On The Side by e. v. Durimg
(Distributed by King Feature. Sradluti. Inc.)
How much shopping do you
do, sir? It is constantly claimed
wives do practically all the buy
ing for the family, that the aver
age man hardly ever does any
shopping. A man disputing this
claim says: "women do not buy
a man's liquor, cigars, tobacco,
underwear, pipes, razor blades,
shaving cream, golf clubs or
shoes." I cannot agree with this.
I believe many wives buy all the
articles mentioned for their hus
bands with the possible excep-

tions of pipes, golf clubs and
shoes. And when many husbands
go to buy shoes their wives go
with them so to be certain the
old boy takes time enough to
buy a pair that will fit him.
Passing By
Viola Dana. One of the in
numerable stars of stage and
screen born in the beautiful
Borough of Brooklyn. Before
she became a film luminary
Viola was starred in the stage
play, "The Poor Little Rich
Girl." That was the same season
Mary Plckford was being star
red by David Belasco in the play
titled, "The Good Little Devil."
What's In a Name
Have been examining a claim
there is a connection between a
person's first name and their
characteristics. This is based on
the belief the personality of an
infant inspires its parents to
give it a certain name. An ex
ample offered is that girls nam
ed Alice "have a powerful in
fluence over the opposite sex."
Well, there was a blonde named
Alice who was a waitress at a
coffee shop I once patronized.
She certainly was the belle of
the establishment. Men named
Alfred, according to this theory,
are "indecisive, are rabid sport
fans and distrust women includ
ing their wives." As for those
named Edgar they are "prudent,
calm and affectionate, very dis
criminative and critical of the
opposite sex." I am prudent,
calm, affectionate and discrimi
native I think. But not critical of
the opposite sex. Still, come to
think of it why do all those wo
men want to slap my face?
Asking
Queries from clients: Q.
Would you mind repeating that
recipe for Celtic coffee? A. To
a wine glass of strong coffee add
Irish whiskey and sugar, top it
with whipped cream. That's the
way I heard it from a resident
of Dublin. Never tried it though.

"What's the best way to get
along with a Libra born secre

Oct, 22) secretary contented is
monumental task. Libra fe

One-Way Grid System
Astoria U.R) A one way
traffic grid system, similar to
that in operation in Portland,
will be given a six-months try'
out In Astoria.
City councilmen have voted
to put the system in effect in
about two and a half months,

Slippery Bilker Of Public Object of Widespread Hunt

Libra Girl Friday: "Take a let

very temperamental. Takes a

also a danger that just as your
Libra secretary has been broken

with an artist, a book reviewer,
a violinist or even a crooner.
Gemini women make the best
secretaries.
Mules & Men
It would have been more in
keeping with scientific accuracy
if Samson had been described as
being bald. So states a man of
science who repeats the claim
that men with little hair are
generally more powerful than
those who have plenty. As a fel
low who has to get a haircut
once a week and can part his
hair with ease, I am inclined to
resent this claim. I am checking
on powerful fellows who had
plenty of hair. As a starter, I
will name "Pompadour Jim"
Corbott, the great heavyweight
ringman of the yesteryear Jack i
Dempsey had a nice crop of
hair during his ring career, and
still has. Gene Tunney is not
bald. "Babe" Ruth did not fea
ture a shiny dome. ,
Over There
The world's greatest two
fisted drinkers are the Dutch.
A Hollander thinks nothing of
drinking as many as eight gins
before dinner. After dinner he
turns to whisky and brandy.
Yet the sight of a drunk on the
streets of any Holland city is a
rarity. The Dutch seem to really
know how to handle their
liquor.

working order? Do you think
you arc in shape to pass an en

away with a man posing as a
U. S. Marshal.
Investigation Launch.d
Authorities indicated they had
almost no idea where he might
be, but they launched into a
meticulous investigation.
Every guard and every police
man on duty in the Jail were
questioned. ,
The guard who blandly let
Knetzer and his "U. S. Marshal"
escort slip out the back door of
the jail was suspended and
charges of negligence and dis
obedience were placed against
him.
Visitors Questioned
All of Knctzer's visitors In
the past weeks were questioned.
Some wfcre known to have been
placed under police and FBI sur

The escape was such an under
cover affair that even Knelzer's
attorney was taken by surprise.
The lawyer, William N. Gif

then added: "But I've been flab
bergasted before in this case."
U.S. District Attorney Howard
L. Doyle said that at about 3:30
a.m. Tuesday a stocky, middle
aged man came to the jail and
told night jailer Melvin Palmer
that he was "George Hulem."

Identification Produced
He produced papers to ident

Knetzer and would return him
later in tne aay.
Palmer woke Knetzer who
dressed quickly. Upon meeting
the "marshal" he said simply
"all right" and Palmer let the

They have not been seen since.
