U.R) Ed ward Eastwood dislikes roses, and the sight of them rambling near the town railroad station annoyed. So, on his way to work each day, Eastwood would sprin kle a packet of seeds among the roses. Now, townspeople can't see the roses for dahlias, petunias, snapdragons, poppies and a va riety of other flowers, t FILM WEDNESDAY The movie "Seconds to Mid night" will be shown Wednes day, Oct. 31, at 8 p.m. at the Berean BaDtist church. White 1 City. On The Side Ry E. V. Durling (Distributed by King Future Syndicate, IncJ ' Amsterdam The French are said to have at least one book on every conceivable subject. The British have special clubs for a wide variety of activities. The Dutch have a museum for every thing. There are over 400 mu seums in Holland. In addition to the art museums there are spe c i a 1 museums for railways, press, musical instruments and fashions. There is even a tax museum. This covers the world history of taxes. No matter what your business or hobby is, there is probably a museum in Hol land devoted to it. Check A Milwaukee checkerupper would meet his match in the Amsterdam checkerupper. Here nothing is taken for granted. One local resident spent his life trying to prove the exact date on which Amsterdam was found ed. Spent all his spare time in li braries and other mediums of reference. Had a suitcase packed with documents. However, every time he thought he had finally found the right date some checkerupper proved he was wrong. He never did get it right. Conscription Who invented conscription? Does your son know? It was Napoleon. ' He drafted Dutch young men for his campaign in Russia. The building where these unfortunate fellows had to reg ister is still standing in Amster dam. Shoes The old custom of leaving shoes outside the hotel room door to be shined still prevails in Holland. Frequently seen out side a room are a pair of very large men's shoes and a cute, little pair of women's shoes. I heard a young American woman observe on viewing such a com bination say: "How positively romantic!" Bedmaking Is bedmaking a lost art? Has the home manager or hotel maid who can make a bed properly become a rarity? That has been my opinion. However, on a more detailed investigation of this vitally important subject I found the faul lies not in the bedmak ing. The reason so many beds are uncomfortable is because the sheets and blankets don't fit the bed. They are too small. If my feet protrude through the blan kets I can't sleep. If I can't tuck the blanket in on the side so it will stay there I regret to say I am inclined to the use of profan ity. At home I have double size blankets. Potatoes On this trip in Europe I have been able to get practically any thing I have asked for. This in cludes ice in my highball. There has been one exception. That is a baked potato with a steak. There are 252 ways of preparing potatoes and you can get any one of them in a first class Euro pean hotel or restaurant except a baked potato. The chamber of commerce of the state of Idaho, U.S.A., should investigate this situation. Also, some fellow with an inventive mind might invent a badget for a quick and easy way to bake a potato and find a large European market for it. Peace Palsc If you are in need of a mem ory refresher as to the origin of the Peace palace in The Hague please be informed that in 1898 Tsar Nicholas II of Russia decid ed to call a conference of all civilized nations to bring about world peace. The Hague was chosen as the meeting place. The first peace conference at The Hague was held in 1899. In 1900 Andrew Carnegie contributed $1,500,000 to a building fund for a meeting place at The Hague to be exclusively used for the dis cussion of world peace. In 1913 the Peace palace was completed And about six months later World War I started. Sidelights Hollanders have a genius for home delivery.' If you have a business in which home delivery figures you should visit the Netherlands. You might get some new ideas ... as you know, the world's most skilled dia mond cutters are found in Am sterdam. But did you know that in the United States experienced diamond cutters are paid $250 a week? Dogs The fondness of the Dutch for dogs is very evident in Amster dam. The pups are privileged characters here. They can dine at restaurants and ride on street cars and buses. Every river boat seems to have a dog. Many dogs ride on their owner's bicycles. 1 saw one today in a special com partment on the front of a mo torcycle. He had on a coat and a hat. A very quaint sight.
