And to her, ma'am, you're known as "Mrs. Shorts." Things HAVE to get better. KEEP COOL: I must say I am impressed with Jim Hess' contribution an ad published by a suburban funeral home, an ad which reads: "When we installed air-conditioning in our establishment, we must confess that in a sense we were 'keeping up with the Time has taught us, however, that there are many sound psychological reasons why air-conditioning is a 'must' in a funeral home.

At a time fraught with so many tensions and tightly keyed emotions, the evenly modulated temperature actually has a therapeutic value in helping to relax taut nerves. We would not be without it. This is just one of the many comforts found in our funeral home." Go on, go on! What are the others? QUIPS THAT PASS IN THE NIGHT: Skip Turner (do I have your name right, sir?) says a doctor-friend was called at 2 o'clock one Sunday morning to make a house call to administer to a sick child. When done, the doctor was asked by the mother: "How much do I owe you?" The doctor asked for $10. "That's ridiculous!" she said.

"What's your husband do?" asked the doctor. He's a plumber. "What would he charge if he came out on a call at 2 a.m.?" Said the lady: "He wouldn't come out." The doctor tried again: "Well, if he WOULD come out, what would he charge?" The lady said: "Twenty dollars but you don't realize the training he had to go through." THE CITY HALL CRANK: The other day, Mayor Ivan Allen's office parking meter a lamp, given him by Mrs. Allen, which lights when you drop a coin in its slot became jammed with a coin and wouldn't work. Secretary Betty Robinson duly reported this to a secretary in traffic engineer Karl Bevins' office: "The traffic meter in the mayor's office is jammed." You can guess the rest: Five minutes later, the mayor's aide, Capt.

George Royal, got a phone call from traffic's secretary saying she had a crackpot call about a traffic meter that wouldn't light up in the mayor's office. CONVERSATION PIECES: Thanks to Jack Williams, I learn that Sunday was the start of "Constitution Week." Read it. Nickel a copy. And the 14th opens "Planned Parenthood Week." Plan to be a parent.

The State department's motives are obscure. The Fischer affair may have been merely a case of bureaucratic bumbling, or it may have been a small probe by the CIA designed to test Communist cultural defenses. Whatever the case, no one anticipated a violent Communist response. Compared to "Hello Dolly," Fischer is scarcely more than a popgun in the American cultural arsenal. At most, the Soviets were expected to hit back by throwing a couple of touring American engineers out of Dnieper-petrovsk.

In banning "Hello Dolly" Moscow abruptly confronted Washington with a cultural challenge of the deepest gravity. The men here who favor lobbing one into the men's room of the Kremlin are already urging a five-year prohibition against the Bolshoi Ballet, and Sol Hurok has been warned that "we're eyeball to eyeball under the complexion bulbs." 6 a il 1 a i warn 1 ttcv. Vernon Broylcs Sodom's Fall and Destruction Still Has Its Meaning for Vs The name "Sodom" has been inscribed in the memory of man as a symbol of human wickedness and of the judgment of God. It is remembered because of its connection with Lot through whom God sought to deal mm 1 i with Sodom in mercy instead of judgment. Lot was a farmer who decided to move into the city to live.

He had done well in the country. Then he decided he wanted to enjoy the comforts and pleasures of a modern, prosperous urban community. It didn't work out well. In the first place he could not enjoy the city. Sodom was known for its wide open evil.

It had all the vices of "prosperous ease." The record says that it laid out its immorality for all to see. All this weighed on the conscience of Lot who was a good man at heart. Then he was captured in an enemy raid on Sodom. He was rescued, but the experience certainly shook him up. Finally, God warned him that Sodom was to be destroyed for its wickedness.

Lot was told to warn his fellow citizens of the coming judgment of God. He did, and I I Li mj'y'a, 1 4 1 i v. 4. ni. 11 ma i aami ti we read that he seemed to them as one that mocked.

They thought he was unbalanced. The idea that God would really judge men for their sins, especially in a wonderful place like Sodom seemed silly. Then the blow fell as fire and brimstone destroyed Sodom in a volcanic eruption. There are some things in this story that bear thinking about today. Are the evils of our day crime, immorality, delinquency, civil violence, war the result of bad environment and poor heredity? Or, on the other hand, are they sins against God? Are these things problems to be solved or are they sins to be repented of? What about the exclusion of God as a vital interest in our public and private lives and institutions?
