Durling . (Distributed by King Faaturaa Syndicate. Inc.) ' o Q P. r o o f! e ry O o o n The Florentines taught the "French how to cook. They also (Instructed them in the use of the knife and fork.. That was in the middle ages. Now the French are the greatest cooks (in the world. Or, so they 'say in (faris. However, some experts consider the Italians the best cooks. Others say the Chinese are tops. Anyway, how about the American cooks? The cooks of this country have never been given much credit for culinary skill. That was why the Eu ropean chefs were surprised wheri the American team com peting at the 1954 International Culinary Exhibition at Berne, Switzerland, won 11 gold medals for their,, skill in cookery. Six teen nations competing in this event. Austria and Germany were tied for first place, the American team finished second. Passing By "Big Ed" Walsh. Great major league twirler of the yesteryear. In one season (1908) Walsh pitched 66 games for the Chi cago White Sox and won 40 of them! Yes, sir, that's what I said, in one season. "Big Ed" was really an "iron man." Babies Were you born in a hospital or at home? Experts on the sub ject seem to agree that babies who grow up to be the health iest and most successful adults are born at home. I'm not going t argue that point. I was born at home. Another thing, when a birth takes place at home the 0 District 6C Issues Call for Bids on Buildings Issued Central Point Plans vand G specifications for new school buildings at Gold Hill and Cen O tral Point were presented to directors of District 6C by Med ford Architect Robert J.

They were Groucho, Harpo, Zeppo and Chico. Gummo was the business manager of the picture . . . Q. What New York restaurant serves the best apple strudel? A. Luchow's . . . Q. What is the inscription on the tombstone of Will Rogers? I say it includes Will's saying: "I never met a man I didn't like." A. You are mistaken. All that is engraved on the great humorist's tomb stone is Claremore, Okla., is the following: "Will Rogers. Born: Oologah, Okla.. Nov. 4. 1879. Died: Point Barrow, Alaska, Aug. 15, 1935." Vegetarian The name of George Bernard Shaw is invariably included In lists of celebrated vegetarians. Shaw was not a 100 per cent vegetarian. He freauentlv con sumed fish. However, the great wit and playwright was a great booster for the vegetarian diet and found it embarrassing when sunering from pernicious anemia to be told the only way he could be cured was by injections of liver.
