MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON
THURSDAY. JULY 12. 1962
swinging
fly
being lazy!
It takes an
Iron will.
You've got to
ignore grass
that needs to
be clipped,
s q u e a k I ng
doors crying
Pitrlclt "".
Mccormick rooms that
ought to be painted and
even the neighbors.
The best rest also involves
turning a deaf ear to the
phone, the neighbor's young
sters, and all else that threat
ens to interfere with your
labors on behalf of laziness.
If you can't tune out such
sounds that tempt you to
change from the horizontal to
vertical position, bolster your
will power with ear plugs.
You'll want to shut out
more than exciting sounds.
For example, you've got to do
something about mail that
might make you nervous.
I The most workable ap
. p r o a c h: Let the bills er,
mail collect in the mail box.
'If you have a good-sized box,
the mail man won't have very
much trouble making it hold
' several batches of bills.
Sleeping until noon also
' helps when you're working at
. being lazy. That relieves the
female of the house of the
' breakfast-making chore. It
J also relieves the male of
breakfast dishwashing.
Along the line, it's a tre
'mendous boost toward lazi
'. ness to call the local ready
- meal catering service and
1 have lunch sent in.
You gain more time dcdi
1 catcd to laziness by vowing
also to go to a restaurant for
' dinner every lazy day.
' If you find driving the
' family car to the eatery horns
. in on progress connected with
"project lazy", don't hesitate.
Just call a cab.
Lots of folks like to read
when lazy-day dreaming be-
comes exhausting.
" But holding a book and
turning the pages easily ener
vates one working on lazi
ness. Anticipate and solve
that problem before embark
ing on the lazy days; collect
i some talking books records
from the library.
Get the long-play talking
books so you won't have to
spend too much energy
changing records.
Plans for the lazy days
also ought to Include the pur
chase of a hammock and
hanging il in a shady place.
Let the hammock swing
: ever so slightly. Do it too
rapidly and you might over
exert yourself a crime pun
ishable by work on lazy days!
Of course, insects will buzz
and try to bile you. On a lazy
day, don't do anything ridi
culous like
swatter
Just squirt some bug-bomb I
at the creatures when an
noyed. If pushing the trigger
on an aerosol can seems like
too much work, equip your
hammock with some jungle
netting.
This being lazy for a spell
isn't bad. In fact, a recent re
port from the national insti
tutes of mental health urges
it to relieve tension.

Caracas , Venezuela il'PH -
There is no need for the tour
ist from the United States to
know Spanish when he dines
out in Venezuela, even if tin.
waiter does not speak Eng
lish. The menu is more likely to
be in French than any other
language.
Although Venezuela boasts
dishes as typically native as
the hamburger and hot dog in
the United States, it is diffi
cult to find them and resi
dents appear to balk at either
serving them or leading a
tourist to thum.
Caracas abounds in good
restaurants - French, Italian,
German, S w I ss , Hungarian,
North American, Argentine
and, of course, Chinese. But
French dishes seem to pre
vail. Typical
"Do you really want to eat
'typical' food?" an American
of long residence in Vene
zuela asks this visitor.
"Well." is the response, "I
would like to taste some real
Venezuelan dishes as long as
I'm here, but wha'ever you
decide will be all right."
So they eat in a French res
taurant that is very good and
very expensive and feel as
though they had never left
home.
A wealthy member of an
old Venezuelan family raises
the tourist's hopes by suggest
ing a place to dine.
Where do they eat? Anoth
er French rcstaurant-this one
very very good and very very
expensive. 1 n e Venezuelan
gourmet mixes the salad
dressing himself. It is strictly
French.
A North American couple
who have lived in Venezuela
many years invite the tourist
couple to dinner at their col
orful hacienda.
"Ah. at last," they say, "a
Venezuelan meal."
Oh, yes?
Italian
The fare is Italian. Dclic
ious but Italian.
Couple Visits
National Parks
Mr. and Mrs. A. C. Sever
son, 604 Plum street, travel
ed through Utah recently.
While in the state they visited
with Mr. and Mrs. A. C. Em-
de.i. Fillmore, Utah. Mrs.
Emdcn is a daughter of the
Seversons.
The family made stops at
Zion National park and the
Grand Canyon and Brycc
Canyon national parks.
In Ashland
Ashland - Mrs. Nellie Ship
man and Miss Irene Wilcox of
Eagle Grove, Iowa, were re
cent guests of Mr. and Mrs.
Shelby M- Wilcox, 48 Gres
ham street.
The tourists decide to find
some typical Venezuelan food
for themselves. The restau
rant is there, all right, but it
is closed. So they try a side
walk cafe. The chicken sand
wiches ate delicious. "El sand
wich" is a big hit in these
parts, particularly "el perro
caliente" (hot dogl, with or
without mustard.
At the government hotel In
Maracay, one of the most lux
urious hotels on any contin
ent," the menu seems to be
Venezuelan in places. It in
cludes the one dish travel
books advise tourists to try
hallacas. At every meal, the
tourist orders hallacas, only
to be told that they are not
available.
The travel books say they
bear some relation to tamales,
but this tourist would not
know.
The closest we came to Ven
ezuelan fare was a meal con
sisting of minute steak that
nad been marinated in a spicy
sauce and fried. It was called
parrilla and was served with
plantain, a relative of the
banana; yucca, black beans
and rice.
Tortilla
As in Spain, the tortilla is
an omelet, not a flat cake as
cooked in Mexico. When not
fried in too much grease it
can be very palatable.
Venezuelans, like Ameri
cans, favor charcoal broiled
meats. They are great meat
eaters and those who can af
ford it dine on steak as often
as they can.
Tea, with or without lem
on, iced or hot, is popular
here, but the national drink
(other than imported colas) is
strong coffee with a slightly
burned taste, which many per
sons drink with liberal dol
lops of hot milk or boiling hot
water but most appear to like
thick and black.
Scotch and soda, gin and
tonic, rum drinks and Bloody
Mary's are the usual choices
in Venezuela. The wines are
mainly French and expensive.
When it comes to dessert,
the Venezuelans share an
American favorite-extra rich
ice cream in many delicious
flavors and an especially tas
ty strawberry sherbet. French
desserts, particularly crepes
suzettes, are popular, too.
Other than fruit, it was
impossible to determine what
the "typical" Venezuelan des
sert might be.

Read Labels,
Says Expert
Corvallis A minute's time
spent reading food labels can
save shoppers money, give
new recipe ideas, and help
them choose the foods best
liked by their families.
This is the theme of a new
Oregon State university cir
cular offered to Oregon resi
dents through county exten
sion offices. "Read the Label
to Stretch Food Dollars" Is
the bulletin title.
The author, Jean Sliipman,
OSU consumer marketing
specialist, says shoppers can
increase their buying powr
by learning to use informa
tion stated on labels. For ex
ample, of two popular brands
of condensed cream of
chicken soup one contained
more chicken than the other.
By reading list of ingredients,
shoppers can know in ad
vance what they re buying,
notes Miss Shipman.
Chemical names listed on
package labels may appear
long and dangerous, but shop
pers are assured that chemi
cals have been tested and ap
proved for use in foods by the
Federal Food and Drug pd
ministralion. Miss Shipman
points out that use of these
additives makes food more
palatable, offers more variety
and makes food definitely
safer.

Deen and son Steve, Butte
