PITTSBURGH POST-GAZETTE: SATURDAY, JULY 24, 194S -What Do Voice of Broadway Lyons Den By Leonard Lyons About Men and Women? By ErnestE. Blau Jus a hop, skip anTTTNl to West Fifty fan? Walk a few enth avenue and SI I I I Ye Old Summer Opera SOUVENIRS of Raymond M. Smith, retired printing executive, include a number of rare old theater programs. Among them is a "programme" for the 1896 summer season of the Casino Comic Opera Company, which held forth in the Casino theater, Schenley Park. Who Are More Suspicious Men or Women? Not long ago a doctor got a divorce because his wife was too suspicious of him.

He said it was bad enough to have her pawing through his medical bag, looking for love notes but when she insisted on going out on sick calls with him at 3 a. m. that did it! Suspicion and jealousy, I'm told, show feelings of insecurity, inferiority and a lot of little gals have feelings like that. And who wouldn't when the opposite sex can be your whole meal ticket can' earn a.much better living than you can and roam around much more freely and get into more temptation? But don't think the men, for all their seeming confidence, are so sure of their hold on the women, either. Many a fellow feels inferior to some girl.

If he feels she's more clever than he, the more he's crazy about her, the less he trusts her. That's why Othello strangled Desde-mona and why the Crusaders locked up their girl friends before they rode away to fight the infidel. So it's probably a draw. In fact, a little suspicion may be a good thing now and then both sexes can be too darn trusting. I read where an upstate woman -Ey Dorothy Kilgallen- it's enough to make a lone cowboy feel he's home on the range just to set eye on the rugged riggings that dominate those diggings.

You are usually fond of ease, but when you see that you can gain good rewards, you can put your many talents to work on the job. The Leo men and women like praise, luxury and enjoyment like these things well enough to exert themselves to get them if it comes to the worst. By the way, don't place too much dependence upon romances in here; you are apt to be disappointed.

Today's Watchword Well, I heard a young girl actually weep the other day because she was not beautiful. Someone had told her so, rather harshly, and she was in the midst of realizing that she was not a Venus. But how many beauties are there in a group, and are they always the most popular? No, for they are usually conceited, unwilling to be obliging and also somewhat apt to think themselves superior to other human beings. The girl who is most generally liked is the adaptable and merry companion; there is no substitute for good humor. Remember, girl3, that there are some men wise enough to know that a heart of gold is worth a dozen bright red lipsticks-they say so among, themselves.

Although his wife and son dine there 1 a rly, Gould refuses to patronize the place be-cause it serves meat. Leonard Lyons This week the restaurateurs will advertise: "Simon Gould does not eat here because our steaks are too tempting." LEGEND: In reviewing Evelyn Waugh's new book, the editors of Time stated that when Waugh and Randolph Churchill were in Yugoslavia during the war they reported that Tito really was a woman. Tito, at the time, was operating under several aliases because he wanted his identity kept secret. One day, on the Isle of Vis off the Dalmatian coast, the Britishers went swimming.

Tito arrived, wearing his heavy uniform. Although it was a warm day, Tito was the only one there who refused to shed his clothes and go swimming. Waugh and Churchill joked about this, and Waugh suggested: "Maybe he's a woman?" That's how the legend began. CHANGE: The sudden switch of Leo Durocher from the Brooklyn Dodgers to the New York Giants has had repercussions at the offices of United Artists. Laraine the film star-wife of Durocher, always accompanies her husband on the road-tours of the ball club.

United Artists' press department had arranged a series of interviews for in connection with the movie, "My Dear Secretary." These interviews were with newspapers in the National League cities, timed for the Dodgers' road tour. United Artists now is busy re-arranging the interviews, to fit them into the New York Giants' schedule. SUCCESS: One of the national magazines published a series of articles about the most successful men in America. The question asked of them was: "To what do you attribute your, sucess?" The magazine refused to publish the reason ascribed by Albert D. Lasker, who said that he became successful as the result of a dice-game.

When he was 18 years old, Lasker got a job with Lord Thomas. He didn't like it, and was about to quit. Then he played in a dice- Your Stars Today By Marion Drew three from the Alvin (1896-98) "Handsomest Theatre in America;" a couple from the Grand Opera House (1897-99), and one front the Duquesne (1897-98), which was offering "Monte Cristo Romantic Drama by Alex.

Besides the regular operatic performances there were "sacred concerts' every Sunday afternoon and evening with vocal and instrumental numbers by Prof. Eugene Smith's Unrivaled Orchestra." Air-Condilioned The old Casino, believe it or not, was air-conditioned, too. Mr.

Four large blowers keep np a constant supply of air that has been reduced to temperature of 65 degrees." Free Parking Oldtime summer opera fans who purchased reserved seats before 5 p. m. were furnished with "car tickets good on any of the lines of the Consolidated Traction Company to and from the Casino." And there were special parking facilities for those who preferred to provide their own transportation.

Smith's collection include Success By Elmer Roger Babson has said that the secret of success is: "Be willing to go the second mile." Mr. a b-son can no doubt give hundreds of examples of how this success secret helped individuals and businesses to achieve success. My own files have so Elmer Wheeler many "case histories" that it is difficult to pick out one to illustrate this success secret. But I think the story of George S. Parker will do very well.

Many years ago Parker was a clerk in a pen shop. Fountain pens were new at the time. And many of them failed to work. The pens this young man sold were not guaranteed. He was tinder no obligation to repair them.

He "only worked there."

He had to borrow money to pay this loss. This meant that he had to stay with Lord Thomas until he earned enough to repay the $1,500 loan. He stayed with the firm, learned to like the job, and was there for 44 years. After the first 10 years in the job he became the owner of Lord Thomas and made it one of the largest and most powerful advertising agencies in the world.

This repair work was done free and on his own time.

He only wanted to help his customers. But he became such an expert repairman that he soon knew more about fountain pens than the manufacturer. "I can make a better pen than this myself," he thought. In his spare time he did perfect a new type pen, scraped up $80.00 for a patent, and went into the pen business. That clerk who went the extra mile was George S.

Parker, founder of the Parker Pen Company, whose pens are now sold in every country on earth except Russia and Japan. Whatever your job try "going the second mile." It not only makes you feel better. It not only makes your boss and your customers like you better. It also pays off. H.
