Durling (Distributee by King Features Syndicate, Inc.) wnat war veteran ox your acquaintance has the most dee- orations? Do you know any hav ing the French "Medaille Milli taire?" Possessor of that has special privileges in France. Said Mr. Churchill, "Now If I am ever arrested for being drunk and disorderly in Paris the police cannot take me to jail.

"Dead weight" Is that carried by the horse in excess of jockey's weight If a 106-pound rider is on a horse weighted at 122 pounds, the animal is carry ing sixteen pounds ''dead weight" That slows the horse down.

I maintain the family name of Britain's Lord Mountbatlen was changed during World War I. Right? A. Quite right, Sir.

Beauty Many womtn considered great beauties are' not really beautiful. They are clever at con cealing their bad points and em phasizing their good points. Do you think Jean Harlow vas a beautiful woman? So do I. How ever, Jean herself was not . so .sure about it. So she made a study of the achievement of an appearance of beauty. Jean once said: "My nose doesn't belong to my face at all. When noses were shuffled and dealt out I drew somebody's else's. My eyes are set too deep in their sockets.

Husband Hunting "The Psychology of Young Men for the Instruction of Young Women." That is the title of a book by Edward Montier, which is reported to include some very helpful hints on hus band hunting. Monsieur Montier says, "A young woman supposes a young man is complicated like herself the young man sup poses the young woman is simple like himself." The psychologist further says that when a young woman realizes the i average young man is a simple ' trusting soul, who is no match for the wiles of the average young fe male, she will have no difficulty in handling the male of the species. Test How is your enunciation? Do you think it is good enough for you to be an airwave announcer or broadcaster of sports events?

If you can rapidly re peat each of these sentences, three times without making an error, your enunciation is good. Record What is the world's record for changing a diaper by a father?
