By Jack Scott

The man who runs the place
where I get my. magazines sends
me a clipping from a trade paper
under the heading What They’re-
Reading.
Contains the news, if such it is,
that periodicals dealing with
astrology remain the most
consistent sellers, topped only by
the true confession things for the
the little women and the so-called

“men’s magazines’’, mostly
naughty, for the boys.
“T) am- amazed,"’ my friend

writes, ‘at the variety of people,

ofall walks of life, who seem to be

seeking solace or guidance ‘from
the professional star-gazers
Surely it is true, as old Mencken
once observed, that nobody. ever
went broke underestimating the

intelligence of the North Ameri-
can public. ”

Not that this is anything
new, of course. From the days
when the Roman. soothsayers
poked about messily in the en-
trails -of birds for a. sneak
preview of the future there’s
been a generous supply of vain
or fearful or simply ignorant
customers to keep any self-
“appointed voodoo man_ in
business.

the top world news story of the
day.

This unhappy fellow was an
advanced alcoholic whose sole
income for his liquid supplies
came from searching his pickled
brain for cosmic bulletins. The
chilling fact. that his stumbling
around in the intinite meadows of
the universe may have influenced
the lives of a good many of our
readers was either a huge joke or
a small tragedy. Either way it
was the blind leading the blind.

Perhaps. the secret: of the
continuing, popularity of these
magazines ties: in the. basic
feeling of insecurity of these
times or it may simply. be the
age-old hunger. for inflating
the ego.

. Anyone, you see, with 35 cents
to spare, can find by. a. fast
consultation with the star-gazer
that he’s really a gaint among
men, whatever his wife or anyone
else says.

Take my own case. I am

right here that. I am = Quiet,

and a tower of courage ‘in
moments of adversity. In fact,
even with a careful reading of
this entire. magazine, I can’t
discover in my self anything that
isn’t downright wonderful.

It would seem, too, that the
‘‘readings’’ might be a swell way
to dodge any individual responsi-
bility for what the fates have in
store,

In my own case yesterday
they promised highly
satisfactory dealings with
others, tomorrow [ must. do
everything possible to —in-
crease my financial holdings,
on Wednesday things are right
for me to make. my relations
with my superiors more
amicable and lucrative and_on
Thursday things will be just
dandy for promoting  in-
spirational ideas. So it goes.

It isn’t strength of character
that prevents me from obeying
the advice, really, but just the
suspicion that it may be coming
from that poor old boozer who
used to read the stars in the

bottoms of empty glasses.
