Citizens from Keokuk and| Tishomingo. Greta Garbo went| there alone the las: time she \\'as; ‘ gtpwn. Spent half an hour lean-| 4 ‘against the parapet and star-f . ing in melancholy fashion over the| misty city. “Very luffly,” she said’ %ly And went home. ! ...

There’s a great book, and every- | one is supposed to register. Many | péopke Wwrite terse little comments —“wonderful,” ‘“‘marvelous” and “stupendous” are overwhelming favorites,. A Senor Iragaperi from Buenos Ajres was one not especi ally impressed. He wrote sim ply: “Bah!” with a great flour-' ish’ Hildred Watchorn, a Cana-‘ d}‘an, penned an enigmatic “Dear | God” A man named Thomas de-] clared: “I liked the hostess.” Af ter the names of Robert K. Dunn and Margaret Tracy is the entry: ‘“We 'washed the dishes.”” The hostess says ves, they actually did ask to be allowed to wash the| dishes, It seemed to Le smnul special secret whim, so she let| them wash a few cups and sau-| cers, l Cente, of Interest l " One of the longest rubberneck | tours in town—it takes two hours| and costs a dollar—is conducted‘ within Rockefeller Center, and in- | cludes everything from the for eign buildings on Fifth Avenue to the two theaters and the RCA Ytuilding. Guides explain all about the architecture and the murals, the flora in the gardens, the water in the fountains. From the top of the central sky scrapey they'll point out, a few clocks north, the red brick home of John D. Rockefeller, Sr., and next to it, across a concrete lawn.‘ the house of John D. Jr. They'lll tell you that the latter walks to and from his offices in the huild-l ing, but they don’'t show you the offices. These are, I can tell you,| about the simplest in the p]ace-! plain plaster walls, a few pictures | no portraits of the elder Rock=- | feller, some rugs). John D. Jr’s| own office has some wood panel 4ng. He works at a table instead of a desk, and the only prelic . around the place is an old roll top, now used by a secretary but whichk used to belong to the oil-| king himself. ; Cake Contest to Be ' Held at Watkinsville| .
