In typing this semi-monthly message to thoae unfortu' nate oneE who read this column, I find entirely removed all temptation to etick another oar into the MacArthurTruman debate.

What is there to be said? Everything the tongue of man could say has been said in praise of MabArthur; and the tide of condemnation of Harry Truman is something never before dreamed of in America. Neither side needs any help from this column.

With one small exception. It would be wrong to fail to note that the great Britisher Churchill has given the General the highest praise of all. He said that MacArthur is a "great soldier, and a great'statesmant" That is praise indeed from a statesman whose high place in history is already assured.

He stood in the rear for a few minutes, and then, when the preacher read: "We have left undone those things we ought to have done, and have done those things which we ought not to have done," the stranger smiled and took a seat, saying audibly: "Thank the Lord; I've found my crowd at last."

And my old friend Marshall Terrell tells me the story about the minister who wore a bandage on his chin at the Sunday services. After the service he explained to several of his flock that he had been concentrating on his sermon when he cut his chin. One old sister said: "Reverend, too bad you didn't concentrate on your chin and cut your sermon."

The tiny girl had been naughty, and her minister father had punished her by making her eat dinner at a table in the corner of the family dining room, while the rest of the family sat at the dining table as usual. Her father opened the meal with solemn nraye-, and when he finished the little girl in the corner chimed in: "And thank You, dear Lord, for preparing a table for me in the presence of mine enemies." * *

"The meek shall inherit the earth," said the pessimist; "but it won't do them any good, because the women who made them meek will soon take it away from them."

Perhaps the most frequently repeated gag that came out of thc MacArthur episode was about Truman sending a five percenter to greet a hundred percenter; and about a five percenter being able to 6re a hundred percenter'

Louis B. Mayer, movie magnate' went into Toots Shor's famous eatery and drinkery in New York, and said to Toots: "I hope you have some good food for us." And Toots replied: "Listen, Crumbum-I've seen some of your pictures !"

The late Henry Ford never used a private ofhce of his own, and explained why. He said he could always get out of another fellow's office faster than he could get the other fellow out of his. * *

To say that a kid.is as "bright as a dollar" is still a compliment. But to say that he is "sound as a dollar" is something else again. * *

Clare Booth Luce is credited with the following slick one: "In the final analvsis there is no other solution to a nran's problems but the honest day's work, the day's honest decisions, the day's generous utterance, and the day's good c'leed.

Jefferson once remarked that we rest our heads contentedly on the pillow of ignorance which the Creator has made so soft for us because He knew we should have so mrch use for it.

James F. Byrnes, now Governor of South Carolina, recently told an audience in his home state that we now have a three-party political system in this country: the Demccrats, the Pendercrats, and the Republicans.

Political Washington has long been noted for the employment of "ghost writers," but there are some folks there who evidently don't employ any. Ghosts don't use that kind of language.
