V. Darting (Distribute1 bv Ktef hHim Syaicata, lac) - Considering the sharpshooters .1 have checking on me, it is a wonder I have a stogie left to "my name. I said Gene Tunney 'was the only heavyweight box ing champion born in New York -City. Not only have the afore- mentioned sharpshooters inform- I ed me rightly that James J. Brad- dock was also born in New York City, but they have furnished me the street address of his birthr place! Jim first saw the light of day at 551 West 48th st., in the borough of Manhattan. There should be a commemorative tab let on that building. Please Note, " "To what extent are you both' -ered by mosquitoes in the good -old summertime? Ever hear of an herb called basil? It is said .a potted basil will keep mosqui toes and also flies away from the vicinity. It is reported to be so used successfully at the sidewalk :caf es in Paris. Greai Lovers , . t Paris is. possibly the world's most romantic city. However, the great lovers chiefly responsible for making it so are not French men. Most of the tall, dark, hand some romantic heart-throbs that -make life extremely interesting for women in Paris are men from other countries. Commenting on this, one woman of the world said, "Most Frenchmen are too short, shave too infrequently and eat too much garlic to be truly great and inspiring lovers." Hard Labor What do women believe best rates the description, "hard la bor"? How about scrubbing the bathroom floor? Anyway, I be lieve those feminine "scofflaws" who ignore traffic tickets and otherwise display disrespect for the law, should be given prison terms with "hard labor." Ninety days of scrubbing floors might make them better citizens. It is disrespect for the law by adults that breeds juvenile delinquents. Asking Queries from clients: Q. What was the amount of Bo bo Rocke feller's divorce settlement? How long had the marriage lasted? A. Divorce settlement referred to was about $5,500,000. The Rocke fellers had been married six years but were separated for four of those years. Q. Are you fa' miliar with a poem including the line: "If I can stop one heart from breaking"? A. Yes, ma'am. It is by Emily Dicklinson and can be found in a copy of her works.. Passing By Joe Madden. Picturesque Man hattan restaurateur. Internation ally celebrated authority on the subject of steaks. His place is a great favorite with athletes and other hearty eaters. Joe is a na tive New Yorker and remembers when the run killing double play combination of McGraw's Giants was Dablen to Gilbert to Mc-Gann. Hypnotists 1 - As for professional feminine hypnotists, there is a smart look ing young woman named Joan Brandon so engaged who is quite a hit on thetounty and State fair circuits. Another woman similar ly occupied is Lynne Gordon of Manhattan. Lynne has hynotized number of celebrities, among them Artie Shaw. Haven't for gotten Artie, have you? He's the bandmaster who has been mar ried seven times, his matrimonial mates including two movie stars, Lana Turner and Ava Gardner. Also the beautiful novelist, Kath leen Winsor. Ava Gardner seem ed particularly sad to have lost Artie as a husband. Maybe she P ''mf ' yi x - i x V ' . - I . , . .

Kentucky acquired 160 new manufacturing plants, with plan ned employment totaling 39,778, from January, 1948, to May, 1954. should have studied hypnotism. Horses & Women Why are so many women pat ronizing barber shops these days? Can't they get the kmd of hair cut they, want at beauty shops? That's the question I asked. Am informed that a popular current hairstyle is called "shingled in back." It seems barbers handle this style more skillfully than beauticians. Hence the current female invasion of barber shops. ers. The veteran must have been a Washington resident for at least one year immediately prior to his military duty. Active ser vice must have been between June-27, 1950 and July 25, 1953. Immediate Cease Fire Demanded in Indochina London U.R) The Indochina International Armistice Com mission has demanded an imme diate, cease fire in the fighting between Communist and govern ment troops in Laos, the official Indian Information Service has announced.
