she watched Joyce Slyly. studying

her that she had never met Mr..

Mrs. O'Hara bounced on her part

1t was small fun, Joyce thought
presently, to take Il sea trip Just
for this opportunity of sitting IN
doors and playing cards with IL
ritablc women. And she made up
her mind that she would be in

Dick would be walking the deck,

they may spoil in store. Eggs
are a perishable product. In order
to keep their quality, they must
be Kept in cool place Strictly
fresh eggs in a window which IS
warmed by the sun will not stay

WASHINGTON of course. knows all
about DR.. Lauretta Kress who
lives in Takoma Park and holds one
of the highest records In medicine, but
apparently Coronet thinks that the
Nation as a whole, has not heard OF
her, for Coronet. in its August issue,
publishes her picture and brief ac-
count of her career in its feature.
Portfolio Of Personalities" Others in
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1938-08-07

the portfolio are Loire Brophy. the
only employment placement executive
to work in Jobs Of $4,000 up; Apache
Hardy, tattoo artist; Helen Ressler,
whose hands are the ones you see in
the nail polish ads, and Ubert Urqu-
hart, who has the strangest profession
of which the reviewer has ever heard.
Oh, yes, DR.. Kresss medical record is
this-she has delivered 4,149 babies in
43 years and never lost mother
Anyway, those are Coronet's figures.
\ ND what is Ubert Urquhart's pro-
fess!on? This is what Coronet
says: He makes fake books-imitation
volumes containing no reading mat
ter. While it might take SIT, 900 worth
of books to give large house an air
of rich erudition, Urquhart will simu-
late luxuriously bound books at $3.50
a foot. His clientele includes private
individuals, hotels. department stores
and theatrical productions. The Har-
ward Classics are most popular, main
" because its publishers cooperate for
advertising purposes. People don't
often stipulate authors or their works,
being chiefly interested in the books
appearance. 49,"
Well, the reviewer had heard Of that,
but she never quite believed it before.
But here, in Coronet, is Mr.. Urquhart,s
picture. He used to be piano sales
man, says the story, and now Is trying
to simulate" piano which won't
make music. but will just look like
piano which would make music.
OF course, in his book making. If he
ever got client whom he did not
like, and the client was one Of those
who did not "stipulate" titles or au-
thors, Mr.. Urquhart could do little
private revenge right then and there.
He could send along some beautiful
copies of Shakespeare Essays, James
Farley's Utopia Morris Fishbein's
Anatomy of Melancholy" and Father
Devine's Paradise Lost" That might
be fun. If Mr.. Urquhart is one of
these quiet subtle fellows who like his
private gloat-but that non-musical
piano-one doubts it. There's nothing
particularly subtle about that.
ONE wonders where the authors Of
these Simulated" volumes come
in What about royalties? There is a
case for bright young lawyers. If Mr..
Ubert Urquhart takes a title that is
copyrighted and uses also the publish
er's imprint, to say nothing of the
authors name, it would seem that he
is infringing on something-maybet the
pastures of the moon. But surely any
author has grounds to resent having
a block of wood sold as his book A
sinister sort of business, certainly.
But. when one thinks about it. it
certainly does have possibilities. 1.-THE
