That little incident was recalled when the “Hon, Jack” came out the other day with his bristling denunciation of Republicans for what he termed trying to take credit for legislation thus far inaugurated in Congress to relieve the economic ills of the country. In the old days, when Garner was the fighting leader of the Democrats on the floor of the House, he was tremendously fond of indulging in a practice which he called “hellgebiting.” “Hellgebiting” is defined in the Gar- ner dictionary as “a rough and tumble now confined to formal statements or | more or less dignified utterances in his o | conferences with newspaper men. But that doesn't mean that he has forgotten how or that his thrusts now are any the less sharp. Any one who read his statement the other day, in | which he belabored Republican orators who he said have undertaken to “‘glorify” the President because of the vital legis- lation that has had bipartisan support .| in_Congress, can readily see that.

BUT. alas and alack, the ideal home is almost as rarely seen as hens’ teeth and there is nothing about the average marriage to make any single woman with a good job feel that she has missed the best thing in life. The trouble with the woman who doesn't marry is that ap- parently it never enters her head that by any possibility she might have missed drawing the capital prize in the matrimonial lottery. No matter what the other women she knows have, she is sure that if she had married she would have a husband who would be a compendium of all masculine charms and virtues He would be the perfect lover and would never weary of telling her how wonderful and beautiful she was. He would never be grumpy and grouchy. He would be sunshine in the house. He would never be stingy She wouldn't be poor and hard-worked because her husband would be a go-getter who would give her strings of pearls and limousines.
