And this will be the result of a new law the government is im posing on "shadow." This means, the state says, that the pleasant outdoors belongs to them, and cafes and restaur ants must pay to use and usurp the stretches in front of their establishments, beach umbrellas and awnings to cover the outdoor tables. So the coffee drinkers will pay the new tax probably. The tax jump is from 60 cents a square yard to $25 for the same space. Even with the fat tourist season coming up, the famous Via Veneto cafes are resenting it, and have called a one day strike this coming Thursday. As we sat drinking coffee, and contemplating the new law, we counted the tables (the pretty little tables with their gay covers and the flags of all nations, flying in the breezes.) We counted 150. at Doney's alone. Then we be gan to estimate how much of their profits it would take to pay this S25 a square yard for the season. The mathematics became complicated but it. surely would take a day's profit. For tourists to sit and nibble, drink and sip, is not inexpensive. There are no menus and we see many a perplexed look as the account is scanned after a dainty sand wich, or torte is eaten. Tobacco Advertising Another new law concern ing Romans is about tobacco advertising. Ostensibly the new law, which has just gone into effect, is made in the interest of public health. It forbids publication anywhere of advertisements for tobacco products, in newspapers, cin emas, magazines, bill boards or television. It should be proof positive as to the ef ficacy and power of advertis ing, and it will be interesting to know whether the little to bacco shops remain as busy as they are at present. The slate sacrifices tax money in this interest of public health. American cigarets cost 72 cents a pack in Italy. The motion picture industry has protested taxes on outdoor advertising. Vacationing Mr. and Mrs. D. W. Brainerd and children, Lynn and Jan, arrived Friday from Peta luma, Calif., tn visit through Memorial day with Mrs. Brainerd's mother, Mrs. E. A. Littrell, 140 Greenway circle. The group is vacationing at Mrs. Littrell's vacation cabin at Howard prairie.

Til l ... i aoie settings Show Influence i By Mrs. Kennedy ! Providence, R 1. IIII'M - The influence of Mrs. John F. Ken nedy on today's table settings is reflected in the increasing popularity of vermeil. Raymond J. Artahasy, vice president of a silver firm, said that as a result of demand for vermeil 17 of his firm's pal terns are being done in ver meil. Vermeil was developed cen turies ago as a substitute for ! solid gold. This came about i principally in France where kings confiscaled their sub ject's gold In replenish their exhausted treasuries. The gold look became more and more desirable and ver meil - produced at a fraction of the cost without sacrificing the gold look- became increas ingly in demand. Arlabasy said Mrs Ken nedy's use of vermeil for en tertaining in the White House has created a new demand for the gilded services. Sophomores Entertained Dr and Mrs. Fred T. Burich and Mr. and Mrs. Richard Rementcria entertained Fri day evening at the Rogue Val ley Country club for members of the sophomore class at St. Mary's High school.
