Many men are giving them
selves a rejuvenatoin treatment
without knowing. An expert says
shaving every day aids a man
to maintain a youthful appear
ance, because the operation ex
ercises the face muscles. That
Is one of the reasons why men
don't have to worry as much
about a double chin as women.
As for the ladies, it is repeated
ly claimed chewing gum for a
period each day is protection
against developing a double
chin.
Advertising Art
The most celebrated picture
in the field of advertising art
is that one titled 'His Master's
Voice," painted by Francis Baur
raud and featuring his dog "Nip
per ."'listening to a phonograph.
This picture has appeared in
$50,000,000 worth of advertising.
Still there are other advertising
pictures that stick in the mem
ory. Take that one exploiting
Scott's Emulsion, the fisherman
with the huge fish on his back.
Consider the picture advertis
ing a perfuaie which shows a
violinist planting a passionate
kiss on a lovely lady's lips. Then
there was that one of Phoebe
Snow "About To Go On A Trip
To Buffalo." Also that picture of
a young fellow featuring a huge
grin which advertises Steeple
chase Park, Coney Island. That
was on the billboards when I
was a kid.
Passing By -Harold
Arlen, songwriter from
Buffalo. Responsible for many
hits, .best of which is "Stormy
Weather." Harold began his pro
fessional career as a pianist on
Great Lakes steamers . . . Jean
Simmons. Petulant cinema lum
inary. Note her credited with
having popularized that curious
hair style known as the "poodle
cut," I believe Mary Martin
started that . . . "Pop" War
ner, great football coach of the
yesteryear. "Pop" still says the
best player he ever coached was
Ernie Nevers and not Jim
Thorpe. Says Ernie "was more
consistent and dependable" than
Jim. I think George Gipp of
Notre Dame was a better football
player than 'either of them.
Among the Married
The sixth year of marriage is
the most difficult to survive. Af
ter that married life runs more
smoothly. It is not until the sev
enth year that most marriages
begin to really click. The fif
teenth year, according to stu
dents of life among the married,
is a dangerous one for women.
At that time the wives are inclin
ed to become a little flighty.
They develop a strong interest
in handsome male celebrities.
They also have difficulty in mak
ing their eyes behave when a
good looking' sfc-anger gazes at
them. The dangerous age for hus
bands is in the early fifties. In
fact, one psychiatrist, claims the
only way to be absolutely cer
tain a husband in his fifties is
behaving himself as he should Is
to lock him up.
Briafly
An astonishing number1 of peo
ple who consider themselves well
informed are unable to state off
hand the date of VE day which
ended World War II. How about
you, sir? ... I can understand
why the British have a fondness
for fish and chips, but why they
are so enthusiastic about jellied
eels baffles me.
Asides
A ring for divorcees is far
from a new idea. Thirty years
ago there was originated such
a ring, the design being a brok
en cupid's arrow. It was worn
on the same finger as the wed
ding ring ... In England the
so-called "Wolf Whistle" is il
legal. Upon complaint of women
whistled at, the offender can be
arrested and charged, with "us
ing improper gesture to the an
noyance of others." In this coun
try most women are not annoyed
by wolf whistles. In fact they
consider it a kind of compliment.
Gratitude
A feminine subscriber who
feels she owes a debt of gratitude
to the inventor of the vacuum
cleaner asks his name. The first
vacuum cleaner, a hand - pump
ed gadget, was invented by Ives
M. McGaffey in 1869. First elec
trically operated vacuum clean
er was invented by John S. Thur
man in 1899. The modern type
cleaner, with motor induced suc
tion and a twirling brush, was
invented by John S. Templin in
1910. So -home manager owe a
debt of gratitude to all three of
these men and their pictures

hoard for an opinion, iieuner
quoted a provision in the Ore
gon Constitution which says "the
state shall not subscribe to or
be interested in the stock of any
comrany, association, or corpo
ration." Provision Appliet
Neuner said that provision ap
plied as much to the State Board
of Higher Education as vto the
state itself because the board is
a mere agency of the state and
not a separate legal entity.
The attorney general also re
plied to a question from the
board as to whether it may hold
the stock donations for as long
as it deems prduent for as long
"It is our opinion that the
board should dispose of any such
stock which it now possesses, re
gardless of whether title to said
stock is held in trust or owned
outright by the State of Oregon."
Income, Applied
In its request for an opinion
from Neuner, the board had said
it had received the income from
donated stocks and, as directed
by the donor, paid or applied the
income for student scholarships
and prizes, and hospitalization
of needy children at Doernbech
er Memorial hospital of the Uni
versity of Oregon Medical school.
