Otherwise you will be like a bride "groom without the wedding ring." Goshen, Ind.

Hagerty on the announcement that President Eisenhower was expected lo resume news conferences with the capital press corps next month: "We have no intention of going back to written questions." On The Side By E. V. Durling (Distributed by King Faura Syndicate. Inc.) One of the greateslquartets I have ever heard is that from Am- arillo. Tex., winners of this year's barber shop quartet sing ing championship. I am a quar tet fan from far back. I remem- berO'The Empire City Four. Also, the group billed as "That Quartet" aniS vit four stout fel lows whos sloa vat "A Thou sand Pounds cS Jfirmony." My favorite quartet Hymber is that song title "Deari." I never cared much for either "Set Adeline" or "Down by the Old Mill Stream" as quartet numbers. Both seemed to inspire quartets to excessive and corny heights of harmony. They HA not bring about that easy tmd jreceful de livery which i iAt jfrett charm of quartet sinjiEf. Please Not The belief tfctt country boys are generally i better physi cal shape thin eity boyi is a fallacy. The0rcord of World War II reveal that in the United States the percentage of country boys rejected for military service because of not measuring up to physical standards was much higher than that of city boys. Bridegrooms Did yoixhave "wedding cer emony jitters"? Many British bridegrooms are reported to be taking so-called "confidence sills" to calm their nerves dur ing the cheremony.

O His wife is a redhead. So his ma trimonial difficulties are not sur prising. This tragic happening in spires me to urge all. our subs cribers with flaming tressed wives to give careful considera tion to the helpful hints on handling red-haired women fre quently offered by our Horses and Women experts. Heart Condition At 41, E. R. Bradley, then a re tail store salesman in Chicago, was informed by his physician that he had a serious heart condi tion and would have to slow down considerably if he wished to live much longer. Bradley switched from the retail store field to thoroughbred racing and operating gambling casinos. The change does not appear as if it would benefit a serious heart condition. However, Col. E. R. fEradley lived to be 87 years old and left an estate of $7,000,000. Incidentally those millions were made after Bradley was 41 and afflicted with the aforemen tioned heart condition.

Our Horese and Women experts have been instructed to thor oughly check this interesting claim.
