KNEW LINDBERGH SIR.
IN HOME TOWN

This article is in reference to the
name of Charles A. Lindbe-gh dis
cussed in The Times Forum of Jan.
"a. The Minnesota highway COM
missioners have large signboard
erected in front of the August Lind
bergh homestead on No. 3 highway
one mile west of Melrose, Mimi,
announcing that August Lindbergh.
grandfather of Charles A. Lind
bergh who flew to Paris, settled
there in 1861, coming direct from
Malmo, Sweden.
My father settled in Melrose in
1869 and I was born there in 1871.
We were neighbors of the Lind
bergh family many years. The
writer worked with Charles A. Lind
bergh ST., while he was earning
money to pay his expenses through
the University of Michigan at Ann
Arbor.
After graduating he practiced law
at st. Cloud. Mimi, one year. He
later moved to Little Falls, was
elected prosecutor of that county
and served five terms in Congress.

Squaring
The Circle
With
THE HOOSIER EDITOR

PRoF1LE:
= She is 76 years old, my infor-
mant tells me, and has lived alone
on farm near Boonville for the
last Is years since her husband
died. Mostly she is alone with her
livestock, among which is a COW
named Buttercup and turkey hen
named Esther.
In one room there are IS hens,
each one named, and they have
more or less taken it over. Butter
cup has one room to herself. The
third room belongs to the woman
to her and her two cats, to Esther
and to IL young chickens.
My informant says each member
of the oddly assorted family knows
its own name. They are, more or
less, in constant touch with one
another because there are no doors
between the rooms.
In her own room-if one can so
identify 1.-THE woman has chair,
a cooking stove, few boxes and a
folding bed, She has turned the
bed over to the II young chicks and
she sleeps sitting in her chair. They
appreciate that, and do lot of
overtime roosting, just to please her.
TINE lady is healthy in spite of
u her age, and declares she ex-
poets to live longer than her father
did, which was Sc going on 81.
She says she speaks almost all
the time with the spirits, and
through them keeps in touch with
her deceased relatives and friends.
She asked the spirits recently, for
goodness sake, to bring about a
mild winter, but the spirits told her
they didn't have anything to do
with climate. They didn't, either.
For years Warrick County Off
Gals have decided each fall that
she should be removed to the War
rick County Infirmary, but each
time she pleads nationally and, ear
nestly to be allowed to stay at her
home with her animals, and they
always let her.
She says she will be lonesome
with lot of people around.

from giggling because her glance
always travelled back to me and
fingered. A giggle in the very
proper atmosphere Of a classroom
is a catching commodity and it
wasn't long before two or three
others began to smoker. In three
minutes an epidemic Of giggles and
smokers had broken loose, which
became singularly UNfunny when
the teacher announced that we would
all march back after school and
spend a half-hour studying the
why's and wherefores of history.
Gosh dang it, even in college
get the giggles at the most UN-
USUAL times. Right in the mid
die of convocation when some dis
tinguished visiting speaker is
goin' to town on the economic ills
of the world, fer instance.

ANS.:-Yes, I see you will Sc

Personalities
By Nell DOdsOu

In my jaunts around the coun-
try / have a way of forming
friendships with people who are
chronic letter writer's. They write
well and they always have some
thing worth while to say. A bit
of philosophy peeping out of a
letter is always a pleasant discov-
cry. From a lad in summer school
in Michigan comes the letter con-
tanning this observation about a
love affair of his that broke up sud-
denly: at was like being on the
high end of a see-saw and having
the other person get off suddenly
You know what I mean, a h..
of a letdown." Quite appropriate.
don't you think?

HERE AND THERE: In spite
of newspaper assurances there is
a rumor that Kid Reed won't be
able to take the bandages off his
hand until September 8, one day
before practice opens. William
G. Still, Negro composer, has
signed up with Columbia motion
picture studios out Hollywood
way. :. The cullud track athletes
have walked off with everything
except the stadium over at the
Olympics and if Herr Hitler doesn't
nail that down he's liable to wake
up one morning and find Jesse
Owens has it in his pocket and is
toting it back to the U. S. A. for
a trophy. A food of congratu-
lations to Jimmy and Laura Mae
Oliver for getting tied up in the
good old-fashioned manner. :.
Bud Kelly's concern over Sue Scott
the day they had the minor auto
smash proved that well, that
things are pretty serious some
where along the line. I gave
some Of the Minneapolis fellers
a chance to tell frankly what they
thought was ailing the gels around
the two towns and the best they
could do was: "fickle and untrust-
worthy" Haw! Jimmy Griffin
brings some interesting tales from
the West Coast. Especially tales
of Seattle. c. E. Rucker, back
from Los Angeles, says that the
Negroes out there appear to be
doing right we'll for themselves
in an economic way. My pop
threatens to have our telephone
taken out unless some of you
males quit calling up at such weird
hours of the night. A Sight

Dolores Johnson writes and wants
to know why the dickens some of
you folks don't drop her a line.
SEE she'll be back in September.
Wednesday afternoon down in
the loop / met up with lad who
used to go to Junior High school
with Bill Thomas and myself. We
recalled that day in a history class
when he and Bill passed a note
around saying: Everyone drop
your books, pencils and pens at
two o'clock sharp" This was to
irk a poor substitute teacher who
had charge of the class for the
day. At two o'clock on the dot
everyone in the class showed their
books off their desks-except Bill
and his fellow conspirator. After
the commotion died down, those
two were sitting with their heads
in their books, looking very stu
dious and VERY innocent. I got
awful tickled. Gals in Junior High
get tickled on the slightest provo
cation and so I followed true to
form by beginning to tee-hee away.
The teacher, poor woman, having
had time to recover her wits,
was cycling the class suspiciously.
I suppose I must have been as
red as a ripe tomato in the face

wives and sweethearts are giving
at the Sterling Club, Friday, and
the tennis tournament Sunday,
Aug. 9. From what I've heard,
it seems as if everyone is going to
be at the tournament. This
JOE PATTERSON from Tennessee
State College, who is spending the
summer in st. Paul, can really
dance. He'd give Bill Robinson
some competition if he had the
chance. I think RUTH SUIT
TON has, the loveliest smile. :.
Saw JIMMY GRIFFIN in st. Paul
the other night and he was in such
a grand rush, mumbling something
about "only one more minute"
Upon asking him what he was
talking about he said, zone minute
before Jimmy Lunceford's band
comes on the air." So all we kids
trucked on over to his house and
danced round and round to the
music. KATHERINE ALLEN
certainly is a nifty little dancer.
Well, I'll have to be hurrying
along to get my tennis racket
ready for the tournament.
Your friend,

HOLLYWOOD, July 3.-Sheer
gossip. Very interesting, Douglas
Fairbanks, jr.'s, plans for the fu-
ture. He is no longer interested in
being an actor, and when ne gives
his histrionics back to the Indians,
he will remain solely as a producer
Of pictures. AS a matter of fact,
the only reason that he acted in
the last two he produced was that
the glamour of his name got him
the financial backing, with the
provision that he appear in the
pictures himself. Now that he has
gotten rich from the returns OF
same, he will produce on his own
hook, entirely sans his own appear
ance.
Topping the mass Of muscle
which is Max Schmeling is brain.
He bought the European rights to
the fight pictures which feature
his blotto-ing Joe Louis and took
them home with him to Germany
on the Hindenburg. He will net
in excess of 100000 from his bril-
liant move.
Sylvia Sidney, who has now been
set for a leading role in the pic
ture version of "WinterSe t."
turned the same part down when
it was presented on the stage, be-
cause she didn't feel it would be
fitting to her histrionic ability.
Mrs. Enrico Caruso has given
permission to a European movie
firm to do a picture based on her
late husbands life. What is more,

|they will dub in his actual singing
voice from records which he made.
Now, Just who will play Caruso is
the big problem in casting at the
moment.
Frank McHugh, about to give
out of his comicalities in Three
Men on a Horse" has devised a
wonderful little antidote for all the
Hollywood professional jokesters,
led with such vicious efficiency by
Vince Barnett. It is very delect-
able and tasty-looking taffy, the
base of which is a tasteleSs soap,
so, when one of Mr.. McHugh'S S
victims accepts a goodie, he in
Stantly starts frothing at the
mouth. Some fun, eh kid?
While at Columbia, Ronald Col
man and Frank Capra will have
an anniversary party in honor of
Lost Horizon" on July 9. That
will be the Tooth day the picture
will have been in production and,
as Mr.. Colman has worked every
single day, they feel they should
do something extra-special about
it. Incidentally, the picture to
date has cost $1,500,000, which is
about 10 times what Messer Cohn
usually spends on his pictures.
