Columnists everywhere are over-do- ing that famous Winchell crack “Gone With the Windsor.” And some of them carelessly forget the quotes.

As a matter of fact we think the Italian dictator thinks very well of himself. Successful tests of a “sunburnometer” have been announced by Chicago’s North- western University. This is a recording device measuring the ultra-violet rays, which is the health-giving light that pro- vides vitamin D in the skin. It will now be possible to know what section of the country is richest in sunburning sunlight _,and that will provoke disputes galore, LIMITED SECURITY Among the many new laws passed with good intentions, but which will peony ably prove disappointing in the long run, | is the Social Security Act, which politicians | have painted in such glowing colors. After reaching the age of 65 very few workers will draw a pension amount- ing to more than $25 or $830 a month, while many will draw even less. The very | highest amount anyone can draw, after working 45 years at good wages, is $85 a month. So while these benefits will be of some help to the aged, the operation of the new law by no means culminates the necessity for private thrift if one is to live in any degree of comfort after reaching 65. The new law will require anothet army of government employes in its ad- ministration, and it is said it will take some 50 acres of office space for the filing of the employees’ record cards by the fed- eral government alone. The overhead ex- pense of operating the system is bound to be enormous. Already plans for amending the law by the next session of Congress are being made, and no one knows, of course, what finally may be-evolved. ~ The sociat security-program-may have some merit, but it is yet 49 hegproved, and that. will take ma (year vent, workets should eeu SAO? hope for real security inthéir' ole age Will 'de- | pe’ s it has in tHe PASE bffon their own 4bility and williagwess to save volun- tarily than upon any prospective benefits from government old age pensions. | SIDELIGSETS By MARCY B. DARNALL, Former Editor of The Key West Citizen New Orleans police recently charged that one W. C. Anderson, who said he was a Tennessee sheriff, displayed tempera- mental peculiarities on the street, includ- ing disturbing the peace using profane language, reviling the police, resisting ar- rest, tearing an officer’s uniform and re- fusing to pay a taxi bill. With these minor exceptions, Mr. Anderson seemed to be a pretty good fellow. Someone connected with an Iowa newspaper probably found it expedient to hide out after the following appeared in an account of a meeting of the Ladies’ Aid Society: “Following the musical pro- gram, Mrs. J. T. Miller read an article on ‘Personal Devils.’ Seventeen were pres- ent.” li | ' Another joke, probably quite ancient, | about two Irishmen: Callahan says to} O'Farrell, “You're a fool.” O’Farrell re- torts, “You’re drunk.” Callahan admits the charge, saying: ‘Yes, but tomorrow I'll be sober and you'll still be a fool.” Don Zimmer, Jacob Zimmer, 61, Fero sisters, all o: a. ‘owa, wih is his, father’s bro sin Jaw, as well as being brothey-in-l p wife.

Phil had no diffi- culty in making it in one jump. The Mennonite Board of Missions has notified the government that members of that sect will not accept benefits under the Social Security Act, although they’ will they will take care of their own poor. What peculiar people! Fifteen years ago a woman employee placed a penny @n a desk in the San An- tonio city jail “just to see how long it would stay there,” and she hasn’t found out yet. The penny is still there. Dr. Paul Witty of Northwestern Uni- versity has completed an 8-year study of how Americans spend their leisure time, and doesn’t think they spend it very profitably.
