To get all the $30 million dol
lars in new insurance for the
new Manhattan to Brooklyn tun
nel it was necessary to do busi
ness with some British insurance
companies. This recalls that at
the time of the San Francisco
earthquake and fire of 1906 the
London Assurance company of
London, England, paid off poli
cies to San Franciscans to the
amount of S8.291.000. The Royal
Insurance company of Liverpool
paid off policies amounting to
S7. 500. 000 on the same disaster.
Bathing Suits
How is your wife going to look
in a bathing suit? Here's hoping
she will remind people of Esther
Williams. How about you, sir?
How will, you look attired in
swimming trunks? Some years
ago a young matron of Califor
nia, much irritated by the many
nasty cracks voiced by men about
the appearance of plump women
in bathing suits, made the fol
lowing observation:
Men with knobby knees
And hairy, apish chests
Look ever so much better
Wearing coats and pants
and vests.
Horses k Women
Do vou know whv women
wear those peculiar looking hats?
It is to inspire comment, espe
cially by their husbands, sweet
hearts or escorts. Or so Gertrude
Bailey once claimed. Said she:
"A woman does not expect a man
to understand a hat, but she
hopes he will notice it. It is the
failure of a new hat to bring
forth any comment that drives a
woman to greater extremes in
millinery."
First Car
In what year did you acquire
your first automobile? A Cali
fornian tells me he has been an
automobile owner since 1915.
The first car he owned was a Mo-line-Knight.
He used this car for
10 years. He says when he first
own?d a car gasoline was retail
ing at B'i cents a gallon and no
tax.

Ever hear of a man eating
three meals a day in the same

Queries from clients. Q. Why
is it necessary to shoot a race
horse with a broken leg? I claim
horses with broken legs have
been cured and raced again.
Right? A. Not many horses with
broken legs have been able to
race again. However, one was.
On Labor day, 1934, at the River
Downs track, near Cincinnati, a
horse named Prince Pine broke
his leg during a race. The horse
was about to be shot when Mrs.
Peter Wehner. wife of a dentist,
begged the animal's life be
spared, saying she and her hus
band would take care of him.
The horse was given to the Weh
ners. The husband made a cast
of dental stone for the horse's
leg. After a long period Prince
Pine recovered the full strength
of his leg and raced again. The
Wehners also cured another
horse with a broken leg named
Prince Kiev.
