On The Side
By E. V. Durling
(Distributed by King Features Syndicate, Inc.)
The French are the world's
greatest customers of strong
drink. You can't style Ameri
cans as moderate drinkers. Yet
the French drink eight times as
much alcoholic liquors as Amer
icans. Great majority of people
in this country do not start their
serious drinking until the cock
tail hour. The average French
man starts drinking early in the
morning and continues to im
bibe all day. The French bistros
open their bars at 5:30 in the
morning and are soon packed
with customers having their
first drink of the day.
Horses and Women
If a man does not try to kiss
a girl on the first date it usually
is because he is trying to be
diplomatic. If he doesn't try to
kiss her on the second date, that
it not a good sign. It is possi
ble he will not make a good hus
band. The men who make the
best husbands are those who
find the women they admire ir
resistible. On this all experts
are agreed.
Remembering
"When speaking of great writ
ers of popular songs," writes a
Chicagoan, "don't forget that
genius from Joplin, Mo., Percy
Wenrich, who wrote more than
a hundred song hits, among them
"Put on Your Old Gray Bon
net,' 'When .You Wore a Tulip'
j and 'On Moonlight Bay.' "
.Sidelights
"Most Pisces (February 20
March 20) women are flat chest
ed," writes a Bostonian. "They
make a mistake in trying to
look like Scorpios by false
means. Be better if they deveU
oped their personalities to in
terest men" . . . This country's
best potato salad is made in the
delicatessen shops of Manhat
tan. Also the best sandwiches.
My favorite sandwich is ham
and Swiss cheese on rye. With
a little potato salad on the side.
Mood for Love
What is there about a voyage
by. sea that puts so many wo
men in the mood for love? Why
do such a great number of fe
males become involved in heat
ed love affairs with comparative
strangers while on ocean trips?
Is it the moonlight,' the sea air,
or what?. A.phychoanalyst com
menting on the situation said
"Women are emotionally affect
ed by the rythmic movement of
the ship and the feeling of be
ing absent from reality."
Please Note
The record for living ex-hus
bands is six, held by Arline
Judge. What is . the record for
living ex-fiances? -A San Fran
ciscan says she was engaged to
eight times before she married.
All her former fiances are liv
ing. None died of a broken
heart. She doesn't says if all
her fiances gave her engage
ment rings. Also whether or not
she gave the losers their, rings
back. That could be interesting.
Real Stars
Darryl F. Zanuck, the con
scientiously dynamic film pro
ducer recently said, "There are
no more than half a dozen real
international film stars. These
include Ava Gardner, Gregory
Peck, Marlon Brando and Mari
lyn Monroe." Mr. Zanuck de
clined to name the other two.
Who would you say they were?
