Tuesday on the city's water re
sources as of June 1, 1956, as
compared to June 1, 1955, dur

convention delegate he is bound
by the decision of the Oregon
delegation which is declared 'for

Those who should know say
that all-male conventions make
the most noise in a hotel but all
female conventions do the most
damage. The women break
more things and burn more
holes in the room equipment
than men. In addition to that,
they are always complaining
about the service and harassing
the help with unreasonable de

LEGAL NOTICES
Hangtown Fry
A Chicagoan, who prides her
self on her knowledge of the
culinary art says she was
"frightfully embarrassed" when
asked what hangtown fry is and
was unable to answer. The hang
town fry, which originated in
Hangtown (now Placerville),
Calif., is a combination of oys
ters, bacon, eggs, hot peppers,
chili sauce and milk dumped in
to a skillet and fried.
Among in Married
How does your wife rate you
as a husband? Or do you really
know? The six complaints most
registered against husbands are:
1. He is selfish and inconsider
ate. 2. He's not affectionate.
Does not understand the facts of
love. 3. He's a liar. 4. He's too
critical. 5. He won't talk things
over. 6. He is rarely complimen
tary. Never offers praise as to
wife's appearance, housekeeping
or cooking.
Sidelights

staying power? At intervals, 12
times daily, take a deep breath
and hold it for one minute. That

his father. The opposite is true
in unhappy marriage.
