MONTMORENCY heated herself to a very expen--" sive new upper dental plate, but unfortunately it didn't fit. Before she had a chance to have it adjusted, she had to give a dinner for a Brit- ' ish consul and, fearful that one of the noble guests would see it slip ping, cautioned her but ler, "Don't take your eyes off me. If you see the plate slipping, signal me and say, 'Mr. Ginsberg is waiting outside to see lyou'." The dinner began, and sure enough, Mrs. Mont morency's -' plate broke loose from its moorings. The butler signalled fran tically, but It was some moments before he managed to catch her eye. Finally, she saw him, and asked fearfully, "What is it, Johnston?"

Motion Filed To Restore Lumber Shipment Ruling Portland-IUPD-A motion to restore an Interstate com merce Commission ruling aim ed at in-transit delays of lum ber shipments was filed Wed nesday afternoon in U.S. dis trict court here. The motion would reverse a present court order that sets aside the ICC ruling. The motion was filed after 19 lumber companies, includ ing Weyerhaeuser Timber Co. and Georgia Pacific Co., first filed another motion asking to intervene as defendants with the ICC against 104 oth er lumber companies and the Chicago and Northwest Rail road. Crux of Dispute Crux of .the dispute is the railroad practice of granting up to a 15-day free delay en route for lumber shipments by "transit" lumber dealers who ship lumber and find a customer while the shipment is en route. Banning of the practice came from the ICC on the grounds that the railroad did not grant the same privilege to other customers. District Judge John F, Kil kenny signed a temporary re straining order on the ICC ruling after the railroad and the 104 lumber companies protested.
