That cook book given to pros
pective brides at the San Fran
cisco Marriage License Bureau
is titled "Cupid's Book." In addi
tion to being a cook book, it in
cludes a variety of helpful hints
on home management. Recently
when discussing the cook books
given the prospective brides at
the San Francisco and Seattle
Marriage License Bureaus I sug
gested the bridegroom be pre
sented Willi some kind of book.
I thought one titled "Forty Ways
to Amuse a Wife" might be ap
propriate. This suggestion has
not met with the approval of the
feminine subscribers. They think
the future husband should be
presented with a more practical
volumn. A Detroit matron sug
gests one titled "How to Be a
Handy Man Around the House."
A Boston lady suggests a vol
ume titled "How to Give Your
Wife Less Trouble." This book,
she says, would give instructions
to a husband on how to leave
the bathroom in reasonably neat
shape after taking a bath, how
to get his clothes ready- for the
laundry and the tailor, how to
put his soiled garments in the
hamper, etc.. etc.
The first half of the twentieth
century will not be over until
December 31, 1950. So why do
all those experts on various sub
jects and activities keep picking
the "bests" of "the first half of
the twentieth century." Perhaps
some new wonders will come on
the scene this year. Such as Noor,
the horse that beat Citation
twice.

Gloria Swanson. Achieved her
first hit as a cinema actress over
thirty years ago when she was
ce-siarred in a Mack Sennett
Comedy with a great Dane dog
named Teddy. Reached the peak
of her career in 1925 when her
salary was $20,000 a week.
Gloria is still doing all right in
the turns, radio and on television
and looks wonderful. She is truly
a remarkable personality.
Asking.
Queries from clients. Q. My
first name is Roman. It is also
the first name of a Pacific Coast
League umpire, a well-known
lion tamer and a commander in
the United States navy. What do
you think of Roman as a first
name? A. Frankly speaking, mis
ter, I don't think much of Ro
man as a first name, lake my
first name, Edgar. Many success
ful men have it, as for examples,
Edgar Hoover and Edgar Bergen.
But I still don't like it. Call me
Eddie. Q. When I was a young
fellow 1 went wild over Marie
Doro. I wonder why? A. What
do you mean, you wonder why
Wasn't Marie one of the cutest
little tricks on the Broadway
stage? She was good in the mov

Disabled Veterans,
Widows Entitled
To Tax Exemptions
Salem, Ore., Mar. 9 (U.R)
Disabled veterans and the wid
ows of veterans entitled to a
$1,000 property tax exemption
must apply at their county as
sessor's office by April 1 to re
ceive the exemption for the com
ing fiscal year, the Oregon de
partment of veterans' affairs re
minded today.
The exemption is available to
any Oregon residents who meets
any of the following conditions:
1 He is an honorably dis
charged Union veteran of the
Mexican war, Civil war or Indi
an wars.
2 He is an honorably dis
charged veteran of any other
American war and is certified
by the veterans' administration
having a disability of 40 per
cent or more, regardless of the
amount of compensation or pen
he receives.
3 He is an honorably dis
charged war veteran with a dis
ability of 40 per cent or more
which lias been certified by a li
censed Oregon physician but not
by the VA, provided he has not
received more than $2,000 in
the past calendar year as pen
sion or retirement pay from the
government for his military
service.
4 She is the unremarried
widow of an honorably dis
charged war veteran.
This benefit must be applied
for annually, the state veterans'
deDartment said.. The exemption
applies to the taxable value of
the real or personal property
which the applicant owns or
holds under a recorded purchase
contract.
Countv assessors have the nec
essary claim forms. Veterans
claiming on the basis of dis
ability must submit a certified
statement from either the VA or
ies. too. Besides, she is an ex
tremely nice person. You went
wild over her because had had
good taste.
Savi Maauire.
"Another thing you can bring
to the attention of those Scotch
A I jrieans who are so conde
scending to the Irish," writes a
Bostonian named Maquire, is
that the first mon of the Christo
pher Columbus expedition to
land on the American shore was
an Irishman named Patrick Ma-
guire. I would also like to call
attention to. the fact that over
thirty of the generals serving
under Uen, George wasningion
in the Revolutionary War were
of Irish birth or descent.
Asides.
The first wedding in America
took place in Jamestown, Va., in
1609 when Ann Burras became
Mrs. John Leyden. But that's all
I know about it. Whether or not
Mr. and Mrs. Leyden lived hap
pily ever after I cannot say . . .
A Seattle subscriber, discussing
songs about girls named Julia,
says that in the yesteryear there
was one titled Julia, You Are
Peculiar."
Pleas Not.
According to a New York old
timer there were no punch drunk
pugilists in the days of bar fist
fighting. He says that started
when fighters began to use
gloves. He claims fighters' hands
were taped under the gloves in
a way that made the blows
"murderous." He says being hit
with these taped hands covered
with gloves was something like
being hit with a policeman's
night stick.
