Durling (Distributed by King Feature Syndicate, Inc.) One bosom to recline upon, One heart to be his only one, Are quite enouth lor love. Wht can we wish, that is not here Between your heirt and mine? Is there, on earth, a space so dear As that within the haDpv sphere Two loving arms entwine? Thomas Moore What major city in this coun try has the most aged public school building? It is difficult to top New York in that respect. On West Fifty-fourth st., Man hattan, is located Public School No. 69. James K. Hackett, the distinguished actor, graduated from Public School No. 69 just about 70 years ago. That is, with the class of 1886. The school is still housed in the same build ing it was when Hackett was a lad. Incidentally, I would like to see a record of the graduates of good old P. S. 69. No doubt it includes the names of many dis tinguished New Yorkers. Vegetarians It was none other than Hor ace Greeley who observed, "I judge that a strict vegetarian will live ten years longer than an habitual flesh eater, while suffering in the average less than half as much sickness as the car nivorous must." (Note Greeley, a strict vegetarian, died at the age of 61. Not much of a long evity record. All of us know many lovers of steak and roast beef medium who are over 80. And feeling fine.) Asides Tiziano Vecelli, the Italian painter, tetter known w Titian, who had the honor of having a type of blonde named after him, was still painting blondes at the age of 99! Shows what an inter est in blondes will do for a man '. . . Frequent references are made to females who are ''beau tiful but dumb." The fact is that beautiful women are rarely dumb. Brainy people of both sexes are usually much better looking than unintelligent peo ple. Asking Queries from clients. Q. What is the real name of the buxom entertainer who calls herself "Dag-mar? A. Ruth Egnor. . . . Q. Come, come, Edgar, keep us not in suspense. What horse is going to win the Kentucky Derby? A. Head Man . . . Q. What was the name of Prince Aly Kahn's mother? A. Theresa Magleano. She was the Aga Kahn's second wife. Incident ally, the current wife of the Aga Kahn, his fourth, is the former Yvette Labrousse who in 1930 won the , bathing beauty title "Miss France." Slogan As to the origin of that slogan of the Post Office Department. Don't misquote it. It was in 430 B.C. that Herodotus peakkif ef the Persian post riders, said, "Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift accom plishment of their appointed route." So They Say Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) men are greatly dependent on their wives and are lost in a fog with out them. A Scorpio husband, floundering around a house, try ing to take care of himself while his wife is away is a pathetic figure. Or so say the stargazers. Answers Sought to MacFadden Fortune Dansville, N. Y. U.R) Did the late Bernarr MacFadden bury a fortune in cash on the grounds of his physical culture hotel here? Or was he just out for some of the exercise he always touted when he was seen in a wooded section carrying a box and a shovel a few years ago? The Bernarr MacFadden Foun dation said Saturday it will try to find the answer to those questions in a treasure hunt on the 45-acre grounds the week end of May 12. Foundation President Edward Bodin of New York said Mac Fadden's former wife. Mary Mac Fadden, and his widow, Jonnie Lee, believe he buried 5500,000 in a metal box. MacFadden was reported to be worth many millions while in the publishing business. But he was said to be in debt when he died last year.
