DAVIDSON For years and years references to a woman as being "a natural blonde" or "a natural red-head" have been common. Nothing was evet said about a brunet in this connection. Recently I have not ed several references to "a na tural brunet." Seems the number of blondes and red-heads who are switching to dark hair is in creasing so greatly that the real McCoy brunets feel they should defend themselves. Why do so many blondes and red-heads want to be brunets? On that our "Horses and Women" experts have been trying to check with no success. Truck and Trash Have you a garret? Anything stored there? Have you any rela tives who have a garret? Any way, there is a book titled "Trea sures in Truck and Trash" by Morgan Towne. This book re veals how cash may be acquired for old magazines, newspapers, dishes, toys, furniture, etc., that might lie forgotten in a garret. Tells where you can sell the stuff, what you might, get for it, etc. I believe a fellow after studying this book could travel around the country visiting old houses and pick up things at bar gain prices which he might sell at quite a profit. Horses and Women An extremely important fac tor in facial appearance is the nose. Many a woman would be a raving beauty were it not for the shape of her nose. Quite a few beautiful women, some of them celebrities, were not good look, ing until their noses were al' tered by plastic surgery. The general belief is that nose and face lifting operations by plastic surgery are only within reach of the wealthy. That is not so. While expensive, they are not prohibitive for persons in mod erate circumstances.

What card is called the "Curse of Scot land." A. The nine of diamonds. However, there is a wide variety of opinion as to why it is so styled. Q. Was Adeline Gcnee, who starred in the musical show "The Soul Kiss," an opera sing er or a ballet dancer? A. Her spe cialty was the ballet. She had been a prima ballerina in Den mark. Dogs Again The number of Manhattan ho tels that welcomes dogs is rapid ly decreasing. But they are still welcome at the Plaza which is one of the finest hotels in the world. That has been the policy of the Plaza since it opened in 1907. Incidentally, the Plaza cost $17,000,000 to build when the buying power of the dollar was three times what it is today. The first man to register at the Plaza was Alfred G. Vanderbilt, second was George Jay Gould, third was none other than John W. "Bet a Million" Gates, and they all had their dogs with them. Our amia ble springer, Timmy, has fre quently stayed at the Plaza. He is very popular there. Every time we pass that hotel he stops, looks up at me as much as to say: "How about going in and seeing the folks?" A remarkable animal.

Saalfeld said payments will continue now at the rate of about 1500 a day or 7500 a week because the division has caught up with the backlog of checks written by. the secretary of state's office. And that office can write the checks at the rate of only about 1500 a day because each check must be ruaV through the protectograph. Saalfeld said an unknown number of veterans received the wrong bonus checks. He said: "It's one of those things that just happen when you're run ning thousands of bonus checks through a machine. We urge every veteran who received the payment of someone else to re turn the check to the bonus divi sion in Salem at once. We will then see that the veteran gets his correct check."

His first produc tion was "The Candy Shop," a musical that was a smash hit in 1909. Billy Rock and Maude Ful ton were the stars. John was also a song writer. He wrote "Poor Butterfly." A great ditty, but like "Dardanclla," "The Merry Widow Waltz" and "The Music Goes Round and Round." it was sung so much that finally a long suffering public thought there should be a law against play ing it. Phoenix Group Of $300 in Police Chief Salary Phoenix About 75 people ap peared last night at a public hearing in the Phoenix Commu nity club hall concerning the city budget election which is being held today in the city hall until 8 o'clock this evening. The principal objection raised by those attending to the pro posed budget, which is $10,- 370.91 over the six per cent in crease limitation, was the fact that the budget calls for the po lice chief's salary to be lipped by $300 a year to $3,900. After discussion lasting sev eral hours on this point, the council and citizen's budget com mittee agreed with the group opposing the salary increa.se to have a representative meet with the council at the next meeting and help in the selection of a new police chief, "if the council BOY'S BODY FOUND The Dalles (U.R) The body of one of two 14-year-old Moro, Ore., youths feared to have drowned in the John Day river, was recovered Monday.
