THis marks the beginning of a new era in the life of the youngsters. They now will find it possible to wind themselves in yards of gum, while simultaneously defacing little brother's countenance. Science marches on. The school of tomorrow - has been unveiled in Brooklyn.- It is complete with a radio loudspeaker in every classroom. The principal may conduct two-way conversations with the teachers, without leaving his sound-proof office. The Ruark poll heartily recommends that the Navy admonition be used in this TBT (talk between teachers). The speakers would blare: “Now hear this! Sixth grade lay aft to the cloakroom! Working party lay down to the gymnasium! Third grade stand by the blackboard!”

Professors Have Been Scooped

THIS SCHOOL also contains juke boxes, for parties, television, frequency modulation radio, a moving picture theater—and several phonographs, plus fat record library. Nobody mentioned it, but I assume that-the Three R's will still be taught—and probably by schoolmarms who are as underpaid as always, The accent is on . science this month.

People's Toes Are Doomed

A REPORT comes from Washington that feet with toes on them are doomed. That's right. Passe. Washed up. Finished. By the year 11,948—or a scant 10,000 years from now--toes will have vanished from the foot, from disuse.

“No sir,” he testified. “They were oficial.”

No Authority ‘to Theenk’ “BUT WE HAD those books written to keep people from starving to death,” the gentleman from Alabama insisted. “Well, I had three children to feed.” Rene replied. “They told me to write the way I did. I needed the job.” And there was Rep. J. Edgar Chenoweth of Colorado insisting that he explain why he. insulted the Mormons. He wrote that Brigham Young kept a plug of tobacco in one pocket and a jug of whizky in the other—and sniffed them three times a day to prove to himself that he could ahstain from rum and nicotine. “Is that an insult to Mr. Young?" cried Rene —and cried is the word, because he was almost in tears. “I meant it as. a great praise.’ “It just seemed to have offended all the people of Utah, is all,” Rep. Chenoweth replied. Rene sighed. Beautiful, beautiful theengs he could have written. Wonderful theengs. “But they did not give me the authority; they did not even give me the authority to theenk,” he said. Here Rene put on. his hat, with apologies. He had a date with the Senate, hall a mile across the - lawn, to tell some more of the troubles of the little man who put the words in the Voice of America.

By EARL RICHERT, Scripps-Howard Writer . WASHINGTON, June 3- An intensive campaign is under way to persuade pro-margarine Sen. Robert A. Taft (R. 0.) to quit “sitting on his hands” and do something about passing the mar-garine-tax repeal bill before Congress adjourns, Pro-margaripe Senators say passage of the repealer is certain if they can ever get it io a vote. And it can be brought to a vote, they say, If Sen. Taft, as chair- - - - man of the GOP Policy Committee, brings it up on the Sénate floor and keeps it there for a couple of days.
