God grant yon may inherit
Tour mother's looks and graceful
merit
And your poor worthless daddy's
spirit
Without his failings.
Burns.
(How wonderful it would be
if children only inherited Ihe
best points of both parents.
How about your good points?
Do you think you owe more to
your mother than your father?)
Most popular dish in the
U.S.A. is ham and eggs. On this
all food research experts, seem
agreed. Steak is second. Chicken
third. Eateries specializing in
any one of these items always
seem to do well. The first res
taurant I was ever in was Smith
& McNeil's in the Washington
Market section of downtown
Manhattan. I ordered hannend
eggs. Most people confine the
eating of ham and eggs to
breakfast. You are not really a
ham and eggs fan unless you oc
casionally have that dish for
dinner. I like my eggs over and
prefer hash browned potatoes to
French fried.
Redheads
As for red-haired women ac
quiring a tan. It is possible for
brown-eyed redheads to develop
a tan. This can be rarely accom
plished by other redheads. If
you see a blue-eyed or green-
eyed, red-haired woman with a
tan, she quite probably is a syn
thetic redhead.
Warning
Mexico now has some excel
lent highways for motoring. If
you do any touring south of the
border down Mexico way, keep
this in mind; if you run over a
cow and kill it you must, accord
ing to law, load the carcass on
your automobile and take it to
the nearest police station. Hit
and run drivers guilty of killing
a cow are severely punished.
Perhaps before you start on
your Mexican trip your wife and
yourself should practice, lifting a
cow into an automobile.
Please Note
Upon enlistment all WACs
are issued six pairs of nylons.
So I note it said. Doesn't say,
however, how long a WAC is
supposed to make a half dozen
nylons last. Wonder what hap
pens when a WAC has a run in
her stocking just as a high rank
ing officer approaches her dur
ing inspection? Must be an em
barrassing moment.

Dogs Given Treat
Of Choice Steaks
Portland U.PJ The Office
of Price Stabilization gave 30
pounds of choice steaks to the
Oregon Humane society as a
"dog day" treat for animals in
the pound, but the real nearly
didn't come off.
The meat had been picked up
during the last six months by
price enforcement agents who
bought it for "evidence" in their
investigations. It had been plac
ed in a frozen locker for most
of that time and was considered
unfit for human consumption.
Poundmasler Convinced
So, OPS Administrative As
sistant Bill DeCelle called the
pound to give the humane soci
ety the meat.
Poundmaster Edward S. Silva
apparently thought somebody
was trying to imitate Mike Di
Salle, former OPS director, and
that it was all a joke.
But after DeCelle convinced
Silva that he was not "DiSalle,"
they closed the deal and the
dogs got a haul of T-bones, ten
derloins, filet mignons and hamburger.
present at Ethel Barrymore's
first appearance as a star. That
was at the Garrick Theater, New
York, in 1901. The play was
"Captain Jinks of the Horse
Marines." Miss Barrymore was
21 at the time. Charles Frohman
was the producer. Being present
at this historical event unques
tionably makes the aforemen
tioned New Yorker eligible for
membership in the "I Was There
Club."
Among the things that inspire
an unusual feeling of helpless
ness are when your automobile
skids on a wet highway or an
earthquake. All you can do
when these things happen is to
sit there and hope for the best.
In Japan, which has more
quakes than any other country
in the world, there are said to be
fish which, by their acions, pre
dict the imminence of an earth
quake. These fish, kept in bowls,
start swimming around excited
ly and thrashing the water when
an earthquake is on the way.'
Seems there could be a good sale
for such fish in California. Of
course, at night a heavy sleeper
might not hear his earthquake
fish thrashing about the bowl.
However, he could tie one end
of a string on the tail of one
of the fish and the other end
to his toe. This would provide
him with an earthquake alarm.
Asking
Queries from clients. Q. I
claim the tune of "I'm Always
Chasing Rainbows" somewhat
resembles a piece by Frederic
Chopin. Where can I find that
in Chopin's works? A. Get
copy of Chopin's "Fantasie Im
promptu in C-Minor" and try it
on vour piano. Q. Has there
ever been a left handed catcher
in the major leagues? A. Joe
Wall of the New York Giants
Fred Tenney of the Boston
Braves and Clements of the
Phillies were all southpaw
catchers. However, Wall and
Tenney were both converted to
first basemen ' early in their
careers. A southpaw makes
bad catcher because every ball
he throws is likely to have
curve.

For the first time, the Army has permitted photographs of its new
Patton 48 medium tanks rolling from the Chrysler Delaware Tank Plant
assembly line. Military experts say this new spectacular tank will whip
any other tank in the world. This million square foot tank plant pro
duced and delivered its first Patton 48 to Army Ordnance on April 11,
1952, less than a year from the date the first steel was raised.
