By THE WALL STREET
SPECTATOR

NEW YORK, May IA UN.S0.
Buyers are still naming their own
prices for stocks as Wall Street
goes into the new week. Despite
the new spill on Saturday. there
are more converts to the belief
that the market is rapidly ap-
preaching at least a temporary
turn. This is not surprising
since the current decline has
been one of the most prolonged
in recent years, and some stocks
have lost nearly half their value.

Doctor Wilson, Of Los Angeles,
says that the worlds worst
wives come from colleges. He
believes that what they don't
know about marriage would fill
q clothes line.
I guess q man generally pre-
ferS a welcomed woman to a
well informed one.
You know, an educated wife
can talk hours on one subject
Whereas the average wife
don't need any subject.
And on the other hand,
where the Old-fashiOned wife
opens each meal with a prayer
.. The college girl does it with
q can opener.
So Remember:
No matter how many hOnOrs
are bestowed on . college girl
before marriage. She usually
gets her final decree from
Reno.

Habits collected without ran-
som: Ernest Hemingway will prob
ably be that happy to know that
his cousin, Dick now in the
movies, who by process Of elimi-
nation has become Heming in
stead of Hemingway, considers
the brainstorms (novels) Of his
illustrious uncle too uninteresting
and cannot be bothered reading
them. George Cukor back in our
midst from England has lost 81
pounds and couldn't look better.
