Several years ago bar tenders were expected to get 25 drinks from a fifth. Now the size of the drink has been de creased to less than an ounce. Not only that, the practice of watering whiskies has greatly increased. Watering whisky serv ed by a bar or restaurant is, of course, a criminal offense. It is obtaining money under false pre tenses and also a form of tax evasion. Passing By Charlie Berns. Elegantly at tired and studiously debonair millionaire restaurateur.

Incidentally, isn't it surprising nobody has ever thought of calling a cafe, "Tom and Jerry's"? Asides . How sharp are you on the details of United States history?

The "finnan1 .was inspired by the name of Findon, a town in Scotland, near Aberdeen. Residents of this town have long been celebrated for their skill in preparing finnan haddie for the market. Horses and Women The highest paid people on the sales staff of a department store are the salesmen in the women's shoe department. It takes a highly intelligent man of strong character and great patience to successfully sell shoes to females. He must also be of very good appearance and possessed of a bit of charm. Women have 86 -different types of feet so fitting them is quite a task. They all want to make their feet look smaller. In this connection it is interesting to note that some of the most suc cessful women in the history ox the world had large feet. Ignorance I heard one Manhattan taxi driver ask another where the "Little Church Around the Cor ner" was. An astonishing display oi ignorance by a cab driver. In London a man can't get a license to drive a cab until he passes an examination which proves he knows the location of every important - hotel,- club, church and place of interest in the entire area of greater Lon don. Pleas Not Bricklayers are the highest paid hourly craft in the world. There are about 130,000 brick layers in the United States. While admitting their hourlv nav is unusually high, the bricklayers say a high yearly wage is im possible because the work in most sections is seasonal. Whv doesn't a bricklayer master an additional trade that would keep him busy in the winter? Surely a man with intellieence enough to become a bricklayer should have no difficulty in becoming a carpenter, electrician or plumb er. Helpful Books A pair of books many people might find helpful are those titled "How to Protect Your Pat ent" and "How to Secure Copy right." Both are published by a New York outfit that specializes in law books. If interested in quire at nearest bookshop han dling legal material. Give Them Credit - Give credit by name to the models who pose for advertise- Th Good Neighbor ... Frank Curry, who lives two doors down the street from me in town, is a kind husband and indulgent father. He is a neigh bor who visits the sick, hauls old ladies to church, keeps his dog at home and never forces the people in his block to be a captive audience to baseball broadcasts. His wife and their two teen-agers are as good as Frank to live nigh. We love them all. Then comes the deer season. Frank misses no minute of it. His pet hunting grounds are a 14,000-acre tree farm that neigh bors on the boom-pond shack where I hole up at odd times to pound out tall tales on my 1909 Model Oliver Visible typewrit er. I've seen Frank working as a good neighbor here. Frank started coming up the Polewater as a boy 'with his fa ther, around 40 years ago. Vir gin timber stood tall and thick on the land. The only deer to be hunted were up along the streams, or on the burns of 1902 or later in high open country. Gat and Lock ... The hunters then, as now, started many forest fires. This made trouble smoke up between hunters and timberland owners. Most of the owners were farm ers. Some hunters claimed a sort of roving squatter's right if there could be such a thing to camp out and hunt deer any old place. 1 Then the loggers surged in with saw and ax. The giants fell. The best timber was yarded out and rafted to the mills, thou sands of feet of cheaper logs were left to be burned as slash or to rot. Browse grew on the cutovers. Then for years the hunting up the Polewater was better than it had ever been be fore the haryest. Meanwhile the Douglas fir seedlings came up above the stumps, slash, browse and weeds. Fires left black holes in the green crop, and some of them were hunters' fires. But the owners kept the property,- pay ing taxes, also paying protection fees to state forestry and the forest fire association. By 1940 the older burns and cutovers had stands of pole and piling trees on the lower sites. War demand brought the log gers in again. Old grades were made into new roads. In due course the Polewater Tree Farm was certified. The roads were gated as part of the protection program. Frank Curry and other hunters who came back every deer season found locks on gates and closure notices posted on favorite hunting grounds. This they did not like. Natch. But in the main the deer hun ters were Frank Currys. Good neighbors in their home towns, good sportsmen in the field, re specters of property rights and the laws of property. The gate breakers were a minority. Red Hat Day ... The Frank Currys have work ed for the right of sportsmen, as they see them, through their or ganizations and according to law. The vandals, drunks, poachers, thieves, juvenile and parental de linquents, arsonists and litter ments. Many people would like to know the names of these beau tiful creatures. That's what I suggested several years ago. I now note the giving of . such credit is being seriously consid ered. This brings to mind my other suggestion as to chorus girls. I suggest the ladies of the ensemble be given numbers as football and baseball players are so their identity can be learned by consulting the program. 1 . v i iiuiren 0-10 Lb.

Excbtira bugs among the hunting hosts are a black blight to the Frank Currys the true sportsmen, as they are menaces to tree farm owners and to the managers of public forests. Now all hands are moving for ward together in joint programs that hold great promise for the use of tree farms for hunting and other recreation, and for in creasing control of the rifle-packing revolutionists and outlaws who go to the woods in that deer season. The cooperative groups in Oregon are sponsoring a Gov ernor's Red Hat Day, on which an effort will be made to get the signature of every Oregon hunter to a pledge "to be law abiding, to respect the rights and property of others, to be careful with fire and firearms." Another program of the kind is in the works for Washington. I have faith in them because I have faith in men like Frank Curry, my good neighbor. LACK OF SLEEP BLAMED New York U.R) Dr. Sam uel Henry Prince, of King's col lege, Halifax, N.S., came up with a new reason Sunday for New York's high juvenile delinquency rate. Dr. Prince told. the con gregation at St. Stephen's Prot estant Episcopal church that one cause for the crime rate may be that heat and noise keeps New Yorkers from getting enough sleep. Argentina Church Hours Pass Quietly Buenos Aires (U.R) Church going hours passed quietly Sun day in comparison with a week ago when demonstrations result ed in injuries to six policemen and arrest for more than 100 Catholics. The only reminder of church state friction was an unsigned editorial in the Peronist organ Democracia. It said Argentina's only troubles in the ' past two weeks have been "street disord ers and provocative pastoral acts" which it blamed on "those who have the deaths and the sorrows of the wounded of June 16 on their consciences." June 16 was the date of the navy-led revolt. Britons Opposed To Capital Punishment By UNITED PRESS London (U.R) The mass circulation Daily Mirror report ed today that Britons are two-to-one against capital punish ment. The newspaper with 4,500,000 circulation said more than 30,000 readers answered an opinion poll following the controversial hang ing last week of blonde killer Ruth Ellis. The paper said 20, 509 voted against the death pen alty and 11,057 in favor. The case of the 28-year-old model who shot one of her two lovers stirred a storm of pro test against capital punishment.

(Q) "My son, who is 13 years old. has never bn a healthy boy and. as a result. m am nas nTr been abl 1 play 9 a mas and do many of th things boys of his. ag did. Con sequently, h has had few friends. In tmmasamS past two Dr. Hexlock months a has gotten into a crowd of boys who might b called "bad act on.' They don't actually do Suian Ball Remains In Critical Condition Hollywood U.R) Actress Suzan Ball, fighting for ; her life against cancer, remained in "serious condition", last night, physicians at City of Hope sani tarium reported. A report said: "diagnostic pro cedures will be completed by Tuesday and evaluation will fol low in accordance with . (her) admission to City of Hope for consultative purposes."

"I have tried to point out to my son that this is not th typ of boy he should b asso ciating with, but he sticks up for them and claims I try to keep him from having friends. I have noticed a marked change in him sine h started to go with these boys, spec ially in that he is sometimes not too truthful; he comes home with things in his pock ets that I suspect he has taken from some of th children in school, and he is beginning to talk against school and th teachers. I am worried about him." (A) You should be worried about your son, as he is headed for trouble unless something is done and done soon to stop it. The fact that a change has come over your son in so $hort a time shows what is likely to happen in the future if he continues to pal around with these boys. Because your son was not abl to play with other boys when h was younger and was deprived of the friendships every child nor mally craves, he is anxious to keep the friends he now has. This will make him an easy target for any activities when th group he goes with will need a scapegoat. Easily Influenced A . child who has had few friends almost always is very easily influenced, once he ac quires some . friends. He is so afraid that he will lose his new friends that he allows himself to be led around by the nose.. If your son's friends were boys you approved of, there would be little cause for concern. How ever, as they have bad reputa tions, the chances are that they will soon be doing things that go beyond the limits of mischief. Your son will be dragged down if you do not put a stop to bis association with them. . 1 (Copyright HIS. General Feature Corp.)

To visualize the straining process in brewing, think of making coffee in a dripolator. Our "dripolator" at Blitz Weinhard is a 13330-gallon lauter tub of the latest stainless steel design. ("Lauter comes from a German word meaning "to clarify). Com parable to the fresh coffee is the brewer's mash a niixtnf of finest grains and male And the finished "coffee cor responds to the golden clear "wort" that, under the dose watch of Blitz Weinhards brewmaster, flows on to the 15,500-gallon brew kettle for the cooking process. The grain taken from the lauter tub after each "brew is not useless, like spent coffee grounds. Because of its protein content, this grain is transported to nearby dairy farms where it serves as valuable animal food. Thus, what originally came from Oregon farms returns, in part, to other Oregon farms for important use in another bask industry. This careful straining process in the making of fine beer is simply one of many steps necessary to turn outasmoodv mellow, flavorful product.
