Durlinq (Diitributed by King Futures Syndicate, Inc.) To love mnd to remember; that is good. To love and to forcet: that Is not wen, To lapse from love to hatred that is Hell And death and torment, rightly understood. Christina Rosietti Who gives the better service? Waiters or waitresses? The claim has been made that wait resses are superior as to service. To this a California restaurant man of long experience takes strong exception. He favors the waiters. He adds that on a recent visit to New York the best serv ice he received was from a wait er at Lindy's on Broadway and the worst from a waitress in the coffee shop of a world famous hotel. Says Ho "The statement that there were only five royal families of Ireland is erroneous," writes a New Yorker named Carroll. "There were 36 royal families of Ireland, seven kings and 29 princes. Eight of these were O'Carrolls ruling over more ter ritory than any other family in Ireland except the O'Kellys. The two kings of Ireland omitted from the list by those stating there were only five, were both from Tipperary, MacCarthy and O'Callaghan." Passing By Ann Codee. Extremely clever comedienne. Teamed in vaude ville for many years with her husband, Frank Orth. They ap peared in vaudeville theaters all over the world. Were capable of playing their act in five lan guages! Ann and Frank recently celebrated their 45th wedding anniversary. They were married in the Little Church Around the Corner, Manhattan. Incidentally, that church is said to have a higher percentage of successful marriages than any other in this country. Asides San Francisco subscriber signs her name "Elynore."

Over There A statuesque Italian female is a distinct rarity. Average height of women of that coun try is five feet one inch. In .this connection it is interesting to note that platform shoes orig inated in Italy. An Italian worn- an can legally marry at the age ; of 15. A man has to be 18. How . ever, the average Italian man , doesn't marry until he is about ! 28. And the average Italian wom an does not become a bride until 25. Reason for that is that in Italy marriage is usually for keeps. Divorce is practically non-existent in that country. Asking Queries from clients. O. You say Sam Coslow wrote the song titled, "Cocktails for Two." My husband says he met a man named Arthur Johnston who said he wrote that song. How about this. A. Sam Coslow and Arthur Johnston collaborated in writ ing "Cocktails for Two." Both are very clever fellows. Inci dentally, Johnston also wrote "Pennies From Heaven" and 'Just One More Chance." both outstanding Bing Crosby hits.

Puzzling Smile What was the inspiration and meaning of Mona Lisa's enig matic smile in the Leonardo da Vinci painting? That question has been discussed for centuries with no general agreement as to the answer. The most depressing view of the matter is that taken by an Irish art critic who claimed the puzzling Mona Lisa smile was the result of Da Vinci's model having a badly fitting pair of false teeth. s Britain May Delay Atomic Device Test Onslow, West Australia (U.R) Weathermen tracked a coastal storm today to determine wheth er British scientists will have to delay testing the most powerful atomic device they have produc ed. Huddled over charts aboard the flagship of the Royal Navy's atomic task force off the Monte bello islands, they were concern ed about a low pressure area off West Australia. The test is planned for tomor row morning. Official state ments have said it would be "small and unspectacular." But evidence indicated the blast would be far more powerful than the 1952 test at Montebel lo. . The oil fields of North Dakota, only four years old, have already contributed more than 13,000,000 barrels of oil.

(VV,H BEANS) V -wf Slow-Simmered iarReal Home-KLtciien Flavor Criticisms of Eden Multiply; He's No Sir Winston Churchill r By CHARLES M. McCANN United Press Correspondent Prime Minister Anthony Eden is under heavy attack again, and demands for his resignation may SrSSSx-sai be expected to intensity, xnis time it is the "frogman inci dent" which the House of Com mons in London debat ed Monday night. Eden has Charles Mccann been attacked on all sorts of issues, however, since he took Churchill's place on April 6, 1955. Domestic issues, British com monwealth issues, foreign is sues, have succeeded each other. Influential Conservatives have joined the Labor Party opposi tion in blaming Eden for every thing which goes wrong or threatens to go wrong. The chief complaint against him in his own party as well as in the Labor Party, is that his leadership is weak. He lacks Churchill's masterly grip, his critics say. That can hardly be disputed. But where is another Churchill to be found, in Britain or any other country? Eden Takes Blame Take the frogman incident. Eden did not know that frogman Lionel Crabb was going to snoop around the hull of the Russian cruiser Ordzhonikidze in Ports mouth Harbor during the visit of Soviet Premier Nikolai A. Bulganin and Communist leader Nikita S. Khrushchev. In fact, Eden probably had heard only vaguely, if at all, that such a man as frogman Crabb existed. But Eden takes the blame for the snooping, for refusing to tell the full story of it to the House of Commons and especi ally, for telling Russia more than he did Commons when he replied to a Soviet protest. One reason for it all is that Eden inherited from Churchill a plague of troublesome prob lems, in which a drift toward inflation is one of the biggest. Another is that Eden lacks Churchill's warm, dominant per sonality. Undoubtedly, when Churchill was prime minister, more people hated him than hate Eden now. But not so many like Eden very much. Then, there is the British po litical system itself. When any thing goes wrong in Washing ton, say, Secretary of State John Foster Dulles, Secretary of De fense Charles K Wilson or Sec retary of Agriculture Ezra Taft Benson may take the blame, or be given it. More Lumps Coming In Britain, the prime minister takes the rap. Eden is taking it now over the frogman incident. That was an Admiralty or Secret Service matter. He will take it more and more in coming weeks over the Cyprus crisis, or over the budget in which Chancellor of Exchequer Harold Macmillan provided for a government bond lottery to encourage savings. Construction Watcher Killed as Rail Breaks Chicago U.R) A "sidewalk superintendent" plunged 150 feet to his death yesterday when the rail on which he was lean ing collapsed. Hubert L. Hinton, 45, was watching construction of a new filtration plant when the rail gave way and he fell into an excavation. Thornton Cites Pelton Action Salem (U.R Attorney Gen eral Robert Y. Thornton said to day that criminal proceedings by the Jefferson couuty district at torney would be the appropriate action if allegations that Port land General Electric Company was building Pelton dam should prove true. Thornton's opinion came in answer to Gov. Elmo Smith's question as to what legal action could be taken. The attorney general said that PGE would be in violation of Oregon water law in construct ing the Deschutes river dam without a state license. "In view of the fact that the legislative assembly expressly made certain acts of persons in the appropriation of water a crime, I directed the district at torney of Jefferson county to make an investigation on certain alleged facts that if such facts be found true to institute the neces s a r y criminal proceedings," Thornton told the governor. London (U.R) Britain today appointed Sir John MacPherson to the post of permanent coloni al under - secretary, succeeding Sir Thomas Lloyd who is retir ing from public service. Tuesday, May 15, 1958 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE FIVE Eden is the chief of govern ment, not like President Eisen hower the chief of state. Queen Elizabeth is chief of state. And under the British system she can do no wrong. That is not because Britons regard their sovereign as sacrosanct. It is because the sovereign is kept above and strictly out of politics. He or she acts by advice of the prime minister. So Eden, partly because he is not another Churchill, is tak ing his lumps. But he is actually a man of strong character, and a fighter. He also has a majority of 59 over the combined opposition in the 630-seat House of Com- expected to continue, and he mons. v - may be expected to continue as The attacks on Eden may be prime minister.
