Korea's Isle of Amazons
Lives on Ocean Harvest
IJou n y J r o c h f o r Cjenera ( W e t
As shallow-sea divers for pearl»,
shellfish, edible seaweed, and va
rious items of commerce, women
of Oriental coasts for centuries
have outdone the men.
Those of Cheju. 50 miles off Ko
rea's southern tip. have been nota
bly adept. An estimated 10,000 to
day live by harvesting ocean arres,
while their men in some cases tend
the children and prepare the meals,
notes the National Geographic so
ciety.
From this feminine monopoly has
grown the tradition of Cheju as an
Amazon isle. It took positive form
in the West about 1900 when a
traveler brought back the tale that
the island until 1850 had been popu
lated solely by women and young
children in storied Amazon style.
In the 1946 census. Cheju counted
276,148 inhabitants, virtually all on
the coasts of the 45-by-20-mile oval
of land. There were 113 women to
each 100 men on Cheju in 1946,
whereas on the Korean mainland
men outnumbered women.
Cheju port on the north coast is
the island’s capital and chief cen
ter. counting 30,000 inhabitants.
They live largely in crude, thatch-
ed-roof huts of mud and stone. An
cient walls to defend against pirats
attack still stand along the shore.

Life of Samuel Colt
After being expelled from Am

The ship's paddle wheel gave him
an idea for the revolving pistol
cylinder. At the age of 14 he whit
tled out a model and it worked.
Later, he quit his father's dye
plant to seek his fortune as "D r.
Coult". In 1832 he sent hi3 plan of
a gun to the U. S. patent office,
and was awarded a patent in 1836.
After the original company failed,

Basic Recipes
"IS THERE any simple way to
learn how to be a good cook?" asks
a young woman now starting out
to keep house. Older homemakers
have asked me the same question
Just as often, so the problem seems
to be a common one.
The answer Is simply yes. The
method Is to learn certain basic
food preparations, then to vary
these, and you certainly w ill have
a good storehouse from which to
select for meals of all kinds—for
fum ily and for guests

recipes so well that It becomes as

Bake popovers while you heat

Sliced leftover roast heated in

is excellent when placed over piping
hot noodles.
Lamb stew takes on a different
character when you add two cups
of canned tomatoes in place of the
water. A clove of garlic, placed on
a toothpick so that it ’s easy to re
move when cooking is finished, adds
a touch of delicious flavor.
