Capricious Old Manhattan Will
Have a New Favorite This Year
When Music Halls Bulge for
Vicente Escudero
New York — Manhattan, like
aome capricious old monarch, seeks
a new favorite each season.
And the world, aware of this,
hunts down its most promising ex
ponents of the esthetic, the revolu
tionary and the dazzling. For Nev;
York c an be a most genera us poten
tate rewarding its favorites with
gold and applause and national rec
ognition.
Last year it was Mary Wigman,
the German creator of a new school
of dance. The year before it was
La Argentina, the amazing Spanish
dancer. Then it was Segovia, the
guitar virtuoso; again it was Ra
que) Meller.
Nor does Gotham cast aside
tjuickly those upon whom it has
smiled. For many years they enjoy
the big town's favors. Frau Wigman
packs the halls this year even as
she did last. And Segovia or Ar
gentina, can still crowd Carnegie
Hall.
But meet the 1932 favorite—al
though he has not yet landed on
these shores! The fanfare is ready;
the echoes from abroad have been
allowed to sound in the 'proper
places.”
His name is Vicente Escudero.
and he is a Spanish dancer with
a background lar more colorful
and romantic than most. For sev
eral years he has been a pet of
Paris. American tourists have al
ready made Ms acquaintance and
□escribe his dancing as the most
virile of male solo work; his cas
tanet and finger snapping execu
tions, his rhythms and foot work
ai, spectacular.
Escudero is a gypsy son of the
AIRCRAFT VALUE
Washington-According to a re
port of the aeronautics branch of
the commerce department, aircraft
equipment produced in the United
States in 1930, both military and
civil, was valued at $61,000,000. About
$34,545,000 of this amount went for
construction of heavier-than-air
planes.
COPS PLAY MAIDS
Loe Angeles—Burly poiice offi

part of a lady’s persona) maid when
they were called upon to make an
alibi.I on a disturbance report. They
Granada hills. Like many a great
artist, the streets of his home city
were the training school. At the
age ot eight he had discovered
that the metal tops of manholes
were resonant first-aids to a lad
trying out those heel-taps sc es
sential to the Spanish dance.
When he was nine, cops were
chasing him off the streets; as po
lice are accustomed to do with
precocious gamins the world over.
But his efforts had not gone
unnoticed by other and cider
street performers. And so, when
little more than nine. Esc.itiero
was off through the countrysides o!
Spain, a wandering gypsy with a
troup of nomadic performers.
They drifted into villages on
I fete days; they danced at fiestas
and fairs and existed by passing the
hat. The day came when this im
plication of beggary began to both
er the growing youth. One day,
j asked to pass the hat he rebelled
He was too proud. A fight ensued,
and swinging on a tormentor Escu
dero bade farewell to Ins vagabond
companions. He returned to Gran
ada, and now he could appear in
the music halls.
After some years, he made his
way to Paris and took a modest
studio in the Montparnasse section.
While appearing in the music halls,
he also improved his technique.
The legend goes that the studio
in which he has spent many
years has holes in the floor, testi
monials of endless practice at heel
tapping. He has refused to have
them mended and although great
, fame has come to him, Eetudero
has preferred to remain there.
One of his innovations was the
usee of castinets made of various
metals. This, of course, was an
idea inspired by his days of tapping
against manhole tops. He made
I clappers of silver, copper, brass,
found the party to be a lady. Not
only that, but, in addition to being
a lady, she was very well dressed in
a pair of slippers and a string of
beads. The officers had to dress
her before they could arrest her
lor drunkenness.

American Culture
I should like to meet In every Euro
pean country women ns truly culti
vated ns those whom I have seen in
the grent colleges of the eastern
T’nited States—at Bryn Mawr, nt
Vassar and at Smith.
My students nt Princeton were ca
pable of following Intelligently a lec
ture In French, and their reading
was wide. To rend the output of
the younger American authors is to
be convinced that it could not be the
expression of an uncultured people.
A novelist such ns Hemingway, by
Ms taste and his restraint, heralds a
grent epoch. A critic like Edmund
Wilson would do honor to any
French or English review.
The tone of the best magazines in
dicates a true taste for ideas. It
might be answered that these mnga
eines address themselves only to a
small minority of highbrows, and
that the rest are vulgar. But Is not
that true of all countries?
For my part, I think, like my fel
low countryman, Paul Mornnd, that
wo shall have difficulty in saving our
western civilization during the next
few decades, but that one of its sanc
tuaries, along with Paris, London
and some of the grent European uni
versities, will be the rocky Islets of
Manhattan.—Andre Maurois in the
London Morning Post.
Dorothy’s Mother
Proves Claim
Children don’t or
dinarily take to med
icines but here's one
that all of them
love. Perhaps It
shouldn’t be called
a medicine at all.
It’s more like a rich,
r '•» i concentrated iooa.
It’s pure, wholesome, sweet to the
taste and sweet in your child’s little
etomach. It builds up and strength
ens weak, puny, underweight chil
dren, makes them eat heartily, brings
the roses back to their cheeks,
makes them playful, energetic, full
cf life. And no bilious, headachy,
constipated, feverish, fretful baby or
child ever failed to respond to the
gentle Influence of California Fig
Syrup on their little bowels. It starts
lazy bowels quick, cleans them out
thoroughly, tones and strengthens
them so they continue to act nor
mally, of their own accord.
Millions of mothers know about
California Fig Syrup from experi
ence. A Western mother, Mrs. J. G.
Moore, 110 Cliff Ave., San Antonio,
Texas, says: “California Fig Syrup
Is certainly all that’s claimed for it.
I have proved that with my little
Dorothy. She was a bottle baby and
very delicate. Her bowels were
weak. I started her on Fig Syrup
when she was a few months old and
It regulated her, quick. I have used
it with her ever since for colds and
every little set-back and her wonder
ful condition tells better than words
how it helps.”
Don’t be imposed on. See that the
Fig Syrup you buy bears the name,
“California’’ so you’ll get the genu
ine, famous for 50 years.
Romantic Cipher
Some years ago a clever American
professor was asked by a young lady
for a cipher that could be easily
worked out without being too diflicult
to read, whereupon he penned the
following:
u o a 0, but I 0 U;
O 0 no 0, but O 0 me;
O let not my 0 a 0 go.
But give 0 0 I 0 U so.
When the key to tills is obtained it
lilts like a love song. The secret of
It lies in the facts that a naught is
a cipher and that It is easy to make
this word "sigh for” whenever re
quired. It reads phonetically with
perfect ease, but the written form is
perhaps more readily intelligible:
Tou sigh for a cipher, but I sigh for
you;
O sigh for no cipher, but O sigh for
me,
O let not my sigh for a cipher go,
But give sigh lor sigh, for X sigh for
you so.

Cold Insurance
He carries it with him, ready for just such times. That
little box of Baver Aspirin. If he catches cold, what of jt?
| Bayer Aspirin will stop it. If his throat feels sore, he will
end the soreness with one good gargle made from these
tablets.
Dangerous complications epn follow Ihe neglect of "a
common cold!” Every ease of Vonsilitis began with ‘‘just
a sore throat I" It’s a wise plan to take aspirin after any
undue exposure to bad weather, or whenever there is any
chance that you’ve caught cold. If it’s genuine aspirin it
can’t possibly hurl you; and how it does banish the aches
and pains caused by colds, neuralgia, neuritis, lumbago,
and even rheumatism.
Bayer Aspirin will insure your comfort through the
worst cold season. The more susceptible you are to colds,
the more you need it. Docs not depress the heart.
Preparedness
Itcv. W. P. Merrill of the Brick
church, New York, speaking about
the necessity of beginning far ba< k
to stop war, told about “one of the
most involved and droll sentences"
he ever heard.
It was in the Catskills, in early
summer, on a beautiful warm eve
ning, A small lad suddenly ap
penred, waving a smudge from which
came a cloud of smoke. Some one
called: “Jimmy, why are you using
the smudge? There aren’t any mos
quitoes.”
He answered: “I’m smoking the
mosquitoes before they come, so they
will stay away when they get here.”

Boa Wasn’t Superstitious
When Eladlo Grimaldo of New
Cristobal, Panama, opened his garage
a recent morning, he failed to see the
black cat which slept there and nl
r
ways greeted him with n friendly
meow. What lie did Bee was some
thing that looked like an Inner tube
with n bulge in it and even as he
looked, it moved. Investigation
showed the tube to be a boa eon
stridor seven feet long. After it wan
killed the bulge was found to be the
black cat, the snake’s breakfast. It
was bad luck for botli snake aud eat.
