' Error: When her pet wire-haired
terrier d:ed she was doubly sad be
cause her means would not permit
her to give it a burial in the ceme
tery for pets at Hartsdale. A Brook
lyn friend, living in a house with a
backyard, solved her problem by of
fering a place for interment. So
she put the body of her pet, along
with flowers and tissue paper, in a
large box bearing the label of a
fashionable furrier, tied it securely
and took the subway. When she
came up the stairway with her bur
den at the station nearest her
friend's home, she was so pushed
and jostled that she was grateful
when a rather well-dressed young
man offered to carry the box for
her. With the box in his arms, he
preceded her up the stairway. At
the top. he made a break and dis
appeared down a side street. And
now* she's wondering what he
thought when he learned what he
had stolen.

Business: One of this depart
ment’s valued scouts, while out for
a stroll the other evening, saw a
youngster in knea breeches playing
a cigar-box violin in front of an
apartment. Presently a window
went up and a coin was tossed to
the lad. Ending his concert, he
went around the corner, took a
real violin out of a hiding place un
der steps and continued down the
street giving concerts at frequent
stops. This department’s scout, be
ing a good newspaper man, took
the matter up with the lad. The
boy explained thus: “The guy in
there’s a musician, see? He got
his start playin’ a cigar-box fiddle.
If I play on my good fiddle, he gives
me a dime, see? But if I play on
the box, he gives me a quarter. It’s
all here in the paper, see?” And
didn’t he produce a worn clipping
telling the story about the Viennese
violinist and conductor, Marek
Weber.

Occupation: Walter Witte, head
gardener at the Biltmore, has an
additional job these days. Recent
ly, the 18 veteran canaries that fur
nished music in the lobby were re
placed by new songsters. The new
comers took to their job so enthusi
astically that a way had to be de
vised to keep them from singing
their heads off or succumbing to the
current bronchial epidemic. So now
each night, sharp on the stroke of
midnight, Witte has to put the birds
to bed for a nine-hour sleep at the
end of which he wakes them by re
moving the covers from their cages.
And he doesn’t mind being called
a bird chambermaid either because
he likes canaries.

End Piece: The toast of Times
square, in a manner of speaking, is
a new sandwich known as the
“Chickadilly,” created by Ted Na
than, Dreier hotel chain executive.
Here is how it is made: Take
two slices of French cinnamon
bread toast and cover with sliced
breast of chicken. Top with a slice
of baked Virginia ham and velvety
melted American cheese. And I’ll
bet Judge Arthur Gordon of Detroit
will try this out at his first oppor
tunity just as I did his huckleberry

the common shark is now the basis
of a SIOO,OOO-a-year business con

shark product is the liver, which
contains oil rich in vitamin A. Last

lons of oil, in addition to fins for
soup and skins for leather; this
year’s catch may double that num
ber.
