SIXTEEN MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE

On The Side
By E. V. DURLING
(Distributed by King Features
Syndicate, Inc.)
In the matter of low prices
for used cars, a Milwaukee deal
er seems to have broken all rec
ords. He recently staged a sale
in which he offered a number of
used ears for a price of $9-85.
Some of these cars were only
eight years old. All were guar
anteed by the seller to be in good
running order. .
The Bowery
A song that caused the prop
erty in a section to depreciate
by millions of dollars. That is
what the song titled "The
Bowery I'll Never Go There Any
More,'' is said to have done to
the Bowery section of Manhat
tan. The song was first presented
in Hoyt's celebrated play "A trip
to Chinatown." Harry Connor in
troduced it. The ditty achieved
tremendous popularity. How
ever, it caused a drop in rental
real estate values on the Bowery
from which it has never recov
ered. Mules and Men
A number of feminine sub
scribers express themselves as
far from pleased of the appear
ance of their husbands in bath
ing suits the past summer. "Ev
ery time any man appeared on
the beach I was downright em
barrassed," says one young ma
tron. This feeling was evidently
shared s by many other wives.
Now these ladies would like to
have some helpful hints on
husband streamlining. Our ex
perts have been checking this
situation. There will be further
reports on it.
Passing By
Mabel " Wayne, song writer
from Brooklyn, composer of "Ra
mona," "In a Little Spanish
Town," "It Happened in Monte
rey" and "Little Man You've
Had a Busy Day."
So They Say
Women born under Libra
(Sept. 23-Oct. 22) are never real
ly happy unless living luxuri
ously. Their enthusiasm for ele
gant articles of attire and adorn
ment is great. The well known
slogan, "Because She Loves Nice
Things," was probably inspired
by a Libra. It was also probably
a Libra who observed, "He is a
millionaire. I like that in a man."
Or, so say the stargazers. ..
Asking
Queries from clients. Q. When
mixing a Martini cocktail which
goes in first, the gin or the ver
mouth? Should it be stirred or
shaken? A. Gin goes in first.
There is a disagreement among
the experts as to whether the
Martini should be subjected to
shaking or stirring. However,
some experts, such as Marco of
ihe Colony restaurant, Manhat
tan, say shaking is correct.
Social Error
"On several recent occasions,"
writes a New Yorker, "I have
been shocked at seeing men
wearing white carnations in the
lapel of dinner jackets. The
white carnation should be worn
with tails. For the dinner jacket
(black tie) the red carnation is
proper."
Please Note
Do you know a young fellow
who is undecided on what trade
he wishes to follow? Has he
checked on the trade of sheet
metal journeymen? I hear the
opportunities in that line are
very good. Wages are $3.12 an
hour. I know of one sheet metal
journeyman in California who
earns S124.80 a week every
week. He hasn't been out of job
in 10 years. It takes four years
apprentice training and school
ing to become a sheet metal
journeyman.
