Hoover can now be classed as a bitter Herb. WANTED:—To borrow a few hun dred thousand dollars on the European plan.

Nobody’s Business ^ By Gee McGee. A Dozen Don’ts. 1.—Don’t go into business with partner who has nothing to lose and all to gain. 2.—Don’t try to explain to your brunette wife how that blond hair hap pened to lodge on your shoulder, tell her you don’t know and don’t care. 3.—Don’t toot your horn like a fool when the fellow in front of you choke down; he’s already mad. 4.—Don’t argue with a drunk man, a mad woman, a balking mule, a bum ble bee, or a jig-saw. 5.—Don’t let your creditors know that you have money a-pjenty for ever'y purpose in the world except paying debts; they might think hard of your wife. 6.—Don’t cuss every time you are stopped by a useless traffic light. Your city had to spend your tax money some way, and traffic lights were cheajrer by the dozen. 7.—Don’t count your chickens dur ing the depression until they are large enough to fry. Every cackle ain’t an egg any more. 8.—Don’t depend on government re lief or the other fellow. Every tub must sit on its own bottom now-a- <layg, and if it has no bottom, put it on and wear it. 9.—Don’t imagine that the United States is all right ju-t because we are better flff-'lhan Europe. Pa’s rheumatism didn’t feel any better when Ma was so low with typhoid fever. 10.—Don’t get it into your head that government aid] stopped the banks from busting. Nearly all of them had already busted when Uncle Sam found out how to save them. 11.—Don’t trust the man you elect ed to office to reduce your tax bur dens. He will need your help if any thing is done. Politicans are always running for office, and not worrying about how you are getting along. Vote bad men out. _ * \ _ The Forgotten Man By EDWIN MARKHAM '^o fy’Cchc.afcud. to 'bfa, **.4— j/irr i NOT on our golden fortunes builded high— Not on our boasts that soar into the sky— Not upon these is .resting in this hour The fate of the future; but upon the power Of him who is forgotten—yes, on him Rest all o\ir hopes reaching from rim to rim. In him we see all of earth’s toiling bands, With crooked backs, scarred faces, shattered hands. 9 H E seeks no office and he asks no praise For all the patient labor of his days. He is the one supporting the huge weight: He is the one guarding the country’s gate. He bears the burdens on these earthly ways: * We pile the debts, he is the one who pays. He is the one who holds the solid power To steady nations in their trembling hour. Behold hijn as he silently goes by. For it is at his word that nations die. Shattered with loss and lack. He is the mart who holds upon his back The continent and all its mighty loads— This toiler who makes possible the roads On which the gilded thousands travel free— Makes possible our feasts, our roaring boards, Our pomps, our easy days, our golden hoards. He gives stability to nations: he Makes possible our nation, sen to sea His strength makes possible our college walls— Makes possible our legislative halls— Makes possible our churches soaring high With spires, the fingers pointing to the sky. SlIALL then this man go hungry, here m lands Blest by his honor, builded by his hands? Do something for him: let him never be Forgotten: let him have his daily bread: He who has fed us. let him now be fed. I^et us remember all his tragic lot—, Remember, or else be ourselves forgot! A LL honor to the one that in this hour Cries to the world as from a lighter! tower— Cries for the Man Forgotten. Honor the one Who asks for him a glad place in the sun. He is a voice for the voiceless. Now, indeed. We have a tongue that cries the mortal need. Copyright. I9JZ. Kflwit Mirkhaa \Jehts of *> O J WALTER NEW YORK TRUMBULL bummed.

What If It Is? Times, customs, condition- and fwople have changed considerably dur ing the past 30 years. I can remem ber when a young fellow was practi cally disgraced for life if his shirt- tail wag out in public, and a guy that would go around with ladies with his collar unbuttoned was considered al most indecent in his dress. In other words, he was not only common, he was tacky. Women will follow the^tyle-, no matter how or what they exploit. Short di'esse s were common \n two weeks, yet they jumped from tbe an kles to 2 inches above the knees.

I would not have missed it for worlds. Anyone who never has witnessed a dress re hearsal of a musical show, like the man who never had suffered from de lirium tremChs, “ain’t seen nothin’.” To watch the director alone is worth many times the price of admission. When someone inadvertently let down the. drop for tire? next scene on the heads of the chorus doing a dance number, none of the cast was killed, but it seemed that the director was going to die of hydrophobia. When, in the midst of a duet, the stage hand parted the velvet curtains and stuck his head through, the director suffered from a form of throat paralysis. He could make only weird sounds, while his cheeks appeared to Inflate after the manner of a red balloon. His countenance was still so fiery that it shone in the dark when the electrician missed his cue and gave the perform ers a black-out instead of the ex pected moonlight. His language was even more flaming than his face. And what saved him from apoplexy when the curtain stuck, I still cannot imag ine. No director of a musical show would seem to be a good insurance risk. It didn’t even seem to have a sooth ing effect when the treadmill failed to work and the horse galloped off stage into the wings. • * • The dress rehearsal of a musical show generally lasts from around 8 p. m. until 5 o'clock in the morning. Then the performers, authors, stage crew, musicians and directors make for home and bed, and sleep the sleep of exhaustion until about 5 o'clock in the afternoon, when they wake up, fresh and nervous. On the opening night, everything usually goes like clockwork, the show is over a little after 11, and those concerned rush out to get tiie morning paper to see what the critics have to say concerning what has taken weeks of effort and large amounts of money. As a gambler, pro ducing a musical show makes roulette look like a piker’s game. * • • One of the denizens of a New York pet store is a great advertisement for the business. It is a chimpanzee, and every afternoon the owners of the shop take it out for a walk on Fifth avenue. * * * 1 get most of my hotel news from Frank Case, Ted Saucier, and Royal Ryan, and there always is something happening in t lie small cities which are metropolitan hotels. Mr. Ryan, forex- ample. lias been telling me of the O'Neils, of Pittsburgh. It seems that Mrs. O’Neil hid a valuable diamond ring in the pillow-case of her lied In a New York hotel, and in the next morning’s hurry to get away early for Atlantic City, forgot it. When she re membered it, there was considerable ruction and her husband telephoned back to tiie hotel. Naturally, the room had been cleaned and remade, and looking through the laundry bag of a big city hostelry is quite a job. Maids, bellboys, and even extra elevator op erators were put to work—twentyHwo of them. Carefully, they searched and they shook, but it was not until they literally had examined thousands of pieces of linen that a bellboy inverted a pillow-case and out rolled the ring. I suppose things »of that sort happen almost dally at all hotels. • • * Why Broadway producers spend a fortune making a show beautiful to the eye and ear and the'n, suddenly and without necessity, drag in something which offends the nostrils, I never have been able to figure out. They rfiust figure that their public wants it, which is a sure tip-off on what they think of their customers. ©. 1932. Bell Syndicate.—‘WNU Service.
