Durling (Ditrributco" by King Future SyndiciW. Inc.) Discussing the reluctance of the average Irish bachelor to marry until his middle 30s, Colm Brogan commented, "Ireland is a man's country, one of the few left. In a man's country the life of a gay bachelor is gay indeed." (Note The life of a gay bachelor can be very gay in this country, too. Possibly a lot gayer than in Ireland. However, the husband hunting technique of the aver age American girl is so well de veloped and handled with such cleverness that, it takes a very unusual bachelor to retain his liberty after the age of 25. 1 am referring, of course, to so called "eligible" or desirable bachelors. There is considerabletruth in this country that frequently re peated feminine remark, "All the nice men are married.") Orer There Swedes are the most enthusi astic consumers of coffee and al coholic liquors in the world. The Swedish love, of liquor is held lightly In check by some ex tremely strict legislation. You cannot buy a drink in Sweden unless you order a meal. You cannot drink alcoholic liquor standing up. No drinks are sold before noon. The portion of al coholic drink served a female is less than that of a male. The fa vorite drink of Swedes is Schnapps, one of the world's most potent potions. The Swedes handle their liquor well and in ebriated persons are rarely seen in public places. Hones and Women as my uncle AI and I were walking up Nassau Street we heard a passerby say, "Why, that dame is nothing but a dumb blonde." My Uncle Al said, "Ed gar, something every young man should know is that there is no such thing is a dumb blonde." I thought of this when I heard Diana Dors, the British beauty, referred to' as "a dumb blonde." Diana is one of the world's smartest females. And she is married to a very smart man.

One of its employees arrived late" at a Senate subcommittee meeting chairmanned by Sen. William Langer (R.-N.D.). Lan ger found it "necessary to fine the committee reporter S20 for being 20 minutes late. Later he inserted an account of his'action in the Congressional Record. Newspapers offered various reason for the stenotypist's tar diness. Jesse L. Ward said none was correct. He said the incident arose from an omission in the firm's assignment sheet. MacArlhur Hearing Ward told Langer what had happened because he didn't want the senator to think ' we take our responsibilities lightly." Ward and Alfred C. Paul, whose firm prepares the tran script of President Eisenhower's news conferences as well as the records of many congressional committees, joined forces nearly 25 years ago to write the record of the National Recovery admin istration. This was the "largest (report ing) undertaking in history," ac cording to Ward. The firm put in more than three years with the recovery administration, re porting on all phases of its work. Some 300,000 pages of transcript were the product of this enter prise. One of the firm's most exten- ana is 24. Her husband is 31. They started from scratch and, now own nine prosperous busi ness outfits and 25 real estate properties. They have an estate on the Thames. They own a yacht, a plane and three auto mobiles. Cigarettes That establishment on the avenue of the Americas, Manhat tan, which features the sale of several hundred different brands of cigarettes has one called "Prince De Monaco." This is an Egyptian brand named in honor of one of Prince Rainier's prede cessors. Beauty Italian women are the most beautiful in Europe. On this all recognized experts on the sub ject of feminine pulchritude are agreed. The most beautiful wom en in Italy are those of Northern Italy. Incidentally, the women of the Piedmont mountain section of Italy are said to have the finest hair in the world. It is to that part of Italy the wig makers go to purchase hair from the fem inine natives. Keep this in mind if your wife is considering the purchase of a. transformation or a chignon. Advise her to ask for one made from the hair of a Northern Italian blonde. Famous Bedhead Am asked if Guiseppe Gari baldi, the great Italian patriot, was red-haired. He was. Incident ally, something not frequently mentioned is that.' Garibaldi was a United States citizen. He once lived on Staten Island, N.Y., where he worked as candle maker and became naturalized. Another celeb'rated resident of Staten Island was' William Shakespeare. I am referring, of course, to the William Shake speare who played in the back field for Notre Dame during the Knute Rockne era. Sidelights ' How does your matrirsonlal mate rate as a pie maker? Can she make Mississippi pecan pie? Speaking of food have you tried Florida corn on the cob? Very unusual . . . women who are chain cigarette smokers are usu ally suffering from acute frustra tion. That is, they are not being loved enough or properly. Same is true of women who eat too much.
