ms WFAtCr got INC SuEpFASc
Of his life when his wife
started talking like Socrates
- and making sense, too!
A GOOD many years ago knew Yale
"A student who was much impressed with
the fame that came to people who managed
to get their names tackled onto some univer-
sal law such az Newton's Law, Gresham's
Law or Boyle's Law. He said he was going
to study hard. and observe things closely,
and produce such a law before he graduated.
So my friend applied himself diligently
and in due course came up with Zahner's
Law (his name was Louis Zahner), which
read: eff you play with anything long
enough, it'll break" to which his room
mate, Morris Hadley. appended Hadley's
Corollary to Zahner's Law: ''But even if
it breaks, there's still something you can
do with it. -
After heard about Zahner's Law, I
became obseased with desire to emulate
him, and after continuous examination of
the world and its ways over a prolonged
interval, ] at last enunciated Aliens Law,
as follows: Everything is more compli-
Gated than it looks to most people" This
seemed to me to apply neatly to those
problems, IN business and government and
so forth, that look very simple until you
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1954-01-24

have to tackle them, and then reveal
entanglements that the people who make
speeches about them haven't even dreamed
Of / sat back well pleased with myself.
But then my wife, IN turn, also saw the
great light of Zahnerism; and when abe
produced Agnes Aliens Law, I realized,
not only that we had all been outdistanced,
but that at one stroke human wisdom had
been advanced to an unprecedented degree.
Here II announce it with suitable humil-
ity = is Agnes Aliens Law:
almost anything is easier to get into
than to get out o."
HERE is law which applies equally well
to marriage and to the back seat of an
automobile. 1t should be craven on the
hearts Of people who are invited to serve
on committees, who are sent contracts to
sign, who are thinking of acquiring dog,
who are cajoled by group of cordial
friends into having periodic reunions, or
who contemplate amatory attachments. I
see world full of people who are paying
through the nose for enthusiasms to which
they succumbed without realizing that the
exit from their predicament would be go
much harder to find than the entrance.
Move over, Zahner; move over, Allen;
make place among the philosophers of
our day for Agnes Allen, propounder of the
great truth that almost anything is easier
to get into than to get out of.

F00T-S0RE. There's one thing you can
be sure of about the beautiful girls on
our cover - they all made their stage
entrances on their right feet. If they
hadn't, they would have evoked sud-
den blast from their fiery boss, John
Murray Anderson, fabulous producer of
the current hit revue, almanac.
Charles d. Rice, whose "Uncle Broad
way" on Page 8 tells about Anderson's
amazing career, says any girl - dancer,
singer or showgirl - who makes an
entrance on the left foot is in for bis
tering. Some years ago, Anderson staged
a circus musical called Jumbo" and he
was driven nearly crazy because the
star elephant kept coming in on the
wrong foot!
EXCEPTION. A Connecticut old-timer
we've heard about confronted his
church's new minister one Sunday and
said, THAT was fine sermon" I'm
glad you liked it, " replied the minister,
land how is everything at your homer"
MY wife and have been married AZ
years - and we've only had one quarrel
since our wedding day." Good, good!"
exclaimed the minister. 'Of course"
said the old-timer, NOW and then it's
interrupted when one of us is away from

TWONYEARS OLD
TO-DAY RADIO Station WIvI is two years old.
CONGRATULATIONS 4

RADIO HAS become perhaps the principal means of
communicating ideas. It reaches where practically no other
method can, and it WalopS a punch almost unknown to other
methods. It is a source of education and enlightenment, of
amusement, and in these critical days, it stands ready to warn
entire communities Of what is happening elsewhere and Of
any impending danger.
THE DICTATORSHIP nations have been most. dis
tmbed about the Voice Of America because it is so difficult
to cut off completely the penetration by the ether of the iron
curtain. To rule that no radios may be owned and operated
by the subject peoples would at one and the same time cut
off the dctators method of reaching great masses. Yet,
because of the very nature Of radio, even with all the jam
ming, by the Russians, I'll S not quite possible to seal off every
town, village, city and coutry.
Jul w RADIO station here, WIVI, was the result
of a dream. With a small population, perhaps what may be
considered little business to which to turn for commercial
support, and no national hook-up, yet owners stuck to their
dream Of having a station, and despite many obstacles Station
WIVI became a reality.
MUCH improvement has been noted over the past year.
Yet there is much to be made, and with the proper coopera-
ton and understanding from the population, Improvements
Dil be made. Perhaps a period for classic music in which the
old masters are introduced, perhaps a chidrens hour where
the fantasy Of well told tales could be woven around educa-
ton points, perhaps these and many other improvements are
in store. 1t will take time but we are sure that Mrs. Hazel
Wickers, who has worked SO hard and so long, assisted by her
tireless assistant, Raymond Higdon, will continue to scale
even higher heights.
AVIS joins the thousands Of listeners Of Station
WIVI in wishing it much success for the years to come.
There is much to be done, but the will to do is present, and

become lazy and will employ almost any
stratagem to avoid moving about on his own
two legs. But we learn from reader that Mr..
Wylie's complaint is an old one. The reader
quotes from newspaper editorial, circa 1870,
which bemoans the transition from stages to
horse-cars in San Francisco as follows:
1T is hardly too much to say that the
modern horse-car is among the most indis-
pensable conditions of metropolitan growth.
In these days of fashionable effeminacy and
flabby feebleness, which never walks when it
can ride, the horse-car virtually fixes the
ultimate limits of suburban growth"
