to her to pop the question of mar
riage, and how could any true
gentleman refuse after he had
enjoyed her dinners, theaters and

himself up to his neck in hot water

As for the girls, I should hate to
see them fall for the plan without
thinking seriously Of its possibilities
for disaster for themselves. Men,
as we know, often are very obstinate.

NEW YORK, Dec. 5.-The
L trouble with professors isn't
really with professors. The leaders
Of scholastic thought suffer from
the things which are done to them
in comic strips and on the stage and
in the talking pictures. A good gag
is a precious heritage from our
ancestors, and the American public
will fight to defend it. The same is
true Of bad gag
For at least half a century a
familiar figure in fiction has been
the old gentleman with diversified
galoshes who comes into the room
at just the right wrong moment and
exclaims-"Why, bless my SOUL
Martha. whatever can you be think
ing of?"

AS a subscriber I wish to express
my appreciation at noting the label
Of the allied printing trades at the
head of the editorial column. To
those of us who have been advocates
years this means much. To us it
speaks more perhaps than to those
not informed.
For instance this insignia of fair
dealing is expressive of peace and
tranquility in industry; not armed
neutrality, but concord and under
standing. Further it is indicative
that the employer and the employe
are working together in an effort to
bring about better conditions for
those who put forth the manual eff
fort; that this element is taken into
consideration and given a voice.
1t is noticed that The Times is
lending aid and encouragement to
those of the mechanical depart
mentS in their efforts to help their
less fortunate brethren bear the
burdens of these times of stress. 1t
tells that this paper is at one with
these workmen who have given
freely of their incomes, running into
the millions of dollars to help those
of their kind that have felt the
pinch of adversely ride out the
storm; that those of the composing
room have since the first of this
year donated one day a week to
meet the industrial depression in
their own trade; that this organiza-
ton alone Typographical is spend
ing more than $125000 a month to
its old members in the way of pen
Sions; that it is spending thousands
of dollars each month in death
benefits; that it is caring for its
sick and disabled in its home at
Colorado Springs.
Now we are hearing so much
about the help that is to flow from
the beneficence of government, and
to which organized labor is giving
such loyal support, the union
label, which has through the years
been the indicator of those condi-
tions now being advocated, it's use
is doubly significant.
And The Times is to be con-
graduated on its recognition of this
emblem and its courage in pro-
claiming faith in it's possibilities is
to be commended. For the union
label is guaranty that the article on
which it appears was not produced
under sweat shop conditions; that

NTELL, girls, today we have a
w new idea about courtship. 1t
emanates from the brain of a San
Diego young man, who longs to see
marriage made more beautiful and
permanent.
Briefly, his scheme is this: Let
girls and women finance all wooings
from start to finish. No going
Dutch, you understand. The lady
pays everything.
You can see what he's getting at.
If We girls spend our money Te

TOO TOUGH TO LIVE

TIE was so tough that even the gangs
couldn't stand him"
This is the epitaph that might be written
on the tombstone of Verne Miller, war hero
sheriff, turned gang killer.
Miller won a great reputation with the
A. E F. as one of the quickest "on the draw"
of all our soldiers, a dead shot, and fearless.
He came back to win acclaim as a brave and
capable sheriff
But money ran through his fingers like
water. He stole county funds. He went to
prison and came out to start on the garish
career that ended when foes beat him to
death in Detroit and threw his body in
ditch.
He slew without mercy, welding ma
chine gun as an ordinary marksman handles
a. revolver. He shot down four peace officers in
the Kansas City massacre, according to the
best police evidence, and in his zeal killed
even the outlaw he had started out to rescue
The moral to all this seems to be that even
gangsters can't stand 'em toe tough Even
they apparently tire of killing some one just
to see how the gun is working.

BY A. E. F. Veteran.
Here is a toast with best wishes
to the passing Of the rumrunnerS
and bootleggers who took a risk
on life and liberty to furnish
drinks to those who were too poor
to buy a ticket to Canada from
1919 to 1888. God bless the brave
and bold for all they have done
to alleviate the suffering of the
thirsty for fourteen years in spite
of the walls of the reformers and
goody-goodys.
They didn't serve free lunch
with drink but they we're on the
job day and night, giving service
to those that needed service.
There were no closing hours, and
many a life was saved by drink
when drink was needed.
Men, you did your particle
to 1888.

child labor was not incorporated in
it's being; that equal wage was paid
for equal work without regard to
sex; that hours of labor were COM
patible with health and recreation
demands; that wages is so far as
possible in an anarchic industrial
setup were fair and equable.
In the fifty years since the
union label has been an agency Of
the trade union movement this has
been it's story and this its objective.
Had all industry the courage and
the fairness Of The Times and did
all industry have that tranquility

This is the second of two articles by
DR.. Morris Fishbein on hardness Of
hearing, and how to overcome it.
7 IFE, for those who develop pro-
~ gressive deafness, can be just as
complete and happy as for those
more fortunate in hearing. 1t is
only necessary for the hard Of hear
ing to equip themselves in ways
that will help them overcome this
handicap.
The child who is hard of hearing
can learn lip reading in many
schools, particularly in the cities,
where such courses are available
to aid the teacher in instructing
the children.
AS the child grows older, he finds
that modern electrical science
makes available hearing aids
which are more sensitive, less ex-
pensive, and easier to carry than
these devices used to be.
True, they have their drawbacks,
but with the combination of hear
ing devices and lip reading, most

Al Replaces His Coat

nURING the last campaign AL
- Smith was going to take off
his coat to fight any demagogue in
his own party or among the Repub-
licans, but 7 know of few things
more demagogic than Mr.. Smiths
recent attempts to convince Ameri-
cans that We all are being turned
into laboratory animals by callow
cabinet youths intent on expert
menting just for the fun of it.
Mr.. Smiths reference to the
100000 guinea pigs seemed to
me particularly unfortunate. Al
wants to turn these millions back
into the hands Of the old leaders
in spite Of their record Of greed and
vital errors. Guinea pigs get food
and shelter. Under the old regime
Of rugged individuahsm, which Al
has begun to sponsor SO vigorously,
there was good many human be-
ings not quite as well off as that.
BY now I am beginning to under
stand why Al Smith took up the
practice Of wearing a brown derby.
He feared, and he had reason to
fear, that without it nobody would
be able to distinguish him from
Herbert Hoover.

We don't know who to take our
trouble to. We live in the vicinity of
Blake and New York streets. For
the last month and half, we have
been bothered by a continuous buzz
ing noise in our radios. We have
had men out to look at our radios
and we have bought new tubes But
that doesn't seem to help. We have
kept the wires hot calling WFBM
and WKBF and also the Power and
Light Company. WFBM told us
that it would cost too much to have
the matter looked into.
AS you stand up for the people,
maybe you could do something to
give us some help on this matter.
Sunday, we couldn't even hear the
Indianapolis stations.
I'm not asking you to take my
word for it. If I would get a petit
ton with all our names, would it do
any good? I know you don't do this
kind of work any more. But we
thought you might help us or tell
us some way we could be rid of this
