to counties with more than 50,-
000 population. It allows 10
nersons who say a business o.per
ation in their area is a nuisance
to sign a petition citing the
propietor before the county
court. The proprietor would have
to show why his operation was
not a nuisance.
Con rrpno T. Brown was one
of nine members who attacked
the measure. He said it allowed
"uniustified heckling" of a leg
itimate business by a few dis
gruntled individuals. He sug
gested the entire statute be re

On The Side
By E. V. DURLING
(Distributed by King Features
Syndicate, Inc.)
Referring to Irving Berlin I
said he was born in New York
City. He was born in Russia
Was brought to New York at
the age of 4. Incidentally, L
Wolfe Gilbert, who wrote "Wait
ing for the Robert E. Lee," was
also born in Russia. He was
brought to Philadelphia when a
babe in arms. I. always think of
Berlin as" a New Yorker and Gil
bert as a Fhiladelphian. I con
cede, however, it is not exactly
rights It works both ways. Take
Emil Jahnings, the film char
acter' actor. I think of him as a
German. Still Jannings was born
in Brooklyn. His parents took
him to Germany when he was
3 and he stayed there the rest
of his life.
Briefly
To be eligible for member
ship in the Bald Head Club of
America a man must have
bald spot at least three inches
in diameter ... A good birth
day song is "My Best to You,'
written by Gene Willadsen and
Isham Jones. It is much better
than that corny, childish ditty
"Happy Birthday to You." . . The
Concatenated "Order of Hoo-Hoo
is the name of a St. Louis lum
berman's association."
Longevity
Women born under Virgo
(August ZJ-faeptember ii) us
ually live to ripe "old age. Or,
so say the stargazers. They may
be right. Mrs. Anna Petterson,
Sunbury, Pa., 98; Mrs. Amanda
Thomas, Shamokin, Pa., 95, and
Mrs. Elizabeth Yust St. Clair,
Pa., 90, were all born under the
sign of Virgo and have the same
birthday, September 14.
Asides
It was Sarah Bernhardt who
said, "I always swore that if
I ever married it would be sim
ply to make yourself more popu
lar with all men for I was never
blind to the fact that men like
a woman better for being an
other man's property." . . Jerome
Kern composed over one thou
sand songs, the best of which
in my opinion is "Smoke Gets
in Your Eyes."
Get It Right
The "stop" and "go" sign traf
fic system was first used in this
country in New York City, fifty-
two years ago. The man respon
sible was Alexander R. Piper,
who in1903 was second deputy
police commissioner of New
York City in charge of traffic.
Mr. Piper was not, however, the
originator of the system. He had
made a special trip to London
to study police methods and
handling of traffic there. He
noted the "stop" and "go" traf
fic system was being used at the
five cross streets at the Mansion
Housed London. In New York
the "stop" and "go" system was
first used at Broadway and Ca
nal Streets.
Naming Towns
There is a town named Pa
tricia, Texas. Also there is Lois,
Texas; Ethel, Texas and Pene
lope, Texas. There is even a
Peggy, Texas. The Lone Star
State has - secenty-eight towns
bearing girls' names, more than
any other State in the Union.
What would you say is the larg
est town or city in this country
having a girl's name? How about
Elizabeth, N.J.?
Asking
Queries from clients. Q. How
long ago was the play, "The
Philadelphia Story" first p r e
sented. and who starred in it?
A. Sixteen years ago. Katharine
Hepburn was the star. Q. What
breed was the official dog of the
United States Marine Corps dur
ing World War II? A. The Dober
man Pinscher.
