SIDELIGHTS By MARCY B. DARNALL. Former Editor of The Key West Citizen Hopeful that beer will becorse a legi- timate article of commerce in t..c near future, the United States Brewers’ Academy in New York has re-opened with a class of 30 pupils. The institution was established 50 years ago by Anton Schwartz, a famous Austrian chemist, and before the advent of national prohibition was supported by many leading bréwérs, including Pabst, Busch, Ehret, Doelger and others. The course offered is for professionals only, and not for amateur home brewers. It should be gratifying to intelligent Americans that Albert Einstein, “over- shadowing genius of his age,” will shortly come to the faculty of Princeton University as a resident member of its Institute for Advanced Study. A New York newspaper wonders whether we can keep him here un- less a way may be found to supply him with the good German beer to which he is ac- customed, Mrs. Bessie Smolen of Chicago has sus- picions that her husband is something of a fout-flusher. Two years ago he left home saying hé was going, over Niagara Falls in a barrel. Mrs. Smolen has been watching the papers ever since for news of his feat, but in vail Now she is tired of waiting and wants a divorce. Someone connected with an hide out after the following paragraph ap- peared in an account of the Ladies’ Aid Society meeting: “Following the musical program, Mts. J. T. Miller read an article on ‘Personal Devils.’ Seventeen were pres- ent.” Another joke about two Trishmen: Callahan says to O'Farrell, “You're a fool.’ O'Farrell retorts, “You're drunk.” Callahan admits the charge, saying: “Yes, but tomorrow I'll be sober and you'll still be a fool.” Compared with Sayeda Amra of Cairo, | Egypt, our Ameriean bigamists are mere pikers. Amra martied 36 wives in 12 years, and wife No. 36 has had him ar-} rested for forging divorce papers. Recounting the feats of women avia- tors, a recent writer reminds us that the first woman airplane pilot in the world was Harriet Quimby, who obtained her license in 1912.
