Prominent at the same opening was

Even the children of the rich can't
escape them - for all their silver
spoons and golden high chairs.
The seven-year-old daughter of Holly

She, however sought out the birthday

TAKES, OF COURSE, are perpetual
thorn i'm the side of the wealthy. A
member of the class of 'l9 at Prince
ton had hard time persuading two
of his wealthiest classmates to join
him in promoting a new corporation
that he hoped would earn a fortune.
Both agreed the enterprise looked
good, but pointed out that, because of
taxes, it meant nothing more to them
than additional headaches.
~ know" agreed the promoter, but
you two are my oldest friends, and
wouldn't feel right about going into this
deal without you
"All right" agreed the wealthier of the
two reluctantly, "but one thing must be
distinctly understood in advance. If we
make the money you predict - you have
to keep it.
CHARITABLE WORKS for the idle
rich are something to worry about,
too. A bejeweled matron waddled out
of Claridge's Hotel in London where
she had been cavorting - and eating
all evening at de luxe charity ball.
AS she stepped into her Rolls beggar

lady recoiled. ''How much do you
