Diet Bugaboo

His secretary looked very for
lorn.
TOO bad, sir" he murmured.
"A wonderful woman, your wife.
A very wonderful woman"
Van Astor nodded.
you're right, MilbankS. She
is a wonderful woman. But
she'd be ever so much more Won
derful if she only had a little
common sense"
His secretary maintained a
discreet silence. This was no
spot for a salaried man to make
any cracks.
do you know what brought
on this illness?" Van Astor went
on. Dieting! Yes. sir-that
and nothing else. She's As years
old and she wants to be a
chicken. So she diets.
And what happens? I'll tell
you what happens, Milbanks.
She becomes i'll. Desperately
i'll. She requires nurses and doc
tors and specialists who must
fight to save her life. And all
because"-he strung the words
out as though he hated the very
sound-"all because she wanted
to go on a diet.
Women are crazy, Milbanks.
All of them"
It was shortly after $50 p. m.
when Mr.. Van Astor arrived at
his palatial tripleX apartment
on Park Avenue. Buffers and
Wallets fell over themselves in an
attempt to earn their salaries.
Mr.. Van Astor gazed gloomily
at the head butler.
"Ackerman," he said, "how is
my wife,"
The other man sighed.
mot we'll, SIR" he replied.
'Not well at all. She is doing
now, but she spent very rest
less day, sir"
Il suppose so," observed Van
Astor. She's sick woman,
Ackerman. She'll be a sick
woman for long time. And all
because of an internal diet.

The butler had heard the
same speech many times before.
Begging your pardon, sir"
he interrupted, "but will you
dine now? Dinner has been
ready for some time"
Mr.. Van AStor arose.
Yes, Alderman. I will dine
at once. And you might send
for that day nurse to keep me
company. Miss Williams, I be-
lieve her name is. Tell her I
wish her to dine with me-"
The butler raised his eye
brows.
do I understand you cor
rectly, Sir?" he inquired. You
wish the day nurse to dine with
you?"
That's what I said, Acker-
man." returned Van Astor
Grossly. "She's a sensible
woman. Knows what it's all
about. Send for her"
Hope for Best
In five minutes, Mr.. Van
Astor and the nurse were din

a tall woman with searching

Proves Mob Instability

Probably the chief teaching Of this
lesson arises out of this contrast
and it's emphasis upon the inSta-
bility of the mob.
The greatest need of the man who
would discern true values, and who
would always see things Alright, is
TO get that sense of discriminating
judgment that is not swayed merely
by outward events or by inward pas
sions and emotions.
When we can observe some man
who is subject to abuse and con-
tumely, and can find in him some
element of goodness that bigotry
and prejudice have failed to see,
we have put reason above the sway
of passion and ignoble influence, and
have come into the realm of moral
values.
Il is not so easy to attain this as
would appear on the surface. 1t
is, in fact, the hardest way of life,
and it demands life's sternest and
most supreme discipline. Fortunately
we have the discipline and the pow
er of Christ to help us attain to
spiritual discernment.
The man who is truly Of the
Christian spirit brings to life a sort
of touchStone, in which the spirit
of Christ in others is revealed. He
can see in the prophet who is
spurned and denounced and perse-
cuted the true man of God, if God
indeed be there.
1t is easy to throw our palm
branches in the way, but it is more
difficult in the hour of Calvary to
be able to discern the living Christ
in the dying victim of human
cruelty.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1934-05-05

or the man who is acclaimed as the
very savior of his nation today was
harried and driven by the mob, but
a few years earlier.
In our own day we have seen
rather notable example in the rise
to power in England, during the
war period of David Lloyd George,
although in another war, the war
of England against the Beers. Lloyd
George was the object Of the ven-
geance of a mob, which threatened
even to hang him.

ODD PLATFORM
is OFFERED BY
lARRABEE FOE
Primary Rival Would Give
$1,000 to Each of the
Unemployed.
BY DANIEL NJ. KIDNEY
Times staff Writer

Washington, May 5-Dr William
H. Larrabee, eleventh district Indi-
ana congressman, was being warned
today to look out for his scalp in
the primary,
For HooSierS here have received
a copy of what might be termed the
perfect platform" from one of the
contestants opposing the doctor in
his home district
Bert Wilhelm, Wanamaker. Ind.
is the name of the gentleman and
he labels himself an old Hickory
Democrat"
Has Four Point Platform
The platform proper embraces
four points-money, wages, the
New Deal and appointments-and
Mr., Wilhelm leads to them by
preamble which contains the fol-
owing opening paragraph:
Il maintain that we must work
out and adopt a permanent nation
al program to produce wealth
enough to provide all necessities.
some luXuries and fund to pay
interest charges and reduce debts.
or we must continue to mortgage
the future"
This is followed by the suggestion
that the unemployed be supplied
with $4,000 each and be set up as
farmers. Here it is;
The $4,000 will buy five acres Of
land and provide a neat, we'll built
cottage, small barn, COW, twelve
chickens and ample seed. 1t will
prepare the land and take care of
family of five for four months.
FavOrS Sound Money
THE money we spent to take
care of the needy in the Eleventh
district of Indiana in 1888 would
build 1000 of these houses and sup
ply home for 10000 people and
make them self-supporting.
Construction of these homes will
give employment to 1000 building
mechanics for six months and dis
tribute enough money through
their pay rolls among the business
houses of the district to compare
with the years of so-called pros
perity."
Then Mr.. Wilhelm takes up his
four points. He says he is an advo-
cate of sound money and plenty
of it" and points out that the only
trouble with credit is interest"
Il believe in high wages, he con-
tinues If we adopt a thirty-two
hour week, I am in favor of a
dollar an hour as the minimum
wage to be paid to productive
labor 1 am also in favor of giving
women the same W ~es as men for
equal work"
