Then she states her problem and explains that she shrinks from •public exploitations' but 'if this membership helps you, to h with how I feel.' On the other hand, 'if it just means signing my name to a list of maudlin females, ugh-um ! I'd love to meet you after or between shows and run you out into the Jersey countryside in the old yellow roadster for some lunch or such ; or send gardenias to the stage door, but the very sound of a •fan' gives me shivery flutters. Yours with something far more substantial than a fan " Instead of killing the patient, the Perkins treatment, when correctly and judiciously administered, cures the listener of yellow jaundice, spots before the eyes, a run-down-at-the-heel appearance, sinking spells, inability to see the funny side of life and general mental and constitutional debility. For further information and directions, tune in on NBC Stations WJZ and WEAF or address the Perkins Laboratories. Ltd.. 257 Madison Road, Scarsdale. New York. Here in his immaculate Barbasolarium, Perkins, the Mirthmaster. sits in unrubbed Barbasolitude weaving witty ditties to glorify the great American chin and advising how to keep it in hairless happiness. Thanks R. D. Readers I OWN KINGSON, of Chicago, who wrote a letter to our Voice of the Listener department, stating that she "knew Wayne King," was surprised to receive letters from listeners in all parts of the country asking for further information. Now she has decided to "tell all" in a book which will be published soon. She writes in part: "At first I gave very little thought to them (the letters) but since they are still coming to me I find there is a sense of duty upon my part to indicate some appreciation toward my new correspondents who came to me through reading Radio Digest. "'Were I to answer the many questions which are asked of me it would take a book . . . and right here let me say I am now working on a book which I am dedicating to Wayne King. I think all of his admirers will enjoy reading it. "I am happy in dedicating this book to him because of his active, beautiful and dauntless mind ... so everlastingly >eeking unfoldment through his music . . "To all who have given me pleasant thoughts and kind considerations, and to ihose who have written me whereby the Radio Digest was the medium. I thank you most sincerely. lows Ki.ngson. 200o McLean Avenue. Chicago. 111." Miss Kingson does not state whether her book will contain some of the inter esting letters that Wayne King must inevitably receive from his many admirers. Wouldn't "Letters to a Kint;" be a swell title for it"'
