The TipOf on Tips

T NEVER quite believed the old Sunday supplement
- stories which asked to believe that New York
walters in first class places not only got pay but
actually bought their appointments for as much as
$1,000 payable to the management the captain in
weekly installments, and still were able to get
wealthy on their tips alone But I am sure that
they get much bigger tips than the hackmen because
the hackman'S standard tip is about a dime for
short haul whereas any who left dime for a
waiter in the Waldorf, the Park Lane or any such
place, would be a ball player, and a ball player
wouldn't frequent such hotels.
The United States internal revenue once cupped
an ear to the story that walters made adult sums of
money and sent some agents around to the old
Waldorf Astoria to if there was any taxable
income which was not being reported according to
law. The walters with the best posts we're called
into a room, one at time, and questioned but the
best the revenue agents could get out of them was
that some days they made little money some DAYS
more and, on very good days, quite lot But as to
whether their tips amounted to 81 a day or SIS or
S25 the walters would only say sometimes" and the
inquiry was total loss to the United States treasury
Even so, can understand that waiter serving
caviar at 1925 spoonful, followed by English sole
IN casserole with grapes, at $2.25 copy and the
small tenderoin at 1925, and so forth not forget
ting one or more quarts of wine at So might fall
to thinking that if things like that with some
people In these days then things ought to be at
least little better with him.

It's Different With Taxi Drivers

Out the extremes meet when a hack driven bv
- man who has to keep grinding twelve hours a.
day in heavy traffic, haraSSed by necessity and traf-
nc cops, picks up job which has Just laid down
for dinner as much as the driver can hope to make
In week, and carries it few blocks to collect 35
cents on his meter and maybe dime and rarely a.
quarter over the top. He is out among the weather
which may be neighboring and he may have
pad cold getting along toward bronchitis or pneu-
monla. The hickman does not live in a garden
apartment and the conditions at home on $40 a
week or less are likely to be such that the CLINT of
diamonds and the sight of mink and sable in the
back of his cab will set him to wondering and feel
ing very sorry for his wife and children and him
self.
1 don not need tell that the people who send
their money in by the hunk in New York even
though they spend it pleasure and selfshness
at least are keeping money in action and that that
is better way to do than to tie it I'D in ribbon and
lock it in a box
But 1 am dealing with a reality of life in the
Spend1ngest city on earth and the hackman would
be very dumb if he didn't see the contrast between
himself and the people in the back seat both nicely
aWash and wine who are going to give him maybe
as much as the price of two bottles of milk if he
drives very carefully.
1t is a good thing that the miners and steel
workers. when they have their strikes, have them
out IN mean, bleak surroundings where the best the
menu offers at the elite coffee pot is T-bone steak
% cents They are rough impulsive people and they
might get very rough and impusive if they were in
the position Of the New York hackman.

Your Health
by DR.. MORRIS FIsHBEIN +:

nNE Of the mysteries relating to your health is
" the operation of the gall bladder
This organ lies on the lower surface of the liver,
on the right side of your body 1t contains bile or
gall, which comes to it from the liver and it dis
tributes this material into the intestines
Apparently, various substances are taken out of
the gall bladder by the blood including water some
calcium bile salts, and pigments
Bacteria may get from the gall bladder into the
blood or from the blood into the gall bladder
Dye substances have been discovered which, when
injected into the body, get into the gall bladder and
permit the taking Of Xray pictures which show the
presence of stones.
NTHEN the bile from the liver, it is con-
w centrated by the gall bladder, the water and
some Of the salts being absorbed. At various in
tervals the gall bladder contracts and empties its
contents into tube and through this tube into the
inteStines.
During these contractions of the gall bladder
any stones that are present may be observed to
move Obviously, the contraction of the gall bladder
might cause a stone to move into the tube. IT.
then, the stone not pass through, great pain
results sometimes with secondary Inflammation and
Infection leading eventually to operation on the ga
bladder.
If the material collects in the gall bladder and
can not get out, great pressure within the gall bad
der occurs, and this also causes severe pain.
THE taking Of certain food substances and indeed
l. various emotional factors at times may cause
evacuation Of the gall bladder. This is particularly
the when taking fats.
When fats are given by mouth or by tube d.
rectly into the bowel the gall bladder Is evacuated
This is peculiarly function of the fat rather than
of the OIL since olive oil will produce this reaction,
but liquid petroleum. or mineral oil will not.
Surgical operation has established the fact that
it is possible to get along without gall bladder.
and in many instances this operation has been done
for the relief of Inflammation the presence Of stones.

He joined the navy and served
a six-year hitch. He was trained
at Newport News and was men,
Der of the crew of the battleship
Missouri, one of the ships in the
fleet which sailed around the
world under Fighting Bob" Evans.
While helping place the battle
ship North Dakota in shape for
the cruise, an explosion occurred
and Lee received minor injuries.
He recovered in time to make the
trip around the world. The cruise
took two years and seven months.
Lee was scarcely out of the navy
when the World war broke out. He
enlisted in the army and served
nineteen months in France.
His service in the navy and the
army built him a powerful ply
sique which he has maintained
since by active participation in
bowling, hunting and fishing. He
was bowling over in Pennsylvania
when Jimmy Smith, now the
worlds champion bowler, was set
ting up pins.

In the summer time he makes
contacts with every game warden
in the state and once week turns
over his daily column to reports
on the fishing sport from the game
wardenS.
His sense of humor never de-
serts him and he can always be
depended upon to put somebody
on the griddle during the week for
some prize fish tale.

You'd think the world had come
to an end. But the other side Of
the story is Mrs. Faust's smile
of satisfaction, not only at her
husband recovering rapidly, but
at having him home.

In 1929, just after the compile

the ball game at Washington

He got his bearings and cut
loose. He rolled a "300"-a perfect
game-the first over Mr.. Pritch-

Where's JESSE" asked Lefty.
AT the ball park" some one
answered.
So out to the ball park went Mr..
Faust, beaming wisely. At the
park he hunted out Mr.. Pritchett.
Say, JESS" said Lefty. "You
ought to put up a prize for a per-
feet score down at your alleys.
All the boys would come in and
take a crack at it. Why don't
you?"

But bowling, Lefty admits, is his

DUT this date in your date book
Il -Paramount'S movie version
of Alice In Wonderland" opens
at the Apollo, Friday, Feb. 16.
This answers hundreds of let
tiers, personal inquiries, and tele-
phone calls regarding the definite
date of the opening of this really
great picture.

sociations of this city, civic lead
erS, the motion picture commit
tee of the indianapolis Branch of
the American Association of Uni

erS and hundreds of individuals
are interested in this movie.
Several groups are urging par
entS to read Alice in Wonder
land" and Through the Looking
Glass" to their children if they
are not familiar with it.
This movement is not only city,
wide, but national. 1t is most en-
couraging when a great literary
achievement of more than sew
enty years of success behind it,
receives the voluntary support
that Alice in Wonderland" is re-
ceiving.
Too many exceptional stage
and screen productions have not
been enjoyed by sufficient people.
Public interest in the better and
worthwhile productions Of stage
and screen will make possible the
continuance of such productions

mittee of the local branch of

lowing statement:

versity Women, after previewing
Paramount'S Alice in Wonder
land at a preliminary showing at

mously recommended this pic
ture. without reservations. as
real contribution to cinema art
that deserves a cordial reception
in indianapolis.
The screen adaptation of
Lewis CAROLS masterpiece of
nonsense presented great problems
to match great possibilities. First
Of all. Alice in Wonderland and
Through the Looking Glass had
to be telescoped into one script.
The chief problem in present.
ing these two stories was to in
terrelate their incidents so clever
ly that they would flow into each
other smoothly. The selection
of picturesque and significant
phases from the large mass of
material required care.
The abSurdities have all been
tucked into the screen version in
a vivid, delightful way that salts
fies. not only children, but also
adults for whom the mysterious,
fantastic charm OF Alice mas al
ways held a real significance.
Moreover the producers have
been truthful, adding no fictitious
details in an effort to heighten
the appeal.
Artist John Tenniels familiar
characters have been faithfully
copied and the audience is both
entertained and startled to hear

weird looking humans
Your own memories of these
time-honored favorites may need
no refreshing said Mrs. A. D.
Lange, chairman of the commit
tee, but if your children are not
familiar with Alice and the Mad
Halter and the Duchess, by all
means read the stories again with
them and then take them to see
the picture. 1t will seem to them
that the characters have literally
come to life out of the printed
pageS."
