He explained: "First there will be a sort of owner's manual for maintenance and service. Sec ondly, we will help repair dam age and finally we will provide a wrecking service for marriages which have broken up."

In the past ten years in the United States 8,000,000 people marry again within five years. The percentage of happy mar riages is higher for second mar riages than first marriages. Usu ally a bachelorette can hardly wait to get that wedding ring on her finger. As a husband picker she is often a wishful thinker, disreagrding even the most ob vious faults of the man of her choice. A divorcee is inclined to take her time. Also a woman who becomes a wife twice is more tolerant in her second venture. She gives heed to Mad ame De Stael's immortal advice to "Take the world as it is, and men as they are." Exchange At last reports on foreign ex change you could get about 480 francs to a dollar. The last time I saw Paris, which was in 1939, the rate was thirty francs to the dollar. At that time for ten francs you could get coffee and cognac at Fouquet's sidewalk cafe on the Champs Elysees. You could buy a good Havana cigar for eighteen francs and get a haircut for six francs. For ninety francs you could get a good dinner for two with wine. I am going to get a Paris newspaper and check on what prices in francs are now. Pleas Not In discussing Ty Cobb's crit icism of the present day ball players a sportscribe comments that the old-timers of Ty's day were "rarely handicapped by military service." Quite a few of Cobb's contemporaries were in the service in World War I as was Ty himself. To name just a few who went to war and came back to continue their diamond careers: Grover Cleveland Alex ander, "Gabby" Street, Leon Cadore, Christy Mathewson, and Hank Gowdy, "Harvard Eddie" Grant was over there too but he never came back. He was killed in- action. Christy Mathewson's death was hastened by the effects of a poison gas attack at the front. At the Fair Does the song "Meet Me in St. Louis, Louis" bring you any fond recollections? I mean, were you at the fair there? If so, did you hear John McCormack sing at that time? He was one of the singers in the Irish Village. So was Lily Foley, the girl who be came Mrs. John McCormack. Lily was a Dublin girl, John was from Athlone "where the river Shannon flows." John proposed to Lily in St. Louis. They were married two years later. Their marriage lasted thirty-nine years. Grim Opening Now on Broadway is a play titled "The Shrike" which starts off with its leading male charac ter having taken 156 sleeping pills in an effort to end his ex istence. This is the most somber opening of a hit play since Clyde Fitch's "The Climbers" in which Amelia Bingham starred. That opened with a funeral scene. "The Shrike' 'is a psychological melodrama. I like my melo dramas like "Bulldog Drum mond," "Broadway," "The Rack et," "The Whip" and "Detective Story." Asking Queries from clients: Q. So you're an expert on theatrical history. Name six married co starring teams who were billed as "Mr. and Mrs." A. Your query has me slightly baffled. I can only think of four: Mr. and Mrs. McKee Rankin, Mr. and Mrs. Sidney Drew, Mr. and Mrs. Car ter De Haven and Mr. and Mrs. Vernon Castle. Q. What do you think of Susanna as a name? I like it. My wife doesn't! A. I like Sunanna, too. Shakespeare had a daughter named Susanna. However, if your wife doesn't like it, forget it. Let the mothers have the last word on the names of daughters and fathers on sons. Names David Belasco changed the name of Gladys Smith to Mary Pickford. William Mack sug gested Ruby Stevens use the professional name of Barbara Stanwyck. Georgie Jessel ad vised Frances Gumm to change her name to Judy Garland. Now I wish somebody would persuade that brilliant young actress Elaine Stritch to get herself an other professional name. Elaine's surname is handicapping her. Get U Right "Mary Baker Eddy was in no Keeps food containers wholesome MUM I STWCTa'.Of UMIUl Ml MM way inspired by Phineas Quim by" writes a Bostonian. "Mrs. Eddy's book 'Science and Health' was based entirely on her own ideas. You are, however, quite right in reporting that 'Science and Health' is second to the Bible as an all time best seller." Sidelights Note it stated one John Markle had a New York City apartment of forty-one rooms and fifteen baths. That was quite an apart ment Almost as large as Doro thy Kilgallen's . . . Lillian Russell did considerable wagering on the thoroughbreds, but not as much as Fannie Brice. At one time Fannie had a direct wire from her dressing room at the theater to Belmont Park. If you don't believe me ask Max Hirsch, the noted trainer. He used to give Fannie tips. Pasting By Claire Luce. Extremely versa tile actress. Made her Broadway bow as a dancer in one of Texas Guinan's night clubs. Stage de but was in a musical titled, "Lit tie Jessie James." She was Fred Astaire's leading lady in "The Gay Divorcee." Has also played highly dramatic parts, as for example, Curley's wife, in "Mice and Men." MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE FIVE JUST FOR FUN Herrin, 111 (U.R) Ed Child ers, hitch-hiking to sign up for unemployment c o m p e n sation here, was given a profitable but hair-raising ride by two youths. When they found his wallet, the two put away a pistol, drove Childers to Herrin and gave him a dollar, saying, "we were only kidding." Hew Method Hikes Yield of Water From 'Sick' Wells Seattle (U.R) A new method of treating "sick" wells has been developed which has increased their water yield by as much as 300 per cent, delegates to the spring meeting of the American Society of Mechanical engineers were told Wednesday. Explosives Involved The treatment involves the use of "vibratory explosives," a process which was explained by Harvey Mylander, a water sup ply analyst of South Pasadena, Calif. The wells are brought to life by exploding sm 11 charges spaced in the wall casing. The charges are detonated at calcu lated time intervals, thus pro ducing a series of continuous shock waves powerful enough to dislodge obstructions which clog the well perforations. Method Safe To Use . The vibratory method, My lander said, provides thorough cleaning and is safe to use on old casing and well screens. Fur thermore, he said, benefits ob tained last longer than those produced by conventional me chanical and chemical methods. He said that after the explo sives are detonated, the well is pumped free of residue, an operation which seldom requires more than three hours. The caribou is considered a stone age animal because draw ings of it are among the earliest graphic records of man.
