Kimg Eagle Goes Hunting By Thornton W. The fundamental law Appears as predatory strife ~King Eagle King Eagle had started out from his home on the Great Mountain to hunt for food. Now, as you all know, King Fagle is like Reddy Fox and Old Man Coyote and Hooty the Owl and most of Hawk family, meat of one kind or another. Therefore, he is a hunter. He must be. And he is a wonderful hunter or he could not live to the great age he does live to. Those broad wings of King Eagle's can carry him a great dis tance.

One can always look at Lola Wil- Hlams, his blond secretary, and that makes time pass quite rapidly. One can even talk about the weather with Miss Williams, if he likes. Btrangely encugh, Lesides being the most beautiful blond on Capitol Hill, the lady is also remarkably ef- ficlent. Inasmuch as Curt has been majority leader in the Senate, with more important work than most acnators, she had to be. Curtis weuldn't trade her for anyone you might name, “Every week,” says he, “I get letters from people thanking me for the fine treatment she has given them. 8he knows how ta rcceive and entertain people and under- stands (he duties of a secretary as well as anyone I ever knew.” Drives Them Around Outside the Senate office building is parked Lola's car. When Kan- sans, strange in Washington, come to the office, she often drives them to the White House or elsewhere. Curtis is too busy to show the home folks the town, so he thinks that's pretty nice. Mighty few shc- retarles like that one! Sitting in the car with Miss Wil- llams, few persons would miss the senator, “Haven't had a complaint about her management of the office in cight years,” says the senator, with enthusiasm. “She's wonderfully efficient,” ‘The Curtis office is the busiest on the hill. Other office forces can loa? during the summer, but not Miss Williams and her staff. The mail is bigger than ever now that Benator Charlie's a national candi- date, Miss Willlams is down in the morning by 7:30. The senator comes in at 8:30 in having all the mail opened that time. Often she works nights. Hard work s good for little girls, Miss Willlams insists. But she hunts, fishes and motors and is one of Wahington's best women golfers. She was born in Columbus, Kas. ‘While she was a little girl she entered business. First she col- lected accounts for her father. One debtor kept stalling. Finally little Lola began to get vegetables from him from time to time and sell them till the debt was squared. There's & struin of Iowa blood in Miss Williams. When she was 14 and found ahc had earned and saved considerable money, she took a trip to California—just to travel. Her mother was horn in Iowa. Be- fore finishing high school, Lola had been to California three times. Bhe began to contemplate a Eu- ropean trip. She and another girl put in a crop of potatoes on her father's land and sold them from door to deor. But not enough for a European trip. Along came a newspaper sub- acription contest and the prize was a trip to England and Scotland. She entered and won. The potato money took her uver to the con- tinent, ‘While atill in high school she won another prize—a diamond ring for her debating ability. Came as a Clerk She worked in a lawyer's ofifce and when the war broke out passed a civil service examination and came to Washington as a clerk in the aviation service. Curtls found her there in 1920 and has had her ever since. 3 Boon she may be secretary to $he vice president, g job now held by a man, At the recent Kansas City cenvention she was one of the most active Curtis supporters and had charge of the Curtis headquarters. Senator Curtis recalls that when he first came to Congress from Kansas in 1893 there were about two women secretaries on the Hill The senatorial secretarics now include !5 women and House sccre. taries are too many to count. Wi men have generally replaced the male clerks on the Hill. JEWELED BIRD HEADS Paria, July 24.

Of course one might say it is not important because no one save the lone announcer see me. But to myself it is imperative that I am well groomed. “An inappropriate gown or a soiled pair of gloves would under- mine my confidence in what I am saying. The radio is a very sen- sitive medium and would transmit the least inflection of embarrass- ment or self deprecation to the au- dience.” The education of women in the home through the radio is the dream which has inspired Mrs. Haskin to abandon her social round and work 11 to 12 hours a day to perfect lectures on modern child psychology, art, travel, in- terior decoration, music and gar- dening. Having traveled all over the world she is able to give first hand information on the marts of the world, the old masters, folk lore in India, women's problems in SOClE.TY_ TAKESTHE ARR' 1 no| k ow SME GEYS A THRILL ovT oF BROADCASTING Mrs. Helen Coghill S.
