Los Angeles Hoo-Hoo-Ette Club No. 1 will hold a Concatenation for the initiation of new Kitten members at its November meeting, set for the 9th of this month. The closed meeting will be held at the Blarney Castle restaurant.

The lumberwomen held their October meeting on the 12th at the Shangri-I-a in Chinatown. Roll Call was answered by the names of cities they visited during vacation, with such faraway places as Honolulu, the Isle of Capri, Banff.

A revised list of new officers for the Hoo-Hoo-Ettes' 1959-60 club year is as follows:

President, Margaret Gladish; lst Vice-President, Sallye Bissell ; 2nd Vice-President, Peggy Mattola; 3rd Vice-President, Phyllis Hawkins; Secretary, Betty Morrill; Treasurer, Lena Galyean; Initiation chairman, Esther Francis; Publicity, Lorraine Impson, and Membership, Mabel Askins.

"As independent as " il, i i"l" h", long been accepted as the championship along independence lines. One man in history had that iced hog backed off the board. FIis name was Diogenes. He was a thinker who lived on the city dump and studied the great thoughts of life. Alexander the Great, conqueror of the world, had heard of Diogenes through his teacher, Aristotle. So he sent Aristippus to tell Diogenes that the great Alexander would like to see him. It was a command of the most commanding sort. Which impressed the bald philosopher not at all. He said to Aristippus: "Let him come hither, for I shall always think Athens is as distant from Macedon as Macedon is from Athens." And what makes it one of the world's great stories is-Alexander came.

Talcott Williams, ai"irrg,iirrrul tiacher of journalism, used to say-and was frequently quoted-"All men have opinions, but few men think."

"Going from the sublime to the ridiculous" is a well-worn phrase, and the assumption usually carries that the two are far apart. Yet Thomas Paine, famous patriot and thinker, did not agree. He said: "The' sublime and the ridiculous are often so nearly related that it is difEcult to class them separately. One step above the sublime makes the ridiculous; and one step above the ridiculous makes the sublime."
