WHICH proves that Mr. Herr-log never forgot the advice given him by an ell-ambassador whom he-met in Washington where he had gone 1o;- a week "to learn diplomacy" 3108-1115 lDDOlni-ment to Paris and before tak. ing up his duties-

YOU recall, of course, that Am- bassador Herrick took Lindbergh un- der his wing and roof following that young man's amazing descent on Paris, and thereby hangs this talc told by Mr. Herrick to Colonel Mott:

"That nighwthc night following Lindberglrs arrial in Paris-my dog Max, who always slept in my room," said Mr. Herrick. "having made Lindberghs acquaintance, decided he was a better man than I was and went in and passed the night on Lindbershs bed, with his head on his pillow. You can't beat a dog's in- Siillob-not a good dog's." '

"IT Ia a queer thing." taid Sir Thomas’ Becchaln, eminent ‘orchestra conductor. t0 Basil ‘Toner one say at Ccvent Garden-with which institu- tion Toner was connected at the time —"that no less than three of my prime donne are daughters of butchers. I wonder if it"s the smell of meat. or what. that makes them sing like that?" .,

I I I

BEECHAM had a dry and some- times caustic sense of humor, recalls Toner (in "Recollections of s Bolling Stone“), which occasionally would betray itself during .el-learssls'..'1b give one example-I remember his 981191118 on his conductors desk one day to silence his orchestra. and then inquiring in his dry w y: .

"Vlfhcn will Mr. Blank back fromvhis holiday?" .

At once Mr. Blank's head bobbed up.

“I'm back, sir. Here I aml"

"Why. so you are! Odd I never heard your instrument once during that passage."

THEN there is the story about Beecham hailing a taxi while he was walking down Regent street, London, one warm morning. Stripping oi! his fur coat he tossed it into the taxi with the remark to the driver:

“Taxi-follow me." .

Whereupon he‘contlnued his prowl, the taxi, conveying his fur coat. crawling along the curb after him.

Beecham, of course, got his money from pills.

SOME sinus’ -g "r ckchat‘ by George Bernard Shaw brightens, an official history of the first ieri years of New York's Theatre Guild. It has to do with the Guilds production of “Back to Methuselah,” on which-it lost money but gained prestige. when he was asked by the Guild-for a contract to produce "Methuselah," Shaw replied:

"A contract is unnecessary. It isn't likely that any other lunatics will want to produce it." l .

' "e t e ma: 01111.1) had planned to loco about 030,000 in its production ol’ "Methuselah." When the final loss summed up to about 020,000, Shaw heard of this. "

"The ‘Theatre Guild made 010.000 out of my name." he remarked. ‘That is how I saver the Guild money, ‘Tl-icy expected to ." lose 030.000 on "ihdr production of ‘Back to Methuselah.’ a‘nd oflly lost 020,000."

inept had been denied his contempor- ary. notes ll. A. lHIIBIIIOII-OD (in-his dssclupting "Life" of the author of "Peter Pan”), but it had been one of Barrie's distinctions as a boy and he straightway gavo evidence that he still could‘ boast what the evolution- ists. I believe, hold to be one of the many signs of our simian origin. _ I I 0

DURING rehearsals oi "The Lit- tle ldinisier" Barrie tilting heck in his chali- crashed heels over head into the orchutra, being picked up. as it seemed, ilfelessnCarl-ied to a sofa he soon recdvercd but the rehearsal was called oi! for the day. Soon a newspaper man arrived.

"I hear Mr. Barrio has met with an accident." he said- - _

“Oh,’it's nothing," Cyril Maudo replied, chceriiy, "only a severe shock."

ANOTHER Barrie story told by Mr. Hammefion but aedited to Joseph Harkcr. noted scenic artist. has it that the playwright, anxious to con- gratula‘ one actress on the render- ing of her part, went to her dressing ‘room and knocked tirnidly on the door.

"Come in" called the lady.

I I I

AS Barrie shyly opened the door- she plunged straight into a. disserta- tion on “Should Women Propose" or some other world-shaking 00F“! 0f thi kind. At last she wound up her peroratlon, remarking sweetly as she proceeded tn put the finishing touches to her toilet: . .

“That's all I have to say. Mind you don't misrepresent me, please, and do use one of my prettiest photo- graphs with the interview." _

She had mistaken Barrie for‘ a re- porter who was due to interview her, by appointment.

THAT ‘we ‘are still, in spite of im- mensely improved methods of loco- motion, extraordinarily ignorant of each other, is the point of a little joke cracked by Slsley Huddleston -noted Paris corrcspondcnt—_in "Eu- rope in Zlgzngs." A French friend of Huddlestows M. Alain Mellet, had some notepaper printed with the

heading: "Committee for the Dc- ience of Poldavla." " e; e e

on this‘ hotepaper M. Mellet ad- dressed to members of the French Chamber of Deputies, a. stirring ap- peal in favor of the people of Poldav- ia who were, according to his text. still oppressed. By return of mall llc received a large number of respons- es. i-1is' correspondents offered to speak, to write, to vote in defence of the unfortunate Poldavlans-

There is, of course, no such coun- try in Europe as Poldavla.

I I I

BUT-the smile over-how many o! us could recite the names of the capitals of the Baltic States? asks Mr. liuddlestcn. Then he recallsthot during the war M. Briand, the French statesman, was extremely vague about CzechlrSlovakla. whllc as for Lloyd Gcorgo-"lt is notorious that at the Peace Conference he had the hazlest notion of Central Europe- an geography."

In the city miniature freshets flood the Pill/B- mcnts and lcy sidewalks. The re- sulting slush makes motor traffic difficult and the walking very dis- agreeable.
