The Poor Man’s Philosopher
TWO HOMELY MEN STIR
THE WORLD OF LETTERS
NEW YORK—(AP—If you were
born poor and homely, take heart,
man.
A hundred years from now the
scholars may be turning hand
springs over you. ks
At least the most exciting lit
erary re-discoveries of recent
years have dealt with two men of
genius who were regarded by
their contemporaries as uncouth in
appearance—or downtight ugly.
‘wne one Abraham Lincoin: The
opening of his long-sealed papers
in 1947 still has historians astir.
They expect them to throw new
light on the Civil War era. |
Awkward Lincoln |
A single letter by the gangling,
awkward Lincoln, who learned to
read and write by firelight and
rose from the log cabin to the
White House, sold at auction here
last April for $5,800, 3
Bqually as dramatic as the open~
ing of the Lincoln papers was the
assembling of a lost treasure trove
of literary material surrounding
Dr. Samuel Johnson. It is the out
standing literary event of 1948.
“rhe collection climaxes a 22-
year search' by Col. Ralph H. Is
ham, son of the New Jersey rail
rogl {inaucifr, who drained his
ownpersonal fortune to buy it.
It"tonsists of literally thousands
of papers left at his death in 1795
by James Boswell, whose monu
mental study of Johnson is the
best kriown biography in all litera
ture. They were lost for more than
a century in the rubbish of castles
in Ireland and Eigland.
New Pieture
Scholars expect them to give a
complete new picture of this Gol
den Age of England, over whose
literary life Johnson ruled with an
iron tongue.
Johnson. is only a dimly-remem
bered figure to most schoolboys.
But to those who have taken the
trouble to wade through Boswell’s
massive biography he is one of the
most interesting men who ever
lived.
He was a kind of Noah Webster,
Dorothy Parker, Alexander Wooll
cott and"H. L. Mencken rolled in
to one. And something more, too.
But except for Boswell, who trot
ted at his heels for 21 years noting
down everything he said, Johnson
would be known today only as a
minor poet, dictionary marker and
literary historian.
For few people now bother to
Best Black Dress
s Thmflj‘zfl Buy
BY: IA HART
NEA STaff Writer
The woman who in spite of the
season’s temptations to wear col
oreg dresses clings to beloved
blacks probably knows what she
is about. |
She does, if she chooses the best |
black dress that she can afford to
buy. The better the dress, the bet
ter is the dye that makes the fabric
black. A good dye means that col
or will be deep, strong and flat-
Aering to . begin with; will con
tinue so remain so after a dress
has had repeated cleanings. |
The more simply-styled the
black dress is, the more expensive
it is apt to he. Simple line ecalls
for use of quality material and
fine workmanship. But the argu
ment for the simple dress is that
it can be Kkept indefinitely in
wardrobe service, which in the
long run spells e-c-0-n-o-m=-y for
the woman on a budget.
If she is mature in years, she
proves that she knows what she'’s
about in picking black by the way
she contrives to releave its som
berness. She will dispel any
gloomy look of all-black by wind
ing ropes and ropes of gold chains
around the neckline of her dress
or have more fun by mixing ropes
of pearls with strands of colored
beads. Such highlights are not on
1y fashionable tricks to use this
fall but are simple ones, the
wherewithal for which can be dug
up out of a box of costume trink
ets.

read what Johnson himself wrote.
They read what Boswell says he
said. Such as:
“Patriotism is the last refuge of
a scoundrel.”
“Hell is paved with good inten
tions.”
“A man of genius has been sel
dom ruined except by himself.”
“The noblest prospect which a
Scotehman ever sees, is the high
road that leads him to England.”
“No man but a blockhead ever
wrote except for money.”
r Conversational Charm
But the tart-tongued doctor’s
charm was purely conversational.
Here is how he iooked to Boswell
at their first meeting:
“Mr. Johnson is a man of a
most dreadful appearance. He is
a very big man, is troubled with
sore eyes, the paisy and the King's
evil ((scrofula).
He is very slovenly in his dress
and speaks with a most uncouth
voice. :
But homely or not, Dr. Johnson,
who came to London with nothing
in his pockets but five cents and
an unpublished tragedy, became
the titan of his time-—the “Age
of Reason.” |
The furor over the discovery of
his own papers and those of Lin
coln would tickle the old lion. But
this homely man of letters would
be the first to hand the laurels to
Lincoln, the homely man of deeds.
Lon& ago he wrote:
“Words are men’s daughters,
but God’s sons are things.” .

NEW YORK, Nov. 9—(AP) —
Wanna go bowling? . . . 1t really
is too early to guess at the teams
for those Jan. 1 football “bowl”
games, but the real puzzler seems
to be the Orange Bowl setup . . .
The Miami folks didn’t begin seri

til last week . . . Prospect is that
the Southeastern champion will go
to the Sugar Bowl and the next
best to the Orange Bowl . . . Maybe
the Camellia Bowl promoters at
LaFayette, La., were calling a shot
when they invited the North Car
olina footballers to train there
along with the Tar Heel basketball
team, which plays Arizona in that
bowl feature . . . Some of the
hopefuls who'd like to get invita
tions are Clemson (Scoop Latimer
guarantees a good attraction at
reasonable rates), and St. Thomas
(Minnesota).

Sitting Pretty
For Best Poise
BY ALICIA HART
NEA STaff Writer
The way in which you sit down
to chat with older friends tells
them instantly whether you are
going to be a fidgety or a poised
conversationalist.
You will be “typed” as a fidgty
young thing if you shuffle your
feet, tr wrap them around your
chair or cross and uncross your
legs of poise if you tug at your
clothes, toy with a necklace or
bracelet or re-arrange your hair.
No matter how ill at ease you
may feel with an older person, you
can hide it if you'll sit quietly,
The more quietly you sit, the more
poised you will appear to be.
The best way to give the im
pression of poise is to walk quiet
ly to the chair in which you are
going to sit. Turn, back up to it,
adjust your skirts and sit down
easily. Then lean back in the chair.
Sit with legs pulled back as close
to the chair as possible, and keep
knees and feet together.
If you cross legs, keep the
crossed leg close to its uncrossed
mate. And don’t swing that foot
or dangle your slipper.

Farmer And

Bride Divorece
BLACKSHEAR, Ga.,, Nov. 9 —
(AP) — A young south Georgia
farmer has been granted a di
vorce from his teen-age wife who
spent a six-day “honeymoon” With
an old sweetheart.
It all began last Februa&y.
Fifteen minutes after Mr. and
Mrs. Doniver Teston where pro
nounced man and wife, Sittie the
bride, who was 14 at the time, was
whisked away from her husband’s
side by a boy friend and taken on
a wedding trip that lasted aimost
a week.
The boy firiend, 2Z-year-old
Buddy Davis, was driving the
newlyweds home from the wed
ding. When Doniver left the car
for a drink at a roadside soft
drink stand, Buddy simply drove
off with blonde, blue-eyed Sittie,
and away they went.
They saw the sights at Lookout
Mountain, Tenn., drove to seaside
Savannah, Ga., for a spell, and
then at Macon, Buddy gave Sittie
$2 and told her to catch a bus and
go on back home.
When Sittie showed up, Doni
ver said everything was all right
-—as long as it wasn’t Sittie’s fault.
Sittie told Sheriff 1.. L. Taylor
that it had been a ‘pretty rough
trip. Buddy watched her every
minute, she said, and what was
more, she surely had been afraid
of him.
Doniver swore out a kidnaping
warrent against Buddy, but the
charges were dropped.
All that happened last February.
Yesterday, Doniver, who is 19, got
a divorce. His petition described
Sittie’s travels with Buddy and
said also that Sittie had begun
tossing blue-eyed glances at other
man. ;

THE STORY
Time, 1880 Place, New Orleans
Louis Durand, 37, a well-to-do
bachelor, has been corresponding
with Miss Julia Russell, whom he
has never seen. He has proposed
marriage and she has accepted.
According to her picture, Miss
Russell is dark-haired, strong
featured and no longer young.
Durand goes down to the dock to
meet the boat that is io bring her
from St. Louis. He is dumfounded
when an exquisite young blond
creature introduces herself as
Julia. She explains her little de
ceit by saying she didn't want
him te fall for just a pretty face.
They are married and after a gay
wedding uspper, Durand takes his
bride to the lavish new home he
has built for her. Julia appears
delighted with everything.
VI
It was a week later, N) days at
most, Rosy cheeked, dewyeyed
winsome in the early morning
sunlight, in a dressing sack of
warm yellow whose hue matched
the sunny glow falling about her
she quickly forestalled Aunt Sa
rah, took the coffee urn from her
hand, insisting as he did every day
on pouring his cupful herself.
He smiled, flattered, as he did
every day when this same thing
happened.
Settled in her chair, she raised
her own cup, eyes smiling at him
over its very rim.
“This is really excellent coffee,”
she remarked, after a sip.
“It’s some of our own. One of
the better grades, from the ware
house. I have a small sackful sent
home every now and again for
Aunt Sarah’s use,”
“I don’t know what I should do
without it. It is so invigorating,
ot a chilly morning. There is
nothing I am quite so fond of.”
“You mean since you have be
gun to sample Aunt Sarah’s.ss
“No, always. All my life I—"
She stopped, seeing him look at
her with a sort of sudden, arrested
attention, It was like a stone cast
into the bubbling conversation,
and sinking heavily to the bot
tom, stilling it.
There was some sort of conta
gion passed between the. Impos
sible to give it a name. She seem
ed to take it from him, seeing it
appear on his face, and her own
became strained and watchful.
“But—" he" said- at last, and
didn’t go on.
“Yes?” She said with an effort.
“Were you going to say some
thing?”
“No, —” Then he gave himself
the lie, went on to say it anyway.
“But in your letter once you said
the opposite. Telling me how you
went down to a cup of tea in the
morning. Nothing but tea would
do. You could not abide coffee.

} She lifted her cup again, took
a sip. She was unable therefore
to speak again until she had re
'moved it out of the way.
' “True,” she said, speaking
' rather fast to make up for the re
striction, once it had been remov
ed. “But that was because of my
sister.”
“But your preferences are your
own, how could your sister affect
them?”
| ‘I was in her house,” she ex
| plained. “She was the one liked
' tea, I coffee. But out of consider
| ation for her, in order not to be
the means of causing her to drink
something she did not like, I pre
tended I liked it too. I put it in
my letter because I sometimes
showed her my letters to you be
fore I sent them, and I did not
want her to discover my little de
ception.”
“Oh,” he grinned, almost with
a breath of relief.
Her complexion was a source
of considerable wondermeant to
him. It seemed capable of the
most rapid and unpredictable
changes, almost within the twin
kling of an eye. These flushes and
pallors, if such they were, did not
actually occur before his eyes,
but within such short spans of
| time that, for all practical purpos
{ es, it amounted to the same thing.
| It was most noticeable in the
{ mornings. On first opening the
i shutters and turning to behold
ther, her coloring would be almost
i camelia-like. And yet, but a few
;moments later, as she followed in
i his wake down the stairs and re
l joined him at the table, there
would be the fresh hue of prim
'roses, of pink carnations, in her
cheeks.
, One morning, however, his con
cern got the better of him. He
lrose from the table they were
seated at, breakfasting, went over
‘to her, and tested her forehead
with the back of his head.
‘ “What do you do that for?” she
| asked, with unmarred composure.
i “I wanted to see if you had a
temperature.”
' He thought he saw her lips
i quiver treacherously, but they
| formed nothing but a‘small smile
of reassurance.
| “Oh no, lam in perfectly good
{‘health.”
i “You are as white as a ghost,
iat times. Then at others—A few
;moments ago, in our room, you
| were unduly pale. And now your
i cheeeks are like apples.”
‘ She turned her fork over, then
itumed it kack again the way it
| had been.
l “It is the cold water, perhaps,”
she said. “I. apply it to my face
}with strong pats, and that brings
out the color. 8o you need not
lworry any longer, here's really
nothing to be alarmed at.”
