CIRCUIT COURT
Cos. Helen Shirley vs. X. Reed, di
al
her aunt that Barnee was en
route.
So when the plane arrived in
Naples, it was met by a big car,
populated in the back seat by
Aunt Filomina and an interpre
ter. . a
Out stepped Col. Breeskin in
all of his splendor. He was point
ed out Aunt Filomena, who
rushed him and planted a wet,
auntly smacker on his mouth.
She inspected him. and said,
through her interpreter, "My, I
didn't expect to meet the assist
ant President of the United
States."
It was that way all through
the trip the red carpet treat
ment for Barnee and his boys.
The versatile Barnee recipro
cated. Every time he came upon
a piano, he sat down and hon
ored his hosts with some Italian
folk songs he had practiced be
fore he left.
Kids Get Along
Of the international group of
cadets, Barnee said:
"It was wonderful to see these
kids gather from all those lands
in harmony in a single dormi
tory. They couldn't understand
each other. But they got along.
We had several youngsters who
could play the piano. That ought
to prove that music is the inter
national language."
All of those young men from
all over were "hep" on aeronau
tics. The get together in Italy
was for the purpose of pointing
up the importance of the flying
machine in the allied scheme of
things.
Groceteria President
Publishes Article
An article by W. A. Gates,
president of the Groceteria Super-Food
market, appeared in a
recent issue of Printer's Ink, the
weekly magazine of advertising,
management and sales.
The article, entitled "A Self
Service Retailer Speaks Out,"
including what he looks for in
packages, why he dislikes cou
pons, how to interest him in na
tional advertising, was provok
ed by an earlier article in Print
ers Ink that sought to analyze
the new retailing problems of
the national brand promoters.
For 55 of his 75 years Gates
has dealt with the public, first
in Chicago department stores,
then as a correspondent in a
large mail order house and fin
ally in his own business.
Replacement Trapper
How at Eagle Point
A traveling trapper employed
by the county, state and federal
governments is now stationed in
Eagle Point to take the place
of the regular trapper in this
area, Herby Tant, Eagle Point,
who was recently injured in an
automobile collision and will be
confined to his bed for six to
eight months.
The trapper, James E. Woods,
was last stationed at Grants
Pass. His job is to kill predatory
animals in the area in order to
stop livestock and game losses.

School Crossing Guard Survey Told
Chicago (U.R) A recent sur
vey by the Civil Service As
sembly shows that at least 122
cities with more than 50,000
population have school crossing
guard programs.
The study shows that as a re
sult of this system, larger cities
are able to get children across
streets safely to school cross
ings four times a day without
using police.
Eighty-eight departments have
had no traffic injuries or deaths
among school children since the
program was adopted. Other de
partments report minor injuries.
A few serious injuries to guards
only were due to circumstances
which could not be prevented,
such as a runaway truck.
Guards are carefully selected
on the basis of physical and
mental character, and in some
cities are fingerprinted.
The -postwar trend . has fa
vored the employment of women-guards,
particularly . young
mothers of school children. Old
er men from the ranks of re
tired policemen, firemen, school
janitors and handicapped veter
ans also serve to good advantage.
All Walks of Life
Interviewed for
Kinsey's Report
Bloomington, Ind. (U.R)
Data used in compiling Dr. Al
fred C. Kinsey'a book on "Sex
ual Behavior in the Human Fe
male" came from women in
every walk of life, according to
information supplied by the Un
iversity of Indiana.
Reply to Critics
In reply to critics who have
charged that his - interviews
could only be obtained from ex
hibitionists, it was pointed out
that Kinsey deliberately spread
his investigation through as
broad a social field as possible.
His subjects ranged from the il
literate to the holder of many
college degrees, from the scrub
woman to the society dowager,
from the circus acrobat to the
international banker.
Kinsey and his staff leaned
heavily on group interviews for
the bulk of their data because,
it was explained, valid informa
tion concerning the sex habits
of a specific class of persons can
not, be drawn from a single in
dividual (n that class.
Wee People' Interviewed
When asked if "nice people"
submit to his interviews, Kinsey
smiles and replies:
"If I were at liberty to show
you the names f some of the
nice people I have interviewed
leading ministers, government
officials and university presi
dents you wouldn't even ask
that question."
