All over America and the northern
hemispheres the wind tends constant
ly to turn to the right. If it starts
from the north headed directly south
it becomes northeast wind. If it
starts as west wind, it becomes a
northwest wind. The reason: the
Earth rotating on it's axis turns the
cardinal points under the moving air.
Wedding originally meant wife
purchase. The WED" was the horses
or other valuables the bridegroom
game the father as security that he
would treat the daughter we'll. Giving
the bride away" started when fathers
openly sold their daughters into mat
rimony.
Bachelorhood was taxed as a lux
ury in the Is colonies, which placed
it in the same category as distilled
spirits, billiard tables and gaming
cards.

 tracted for Jail Work

The Ideal Chair Co.'S $75,000 suit against New Haven County, brought in 1929 when the county allegedly failed to supply the manufacturer with all the chairs made at the county jail, has been settled out of court.

The counter suit was brought for the county by States Attorney Samuel Hoyt of New Haven, charging that the company had never paid for merchandise delivered to it.

T>HE July issue Of Stage comes to
hand with . very considerable
proportion Of its pages de-
L voted to the movies. What,
asks Leonard Hall, in q leading ar
ticle, Is the chief export Of Holly
wood? Most Of us, he remarks, i'm
agine it to be motion pictures. But
we are mistaken. The greatest Hol-
lywood industry Is the manufacture
Of glamour"
Glamour" says Mr.. Hall, Gin the
mad or movie sense, is that quality
which can make mountains Of screen
appeal out Of molehills Of mere pref
tiness or less" And, he adds, "It is
manufactured Just as certainly rs Is
the quack of Donald Duck"
This presumptuous and gratui-
tous improving on the handiwork of
the Almighty" writes Mr.. Hall, has
been going on since the dawn Of
David Wark Grifith, but only in the
past decade has 1t risen to q major art
and industry.
sc" date it exactly, in fact,
from the arrival of Greta Garbo in
these unfriendly shores. In my
belief, the somnolent Scandinavian
was the first baby doll to be glamofized
in the modern Hollywood sense and
she remains to this day the out
standing product Of the art"
Miss Garbo, he says, was downright
homely when she first became o SUBJ
ject for the superimposition Of screen
charm. What that has made her is
history. But, according to Mr.. Hall,
the famous Sphinx keeps her "glam-
our" strictly a business matter.
while she is busy at her trade" Z"
he remarks, ''it Is applied every day,
like kalsomine TO . hen house. The
moment they let her out Of the cor
rail-, however, and she scuds OF to
Scandinavia as Gussie Berger or Susie
Glutz, she lets herself 60 all at once
dresses like an unemployed taxi driver
and allows her face and hair to re-
turn plumb to nature. AS q result,
the Garbo Of the screen and the
Greta of New York look like badly
matched twins. There is q faint fam
lily resemblance and no more"
THE same periodical carries an ar
ticle by Hilaire Belloc called The
Totalitarian State and the Arts" 1t
is. says Mr.. Belize, an answer to Vim
cent Sheean.
After examining the question from
both sides, Mr.. Belloc comes to the
conclusion that "despotic governments
will soon prove to be of the most
varied kind Despotism will not make
for q universal type; quite the other
way. 1t will make for very differ
ent results indeed according to the
despots themselves and the material
they work on"
He then compares the state of the
arts in the various countries now
undeS despotisms-Germany, Italy
and Russia. He approves of the Ital-
ian encouragement of artistic enter
prise, particularly in architecture.
Modern Italian building Is ma
jectic," he writes, "and modern PLAN
