From where I sit... 61/ Joe Marsh
Want a Vacation
from Marriage?
Alvin Blake went south on his va
cation, for ac me fishing, and left his
M' a ; to enjoy a vacation from the
co- cob pipe, clothes in a heap, and
solos on the harmonica.
First few days, Martha enjoyed
It—house neat and quiet, top back
on the toothpaste, no morning mess
from Alvin's midnight snacks (Al’s
partial to a bit of cheese and beer
at bedtime).
Come the end of the week, she
began to fidget; couldn't even read
the Clarion, it looked so unr-.ussed;
didn't have any appetite with no
body to cook for. She was about to
wire At, when he barges home a
week ahead of time, and she almost
cries for gratitude. (“Felt the same
way myself,” says Al.)
From where I sit, those differ
ences of habit and opinion —
whether they have to do with corn
cob pipes, a glass of beer, or play
ing the harmonica, seem mighty
trivial when you’re separated. And
they are, too!

By Lawrence P. Lewis
A STUDY IN BEAUTY
I an. sitting in a very comfort
able lounge chair at the Cosme
tique Beauty Salon, 2310 North
24th Street. The Cosmetique Beau
ty Salon is owned and operated
by Mrs. Margaret King. 2828 De
catur Street, a recent graduate
of the Northside Beauty School.
Very seldom do I spend much
time at a beauty salon, but know
ing Mrs. King for many years
prompted me in being one of the
first to wish this energetic young
lady success in her first business
venture. So here I am as comfort
able as any man can be, surround
ed by a gathering of lovely ladies,
operators and customers.
The salon is spacious and mir
rors grace almost every direction
you turn. Individual booths, dra
ped with beautiful flowered plas
tic curtains add to the attractive
ness of this beauty salon.
Anyone who has ever been ac
quainted with Mrs. King would
not have to be told how neat and
clean the salon is. Schooled in
sanitation all of her life as well
as by the instructors of the North
Side Beauty School, her salon is
almost as neat as the young lady
herself.
Mrs Racheal Cole and Miss
Doris Reynolds, also recent grad
uates of the North Side Beauty
School, are operators at the Cos
metique Beauty Salon. Using mo
dern equipment and with the latest
knowledge of cosmetology, they
should prove to be a welcome ad
dition to the beauty operators of
Omaha.
A lot of you would think I
would be embarrassed sitting here
talking to all these lovely ladies,
but I am not. Of course, my wife
is not here, so I can relax and
smile, saying “yes Mamm, no
Mamm, Yes it is beautiful, of
course I’ll tell my friends, you
don’t say so; is that so; well who
would believe it?”
It is hard to believe that only
a year ago, after I returned from
my rest leave in Calcutta, India,
that I had not spoken to a lady
in fourteen months. So many la
dies here, and all so charming,
that all of those many months
seem like a bad dream.
Until I paid this visit to the
Cosmetique Beauty Salon, all of
the many salons meant to me,
was more money out of my poc
kets, that is, when I could find
some in my pockets. But now I
am confirmed to the beauty sa
lon’s necessity. No wonder I am
as content as a kitten before a
fireplace, I can absorb all of this
beauty and it doesn’t cost me one
cent.
When I look into the mirror at
what used to be a clean smoothe
complexion, and see the lines com
ing into my forehead, the flab
biness of the skin, the shadows
under my eyes, I realize more
than ever what the years did to
me, did not do to the ladies equal
to me in age. The real reason all
of these beauty salons.
More power to you, Mrs. Mar
garet King. If you take appoint
ments after business hours, count
me in. I need a little fixing up.

Alley News
By Mildred Martin
Well another week has rolled
around and many are curious to
know what has taken place around
the bowling lanes in the past few
days. So we'll once again review
the events to you.
Last week. I gave you some of
the famous balls and their own
ers. This week we’ll take a few
more. However, Bill Greer, the
owner of “Daisy Mae” is verv
much disgusted with her the past
week and says she is either up
for trade or sale as he is about
ready to put her down. On ask
ing Sam Jackson the name of his
ball, he informs us it was “Cost
ella’’ because it doesn't do a darn
thing he tells her. Zack Abrams
also owns a ball, but says he can
not name her because what he
calls her wouldn’t be fit for hu
man ears to hear. Sgt. Eddie
Johnson, upon being interviewed
says he’ll call his ball Elsie after
his wife, for personal reasons of
his own.
So much for our balls of the
week. League nites Tuesday found
the Lions playing the Lakestreet
Wonders. The Lions winning all
three games. Wednesday night
found the Trojans against the
Lefties with the Trojans taking
three games. Thursday the Elks
against the Bacchanites. The Elks
won two, the Bacchanites one.
Prizes for the week were won

The Bell Tolls |
(BY LEONARD H. BELL)
NEW YORK, N. Y. (GLOBAL) There axe times when “Silence is
golden” and the words of others seem more emphatic and to the point.
This is one of those times and this column carries U. S. Senator James
Mead’s ideas of a Democracy.
Democracy Means The Right To Work—The Right To Live.
—By James Mead U. S. Senator, N. 1.
e have just emerged victoriously from a war for free
dom of religion, freedom of expression, freedom from
fear of oppression, freedom from want. It was to these
four freedoms, proclaimed by the late President Franklin
D. Roosevelt, that the men and women of the United Nations
dedicate themselves.
It was these same four freedoms that inspired people
around the world to carry on to victory the struggle against
regimentation, exploitation, and dictatorship. We here in
America have long known that men cannot live half free,
ha'f slave. That profound truth is deeply embedded in the
core of our American experience. It was said that we were
not prepared for World War II; that our military establish
ment was at a disadvantage because of the head start achiev
ed by the axis powers. In a military sense that was true for
militarism has not been our predominant characteristic.
However, we rapidly overcame an early advantage en
joyed by the Axis and with matchless leadership and unpar
i alelled unity we overwhelmed the enemy in every category
l and beat him back to crushing defeat. That record of ac
complishment that lead to victory indicated that in one sense
we were prepared. President Roosevelt's social philosophy
had revatilized and strengthened the spirit of our people. Wre
had found a leader who translated into law and reality the
hopes and aspirations of the people. Under the President’s
able leadership, a philosophy of government which had here
j tofore protected the citizen only in his right to he free was
j transformed into a government which now protected the
' citizen in his right to work and in his right to live.
If we had used the entire period between the World
W ars to make democracy a dynamic and a meaningful force
in the lives of all of our people and of the peoples of the
world as well we would not be called upon to fight a bitter
war to defend the democratic system of government. If de
mocracy had meant higher standards of living, great educa
tional opportunities, fuller national liberty, it would not
have been called upon to fight desperately for its life. Un
fortunately, the democracies failed too frequently to do
those things.
To many peoples ot the world Uemocracy became syn
onvmous with unemployment, with malnutrition, with inse
curity. It meant for many people, human exploitation, col
onial subjugation, aiul national repression. In our one case
we were prone to neglect the “one-third of the nation ill-fed,
ill-housed, and ill-clothed.’ If we had made democracy ev
erywhere mean more food, more clothing, more education,
more equality, it would not be called upon to meet the chal
lenge of tolalarianlsm. No demagogue could have climbed j
to power on the ladder of popular dissatisfaction and rest
lessness. Perhaps these are unpleasant truths but they
must be reiterated so that they will not be repeated this time.
We must face these facts until they have sunk deep inio
our minds and into our hearts as well. D^meerecy must
mean progress, progress towards greater unity, greater op
portunity and greater prosperity. The world wants Peace
more than anything, a peace that will be lasting and endur
ing; a peace that will not be jeopardized by inequalities and
inequities, among the peoples of the nations of the world. It
must be a peoples' peace, wherein the freedoms for which
we fought and sacrificed will be recognized rights and priv
ileges of all.
With the war happily behind us. with the tyrants w'ho
brought it on destroyed, we must now embark upon a cru
sade that will dim the scars of the conflict and compensate
the people as far as humanly possible for the sacrifices and ;
the sorrows they have endured. We must insulate ourselves
and the peoples of the world from the occasion of another
war by declaring a world war against poverty, against ignor
ance, against persecution, against prejudice, against bigotry,
against exploitation, against intolerance..

SOL MOORE AND HIS HORN
Sol Moore who is at this time
heading his own aggregation in
New York City is definitely sched
uled to go on to the top in the
field of music because of his fine
training, experience, and the way
in which he is holding his audi
ences spellbound at times..Then
at other times the audiences jump
for joy right along with Sol and
his-men whenever they hear the
jump tunes. So much in demand
is his music that on November 9
at New York City college Sol and
his orchestra are personally man
aged by Denny Butts whose con
tacts are limited and their book
ings are handled thru Brooks
Hoexter. In Sol’s aggregation are
men of training and experience.
His silent-partner, George (Bugi)
Ward played right along with him
in Floyd Ray's orchestra not too
long ago. The group is now mak
ing recordings and is also being
considered for one of the coming
motion pctures of a major com
pany.

Let Dolly Preside at Little Girls’
Home Made Ice Cream Party Treat
LITTLE girls love a festive party
table just as much as grown-ups
do and it’s a' good inspiration to
let them have a bit of hostess train
ing as often as you can. An easy
way to dress up a supper table for
email fry is to install Sister’s be
loved new Kewpie doll as a center
piece and then carry out the theme
by making doll cut-outs to decorate
the ice cream which, of course, is
the oue and only must when juve
nile party menus are under consid
eration.
You can work some real magic
by using sweetened condensed milk
to turn dry. bread into a cake-like
treat that's' easily made into cute
doll shapes with a cookie cutter.
Just spread the bread with sweet

coconut and toast.
