TWELVE MEDFOHP (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Tueiday, May 23. 1950 On the Side"8' f v Dutlin9 (DiitiibuNd k KIm featuraa SyndiuH, Inc.) tt miimi iiiimiiiitniM Love li a spiritual coupling of two louli, So much more excellent As it least relates Unto the body. Ben Jonson. One Manhattan shoe store spe cializes in shoes for women with very small feet. It carries sizes from two and a half to four and a half. No other sizes are car ried. It is said there are only two stores in the country catering exclusively to women with such feet. The other is in San Fran cisco. It's a Boyl Many couples with two or ' more sons keep hoping their next child will be a girl. Some keep on trying quite a while for a girl. As for example, Mrs. Nina Piazza, 31 years old, of London. Her first child was a boy. She wanted her second to be a girl. It wasn't. She kept on trying for a girl but with no luck. Finally she had six sons and no daugh ters. Then she decided to try just once more for a girl. And so what happened at the next bless ed event? Mrs. Piazza gave birth to triplets, three boys. Queries from clients. Q. Am I right in saying there was a mov ing picture titled 'Moonlight and Pretzels?" A. Quite right, sir. That was the name of a musi cal film produced in the nine teen thirties. Q. What is the long est period of time that a subma rine has been under water? A. Couldn't state definitely. How ever, the United States subma rine Pickerel stayed under wa ter and didn't come up for twenty-two hundred miles. If that isn't the record I would like to know what is. Briefly i he six most common coniui nations of first name and sur name in the United Slates are 1. Fred Smith: 2. Charles Jolin.-on; 3. Henry Brown; 4. William Jones; 5. Robert Wilson; 6. John Anderson. . . . Lettuce is listed in the "language of flowers." The message lettuce conveys is: "You are cold-hearted." Keep that in mind, young fellow. When a lovely lady fails to re spond kindly to the love you of fer, send her a head of lettuce. Girls develop most rapidly be tween the ages of 11 and 14. Boys between the ages of 14 and 17. That's why the girls are al ways the smartest pupils in grammar school and the dumb est in high school. ... It is claim ed hay fever is hereditary. One man of science goes so far as to say people suffering from hay fever should not marry as it is a terrible ailment to pass on to a child. Predictions Do you believe in palmistry? I can't say 1 do, but I have an open mind on the subject. Any way, MHi'k Twain, In his "Note book" published some years ago, stated: "In 1805 Cheiro, the palmist, examined my hand and said that in my sixty-eighth year 10M I would become suddenly rich. I was bankrupt and $04,0(10 in debt at the time. In 1903 Har per's took all my works and guaranteed me $25,000 a year for five years and gave me as surance the actual return would be double tha tfor many years." (Note: Cheiro did all right in predicting Mark I wains imure, but no with Mussolini's. He pre dicted 11 Duce would die peace fully in bed.) Sidelights How many different salads Tourist Host Week Designated by Club Portland, Ore.. May 23 (U.R) This week has been designated "Tourist Host Week" in Oregon by the Oregon Advertising club, Jack Matlack, committee chair man, announced. Matlack said purpose of tour ist hn.t week was to emphasize that entertainment of tourist guests is an important job for all Oregonians. Last year vacationists brought $100,000.0110 into the state. Mat lack said. The vacation industry. Mntlark snid. Is the third largest industry In the state. Going somewhere in California's -! HI I OS "" M J IHIHIMIIIII, can your wife make? Bebe Dan iels, erstwhile film star, has written a book titled "Two Hun dred and Eighty-two Ways of Making Salads." . . . Am asked if Kate Smith's first name is Katherine or Kathryn. It is Kathryn. . . . The best weight for a man over thirty who is six feet two inches tall is one hun dred and eighty-four. So states an expert on the subject. That gives me a break. I am just about six feet two inches tall and my weight is one hundred and nine ty pounds. I could easily take off six pounds. Paialng Bf Lin Howard, California sports man and auto magnate. Just re turned from a tour of Ireland, Franc and England. He was shopping for thoroughbreds. Lin says he likes Irish and British racing stock, but not French. I disagree. The French have some good distance horses. If you mat ed a French mare, a router, with an Irish stallion, a sprinter, you might get a useful racehorse out of the mating.
