Where do we eat?
The western Oregon traveler
has some wonderful placet from
which to choose, but he makes
his choice under a handicap.
The right one isn't always In
the right place.
The flossy new motel groups
are like clusters 01 musnruuim
long the main highway. The
nromoters big and small
have found good income in them
but there is no comparable
urge la restaurants.
a Ida nnlikft motels, outward
appearances are rarely indica
tive of food quality, except for
the general rule of cleanliness
and possibly price indication.
Who is to tell which one is
Filling station attendants fre-
Juently seem to De Dngm young
amily men who rarely eat out.
Motel owners, however, usually
can name one or two.
At other times of day, it's up
to a compromise of your tired
ness. Mom's headache and un
happiness over how her hair
looks. Junior's hunger and the
pure luck of where you happen
to be when the most of you get
hungry.
You'll eat too much when
traveling anyway. It's a good
idea to look for clean places.
The cleanest, of course, frequent
ly turn out to be expensive, and
when you order the full course
dinner you hate to send any of
It back to the kitchen.
If you remember the first rule
of traveling, you'll be happier.
Don't overeat.
Unless you are going on a
vacation and to stay In one cot
tage in one spot for a period of
time, doing your own cooking
is difficult.
Most of the beach resorts pro
vide cottages with cooking
facilities as do a goodly propor
tion of the inland motels which
have been In existence for some
time. With the new ones, how
ever, the trend Is away from
kitchens. They cost more to in
stall, and cost much to keep
clean after departing travelers.
There Is one new trend, only
beginning to come into Oregon.
That is the motel with combined
restaurant The bid is obviously
for hotel trade which likes to
eat good food without having
to go too far tor It
One we found at Roseburg, a
luxuriously beautiful place with
flowers, carpets and lnnerspring
mattresses, offers simple break
fasts in your room and room

night.

They serve only breakfasts and
dinners In their "tack room."
Prices range from tl for ham,
bacon, sausage or egxs with hoi
cakes, fruit juice and coffee to

A similar breakfast at a coun
ter in Uenoe Bay was 90 cents.
Hot cakes, sausages and coffee
with tomato Juice was 00 cents
in Bend at one place, but a four,
ounce glass of orange juice was
30 cents! It was frozen orange
Juice at that.
ii you use your vitamin
fresh, we suggest vou carry
your own tack of oranges, ruin
your own iiiumunuu wun uic
neellnj and dribble 1uice on the
dish towel you have providently
taken along. It's almost impos
sible to get freshly-squeezed
orange Juice In restaurants.
They generally cook eggs to
order, however, make their
coffee carefully and always pro
vide pasteurized milk. Most res
taurants could definitely take
some lessons from the milling
companies on making hot cakes,
though.
Few restaurants pay much
attention to needs of children
beyond having a high chair
handy. However, some of the
best of them will serve half por
tion plates at reduced prices.
Feeding the family dug. should
you be foolish or suft-ht-arted
enough to take him along, will
be a problem. If you have a pan
for him and an extra can of ditf;
food or two, he should fare all
right. It is amazing how co
operative waitresses are to help
you take the scraps out to him.
"Interesting" eating places
are scattered throughout the
state, with most of them clus
tered in large towns.
There are always hamburgers
available, with many of the
roadside eating places making
use of frozen food storage cab
inets to assure the freshness of
their meat.
And If you should happen
along at the right time at the
little Inn at the Sea Lion caves,
near Florence, perhaps there
will be a hot apple pic (with ice
cream, of course) fresh out of
the oven.
Theater Children Receive Warnings On Swelled Heads
New York (U.R) Parents
who are planning theatrical ca
reers for their children are warn
ed that child actresses and act
ors must be kept "very busy" if
they are to retain natural pos
sibilities. Frankie Thomas Jr., famed
child actor of the 1930s, who rose
to stardom In the hit piny and
movie "Wednesday's Child,"
warned that success could be
"dangerous" for stage and film
moppets.
"In the theater, success can
come overnight," he said. "It's
difficult for an adult to keep his
feet on the ground when It
comes, but for a child It's even
toucher.
More Than Ever
"Today, there are more chll
dnrn than ever In show busi
ness. There are 15 or 20 on
Broadway right now. Scores
more are on the movie lots. The
parents of these children should
do everything they can to keep
them from becoming 'swell
headed' at their little successes.
"Once a child actor or any
actor begins to tnke the good
notices too seriously, his work
begins to deteriorate."
lie said a child with an inflat
ed ego would find it difficult to
adjust himself to the problems
of adult life.
"To stay clear of this danger
which I think is a very serious
one for any person going into
show business I think U s nec
essary to keep busy with studies,
sports and olher activities," he
snld.
"It Is also necessmy to have a
sane attitude about commend
able notices. The child actor
should be told that each suc
cess is Just a minor stepping
stone in his career and that he
should forget it and look ahead
to other roles and other suc
cesses.

In the Day's News
By FHANK JENKINS
From Philadelphia:
"A 39-year-old research chem
ist of Russian extraction is held
here in S100.000 bail charged
with receiving atomic bomb se
crets from Dr. Klaus Fuchs and
turning them over to Soviet Russia."
THE poor devil s name is Harry
Gold. He seems to be dif
ferent from Fuchs, who was a
top atomic scientist himself.
Gold is a bio-chemist. He has
been working on a heart research
program financed by the gov
ernment. His work apparently
has no connection with atomic
research, and he himself seems
to know nothing in particular
about atomic science.
As nearly as one can ludge
from the early reports, he is just
intermediary. He iook spy
stuff from Fuchs and passed it
on to the Russians. Among other
things, he seems to be a colorless
sort of individual.
He was therefore, you see, EX
ACTLY THE KIND OF PER
SON FUCHS NEEDED, because
he was the sort upon whom sus
picion would not readily fall.
IN THE preceding paragraph,
the term "poor devil" is used
advisedly. Gold is quoted by the
FBI as having said when he was
taken into custody:
I thought I would be helping
nation whose final aims I ap
proved along the road to indus
trial strength. Particularly was
I taken with the Idea that what
ever I did would GO TO
HELP MAKING LIVING CON
DITIONS FAR MORE ADVANCED."
THAT, of course, was back in
1945. In 1945, a lot of peo
ple were deceived as to Russia.
But even in 1945 it was becom
ing evident that the Russian com
munist system was NOT a great
advance along the road to human
freedom and opportunity. Any
one who thought so was just a
rattle-brained thinker.

make so nast. He had a green
car of that make. So he blew his
top.
He called the cops, climbed
into the radio prowl car that
answered his summons and he
and the policeman chased the
driver of the green car pell-mell
through the streets. It got away.
About the time it got away,
Harry began to think. Maybe it
wasn't his car. So he went back
to where he had parked his bus,
and there it was, right where he
had left it, safe and sound.
He had merely jumped to a
wrong conclusion.
SO MANY people jump to
conclusions, including our
parlor pinks who have jumped to
the conclusion that communism,
as practiced in Russia, is a great
forward movement and ought to
