LIFE
at Its Best
BY RAY BEALS

This is the season Of stock
taking and goal-setting. Of course
by this time many of our New
Years resolutions have already
been broken, and many a cynic has
said, "Why bother to make reso-
lutions, anyhow Well, why
should we set up goals or ideals
when we know that it will be diff
fcult if not impossible to live up
to them?
Personally, l think it is very
important for us to keep before
ourselves a goal or an ideal that
is higher than we have been able
to attain. Otherwise we are cas-
lily satisfied with a low level of
achievement. A worthy ideal,
whether expressed in the form of
New Years resolution or not,
saves us from complacency and
fills us with what someone has
called divine discomfort" which
keeps us growing.
A few years ago when Frank
Lloyd Wright, the architect, un-
yelled the model for a new build
ing, the Modern Gallery for Non
Objective Painting, he said in an
interview that public rooms should
have ceilings not more than twelve
feet high, SO that people will not
feel insignificant" When col
umnist Dorothy Thompson read
that, she was moved OF write
something that makes good New
Years reading Said she:
"The G. |. Joes / saw standing
awe stricken in the great nave of
Salisbury Cathedral, or watching
the robed procession in Canter-
bury slowly climb the vast flight
of stairs which leads from nave
to altar, or kneeling under the
lofty arches of Notre Dame de
Paris, or gazing with saddened,
awe-struck eyes at the wreckage
of st. Michael's in Munich, or
staring upward, in st. Peters, at
Michaelangelo's immense dome,
were not feeling insignificant.
On the contrary, they were real
izing that life had grandeur,
beauty and significance above and
beyond themselves in which, new
ertheless, they could share; the
recognition did not demean but
expanded them, not in self-satis-
faction, but in esteem for the pos
sibilities in human achievement.
The terrible heresy . lis that
everything must be keyed down to
(man's) understanding, lest he get
an 'inferiority complex En-
erson did not advocate twelve
foot ceiling, but said, Hitch your
wagon to a star He knew that
the wagon would never reach the
stars; but the height to which a
man ascends is commensurate to
his ambition: set his ceiling at
twelve feet and eventually he Will
be living underground"

Genoa Worker Is

Burke.
One Democratic committeeman
asked the congressman why the
recommendation of the central
committee had not been followed.
Mr.. Burke declared that he had
not received such an endorsement,
and Chairman Jack Boysen arose
to sustain the congressman, Boy
sen saying it was his own error
of omission that the endorsement
had not been conveyed to the con-
gressman.
After concluding his remarks on
the postmaster situation, Con-
gressman Burke discussed Wash
ington issues, speaking out against
punitive taxation, voicing his will
ingness to try the Brannan farm
plan, and expressing his belief
that the armed services unification
bill was working out satisfactorily
and equitably to the services.
Representative Robert Reider,
Jack Boysen who served as toast
master, and Cy Franck and Nick
Stevens, who served as hosts also
spoke on the program, cautioning
the guests against the divide and
conquer" political strategy which
they said was being used in the
Port Clinton postmastership case.
While the dinner ended in good
Democratic spirit, it was impos-
sble to determine the groups
reaction to the Kinney issue as
those present realized that they
were invited as guests rather than

quantities of milk and cycles at

races.
AS bicycle racing is the most
popular sport in France, Miss SUIT
cliffe spends much time in that
country. Races are held each
Sunday in Paris, and the bicycle
tour of France is so widely ac-
claimed that work stops as the
riders travel through the coun-
tryside.
Girls have never been permit
ted in the gruelling cross-country
tour, but this fall smaller tour
has been planned for the girls
and Margaret Sutcliffe will be
back in France in hopes of be-
coming the winner of the first
such venture.
Miss Sutcliffe is in America
with troupe of worldfamous
racers, including Ia girls and Ia
men. She is the only English girl
in the troupe, as the others are
French.
The local visitor owns four BIZ
cycles, two are speeding cycles,
one is road bike for training
purposes and the fourth is the
motor-pac cycle which has
small front wheels and is danger
GUS to ride.
Two good friends of Miss SUIT
cliffe were killed last fall during
motor-paced races in France.
They were thrown when front
tires burst. The drivers are high
ly paid because of the dangers in-
volved on the almost vertically
banked tracks and the national
popularity of the sport.
While Margaret has been a pro-
fessional racer for three years,
she is also a graduate physical
therapist. She has suffered num-
erous injuries during her racing
career, including fractured
breastbone in Montreal.
Planning to leave here this
weekend, Miss Sutcliffe will COM
pete in races in Chicago, Brook
lyn and New York before return
! ing to Europe.

If the photograph is Miss Dal-
bert's, or Mile" one should say
Washington viii be a better place
to live today than it was yester-
day. The evidence is quite con-
elusive that the photograph is
Mile. Dalbert's.
The covering memo-although
covering" is more the idiom than
the right word - speaks quite
agreeably about Mile. Dalbert.
Among the things it says, the
most interesting is:
Suzanne was born in Paris
where her father was banker
After graduating (this is a free
translation from the French for
being graduated'') from the Lycee
Victor Duruy, a fashionable
French school she went to Louis
Jouvet and told him she wanted
to act. The famous French actor
was then conducting a dramatic
school and Suzanne had hopes OF
being accepted for his classes. In
stead Jouvet invited her to join
a troupe he was organizing to tour
South Africa"
This is not all it says about
Suzanne Dalbert in the memo, but
a man stops right there to think
a moment about Jouvet.
There he was an actor, running
a drama school. Probably every
day he was approached by beauti-
full French girls who wanted to
learn to act. He had to say Mon"
to them by the dozens, sometimes
varying it with "Mais Non" This
was sad but business is business
and when a drama school is full,
what is a man to do. Jouvet or
anyone else?
Then came the day when Mile.
Dalbert arrived. Maybe the others
were just as pretty. but 'cest la vie,
were they bankers daughters?
So, Jouvet did not ask her to go
to school. He gave her a job right
away. So would you if you were
an actor who knew the social util-
ity of bankers. So would we.
OF course, it may not have been
like this at all. Whether it was
or not, it is something to think
