Others claim it to be Florida. I think it is Florida. I recall it being reported that recently in Palm Beach, Fla., n 81 year old man driving a 1925 Ford collided head on with an 83 year old man driving a 1923 Ford. Asking --. Queries from clients.-Q. Do you recall a aance team oilled as "Eleanora Hughes and Maur ice?" A. No sir. However, one of the greatest-of all ballroom dance teams was that of Maur ice Mouvet and Florence Wal ton, who were billed as "Maur ice and Walton." They , were ri vals of Mr. and Mrs. Vernon Castle.

Understanding Women ' ; The .University of London, Greer Garson's alma mater, now has a course for men on "How to Understand Women." Certain ly a step in the right direction.

In this country over 7,000,000 persons are on government payrolls. This is an all time high. It includes Feder al, State, city and county gov ernments. . . Drinkers ' ' " The world's most durable drinkers are the Dutch. A Hol lander thinks nothing' of drink ing ' eight gins before dinner. After dinner he switches to whisky and brandy.
