Benny Fields, leaving a night club
table, left what I took to be a prodi-
gal tip on the table.
rs he always SO generous?" asked
the headwaiter.
oh, it isn't a matter of generosity.
Benny has had marvellous comeback
as an entertainer the last year. He
makes a good deal of money, and if
he didn't leave big tips people will
think he is a cheap-skate."
In other words the public demands
that it's idols become spendthrifts.
They must if they are in the lime
light, rent the premier suites in
hotels whether they want them or not.
They must ride about in $4,000 auto
mobiles even if they would prefer the
cheapest coupes. They must provide
themselves with princely retinues of
stooges, secretaries and Wallets, though
they would much prefer solitude.
Save money!" It was George Raft
speaking this time. "How can L?

TODAY'S YESTERDAYS

July 81, 1888 B. Cat a pass near
Issus, in Cilicia, 23-year-old Alexand-
er the CREEKS Macedonian Army met
Darius III and his 100000 Persian
followers, and utterly defeated them
in one of the great battles of history.
Darius, considering himself irwin
chile, went to hunt down the Macedo-
MAN invaders accompanied by his
harem, musicians, dancers and the
families of his officers. A sweeping
cavalry charge around Darius flank
led by Alexander himself, threw
these camp followers into panic and
put Darius whole army in flight.
Thousands were captured, including
the Persian king.
Alexander was magnanimOuS 20 the
conquered ruler; took to wife the
latter's daughter, Stateira, and en-
couraged his officers and soldiers to
marry PerSianS. In one mass cere-
mony, more than 10000 were wed!

ANSWERS

1. For the fiscal year ending June
30, 1885, the net collections of the gov
errors office amounted to SIS, 1853. so.
2. In 1889 when North Carolina ced-
ed her western territory now Tennes-
see, to the United States the State
reserved the right to grant land in
that territory to Revolutionary War
soldiers for their services About 12,-
100000 acres, about One-half of the
State of Tennessee, were granted I'M
der this agreement. Through escheat
rights the University of North Caro-
lima fell heir to much of this land
about 1920 the University began to
execute on these escheated claims
Their magnitude alarmed the Tennes-
see legislature and their execution
was stayed A compromise agreement
was reached by the University of N.
c. ceding 10000 acres to the Univer-
sity of Tennessee, and 10000 acres to
the University of Nashville.
3. The legislature of 1915 passed an
act which provided for the appoint
ment of commission by Governor
Craig. Only $4,000 was provided for
the work of the commission.
4. Roger Moore, following his broth
er, Maurice Moore, came from South
Carolina, in 1925 and settled on the
Cape Fear about fifteen miles below
the present City of Wilmington. From
the fact that he was very wealthy and
owned large number of slaves he
was called "King Roger"
5. Following the death of w. N.
Everett, Secretary of State, in 1928
Governor Mclean Immediately APP
pointed lMr. Hardness to fill the I'M
expired term. In the November cleo
tons, of that year, Mr.. Hardness was
elected to succeed himself He was de-
feated in the 1882 primary for the no
mination by Stacy w. Wade. He SER
we'd a few months over four years.
6. Lenior county. The claim from
that county, according to figures sub
mitted to the fact-finding commission.
amounts to $1,245, 496. Burke has the
smallest claim ST $50.
Henderson daily dispatch., 1936-07-27

give him Il dollar. IL Ia headwaiter
dusts Off my chair I've got to hand
him five. Oh, I've tried being sensible
about such things-and had hurri-
cane of criticism hurled at me-"
The same situation prevails in the
domain of sport-particularly golf, al
though 1t Is so well known it scarcely
requires REPETITION how, many hangers
on revolvc about successful prize
fighter, eating up his bankroll and
filling his ears with flattery as long
as he is on top. .-..t
When Gene Sarazcn won the open
tournaments on both sides of the
water in 1882, the sport gabbers let it
be known that the two victories
would be worth at least $25O,0OO to
him. He revealed to me in Florida
last winter that not only had the
quartermillion benefits failed to ma
terializc, but he had actually had to
go down into his own pocket to pay
for the big suites at hotels, dole out
munificent tips and catch the dinner
check every time group got togeth-
er and dealt him into the party.
Tony ManerO, the new golf champ,
for every dollar his eminence brings
him he must pass out $3.50 as the
reigning star. Actually he may make
$4,000 net for year or two. If he
has fetching radio voice he is sure
to get hold of that much.
Bob Ripley is the only celebrity
know who has been able to avoid most
of this sort of taxation without SEEM
ing mean. He tips sensibly and he en-
tertains generously, but few years
ago he decided that he was going to
stay within the bounds of reason
and so when efforts are made to sell
him whole floors in hotels, he has de-
veloped talent for lodging. But then
Rips celebrity is more firmly in
trenched and has a greater survival
Potentially than that of many sud-
den scaler of the heights. It isn't,
therefore, as easy to rush him and
turn his pockets inside out in the
first flush of his success.
