DAYTONA BEACH, Fla.—Do
you know anyone whom you would
like to see taken down a peg or
two? That Colonel's wife, for In-
stance, or that Commander's wife.
Charming both of them and you
are very fond of them but some-
times you do get to wondering
Just who they think they are.
I have the perfect recipe for
deflating the ego of people like
that Get them Jobe writing syn-
dicated columns; then you can just
sit back and the public will do
the rest.
To wit: fl sound" like a robin) I,
who am not even a regular col-
umnist, am catching my share of
what I know columnists get almost
every day of their lives. Once you
start writing for the • public, the
public feels free to tell you ex-
actly what it thinks of you either
in person or by mail.

Him Failed to Agree
OKLAHOMA CITY. March 3 —
(AP)—Leon C. Phillips, former
governor, said in a formal state-
ment yesterday he regretted the

"I regret that the Jury that sat
through my case was not able to
reach a verdict,” the statement
| read.
The fifth trial resulting from
an $8,000 fleecing of a convict's
j wife ended in an unshakable 9 to
j 3 division of a jury whose major-
ity favored acquittal of the de-
fendant, Phillips.

people I knew and I sat down to
visit with them tin dinner was
■erred. A man got up from the
other side of the room, came over
and spoke to me. He spoke loudly,
too, I might add.
‘You are Mrs. MeLemore. aren't
you? I'm from Philadelphia and
I reed your three columns a week
in the Record there. Frankly, I
don't like them at alL In times of
stress like these, why don't "you
write about the war or the future
of the world after the war?"
Of course, I was dying to ask
him why he read my columns If
he frankly didn’t like them at all
but I restrained myself. I did,
however, try to explain to him
that the day I started being a war
analyst and a post war planner
would be the very day when my
column would not appear In print
anywhere. He was not convinced,
though, and went away shaking
his finger at me and saying—“in
times like this, you know, in times
like this—”
My friends had a nice time at
dhtner. "Would you pass me a roll
pMeee, DeWitt?.....How about
some gravy, Grafton?” "What, no
Jelly, Jean Fielding?"

When I went out and put the
chain back on my bicycle where
it always slip# off. wiped my black,
greasy fingers on my face and
then pedaled home. I had one com-
forting thought. I’m only a tem-
porary columnist.
Yesterday a friend of mine j
dropped in. She reached for one
of my cigarettes, fixed her lip-
stick with one of my Kleenexes,
put her feet on my ar- q ue coffee
table and said, "Do you know that
you look like a horse thief in that
picture that they run of you with |
your column? Not a good horse i
thief, cither. Kind of ■ middle-1
aged, unsuccessful horse thief who
probably deala mostly in stealing I
ponies."
Later 1 went to the ten cent
store Just to browse around among
all the lovely things and a woman I
came up and spoke to me. I shied 1
when she said, “Aren't you Mrs.
MeLemore?” but she had me cor-
nered I started to deny it vehem-
ently but she continued. “I recog-
nized you right away because you
look EXACTLY like your picture
in the paper.”
I went right out end bought a
new dress. "A new frock builds
self confidence and morale,” I
read somewhere. The first dress
that the sales girl showed me was
a print with horses heads on it.
'Take it away,” I begged. “It
might REMIND somebody.”
Do you agree that my recipe
