Perhaps no one of us has escaped the desire, to rearrange mundane ‘affairs and make a few changes in the existent order of things.

New laws changed the amounts after the slips were issued. TO COMPUTE the “Total Fees 1948” for your passenger car, ~« add $3 to whatever amount is shown in the lower left corner Of your 1947 “white slip” and bring that total to the nearest dollar (50 cents or less is dropped; above 50 cents is brought to the next higher dollar). In the sample above, ‘Total Fees 1948 $27.50” becomes $30.00. : THE MINIMUM fee now set by law is $7. Car owners whose ‘slips show $3.40 or $3.50 as ‘Total Fees 1948” must pay that minimum. THE STATE DEPARTMENT OF MOTOR VEHICLES and the California State Automobile Association have issued this sample to simplify the situation-for motorists. You need to figure the fee only if you intend to renew passenger car registration by mail. Clerks will compute correct fees for owners applying in person, THE PERIOD FOR RENEWAL is January 2 to February 4, 1948, after which penalty fees are added. Passenger car owners use current “white slip,” showing correct address, as renewal application. Com‘mercial vehicle, trailer and motércycle owners will receive from Sacramento potential registration cards“in duplicate (to be used as application) showing their correct registration fees for 1948. \ oO so-called firm foundations, or a runaway river spreads death and destruction in its wake. And, as for the affairs of humanity, who would not change them radically if he eeuld? oe At first thought, I decided that, were I able to confer a transcendent gift upon the world; . would bring in an era of peace to all mankind; but would I> A sudden. and_unearned gift of peace, might not be lasting; the silly pride, greed and hatred of man would be sure to bring an end to that for which we are now striving and usher in another period of war.’ So, what would I give the world if I were able? After due considertion, I think I should fill men’s minds with wisdom; wisdom which would enable world, that we are all members of the human race and that barriers and discriminations are childish and of no especial significence. Boge Yes, wisdom, sagacity as it is often defined, is one thing that might bring about the desired results in the field. of human relationships, for with it, men could look forward—could, with clearer vision, penetrate the dark fog which beclouds their minds and behold in all its beauty, the citidal of Peace. I Wonder wht great events will shape the world’s progress during the year upon which we are just entering. Will wisdom grow or shrink, will those. world leaders to whom we look for redress of wrongs, gain a clear perception of things as they might be? Will our own home-made Congress submerge politics and work together forthe good of all? Will labor.and management stop the noisy wrangling long enough to hear the echoes of a voice now silent and realize that, “*production, production, production,”’ is the real solution to many of our daily’problems of living?

It is a relief to find there is something that, in the opinion of a dentist, really hurts. ’And when they admit in convention that the income tax is a chief occupational hazard they are applying a. new significance to that old dental office query, ‘‘How does the bite feel?’’ oe We knew something was worrying our molar expert. He hasn’t seemed his old self. *“‘Well, how are you, Mr: Wigeon?”’ he ,asked -us on our 500th visit. **The name is Boffle,’’ we corrected, ‘‘and always has been, man and boy.”’ pe ae Print plainly. . . Give street, city and state address,’’ he went on. ‘See paragraph IV.” We got into the chair. : ‘‘What seems to be the trouble?’ he asked. . pointing. **Ah! It’s in parenthesis,’’ he exclaimed. ‘‘This is difficult, ’'] need -my strong glasses.’’ " © He came back with a ledger, two billfolds. and some papers. ' “Ts this ache for the current year 1947?”” he mumbled. The question seemed rambling. “This is a separate ache, not a joint ache, I assume,’’ he went. on. *‘Makes a big difference if any part of it is your wife’s. . . . And remember, you are only allowed six cavities for each child.’ * We were now somewhat alarmed, but he had his knee in our lap and was exploring away with a forceps, two blue pencils, a blotter and four. large ink erasers. ‘‘Looks like a fiduciary,”? he mumbled. “Or a loss by depreciation. .. Am I hurting you? .. If not see Paragraph X, Section VI. .. Stop struggling, will ya?’’ ¥* » Ld The White House Pooch The White House-has a dog. It’s a cocker spaniel sent to the President and Mrs. Truman for Christmas. No longer may it be said of the trials and tribulations that come to White House occupants ‘This shouldn’t happen to a dog.” * But being the First Dog of the Land can’t be so soft. If the President rolls on the floor wiih him, the republicans will cafl him juvenile. ok If Mrs. Truman asks the butcher for a little extra meat for the pup, . it may mean a scandal. It could even put the pooch on the witness committee. CJ And look at all the strange people a White House dog has to get used to! How many of them:canunbend, shake off their dignity and act as if they loved dogs. Suppose the: pooch bit a Russian envoy? War! * What chance has a dog for much attention around the White House? Certainly not much from the cabinet,, which is always in a state of flux. Clint Anderson can’t show enough interest in a pup to feed it something in times like these. W. Averell Harriman can’t be expected to shake off inflation cares long enough to toss a rubber ball around for the animal, * And.awahat freedom @pes'a dog have‘in the White House? How can he shake off the worry that the bed he jumps all over may be Abraham Lincoln’s? Suppose the: chair leg he chews up is in the Blue room? * a * LIYE’S LIKE THAT A little work, a little fun, A struggle somewhat unabating. .. A little praise, a little urn— * But, oh the sting! — no . Hooper rating! . * * To this department the annual chicken show in Madison Square Garden, New York, is a top big city believe-it-or-not. One can imagine Harry Balogh'’s voice ringing out ‘‘In this corner that peerless exponent of the art of egg laying, ‘‘Kid’’ Minorca, .. Her opponent, that idol of the back country ‘‘Kayo’”’ Buff Cochin. . . . And may the better ' cluck emerge triumphantly.’’ * *, “The Bishop's Wife.’ . * oa ' FORMULA X-IT When she turns fo the Sunday recipe, .
