PERON POSTERS RIPPED Qt the eve of the inaugura- i
tion of new Argentine President Gen. Eduardo Lonardi,
jubilant crowds parade through the streets of Buenos

Here they begin smashing a Peron poster which had just
been ripped from the front of the Union Building in
the background. -

my heart.

And should an Idle vision of
my tears
I Arise before your so til In after
years. -
Xemembercthat I thank you from my
heart. 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. Though now recalled chief
ly because of his jewelry, his
appetite and his admiration for
Lillian Russell, he was one of the
greatest salesmen of all time.
His specialty was railroad sup
plies. 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.
Remember him playing the title
role in the film version "of Bar
rie's "The Little Minister"? If
so, you are eligible for the Young
Old Timers Assn. He is now fea
tured in, the smash stage hit "The
Teahouse of the August Moon."
John - was born in Joplin, Mo.,
also the home town of that great
song writer Percy Weinrich, and
the picturesque ringman known
as "The Joplin Ghost." . . . Anita
Manville. The ninth ex-wife of
Tommy Manville. Anita and
and Tommy separated after 12
days of marriage. However,, that
is not the record for brevity of
a Manville marriage. One . Mrs.
Manville left forever after eight
hours of married life. Incident
ally, Tommy was married to his
first wife for II years.
Long Shots
Star jockeys don't always ruin
the prices of their mounts. One
day at Belmont Park Eddie Ar
caro and Willie Shoemaker rode
the winners of a daily double
that paid $583. Eddie rode Mt.
Hero to win the first'arid Willie
rode Pennant Day to win the sec
ond. Asking
:. Queries from clients. Q. Who
is your favorite French chan
teuse?. A. Lucienne Boyer. After
her, Suzy Solidor. ... Q. Who
wrote the weight reduction book
titled "Eat and Grow Thin?" A.
Vance Thompson. A very good
book. I once reduced 20 pounds
m a brief time following it. Is
out of print now.
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. Why hasn't there been a
musical play based on the life
of Jones? That could be very
good.
Reynolds; Fisher
May Wed Tonight
" Grossinger, N. Y. (U.R) ' i
Friends - of Eddie Fisher and
Debbie Reynolds said the 'long
hesitating Hollywood couple will
be married this evening at Gros
singer' s Country club here.
The .two entertainers, both of
whom checked in at the club
Sunday along with friends, have
not been available for comment
and no one connected with them
or the club would confirm the
reports. 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. .

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. ' '
