stocks. This shows conservative manage ment. The leveling off of prem iums will stop the drain on sur plus and permit greater divi d c n d s. Increasing dividends should cause increasing market prices. 4. There are cycles in the in surance business. The cycle now is that of a period of good earn ings, which give a yield between 4 per cent and 5 per cent al though a large part of the as sets are in government bonds. Perhaps never before in history has property been so nearly in sured to full value. The rates are not ordinarily reduced until five-year-average results demonstrate them to be too high. When rates again begin to be reduced andor fire losses increase, dividends and prices of fire insurance slocks may again decline for a period. Labor Troubles Direct Attention To Advantage 5. A period of labor troubles such as we are witnessing today should direct attention to the advantage of insurance company slocks. The cost of labor for the insurance industry is around 10 per cent of the volume of busi ness. This compares with a labor cost of from 40 per cent to 50 per cent in most industries. This gives a great advantage to fire insurance companies. Any increased labor costs go into the expenses and arc taken into consideration in the fixing of rates as well as in the pay ment of taxes. If drastic labor trouble should occur, this type of company, having a small in vestment in plant, can be moved to a new locality. But the per centage of labor cost is so small, this is seldom necessary. Ultra-Conservative Should Buy Stock In Ten Companies I use the Home as an illustra tion because it is the largest in the United States in total admit ted assets and in premiums writ ten, although only the fourth in policyholders surplus. I happen to be a director and have great confidence in its president, Har old V. Smith. Also, there are oth er good companies such as Great American, American of Newark, Firemen's of Newark, Aetna, Na tional Fire, Continental, Fidell-ly-Phenix, Insurance Company of North America, Springfield Fire & Marine, If you are ultra-conservative, buy some stock in all ten com panies. Then you should have the best possible combination of safety and income. Another sug gestion is that you look at your insurance policies.
