Marriages between members of the U.S. armed serv ices and British girls take place at the rate of 250 a month. There are 43.000 U.S. service men sta tioned in England. The British beauties are very clever hus band hunters and it takes a smart bachelor of very strong character to escape their clutches. 8s They Say Aries (March 21-ApriI 20) born men are very susceptible to flattery. They are easily fooled by smart blondes and smooth talking salesmen. The way for a young fellow to get off to a good start with a cancer (June 22-July 23) girl is to tell her, "You certainly are hard to figure out." Cancer girls love to be thought of as being mys terious. Or, so say the star gazers. Asking Queries from clients. Q. Who wrote the song titled "I Hate to Get Up in the Morning?" I say Irving Berlin. My father says there was a song of that title before Berlin began to write songs. A. Around 1901 Hughie Cannon and John Queen wrote a song titled "I Hates to Get Up Early in the Morning." Some years later Berlin wrote one titled "Oh. How I Hate to Get Up in the Morning.". Incident ally, Cannon and Queen were the authors of that smash hit titled "Bill Bailey.

I have been smoking cigars since I was 14 years old and so far haven't even had dyspepsia. . . It was none other than Joseph Billings who said, "Marrying for love may be a little risky but it's so honest that God cannot help but smile at it." Horses and Woman . The artificial aids to feminine beauty are now so numerous it is understandable why a young man often wonders how many of the physical attributes of the girl of his dreams are natural. All dressed up and all made up a young woman may present a highly glamorous appearance. Still her beautiful red hair may be a dyeing job, her eyelashes may be artificial, her figure en hanced by "gay deceivers and her streamlined limbs have the - benefit of leg "falsies." It is now even possible for a girl to regu late the color of her eyes. At one time a young fellow could get an idea of his girl's true figure by seeing her in beach attire. But now they even have "falsies" for bathing suits. When, after marriage, a young husband learns of these artificial aids to beauty utilized by his bride it must be quite a test of his love.

Model 4109 - lVi-ton Stake Perfume Given Off by Male Seals Said To Lure Cows for Considerable Distance By DELOS SMITH United Press Science Editor New York (U.R) An obscure scientist in an obscure place had made the observation that among seals it is the male who gives with the perfume and it is the female who is lured there by. Irresistably lured, mind you. Furthermore, the female knows her man among a million by his characteristic perfume, can pick up the bouquet at sea for con siderable distances, and is guid ed by it to his loving side. Clears Up Mystery This observation by J. E. Ham ilton, a scientist stationed in the Falkland Islands in the South Atlantic off Argentina, promises to clear up the age-old mystery of how the females of fur seals and the southern sea lions un failingly find their true mates.

When the females start arriv ing, all heavy with child as the result of the previous breeding season, and wallow up onto the crowded beach, you'd think con- Lfusion and carnage would reign. But there is no confusion nor carnage at all. Surrounded by Harem Each female finds her male. Quickly each male is surrounded by his harem. That is what al ways happens, year after year. The question is, how in the world do the seals and sea lions manage it? Hamilton came to the scienti fic, conservative conclusion that the "pleasant perfume" of the males is "of value to the species as a direction indicator to the cows. We cannot estimate the distance at which the odor could be observed by the animals it may be greater than we think." W - ton, 90" box heavyweight Phone 2-6115 Medford
