They'll Do It Every Time " By Jimmy Hatlo SykJ f hocum? -me Pixrr &jys JSi ' ?H X CALLED AT 8 -4.M. yWj ZxWiC ALWAYS SHOW UP JUST On The Side By E. V. Durling (Distributed by King Fajturas Syndieata, Inc.) Whfrfl my love U not Is like a tomb; And the most Joyous spot In one of gloom. His fond cirp. So rillrd with bliss. His hand to press And ob, his kiss: Goetha How accurate were the pre dictions as to the blessed events at your house? A Bronx mother, who was unusually anxious to know whether her expected in fant would be a girl or a boy, consulted several physicians and a number of astrologers. She also took a saliva test. All pre dictions were that her expected child would be a boy. And so what? She gav birth to twin girls! Expectancy The life expectancy of the average man in the United States ij 69 610 years. According to the trade paper, the Advertising Age, the life expectancy of ad vertising people in this country is 57 910 years. That is about 12, years below the average. Not io good. Those in the advertising business should take things easier. It was Schopenhauer, who so rightly said, "The great est mistake a man can make is to sacrifice health for any oth er advantage. Fatting By Gene Fullmer, Middleweight boxing champion. A very inter esting young fellow. He is a Mor mon. Does not drink coffee, tea or liquor. Does not use tobacco. He is a veteran of the Korean war. Gives 10 per cent of his earnings to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Sidelights Recently I said I had readers named Cleopatra but none named Salome. I find I have two readers in Brooklyn named Sa lome. It is as I am always telling you, Brooklyn has everything . . . Was the original Santa Claus a Greek? That's what a coup'e of New-Yorkers are arguing about. Answer is in the affirmative. St. Nicholas was a Greek bishop. Santa Claus is Dutch for St. Nicholas. FUas Not Illegally distilled whisky, in bottles bearing counterfeit la bels of famous British brands of Scotch, has been sold in Italy in large quantities. So the Italian police have just discovered. Something like that could hap pen here. Be careful where you buy your liquor. Also occasional ly have it tested and the label checked as to being genuine. Asking Queries from clients. Q. What was Anna Held's last show? Was Mary Eaton in it? A. Anna's last show was a musical titled "Fol low Me," which was presented in 1916. Mary Eaton had a small part in it.. Q. Who is Pamela Joan Woolworth? Any relation to Barbara Hutton? A. Pamela, who is 28, is married, is Bar bara's cousin. She is also in pos session of much coin of the realm and apparently seeks to increase her fortune by engag ing in a wide variety of business enterprises. She owns a two mil lion acre ranch on which there are 65,000 head of cattle in Para guay, a dress shop in Miami, Fla., and a picture producing or ganization called Dragon Films. Diamonds Are diamonds, as has been al leged, "a girl's best friend?" That is, from the angle of their increasing in value as time goes by? I always thought such was the case. I was therefore sur prised to see it reported that a 213 carat diamond necklace for which $750,000 was paid 40 years ago, in 1916. was sold re cently for S385.000. A deprecia tion in value of almost 50 per cent. Ex-Husbands There appears to be no ade quote masculine equivalent of the term divorcee. Some dic tionaries deem it proper to re fer to a divorced person of either sex as a divorcee. How ever, to say or write "he is a divorcee' doesn't sound right. However, I can't think of a re placement for this term. Have you any suggestions? Let's try to solve this confusing situation. In the meanwhile, we can refer to divorced men simply as ex husbands. Or courtroom widowers. Laughs of the Day . . . New Haven, Conn. (U.R) Trapped in an outdoor telephone booth by a jammed door, Ar thur Chandler, 48, phoned po lice for help.

Salt Laic City (U.R) Mo torists from the Lone Star Stat Stat started it by placing paper OTalt in the rear windows of their cars reading "Built in Tex as by Taxans." California coun tered with the slogan, "Built in California by Indiant."

(U.R) Louis Dean was finsyl $50 for driving a truck 3,000 pounds overweight, despite his excuse that his cargo of live chickens weighed more because their fea thers were wet by water. Rochester, N.Y (U.R) John Janowici complained when bill ed by the city for S3.66 for re moving snow from his sidewalk. He said he's lived on his street for 10 years and it still has no sidewalks. For Quick Cash'r le Mail TnbunvW""- Ads The Low Cost vM: To Sil Items You o Looser Js'eed Resolution Seeks Retaining Beaches As Public Roads Salem (U.R) The House yes tesday passed 48-4 a joint resolu tion calling for a constitutional ammendment to retain the Pacif ic Ocean beaches as public high ways for the free use of the peo ple. The vote took place after a 45-minute debate sparked by lawyers who favored the res olution, but were concerned with whether or not the resolution precluded any possible offshore oil development. All the land between ordinary high tide and extreme low tide has been public highway since the administration of Gov. Os wald West. Prompted by Another Bill House joint resolution 24, voted on Wednesday, was prompted by another bill now before the Legislature which would take control of the beach es from the State Highway Department and transfer it to the State Land Board. Rep. Clanence Barton, Coquil le, pointed out that the State Land Board has the power to lease tidelands and said he didn't want to run the risk of having "no trespassing" signs appear ing on Oregon beaches as they do in California and most east ern seaboard states. Barton said that saving the beaches as public highways would not preclude oil and gas development if any gas or oil is found. Move Defeated A move to refer the resolu tion to the judiciary committee for legal clarification of the oil development question was de feated when speaker Pat Dooley broke a 26-26 tie vote. The bill that would transfer control of the beaches to the Land Board is now tabled in the House State and Federal Affairs Committee. Rep Thomas McClellan, Ne otsu, said the beaches were the state's "greatest permanent as set." Barton added that the resolu tion would "save the beaches for the men and women, boys and girls, of Oregon forever."
