l light is, with all there is in the world to write up, being turned on | the pay of columnists. Sime's theatrical weekly, Variety, started it with a stud-type banner: Gals 1 No. 8 In Soft Jobs," in welcoming the former president to columnar circles.
 It has given other columnists a chance to lie about wages. My im- pression is most readers are sur prised we are paid at all. My week ly stipend. so long as the whole gang has squealed, is SIS week, Tuesday afternoons off. but I must furnish my own typewriter and eat out.
 4 guess is our whole outfit is headed for oblivion. The gloomy pl ediction is based on the fate of other rackets when financial facts leak out. Recently a critic said: Tt is getting so anybody can be a col umnist." There was certainly no in tense struggle about it for me. I fizzled like a wet fire Cracker OH every other job on a newspaper before taking up columning. But as such a misfit have been able to live by grinding out a daily spasm like this. I am not alone in this good fortune. The halo Cf my fellows is the same tin hat.
 The sooner the braggarts realize
 ;r nf nla a tricks Fate often plays on melodies and quit blabbing about unearned increment, the longer We postpone the finish. I want to put it off un- til December IS. The next payment or the piano is then. Or out it goes.
 The columnist believes he is quite a case. John Gilbert, a year ago, l imagine had a similar conviction. l have said it before, and here it is again. nothing we do is at all lm- portant. We are happy victims Of an extraordinarily lucky break, and if I quit tomorrow others would do it as well, if not better.
 This is no effort to steal bow as q shrinking violet. None Of us is freighted with nnodesty. Each be- lievcs-I know I am-the best in the business. That is the trouble. We are top heavy with the divine afflatus they call ego.
 We tell our readers daily what we ate last night, who-as though everybody couldn't guess-paid the check. the night club We visited. the book we enjoyed and now We tattle about the size of the pay check. Actors used to do most of the talk ing about themselves, and look what happened. If I keep on in this depressing vein I'll do away with myself or something.
 To my notion there were two great columnists-Eugene Field and Bert Loston Taylor. The nearest runnerup is Franklin P. Adams. Nothing the rest have done has not been done by Field and Taylor. We merely founder about trails they blazed.
 I enjoy columns Of others chiefly because I beloCg to the guild. But I am as conscious of their defici- encies-I speak solely Of New York as I am my own. The theme of every column is a personal explolta- ton, an asinine application for the reader to remark: What q devil of q fellow.'
 As average humans, Columnists rate just as high as the next fellow but no higher. 1 know only two col Umnists who interest me converse tionally or in their writing. And l know of none l interest in either capacity. I find them unfailingly dull company.
