Perhaps we can now set ourselves a new goal and measure of our national welfare: A new suit for every man every year. It doesn't sound excessive. Yet the average man bought only a third of a suit in 1940, a New England clothier recently told a convention of his associates. In reverse English, the man buys a suit of clothes only once in three years. This doesn't mean that the American standard of living is not still the highest in the world. It simply means that there is still plenty of room tor improvement. CURTAIN Why 'Hoodlum' Why is a young ruffian called a hoodlum? In the early days of San Francisco, a gang of young rowdies was headed by a man named Muldoon. A newspaper reporter coined a name for the gang by spelling Muldoon backwards: noodlum.

COLON, MICH.--There's^ilksk to everything, says Percy Abbott, former actor and magician, of Colon, as he sets up apparatus to make it appear that Helen Gallagher Is losing an arm. It's all an optical illusion, of course. But Abbott, who turned from the. stage to manufacturing novelties and magicians' supplies, likes to fool his public. This particular trick was devised by U. F. Grant, who has more than 100 magic routines to his credit as an employee of Abbott's firm. He earned a national reputation on this one, popularly known as "Modernistic Surgery." The equipment consists of a cabinet into which Miss Gallagher inserts her arm for "amputation." Two large cleavers are dropped upon the arm and the cabinet is. opened to reveal the arm cut in two. A moment later the girl withdraws her arm unharmed. Neither Abbott nor Grant will tell how the trick is done. Mirrors--or something. But to make sure that the illusion is foolproof Abbott's demonstration in Colon was accompanied by the popping of flashlight bulbs in his Martin Conway, who was vacationing from his work at the Riverside Dairy, went to Chicago last Thursday to spend a few days with his daughter, Mrs. Mabel Holle. Mrs. Alice BoWles of Chicago is making her home with Mrs. Mary OTlaherty. _ Mrs. Gertrude I"fisen, who has been visiting in Chicago during the summer, returned to her home at St. Petersburg, Fla. She is an old time resident of McHenry. Miss Mary Jane Lauree of St. Joseph's hospital, Elgin, spent last Thursday with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Math B. Laures. She was accompanied by the Misses Bonnielee Reese and Janet Bartlett, also of Elgin. Mrs. Ida Mix has returned to her home in Chicago after spending sev eral weeks with her sister-in-law, Mrs Rose Miller. Mr. and Mrs. Joseph H. Adams returned last week after enjoying a few weeks at Paw Paw, Mich. Miss Beatrice Williams of Waukegan spent the weekend with her parents.

Floattag Bead Trick. I Mr. and Mrs. T. L. Kqaba'l of Chi- Grant also has devised S cabinet which, when placed over one's head, seemingly causes the head to disappear from the cabinet and float out over the startled spectators. In addition to professional magicians a number of famous amateurs have become Abbott's clients. Richard Himbes, orcheetraJeader; Chester Morris and Harold Lloyd of the movies and a South African missionary are among his customers. The missionary, Abbott says, uses magic to expose to the natives some of the pious frauds perpetrated on them by their own medicine men. Run-of-the-mine amateurs who have the greatest representation among practicing magicians are doctors and dentists, Grant observes. Having naturally skillful hands, magic is easy for them to learn and provides a pleasant escape from their sobering professions. Clergymen also have used feats of magic to illustrate sermons. Art More Exacting. Modern magic is more difficult to perform than the tricks of yesterday which were at a height or some distance from the audience. Nowadays magicians practice their art in night clube within arm's length of spectators and get away with it. Of all the magicians he has seen Grant says that American performers are the most clever. Tricks of the trade get a thorough going over in September each year when magicians from all over the country convene at Colon on Abbott's invitation. They demonstrate their individual skills, talk over trade trends and look over latest offerings on the market. In the trickiest business in the world there's always something new. Man Runs Mile to Express From Landslide LONDON.--Spurred on by terrible mind picturee of an express train crashing into a landslide, William Walker, a 40-year-old lineman, ran a mile over rough track in seven minutes to save the train.
