In hours of bliss we oft have met; They could not always last; And though the present I regret I'm grateful for the post. William Consreve. How much does the weight of a mother affect that of her child at birth? Dr. Effie Lobdell of Chicago once reported she had officiated at a blessed event in which the mother weighed 745 pounds and the father 304. The newly born infant weighed nine pounds. Tippers Waitress ' of long experience says the most generous tippers in the order named are: 1 Mo tion picture directors; 2 race horse owners and trainers; 3 newspapermen. As for the worst tippers she says they are: 1 Baseball players; 2 barbers; 3 -women. Asking Queries from clients. Q Was 1900 a leap year? A No, sir . . . Q What are said to be the ideal measurements for a dress model? A Bust, 35; weist, 23; and hips, 35. Height, 5 feet 8. Weight 120. Should also have small hands, long legs . . . Q What's the "youngest mother" record for the United States? A Could not say definitely. However, not so many years ago a 10 year old girl became a mother in Cali fornia. To be exact, she was ten years and nine months old. Aside A recording of "Auf Wieder gehn" by Vera Lynn is said to have sold about three million copies and netted Vera royalties amounting to nearly $100,000 It is not beyond the range of probability that the Brooklyn Dodgers baseball franchise will be sold to Los Angeles. Passing By Mary Magdalena Von Losch Sieber. Professionally known as Marlene Dietrich. She has been married to the same man, Rudolf Sieber, for thirty-one years. She has been a film star for twenty five years. She began her enter tainment career as a violinst. Hon and Woman "A pretty foot is one of the greatest gifts of nature," said Goethe. No doubt he was right. I never have been much of an observer of women's feet. How ever, I can appreciate the beauty of a woman's hand. I believe the shape of a woman's hand can be an indication of her character. That is, as to whether she is in telligent, artistic, well bred and has good taste. Almost' Confidential Am asked how high above the East River is the place on the Brooklyn Bridge from which Steve Brodie is alleged to have jumped. Answer is 135 feet . . . The best rendition of a comic song I ever heard was Vesta Victoria singing "Waiting at the Church." Second best, Fannie Brice singing "Sadie Salome Go Home." Third, Lisa Kirk singing "Always True to You in My Fashion." Picturesque In the yesteryear in Japan only bachelorettes wore red petticoats. That was one of the ways a young .woman made it known she was single. Quite a picturesque idea. Wonder how it would work out in this country. Anyway, a group of bachelor ettes might get together and form an organization known as "The Red Petticoat Club." They could wear red petticoats on the oc casion of their annual dance.

Committee Okays U.S. Debt Ceiling BY UNITED PRESS The House Ways and Means Committee has voted for. a federal debt ceiling which Treas ury Secretary George M. Humphrey said will make it im possible to cut taxes or boost spending in the next 12 months. The committee unanimously approved an administration re quest that the ceiling, now tem porarily set at $281,000,000,000, be continued for another year. The debtnowispushing$275,000, 000,000, the so-called permanent level to which the ceiling is scheduled to drop at midnight Thursday. Humphrey agreed to ask ex tension of the temporary limit because he figured he couldn't get congressional approval of a higher figure for either the tem porary or permanent lid. But he said it would "leave absolutely no room" in the next year for either tax cuts or spend ing hikes. Pension Eligibilities Reported by Officer Veterans over 65 years of age, who have served 90 days or more, who were discharged un der conditions other than dis honorable, and who can meet other requirements, are eligible for a monthly pension of $78.75 according to county veterans ser ice officer Charles D.
