SANTA MONICA, CALIF.— Every time the heirs to an i undivided estate start litigat | ing, I think of a decision which had in it more wisdom, more common sense and more fairness than even King Solomon’s inspired justice. I can’t remember whether ’twas a ruler upon the throne or a judge Irvin S. Cobb upon the bench who handed down this ruling. But two brothers fell out over a proper divi sion of their father’s possessions. Accord ingly, they carried the dispute to a higher court of the land. So his majesty, or his worship, or his honor, as the case may have been. said: ‘‘Let the older brother apportion the property into w'hat he regards as two equal shares —and then let the younger brother have first choice of the shares.” But, of course, the lawyers couldn’t have favored the plan. It was too beautifully simple to suit any lawyer in any age. The Ameri can Bar association would just nat urally despise it. • • • Cemetery Salesmen. {RECEIVED a letter from one of our plushiest cemeteries. We have some of the plushiest ceme teries on earth; it’s a positive pleas ure to be dead out here. I was urged to invest in a highly desirable lot, for only a few thou sand smackers; or buy a perfectly lovely crypt—slightly more expen sive, but most luxurious. Through some private whim or pique, I failed to answer this tempt ing communication. Today I re ceived an appealing follow-up let ter. I gather that, if I neglect this splendid opportunity, I’ll live to re gret it. Or maybe I won’t. Such thoughtful attention merits response. I’m replying as follows: ‘‘Dear gents: Space in a grave yard is the last thing I shall require. When that time comes, somebody else will do the shopping. Trusting these few lines may find you the same, yours gratefully.” But if a representative calls in person—as he will—l’m a gone gos ling. Those slick talkers always do get me. You just ought to see my collection of oil stocks. Now, there’s something that does need burying. • • • Making Juleps. SOME disputatious soul seeks to reopen the ancient debate over the proper recipe for mint julep. I decline the invitation. Since the Dred Scot decision nothing has stirred up as much bitter contro versy south of the Ohio river. North of the Ohio river doesn’t count. The Yankee conception of a julep is calculated to make a host of sleeping Kentucky brigadiers rise up from their respective Bourbon casks and start giving the rebel hiss. Naturally, the only perfect julep is the Paducah julep. Just drop in next summer and sample the real product on its native heath—not at a saloon, where the bartender is likely to have heretical ideas, such as using preserved fruits and even putting the sugar syrup in first, which amounts to downright crime -but in the private home. • • • Western Superiority. IN BORNEO, tigers slay such an incredible host of natives that the yearly mortality is proportionately almost one-tenth as great as the average number of persons who will be wiped out in traffic fatalities on American highways during any giv en 12 months. In India, owing to the refusal of those benighted Hindus to destroy any living creature, 20,000 inhabi tants annually are killed by venom ous serpents, whereas, in this coun try, in 1936, we spent only 15 billions for crime, or 18 times as much as we spent on national defense, yet managed to let many poisonous hu man snakes go free to build up mur der statistics. In Japan, geisha girls are govern mentally licensed and protected, which is indeed an affront to the principles of an enlightened people who patronize so-called world’s fairs that are dependent on unabashed nudity for popular favor, and shows dependent on foul lines and nasty situations. IRVIN S. COBB. Copyright.—WNU Service. Marriage Customs in Japan The Japanese live more as mem bers of families than individuals. That is to say, every Japanese is under the moral obligation to per petuate the family line inherited from his ancestors. The only son must take a wife; he cannot “be come a husband”, in other words, he takes his w’ife to his home and she shares with him the name of his an cestors. The only daughter, on the other hand, must take a husband to the home of her fathers and share with him her family name. Home Heating y Uintc By John Barclay - V a 1111 Iv Mooting Expert C'REQUENTLY I get complaints * from home-owners about fail ure of steam or hot water heatmg systems to keep radiators com pletely hot. This condition is often due to air being in the coils of the radiator. This air must be released before the coils can fill with steam. Tbis usually is simple, being remedied by automatic air valves. If your ! radiator has such valves and the radiators remain air-bound, un screw the little plug at the top of the valve, tightening ttie plug again when all the air escapes from the valves. Putting the vent valves for a few hours in a con tainer of kerosene also helps to eliminate the air. * However, if neither of these op erations corrects the trouble—or should the coils fill with water—it would be a good policy to have an expert check the valves and ; remedy the difficulty. It is possible also for hot water radiators to become air-choked. To overcome this, open the air valves once in awhile with a valve key and leave them open until water starts flowing from them. Be sure to have something handy in which to catch the water when the valves are opened. A Litile Learning Is a Wonderful Tiling Many stories, some true, some —well, not quite so true, are told about the remarks of schoolboys. A well - known headmaster vouches for the accuracy of this I one. • A certain twelve-year-old was about to be caned for some trivial offense. The headmaster asked him how he preferred to receive his punishment. “Well, sir,” said the boy quick ly, “if you please, I’d like it like the Greek style of penmanship.” “What on earth do you mean?” asked the master. “Please, sir, the upstrokes heavy and the downstrokes light.” A Three Days’ Cough Is Your Danger Signal No matter how many medicines you have tried for your cough, chest cold, or bronchial irritation, you can get relief now with Creomulsion.
