On The Side e.y e. v. Duriing
(Distributed by King F" Sedicte. Inc.)
Think not, the husband gained '
That all is done;
The prize ot married happiness
Must still be won,
' And, oft. the careless
Find it to their cost
The lover in the husband
may be lost.
Lyttleton.
The Bible tells us that
Joseph, before he called on
Pharaoh, changed his raiment
and shaved. But what did Joseph
shave with? How many times
over did he have to shave? Then
consider the .case of Marc An-
.tony. According to history Marc
shaved 10 times over before he
called on Cleopatra. This indi
cates that Cleo was a girl really
ODDOsed to that five o'clock
shadow. What did Antony shave
with? Can some recognized au
thority on the history of shav
ing give us the answers to these
queries?
Exciting Spinster
Eartha Kitt, 27 - year - old
throaty voiced chanteuse, is be
ing referred to as "trie most ex
citing spinster in the world."
Her earnings average $4,000 per
week less tax. Eartha recently
observed, "There -is a beast, in
side every man. When I sing I
just bring it out in a lot of
them This brings to mind that
ditty titled "There's a Little Bit
of Bad in Every Good Little
Girl." I wonder what male vocal
ist, if any, has a tendency, when
singing to bring out the little
bit of bad in the good little girls.
I would like this information for
our Horses and Women files.
Briefly
The life of a married career
woman down in dear old Georgia
can be very ' difficult at times
In that .State a wife's salary
legally belong to her husband . .
When "first lady," Mrs. Franklin
D. Roosevelt made many
speeches, some were quite
lengthy. However,, the longest
speech her successor, Mrs. Harry
Truman, made during her period
as "first lady" was "Thank you
for the orchids."
Asking - v
Queries from clients: Q. What
kind of gambling game is the
one known as "Stuss"? A. It is a
variant of Faro Bank. Practical
ly the same as Faro but slightly
revised to make it easier to play.
The house percentage is a little
better for Stuss than for Faro.
For further details, consult that
highly interesting book titled
"Scarne on Cards" by John
Scarne . . . Q. A contestant on a
television quiz program said the
model for Leonardo Da Vinci's
painting "Mona Lisa" was the
wife of a resident of Florence,
Italy. The quizmaster said the
answer was wrong, that several
models had posed for the paint
ing. How about this? A. The
model for the Mona Lisa was the
wife of Francesco Del Gioconda
of Florence. The smile of Mona
Lisa is the most discussed fea
ture of this painting. However,
it has also been said the hands
are the most beautiful ever
painted. Young women aspiring
to be "hanxl models" should take
a long look at the hands of Mona
Lisa.
So They Say s
r Men born under Virgo (Aug.
24-Sept. 23) do not view marriage
romantically. They have to be
sold on the idea they will benefit
by. it. They must be thoroughly
convinced that two can live more
cheaply than one. Virgo men are
usually most interested in a girl
who has a good position and is
willing to keep it after marry
ing. Or, so say the stargazers.
Love
How does your dictionary de
fine love? In checking over this,
the following definition from
Funk and Wagnall's New Collage
Standard Dictionary appealed to
me as being unusually well put:
Love a strong complex emotion
or feeling causing one to appre
ciate, delight in and crave , the
presence or possession - of an
other and to please and promote
the welfare of the other."
Passing By
Jim Parley. Distinguished New
Yorker. A brilliant politician, an
accomplished physiognomist and
a very wise man of business. Jim
is also a charter member of the
association of former right hand
ed first basemen. In his youth,
Jim cleverly covered the initial
sack for the Haversraw, N. Y.,
semi-professional team. In those
days he was known as "Stretch"
Farley.
Mystery
How Sophia : "The Sizzler"
Loren, Italian Cinema Queen,
retains her slender and well pro
portioned figure is a mystery to
' those who have seen .her in ac
tion at . luncheon or dinner.
Sophia is definitely not on a
diet. Recently in the dining car
of a Rome to Venice train Sophia
was seen consuming a luncheon
consisting of spaghetti, beef
steak, fried potatoes, ice cream,
chocolate cake and mixed fruits.
Grange
ISU Supervisors Vote '
Against Racial Bans
Baton Rouge, La."' (U.R)
Louisiana State university's
. board of supervisors voted over
whelmingly against barring its
athletic teams from participating
against Negro players or tighten
ing entrance requirements aimed
at Negro students.
. . The action came Saturday aft
er a seven-hour meeting behind
closed doors during which two
factions argued whether LSU
should play teams which have
Negro athletes, or tighten en
trance requirements to halt an
expected flood of Negro enroll
ments at the undergraduate
level. :
Upper Applegaie Grange
Maj. Gen. Joseph Hicks of the
Jackson county civil defense
agency, spoke to the Upper Ap
plegate Grange at the last meet
ing, Feb. 10, at the Ruch school.
Two films were shown con
cerning defense work in experi
ments to determine the degree
of destruction and effects of
atomic explosions.. The films
also showed organized evacua
tion methods for metropolitan
areas and how citizens in de
fense groups of fringe areas aid
in filtering , airplane alert . mes
sages. '
General Hicks explained the
importance of organized defense
groups in supplying manpower
to aid during any disaster and
gave examples of help given by
the federal defense administra
tion to areas afflicted by recent
floods.
Radio stations KMED and
KYJC are members of a nation
al network known as Conelrad,
which will give out . official in
formation and instruction to aid
citizens during emergencies.
Following the program, , the
meeting was called to order by
Master George Redhead, with
State Deputy Henry Henrickson
and County Deputy Hoscoe Rob
erts as visitors.
Acting upon advice from state
and county Grange officials, a
motion will -be voted upon at
the next meeting, Feb. 24, to re
scind the motion to ' build the
new hall on the McKee bridge
property, and consider every
available site more accessible to
the entire Applegate area.
' Due to the fact that the hall
building plans previously offer
ed to the membership for appro
val were considered too expen
sive and impractical by the ar
chitect, other, plans were dis
cussed and examined by those
present.
A new committee has been
formed in the Grange. It is a
Friendship Committee" to call
upon new residents in the com
munity and upon those who are
ill and not affiliated with the
Grange, to extend good wishes
and inspire a. feeling of good
will. It is net the purpose of
this committee to solicit mem
bership. The following were ap
pointed to carry out this pur
pose: Grace Pearson, Pearl
Byrne, Mickey Buck and Grace
Buck.
Mrs. Pearl Byrne has been ap
pointed to the agriculture com
mittee to report on general gard
ening. This will include flowers
as well as vegetables.
Refreshments were served by
Mr. and Mrs. Wilfred Pearson
and Mr. and Mrs. Harry Davis. '

Persecution Said
Being Practiced
New York (U.R) Harvey
S. Firestone Jr. warned Ameri
cans today that "persecution is
still being practiced in this coun
try. Firestone, chairman of the
Firestone Tire and Rubber Co.,
told some 850 community lead
ers at the annual Brotherhood
Week luncheon that this coun
try has gained its great status
through the bonds of brother
hood. "And yet," he said, "there are
some people with prejudices so
.deeply rooted in their minds
and hearts that they deny the
reality of these facts. By word
and by deed they practice per
secution here in the land which
owes its very existence to those
who tied from persecution."
Cases Said Magnified
. Firestone, who is Brotherhood
Week chairman of the National
Conference of Christians and
Jews, said another danger also
exists "from Communists and
fellow travellers who magnify
cases o:: prejudice in the United
States out of true proportion."
These , people, he said, feed
the sparks of resentment into
the flames of vengeance, provid
ing grist for the propaganda
mills of our enemies.
Firestone said that America
stands before the world today as
a living example of the power
of free men. Americans mvst
practice that freedom.
