On The Side
By E. V. Durling
(Distributed by King Future Syndicate. Inc.)
There are two births; the one
when light
First strikes the new awakened
sense;
The other, when two souls unite.
And we must count our life from
thence.
When you loved me, and I loved
you.
Then both of us were born anew.
CART WRIGHT.
The weather in our section
has been chilly, changeable,
windy and damp but as yet I
have not had a cold. However, I
am ready to battle such an ail
ment. I have just come upon an
old Scotch Highland remedy,
for a cold. The recipe is as fol
lows: "Put a tablespoonful of
orange marmalade into a tum
bler one third full of hot water
topped up with whisky." A very
interesting cold cure, don't you
think? I can hardly wait until I
get a cold so I can try it.
Asides
Marilyn Monroe recently ob
served: "There is nothing phony
about my walk. It's sort of ana'
tomical. Just the way I'm made.
I've got sort of swivel hips" . . .
How many of your male friends
kissed your bride after the cere
mony? In Cincinnati, a bride
was kissed by 98 men, one after
another at the wedding recep
tion. That is a world's record.
Asking
Queries from clients. Q. Isn't
it a fact that Great Britain is
is the only country in Europe
where automobile traffic keeps
to the left? A. No, sir. In Swe
den traffic also keeps to the left.
In all other European countries
traffic keeps to the right as in
the United States. . . . Q. How
tall is Lena Home? A. five feet
ten inches. Lena's other meas
urements are 35Vi-23-36. . . .' Q.
Wasn't the song, "My Man" in
troduced and popularized by
Fanny Brice?A. Song referred
to, of French origin, was intro
duced by Mile. Mistinguette at
the Follies Bergere, Paris' with
the title, "Mon Homme." The
English' version "My Man" was
sung by Fanny Brice. in the
Ziegfeld Follies of 1920.
Among the Married
What are your wife's theories
as to. handling . a husband? Is
she possessive? Or jealous? How
many, nights out of a week are
you permitted- to have? Mrs
Humphrey Bogart (Lauren Ba-
call) offers the following advice
to wives: "Let your husband
run wild." Mrs. Bogart's theory
is that allowed to run wild a
husband will soon tire of it and
come home for a rest. This, how
ever, is not 'the way Fay Tem
pleton looked at it. Said Fay:
"Give a man enough rope and
he'll skip."
Passing By
Dr. Maxwell Maltz. Distin
guished plastic surgeon. One of
the world's most successful prac
titioners in his field. He has
written a number of highly informative-
books on plastic sur
gery. Among these are the best
sellers titled, "New Faces-New
Futures," and "Dr.. Pygmalion."
Another of Dr. Maltz's books
which seems destined to be a
best seller .is the recently pub
lished work titled "Adventures
in Staying Young."
Please Note
Carmen Laforet, the highly
successful novelist, is the moth
er of four young children. Dis
counting the difficulties of con
ducting a career and rearing
four youngsters at the same time
Carmen said: "Four children
are easier than one by the
fourth you've had plenty of
practice."

introduced that dance known as
the "shimmy" to Broadway.
However, Gilda, whose real
maiden name was Maryanna
Michalski, did the "shimmy" so
cleverly and provocatively and
so brilliantly exploited that she
achieved fame and fortune from
the dance. The "shimmy" was,
in court action, legally defined
as follows: "A rhythmical shak
ing and shivering of parts of the
body, synchronizeH and per
formed to a personalized, synco
pated musical rhythm and ac
companied by appropriate
songs."
Over There
What is the most common sur
name in Scotland? Is it MacPart
land, MacTavish or Campbell?
It is none of these. The most
common surname in Scotland is
Smith with MacDonald second
and Brown third. Following the
order named are Wilson, Thom
son, Robertson and Campbell.
There are more Kellys than
MacGregors in Scotland. The
most popular first name for
Scotch lassies in Sheila.
Charme
Diane Cilento.. Highly talent
ed blonde charmer from Britain.
Now playing Helen of Troy in
the slightly classical play titled
"Tiger at the- Gates." Diane is
very versatile. A clever actress
she also-is a sultry voiced chan-
teuse. One of her best records is
that of the sons called "A Fool
in His Heart."
Bock Stairs: The President's Message
By MERRIMAN SMITH
United Press White House
Reporter
' Gettysburg, Pa. (UP.) Back
stairs at the Gettysburg White
House:
The White House staff was
visibly irritated by a published
report that President Eisenhow
er might deliver his state of the
union message to Congress by
radio.
Such a maneuver would de
note inability to appear in per
son. And more to the point, it
would be next to impossible to
hold a radio audience for 45 min
utes or an hour in the middle
of the day and with' the Presi
dent not in view. .
Unless there is a radical
change in plans, Mr. Eisenhower
will send a lengthy, written mes
sage to the House and Senate to
be relayed to the members by
reading clerks..
There is ample precedent for
this system. Until relatively mod
e'rn times, most presidents used
it. '

Every night recently the farm
has had a number of uninvited
and unwanted guests Maraud
ing red foxes and raccoons.
The foxes and raccoons slip in
from bordering woods under
cover of darkness and try to
nab the quail and pheasant that
nestle in the hedgerows around
the farm.
This is inhibiting for the Pres
ident. He could go out with his
shotgun and have at the foxes
and raccoons except for one fact.
They hole up during the day
time in the nearby woods, and
the woods are part of a national
park where shooting is forbidden.
Fletcher Knebel in the cur
rent Look magazine tells an in
teresting story about the Presi
dent's illness. Knebel says the
first medication the President
received after his heart attack
in Denver was a batch of milk
of magnesia administered by
Mrs. Eisenhower. She thought
the President was suffering from
indigestion.
The story last week that Mr.
Eisenhower called Gov. Averell
Harriman of New York a "Park
Avenue Truman" doesn't sound
typical of the President. He's not
a quipster.
Best guess locally is that some
one in the cabinet or among the
Republican congressional leader
ship threw this quote at Mr. Ei
senhower, and that he laughed
and agreed.

Kids have the goldarnest amount of energy. They play hard.. -learn
fast . . . sleep soundly . . . grow like weeds.
How do they do it? They've got the advantage of being more
recent models, of course newer body styles and all that. But a large
part of the answer lies in the fuel they run around on.
Milk's their petrol, and it's pretty hard to beat. Loaded with VCP
(vitamins, calcium, protein), milk gives them mileage like you
haven't gotten since you were a kid.
Funny thing about this fuel
works fine in older models, too.
Tried it recently?
