THAT MAKES BEST FOOPS FRESHER EVEN THAN HOME-MADE MAYONNAISE ! TRAVEL IS CHEAP F TRIP TO EUROPE Returning home after spending the past nine months trsvellng in this country and Europe. Mr. and Mrs Angus L. Bowmer of Ashlsnd are firmly convinced that Journeya to far countries need not be reserved for those of great wealth but are easily within the reach of persons of mod erate meens. Mr. and Mrs. Bowmer left the Rogue River vslley late last summer, sailing from Seattle through the Panama oanal to New York city, where they spent six weeks. From New York they continued to London, Englsnd, in time for the Christmas holidays. Excursions to the English country side. Including a visit to the 8hakea peare festival at Stratford, were added to a schedule of touring and histori cal study In London. Bowmer. who Inaugurated and directs the annual Ashland Shakespearean productions, spent most of his time In the Eng lish metropolis delving Into Shakes pearean records and theories of the Elizabethan theatre to aid In devel opment of the Ashland project, Mrs, Bowmer, who aids tn the pro ductions, also apent much of her time In study of historical background or the Elizabethan theatre. Although they had not contem plated a visit to the continent pre vlous to their arrival In England, the Bowmera decided early this spring to extend their Itinerary and departed for Prance. After visiting Paris, they continued south to Italy, atopping off at various cities and historical apots. No for mal schedule waa carried out. the two lingering wherever they wlahed. After viewing Italy. Mr. and Mrs. Bowmer sailed for the famed Isle of Capri, where they, stayed for a month. working on notes gathered In London and enjoying the acenlc beauties of the Island. After the Caprl sojourn, they re turned leisurely to London to remain a few weeks before sailing for Amer ica. Another several weeks was apent in new York and from there the Bowmera went to Detroit, where they purcnaeed a car ror the final lap of their Journey. Vlslte to Washington, D. c and numerous other cities were made during the transcontinental trip. Upon arriving at the const, thev atopped tn Hollywood and Pasadena oerore continuing home. Although the Rogue River valley seemed high ly inviting Just now. the Bowmers In tend repeating their travels at the earliest opportunity, alwaya provid ing "the whole place lan't blown up by then." Bowmer said. Although emphasis waa placed on Inexpensive traveling. Mr. and Mra. Bowmer pointed out that never at any time were they inconvenienced or uncomfortable and that accommo dations, while not luxurious, were en tirely adequate. "The food waa marvelous," Bowmer said. "We never had anything on the continent that wasn't good. Whereas in this country and In England vou can't always be sure of getting good food outside of first class restaurants I mm abec(f . . . given away absolutely FREE with the purchase of 2 bottles of CERTO This apodal offor mod to acquaint mora womtn with CIRTO, tha pura fruit pct1n that makat all fruits ll parfacfly with only H minute boll I HERE'S your chance to ftet some atunnlot salad forks, absolutely free!

Davis, a firmer of Wood bury. Tent... was held by author., ties io connection with the death of his wife, which a coroner's jurv blamed on an illegal operation Davis denied s?nll and hotels, that doean't setm to be true In the places we visited." Tmln travel in Europe, he admit ted, can be uncomfortable it long Journeys are made with no stopovers but as passengers are quite free to take as many stopovers as deslr$d with no extra expense, such prolonged trips are unnecessary and shorter ones give no cause for complaint. A lack of expert knowledge of dif ferent languages encountered offers absolutely no handicap to discourses, Bowmer said. Even with a total lack of anything but English, the traveler oan make himself understood almost anywhere, Bowmer explained. Also, he pointed out, visitors usually man age to pick up a hodge-podge of for eign, words that enables them to un derstand others as well as to express themselves. The Bowmers believe It Is a fallacy to consider travel expensive. As an example of Its relative cheapness, they cite the fact that upon their return to London after spending two month? traveling on the continent, they discovered the extra trip plus numerous purchases had coat them several dollars less than the amount required for living In London during that period. Mr. and Mrs. Bower conferred with numerous drama authorities and vis ited community playhouses through out their route, comparing progress of the Ashland theater with others of similar scope. They report much Interest on the part of everyone con tacted In development of the south ern Oregon Shakespearean theatre. Salem Octogenarian Wins Bet by Walking SALEM, June 4.
