6 A MEDFOSD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORB, Out on a Limb By BOB WALTERS Hanby School Holds Awards Ceremonies La Cafe de Talent About 25 minutes ago, put a piece of paper in my typewriter. I've had a cup and a half of coffee and two cigarettes and have attempted to keep the beat during two Kingston Trio records. The only words on the paper (which I believe is turning yellow) are the ones in this paragraph. Problem: How can I tie in French lessons and the Tal ent Cafe? Solution: I shouldn't, but I'll try anyway, When all else fails, perhaps It s best to begin at the begin ring. For a long time, I've wanted to (1) learn French and (2) go to France, prefer ably, but not necessarily, in that order. So I found French teacher who had spent a year in France, So far, Teacher says I'm doing pretty well. The teach er, incidentally, Is a blonde a fact which might account at least in part, for my stu- dious nature. A couple of weeks ago, Teacher and I were head' ing for a well-known res taurant near Gold Hill after having spent most of the day lipping around the val ley in Bebe. "Any place else you'd rather go? says I. "No," says Teacher, "but some day we'll have to eat ai the Talent Cafe." "The what?" "The Talent Cafe," says Teacher. "It's a cafe in Tal ent. Naturally." At that point, I confes sed to being lest than ex cited about dining at a cafe in Talent. I have since learned, however, that the cafe is almost a local in stitution and that I was in a minority, probably be cause I haven't been here too long. Last Sunday was the big day. We arrived at the cafe, walked in, picked a table and sat down, which seemed a reasonable course of action. A waitress came over, gave us each a glass of water, some silverware and a plate of bread and butter. She didn't say a word ing at me as if I had asked a ridiculous question. "They only have fried chicken on Sunday. When a customer comes In on Sunday they Know he wants fried chicken or he wouldn't be here." "Oh." Next our silent waitress brought salads. While we downed the greenery. Teacher mentioned that the cafe closes down one day each summer to host the Shakespearean Festival company, a bit oi miscel laneous 1 n i ormation we duly noted. About that time our wait ress returned with two plates heaped with fried chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy and some veg tables. We both dug in or to be specific, I dug in. Teacher used knife and fork. But to each his own, I suppose. Chacun a son gout. (How's that?) "Teacher," says I, munch ing a drumstick for which 1 h:ti just traded her a back "I think It would be possible to come in here, eat to your heart's content, pay your check and leave without hav ing said one word." wen, not quite," says Teacher. "You have to say something when the waitress asks you about dessert. She'll be here in a minute and she'll sny, 'Apple, berry, cherry, lemon or rhubarb?1 She'll mean pie, but she won't sny pie. . Enter the waitress. "Apple, berry, cherry, lemon or rhubarb?" she says. "Berry," says Teacher. "Apple," says I. "Ice cream?" asks the waitress. "No," says I. "Apple." "Yes," says the waitress, "I know. But do you want Ice cream on it?" "No thank you," says I, a little embarrassed at my faux pas. Teacher chuckles, knew. Ing I am somewhat con fused. Pie and coffee consumed, we paid our check which seemed much too small, but we hope they keep them that way and returned to Bcbe. "Well," says Teacher as we climbed in the car, "how did you like it?" "Fine," says I. "In fact, Teacher, It was just tres bon." By MARY KELL Mail Tribune Correspondent Gold Hill-Charles A. Mey er, superintendent of District 6, and C.
