AGNES MOORE HEAD went earnestly ahead to take an M.A. at the University of Wisconsin, read books, played serious roles on the Wisconsin stage, only to find herself doing strange things in radio in order to make a very good living. For example she stooges with that lustiest of radio clowns Phil Baker, under the preposterous name of Miss Heartburn. She is "Min" of the Gumps, now on the air and there plenty of clowning in this...
When Alf M. Landon stopped talking generalities and got down to cases at Buffalo fortnight ago, one of his lustiest blows was aimed at New Deal taxation. "If the major portion of the Government's income," he orated, "is obtained from indirect and hidden taxes-taxes upon such things as food, clothing, gasoline and cigarets-then the main burden falls upon those of small income...
...osteopaths last week argued that Osteopathy is a full-fledged profession. Their own evidence, however, proved that Osteopathy is still a cult, although the lustiest and most learned of the many cults which growl on the outskirts of orthodox Medicine.

S. railroads plummeted from 748 in 1931 to 163 in 1932, collapsed to 24 miles in 1933. In 1934, 76 miles of new track were laid, last year 45. During these four years...
...King's activity is of a different sort from that of the late Prince Consort Albert, who toiled night & day over the lustiest and most arduous matters of state but it does suggest that Edward VIII has stuff in him likely to ripen on the Throne. No woman has ever pleased Majesty unless she was what King Edward calls "snappy" - that is, active, a good dancer, ebullient, high-strung. In horses he has the same taste and the number of ebullient horses which have fallen with His Majesty, spraining his ankle, breaking his collarbone, once kicking him squarely...
