“Anyone who cannot learn to
drive an automobile in three
weeks ought. never to be allow-
ed on the road." she claims.
Any mention of the accepted
belief that women are inclined
to become confused in an
'emergency is met by Lulu A.

“men are just as bad."

He had bcon‘a guest with others

close some one begged him to play
Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsody No. 2.
“l‘ve played it two or three

it's pretty late. Don't you think 1
might disturb the neighbors?"
"I hope you will," announced the

Just the moment you apply Men-

noted skin specialist. This sulphur

place.
Because of its germ-destroying

Mack and other up-Slaters. it was
learned today. None of.the con~
force: would commit himself. how-
ever.
The chairman of the new com-
mltce will be manager of the pre-
convention campaign in behalf of
the Governor. and a. decision on this
selection will be announced before
Gov. Smith goes back to the cap-
ital. Once back at Albany the Gov-
ernor will face an accumulation of
official duties that will keep him
hard at work. For example. in the
next two days the Governor must
hold twenty-two hearings on various
bills before him. and altogether he
must act. on hundreds of bills with-
in the next IOIIIKhI. The pressure
of Work consequently. would deprive
him of time in which,to take the
political helm himself.
The Governor makes no secret of
the fact that ho mints to have this
question of a preconventlon commit-
tee and chairman settled prior to
his departure tomorrow. '
