tired. We 43-year- start of
like a ball of fire, but along about
the middle of the evening we dc
a lot of under the breath cussing
at the orchestra when it insists
on playing encore after encore
when we long to sit down and
rest. If we were younger we
wouldn't get tired. and if we were
enough older everyone would un-
derstand our WEAKNESS and insist
we take it easy.
My Trouble With Movies.
Even the movies are trouble
some to those of us at the aWk-
ward age. The first evening show
Is too early unless we hurry din
ner, which no 43er likes to do, ano
the second show keeps us from
getting to bed until midnight OF
whereabouts. and that's too late
unless it's a Saturday night.
Another bad thing about being
40 is the great amount OF repair
work that has to be done at this
time. Consider the teeth. They
have a habit of getting sore and
achy for apparently no reason
at all. Yet they are not trouble

publicity. can out-campaign the
colorless Governor, Frank Carl
son, who will be the Republican
nominee.
Republicans eager to establish
a Presidential combat post in the
Midwest against Senator Taft, are
attempting to arrange a spon-
taneous draft Of Milton Eisen-
hover, president Of the Kansas
State Agricultural College and
brother of the General, for the
Republican nomination for Gov
ernor. They see many virtues in
their plan.
Magic Name in Kansas.
One is that the Eisenhower
name is magic in Kansas and that
Republicans at this sad stage OF
their affairs must strengthen
their tickets wherever possible
Another Is that If the Generals
brother runs on Republican
ticket that will settle all this
troubles ome business about
whether the General is q Re-
publican or Democrat without the
General having to shout 1t from
the housetops.
They add rather absent-mind-
eddy that Milton Eisenhower is
qualified to be Governor. which is
true. 1t IS also true that he is a
progressive Republican who once

ture Department with Henry Wal

tee which revealed that about
one third of the families of the
country have incomes of $4,000
or less. They don't buy many fine
shirts or eat much caviar or drink
much champagne. nor do most
people in income groups above
them.
Real Story of Thrift.
As for thrift - the Treasury's
savings bonds division, savings
banks and life insurance COM
Fpanies might have q story here
that also would be interesting to
the General and might show that
we're not yet a Nation Of wastrels
and spendthrifts. In the tradi-
tional American way we are. of
course. constantly caught between
the tug of those who would sell
us their wares and those who
would have us save. +.
The good old days" always
have their nostalgia appeal. But
we are no longer the agricultural
Nation with small handicraft in
dustry of the LOG cabin and hard
cider" campaign days. We are q
Nation of great factories in which
millions perform their allotted
tasks at machines and 1t is a
complex system. no longer simple.
and 1t requires some concern
about the individual so he won t
be crushed in it. some projections
not formerly necessary, some Sc
curity, if you please.
It is. too, the greatest produc-
tive system in the world. The
General should know that better
than anyone else from the way 1t
supplied his needs during the war.
He praised that effort of a free
people. He should know. too, that
the boys who fought under him
showed the old virtues OF their
forefathers in other wars, despite
their liking for an occasional fine
shirt, or q taste of champagne.
They don't go much for caviar.
