- LIFE Whether it’s a 250-yard drive, or a 2000- mile trip, you can depend on Dunlop. Dunlop golf balls, like Dunlop tires, are made for distance and An even better Dunlop in 1925 No matter how much dis- tance you have gotten with Dunlops in the past —you can drive farther with this 1925 ball. You may argue that it was impossible to make the ball steadier—but wehave. Add to the Dunlop dura- bility a new and _ better paint and you have in the 1925 Dunlop a ball that’s a glutton for punishment. From hide to heart—it’s better. Dunlop Tire & Rubber Co.

I should have looked before 1 did my washing and then the water dripping from my hands wouldn’t have ruined my brand-new shine. But that is beside the point. I looked, as I said, for a towel. And just when I was beginning to think that All Was Lost my eye lit on a metal box on which these words were painted: PAPER TOWELS. INSERT ONE CENT IN SLOT. I put one of my dripping hands in my right trousers pocket. No pennies there. But my hand was dry when I withdrew it. My left hand went into the left pocket. I found a penny there but by the time I'de extricated it my left hand was dry too. So I put the coin back. It was a joyous experience, one thoroughly in accord with the presiden- tial thrift ideas. Don't misunderstand me, I'm not recommending this sys- tem to President Coolidge, though doubtless his pockets are as absorbent as mine. Not only did I save money by my experience but I came out of it a Bet- ter Man. I experienced, for the first time, a kindly feeling toward my clothier, whom I owe money and naturally hate. When a thing happens that teaches a man to love his enemies it is important and worth recording, though the editor to whom I am send- ing this piece may not agree with me. My: Husband Says Tuat of course he is fond of Tiddle- dewinks; he admires him profoundly. He says he doesn’t go into cestasies over the four Californian pea beans and one Lima bean that I found on the bottom of each of his paws after a rainstorm ; and he isn’t inspired to write such lines as, “Sing a song of sixpence, a pocket full of fleas; four and twenty fiddle strings tied around his knees.” But he says he never winced when I paid fifteen dollars for a basket for him. He says the basket episode marked a new era in his life; previously he had been thoughtfully economical at times, but he saw the futility of it and has had a much better time ever since. But he says he hopes I will never again ask him to bring fresh catnip from town. He objects to being followed home by a procession of anxious-looking cats who seem to look upon him as their own personal bootlegger. L. B.S.
