Colclough was the speaker at the Thursday luncheon of the Strat- ford Rotary Club. Mr. Colclough was introduced to the meeting by T. J. Dolan. The subject of the address was the study of character, and Mr. Coiclough gave a talk which proved of intense interest to his listeners. Just to clear up a misunderstanding that seemed to prevail, the president of the club, R. A. Reid, Dr. Dave Smith and Donald Strudley all empha- sized. that no commission is being paid the Wing-ettes for the _ sale of Rotary Frolic tickets. The impression which seemed to have become fairly general was that a substantial com- mission was being paid on _ these ticket sales. The explanation is that the Wing- etteS had intended to bring a group of entertainers here from the Royal Air Force School of Navigation at Port Albert, about the middle of Oc- tober, for the purpose of raising money to buy equipment which will cost about $200. The Rotary Club requested that the program be presented in connection with the annual Frolic, and, in turn, promised to assist in the purchase of equipment needed by the Wing-ettes. A young farmhand visited London to spend a holiday with a relative. His clothing being decidedly rustic in appearance, his host suggested that he should get.a suit from a city tailor, to which the young man agreed. "What about a small deposit, sir?" asked the tailor when measurements had been taken. "Just as you like," replied the other. "Pyt one on if they're fashionable."

But Bed- ford outdid himself not long ago. He thought that his office would run along a little more smoothly if he had a telephone switchboard. So he had one installed. But Bedford found that the switchboard kept his secre- tary so busy that she didn't have time to type his letters. The switchboard has been removed and things are run- ning with clocklike precision now. Everything went smoothly at a ceremony they had in Galveston, Texas, last night--but it's a wonder. Two victims of hay fever defied the fates by allowing crowns of ragweed to be placed on their heads. They were crowned king and queen of Gal- veston's fourth annual hay fever car- nival. And there wasn't a single ker- choo! The Galveston Chamber of Commerce will tell you proudly that Galveston is entirely pollen-free each autumn, Well, Mrs. Charles W. Stone, of Indianapolis, Indiana, was named the prettiest sneezer in the colony of hay fever victims. Her king was Thomas Ray, of Oklahoma. The royal couple were attended by a duke and duchess. A score of others got honorable mention awards--dry hand- kerchiefs. Galveston knows how to throw a party. We're all pretty well agreed that the mechanical age is here to stay. You WEEKLY MIRRORGRAMS~ may be surprised to know that the horse and the mule are still with us, too, and play an important part in the new army. The proof of this comes in the form of a bill for $79,000 for supplying horses and mules in United States army posts in the 9th. Corps area. The same_ scrupulous care is given to the diet of the horses and mules as to the soldiers. Nothing but the best. Most of the army marches like any army is supposed to march -- afoot -- but part of it still rides in the saddle. Rack up one for old Dobbin. Old Dobbin cooperates with the rest of the army. But a General with the First Army in the war games in the Carolinas finds himself -- cooperating with himself. He is Brigadier Gen- eral John A. Crane. In addition to commanding the 13th Field Artillery, General Crane must act as Corps Ar- tillery Officer in the absence of Col- onel Bernard R. Payton, who has been appointed an umpire director. So the situation is this: General Crane writes the artillery part of the corps order, then he executes his own orders as commander of the Artillery Brigade. Crane may be confronted with the unusual problem of writing himself a letter of commendation in the event one of his prescribed mis- sions is accomplished. It would be his duty, it is pointed out, and Crane says he's a pretty good letter writer.
