SIR WINSTON'S 80TH
ON TUESDAY Of this week The Right Honorable Si
Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill, Prime Minister q
Great Britain celebrated his 8Oth birthday.
ANY ATTEMPT Is write about Sir Win

ANY ATTEMPT to write about Sir Winston IS OF nee
essity difficult He occupies the center Of the worlds stage,
and undoubtedly the world would have been very different
without his having played the leading role in its sWirlng
and turbulent drama, particularly during the past decade.
And the difficulty IS heightenend BY the mere fact that what
ever IS to be- said about the man has been said most eo-
quently by the man himself.
THROUGHOUT the free world. leaders and followers,
great voices and little voices were raised in tribute to the
man who for nearly go years served his eountry-and the
world.

SIR WINSTON served under

Edward VIII, George VI, and Queen Elizabeth i, A des=
cendant Of the Duke Of Marlborough, he occupied every
post Of Importance IN the British empire, rising to his great:
est height during the dark days Of Dunkirk and the Bitz-
keig, when he uttered his now famous words, ! have moth
ing to offer but blood, toll tears and sweat
AMONG HIS l4O-odd honors the most unusual was
highthood in The Order Of the Garter, an honor bestowed
on but 4 commoners il 800 years Of British history.
HISTORIANS and close observers Of events agree that
Sir Winston's greatest achievement which places him IN 9
unique role IS the fact that he not only makes history, but
records in his own inimitable way that history which he
makes. 1t is therefore accurate, fresh, and done with q clarity
and significance not possible under different circumstances.
EVERYBODY everywhere wishes for Sir Winston many
years Of sublime peace and satisfaction, and the qualification
IF knowing that a job well done was his contribution to the
British empire and to history itself.

Dear Miss Ball:
My. husbands work takes him

and club meetings. Many times 4

girl friends or other couples, but
now and then the affair requires
an escort. On one such occasion,
asked a mutual acquaintance to
escort me and from the looks and
remarks of the women, you would
have thought I'd just committed
murder
Was this so wrong? My husband
knew about it in advance.
Ellen, Ohio.
Dear Ellen:
Many people Give" on gossip and
scandal and seeing you without
your husband made them antici-
pate coming pleasure. AS you ex-
plain the situation, there is nothing
wrong with being escorted by
mutual friend. However, the first
step should be a clear understand
ing with your husband. Know his
feelings on the matter and the men
of whom he approves.
You know, of course, that the
entire thing depends upon the
trust you have in each other and
upon your actions in public. Carry
yourself so that there will be no
doubt that you love your husband,
miss him and that your escort is
just a Stand-in.

who considers no adversary too
formidable for him to buck. 1t will
be recalled that during World War
II, when he refused to comply with
War Labor Board decision, resist
ing the government efforts to
take over his Chicago plant, he
was carried out of his office bodily.
The fight between these two
evenly-matched opponents empha-
sizes the fact that America is in
deed a land of opportunity. 1t
seems one only has to know what
to do with it, and il he has the
business acumen to parlay a $4,000
loan into a vast financial empire,
there is nothing to stop him. This
is certainly contrary to the popu-
aarly expressed belief that the
wealth of this country is confined
to a favored few. Ali of the bust
neSseS in America have been guilty
from small beginners. Vast depart
ment stores have grown from
pushcarts; fabulous fortunes have
grown from small initial invest
mentS; huge industrial plants
have developed from tniy labora-
tories.
The great wealth of this country
may be controlled by a small circle,
but the Wolfson story clearly dem
Onstrates that the circle is not

Straight
Ahead
BY OLIVE A. ADAMS

NEW YORK, When
We were children, growing up in
a suburban community, Montgom-
cry Ward was one OF the institu-
tons we looked upon as if it were
the Rock of Gibralter. We never
thought of it as belonging to any
body or even being run by any
body. 1t just seemed to have al
ways been there.
We wonder if it could ever have
seemed that way to Louis Wolfson,
son of a Russian immigrant junk
dealer, who, at the writing has
succeeded in cornering a goodly
amount of the corporations stock
and seems determined to get the
controlling interest in the vast
mail order house.
Reading the accounts of this
struggle between Louis Wolfson
and the aged but vital Sowell
Avery, one cannot help but be i'm
pressed with the fact that this is
a typically American story. It
could happen nowhere else in the
world. In fact, Mr.. Wolfson's whole
success story is American.
We understand he began his fa-
bulOus business career modeStly in
1882 when he borrowed $4,000 on
his life insurance and organized the
Florida Pipe and Supply Company.
This was a period when there
was a great deal of wildcat drilling
around Jacksonville, and in the
first year sales amounted to $780,
900 In 1914, they exceeded 8 mil
lion. At the end of World War II,
Wolfson sold the company at a
profit of $21a million.
The business world has watched
the meteoric rise of this 42-year-oid
induStrialist who has succeeded in
securing the controlling interest
in several of this country's most
outstanding businesses, with assets
in excess of 5000 million.
On the other hand, there is Mr.
Avery, who has been chairman of
the board of Montgomery Ward
for nearly a quarter of a century
has ruled it with an iron hand,
and has shown himself on more
than one occasion to be a fighter

Why Grow Old?
Reading in Bed? Watch Out
For Posture, Eye Damage

should be certain that they have
adequate lighting, although
every woman ought to be careful
about this.
A few days ago I wrote about
correct lighting generally. When
you read in bed you can use
wall lamp or table lamp or
fluorescent lighting running
across the width of the bed.
Be sure that the bulb does not
shine in your eyes. Do not use
strong spotlight for reading or
just one light of any kind. The
room should have general light
ing with special emphasis on the
printed page. Be sure that the
wall lamp or table lamps are
close enough. The light for read
ing should not be more than "a
inches away. Place the wall
lamp so that it is no further
removed than this and does not
shine directly into your eyes.
Also don't try to read by a 40
or so watt bulb.
If 1t is your habit to read in
bed, you must consider the ef-
fects on posture. I am thinking
Of your neckline. Night after
night. year. after year, with the
head ducked into the neck will
create deep lines on the neck
and lead to a dowager's hump.
Try to arrange your pillows so
that this will not happen. A
backrest is wonderful idea. 1t
is almost as restful to lounge
against one of these as it is to
lie down. and your neckline will
thank you with better looks.
If you already have a dow
ayers hump at the back of your
neck, you might like to have my
leaf1et concerning that defect. If
so, send stamped, self-ad-
dressed envelope with your re-
quest for leaf1et No. II, Dow
ayers Hump" to Josephine Low

Detroit concert had foreseen and
arranged everything. The boys
were met. fed, entertained. fed

Episcopal Cathedral In time to
present to q capacity audience
of 1900 an q Capella concert
of % works by l6 composers
ranging in time from the 18th
century to the present year.
No one comes to Detroit with
ont the secret or open desire to
see an automobile made. Cars
are not ordinarily manufactured
on Saturday, but one of the
sponsors, Mrs. Edsel B. Ford. ar
ranged at the last minute with
her son, Henry, to have his plant
opened and an assembly line put
in operation by 500 men. It was
an historic moment for the boys.
The Very Rev. Francis B.
Sayre, jr.. dean of the Washing
ton Cathedral. told guests Of a
luncheon, given for him and Mr..
Galloway at the Detroit Club by
Frederick Ford, Alexander Wei
ner and Charles Crousen, Of the
Cathedral's ambition to add a
fifth educational institution to
Beauvoir School. the National
Cathedral School for Girls, st.
Adams and the College Of
Preachers.
The College of Church Musi-
clans, a blueprint for which has
been evolved by a group of lead
ing American musicians to pro-
vide training in composition,
organ playing, choir conducting.
and the organization Of service
music for all aspiring church
musicians without regard to reli-
gious denomination, needs at
present only a sizable gift Of
money to become an actuality.
Dean Sayre's Dream.
The purpose of the current
tour of the choir is twofold-to
make known by example the
artistry Of existing church sing
ers, composers and conductors.
and to disseminate Dean Sayre's
dream Of his new school.
No object lesson could have

by Byrd. Palestrina, Vaughan
Williams. Gustav Hoist, Peter
Warlock and others. The concert
concluded with a first perform
ance of five Songs Of the Ma
tivity" by the young New York
composer, John la Montaine.
To the other masters Of st.
Adams School the boys of the
choir are pupils who have college
boards to pass. To Mr.. Galloway
they are an instrument with
which he has to make music. He
treats them as adults and offers
no concessions in the demands
he makes on them. The boys
are both fiattered and moved.
They respond with music that
today is unsurpassed in its field.

troit enjoyed today will be re-
peated in Cleveland tomorrow,
