DIAPERS. MMDA Chairman Francis Tolentino started it. That is, the wearing of adult diapers by street cleaners and his constables assigned at the Rizal Park during the Papal Mass. Now there are talks reaching The Ear that some department store managements are thinking of letting their salesgirls wear diapers to keep them in their posts during working hours despite the call of nature.

JOKE. An Ear informer said what reached this column in re the diapers was just a joke started by a beauty products salesman. And later picked up by some department store managers. "Joke, joke, joke," he said.
