Adelaide Proctor Applicants for executive posi tions in major business organiza tions now find themselves asked . come extremely personal ques tions. An attempt is made to have the prospective executive reveal much of his private lift, The top men are especially inter ested in the applicant's matrimo nial mate. Among the questions asked in one interview were: 1 "What is it in you that your wife most objects to?" 2 "What is it you most object to in our wife?" As to the first question, a man can only guess. Many wives never reveal what they most ob ject to in their husbands. As for the second question, no gentle man would answer it. ' That Question ' V When the minister asked you if you took the woman for your lawfully wedded wife were you on your toes? I mean did you say, "I do,"or muff the question? When Louis Calhern married Ilka Chase he answered the ques tion being discussed by saying, ! do, I do, I most certainly do." Horse and Women ' A feminine subscriber says her measurements are as follows: height, 5 feet 5; weight 130 pounds; bust, 38; waist, 28, and hips, 38. She asks, "According o to your Horses and Women ex perts, how much streamlining do I need?" Answer is four inches off waist, three inches off hips. Eight pounds off weight. It is suggested this subscriber seek among her friends other women interested in streamlining and form a weight reduction club. It could be called the "Venus Club" and have for its slogan, "Twenty six or less by Christmas." That is, a 26 waist measurement by the Yuletide season. Salesman ' It is to be regretted "Dia mond Jim" Brady didn't write a book on the subject of salesman ship.

He never wanted any sal t, ary arrangement. . Worked on '" mmission only. His commis sions ran from $10,000 to $15,000 a eek when the dollar had four times the purchasing power it has now and there was .no in come tax. ' Passing By ' Jean Beal. Versatile thespian.

Casey Jones John Luther Jones, railroad engineer better known as "Casey" Jones, and his wife, Jane, had 14 years of happily married life.- Their happiness was ended by that historic wreck. One feature of that disaster that always interested me was that though it was .a terrific crash, only one person was killed, and that was . the . engineer, Casey Jones.

But rumors were diffi cult to avoid at this resort where. Eddie got his start as a linger. Happy Little Handsaw ... Once "upon a time there was a new handsaw that grew sad der day by day because nobody seemed to want him, even though there was so much won derful work for saws to do. The good old saw-maker who had brought Little Handsaw into the world warned him that tears would make his rusty, and at last took him on a visit to the woods and mills. ' In this way the adventure be gan. And if it doesn't seem na tural to you for a young hand saw to cry and shed tears to the rusting point, and for a good old saw-maker to feel sorry for "him" and take him on a trip to the woods, then you are simply not up to date on your small-fry reading matter. "The Happy Little Handsaw" is the title of a modern little story book by Robert E. Mahaf fay of Portland, with dazzling illustrations by Milli Eaton of this same river town. The West Coast Lumbermen's association is the publisher. Our American folklore is packed with tales of animals and things that act and speak like human characters. There was Davy Crockett's talking raccoon of Great Gap the story that made him famous. There " was Paul Bunyan's trotting and talk ing trees. Now there is Disney land, in which tools and mach ines behave and speak, as well as mice and men. Saw Seeing .... But about our story, now. Well, some folks go to the woods for sight-seeing. Little Handsaw and the saw-maker who was Two on Downed Cargo Plane Saved Honolulu (U.P.) Two of five crewmen who crash-landed their Flying Tiger cargo plane in mid Pacific Friday were en route to Honolulu today . aboard the freighter that rescued them after they had been in the water more than 43 hours. . The Coast-Guard said the other three crewmen were dead. None of the bodies was recov ered. , ; . . s' . Flying Tigers headquarters in Burbank, Calif., identified the two survivors as Tony Machado, Hollywood, the pilot, and Robert C. Hightower, Vallejo, Calif., the copilot. A radio report from the Coast Guard cutter Kukui at the res cue scene said the two survivors suffered broken bones and shark bites, but their condition was "not too, serious." . The freightei Steel Advocate pulled the two men from the Pa cific waters yesterday after they were spotted floating in life jackets less than 10 miles from the plane's last reported posi tion. The Steel Advocate found the bodies of two other crew mem bers floating face down in life jackets, but . while they were being pulled into a rescue boat, the bodies slipped out of the jackets and disappeared beneath the surface. : ' . The Coast Guard said the fifth man of the crew apparently never got out of the plane. . Dead line Sunday Classified is at noon Saturday: 10 ajn Monday for Monday: other days 5:30 orevious day a fine old filer, too-- went to the woods for saw-seeing. They did not stop, look and listen un til they came to a team of timber fallers at work with a giant, roaring chainsaw. They were ripping and snorting through the round stuff, It looked bad for the birds. Little Handsaw felt worse than ever until he was shown that many seed trees were left by the fallers and that the for est would always be a home for wildlife, while growing more trees to make more lumber and logs. But he still did not feel so good as he compared the great power saw with the little saw that was himself. ' This sad sense of smallness and uselessness in a world of Giant trees and machines grew in Little Handsaw as he was led on through the timber and the monster of a mill. On the mill's log deck Little Handsaw looked upon the size and work of the headrig bandsaw, the edger, trimmer, resay and gang. He heard the roars and screams of the giants of labor. He was feeling mean and low, and not only sad, when the good old man led him out of the mill. But then the way of lumber's progress from mill to end-use was followed, and Little Hand saw at last stood before the car penter who was building a house. If I were to tell you what happened then, it would spoil the story- Read the book. Early Learning Lasts ... For many, many . years" I've fussed around with the need for telling and showing the many fine and exciting and colorful stories of forest industry to the very young the Milne-agers, to make it clear. I've tried my own hand at it, but did poorly. The Mahaffay-Eaton production fills the bill. It is being distrib uted in Oregon, Washington and northern California by the West Coast Lumbermen's association, and teachers of the first and second grades 'are going to love it. . The increasingly popular "Po go" books by Jo and Ernest Nor ling have worked wonders with children a bit older. The 12th of the series, "Pogo's Oilwell," is now. in the bookstores. Each of the dozen has been written and illustrated to tell about a particular industry in simple, entertaining terms. One is on lumber. Another is on paper. I have an idea that "Happy Little Handsaw" will run into a series, too.
