"TT'S OBVIOUS that that old skinflint isn't going to pay
A anv attention to the bills I sent him," Dentist Pullman
"I'm going up to his apartment
told his wife one evening.
and collect in person."
An hour later he was
back, looking very glum.
"I can see by your face
he didn't pay you," said
his wife.
"He not only didn't
pay me," conceded Dr.
Pujlman ruefully, "but
he bit me with my own
teeth."
One lecturer I know has
devised a soul-satisfying
answer to boring ladies who
clutch at him as he is re
treatin? from the podium
to ask, "I'll bet you don't remember where we met before." He
gazes soulfully at the questioner and says, "Madam, if I remem
bered a beautiful lady like you, how could I get any work done?"
Mayor LaGuardia of New York once gave a reception for
Thomas Mann, the famous German author, who wrote "The Magic
Mountain." "New York," His Honor told Mann, "is divided into
two parts: those who have read your wonderful books and those
who only say they have." LaGuardia then added, "I refuse to
Btrte publicly to which group I belong."

Variations on Popular
Potato Salad Theme
No one ever beard of a
picnic without potato salad.
Declare your independence by
taking it easy whenever you
can throughout the summer.
Fix the potatoes for the salad
the day before; store them
whole in the refrigerator.
For each six persons to be
served, boil or bake five or
six large Long White baking
potatoes until done. Spear
with two-tine fork to let
steam escape. Later, peel and
cut into either chunks or
slices (we're not taking sides
on this).
Combine three-quarter cup
mayonnaise or mayonnaise
and dairy sour cream half
and half, one teaspoon celery
seed, one teaspoon salt, one
half teaspoon freshly ground
pepper, three tablespoons
vinegar, one tablespoon su
gar; add two stalks celery,
chopped, three medium sour
or sweet pickles, chopped,
one medium size onion,
chopped, three hard - cooked
eggs, chopped (reserve one
egg for garnish if you like).
Pour dressing over diced
or sliced cooked potatoes and
turn gently to distribute dress
ing. Sprinkle with paprika
and tuck parsley sprigs
around bowl edge for pretty
ing-up.
Deviled Potato Salad. Use
above dressing and add one
tablespoon prepared mustard
and one teaspoon horseradish
Dill Potato Salad. Leave
out celery seed in dressing
above and substitute sprin
kling of dill seeds: substi
tute dill pickles for sweet or
sour pickles.
Iced Tea Dresi-Ups
For iced tea compliments,
first use briskly boiling wa
ter using half again as much
tea as for hot tea (one tea
spoon of loose tea or one tea
bag for each cup). Steep three
to five minutes; strain or re
move tea bags. When using
instant tea, put one rounded
teaspoon, more or less, of In
stant tea into glass. Add wa
ter from cold water tap, stir
until clear, add ice.
For glamour, use tinted ice
cubes made by adding food
coloring. Impale glass with
lemon, lime or orange wedge
Frost rim of glass by dipping
first in fruit juice and then
in sugar. Serve with a fresh
pineapple spear or mara
schino cherry with stem,
Skewer pineapple chunks,
maraschino cherries and mel
on balls on sippers.
Franks Are Star-Spangled
Fare Throughout Summer
The versatile frankfurter
needs no recommendations
from us; will be on a major
portion of shopping lists each
week. We suggest this very
good main dish knowing full
well that most of them will
be simmered, grilled or broil
ed and served with any of
many relishes and tucked into
buttered or mayonnaised hot
hotdog buns. Few things are
more disappointing than a hot
dog in a cold bun.
Frankly Quick. This delec
table dish can be brought to
the table in the skillet along
with a crusty bread and a tart
relish. For four persons, six
frankfurts. Slice three medi
um tomatoes one-half inch
thick into skillet. Top with
thin slices of one onion and
strips of green pepper. Slice
six franks in half, first length
wise, then slanchewise and
place on the vegetables. Cover
and cook slowly about 15
minutes. Sprinkle one cup
shredded cheese over; add
salt and pepper, then cover.
Turn off heat; cheese will
melt. Family and friends will
like. For a crowd, consider
making several batches.
Picnic Pointers
Table Covers. Cover picnic
tables with substantial wrap
ping paper, thumb-tacked at
corners. For decoration use
ready-pasted wall paper trim
or arrange local ferns or
greens.
Borrow Grills. When serv
ing a large crowd, borrow
three or four portable grills
from a good neighbor; speeds
up cooking, helps keep food
hot. provides more elbow
room.
Paper Products. Use shop
Ding bags for easy carrying
of Dicnic supplies and for
later disposing of debris.
Plenty of newspaper in pack
ing will come in handy for
campfire making and for
cleaning up. Put in extra sup
plies of paper plates, cups,
towels, napkins.
Bring Your Own. Many
i younger generation couples
ask "playmates" to bring
their own steaks, chops,
, broiler-chicken halves or oth
er personal choice for indi
vidual preparation and cook
ing over glowing coals. Host
ess supplies other food and
soft drinks.
Do It Beforehand. Butter
rolls at home to save bother
at picnic. Wrap green onions,
radishes, carrot strips, celery
sticks and olh.-r relishes first
In dampened paper towels,
then In waxed paper or trans
parent wrap to keep them
crisp.
Never does our auper abun
dance of good things show up
as spectacularly as right now
and on through the summer
harvest season. We have space
here to hint at but a few of
the plentiful!. Advertisements
in this newspaper highlight
the best buys of produce men
in our super markets. Other
seasonal specials are stacked
high in market aisles begging
your attention and admira
tion.
Fruit Delights. Pile high
bowl of fresh fruits for out-
of-hand eating. Put it on table
for dessert pleasuring. There
are peaches, plums, apricots,
cherries and grapes; small
size Valencia oranges and ba
nanas. Berries of the moment
include OUalies, Boysenber-
ries and strawberries for
serving with any of the many
creams, coffee cream, nail
and half, whipping cream,
dairy sour cream, ice cream.
Other Goodies. Make berry
muffins. Boysenberry cobbler.
fresh raspberry sherbet, peach
shortcake. Mid-summer canta
loupes are joining the galaxy
of melons. Watermelons are
certain to be on every list dur
ing the coming week. Serve
them cold, cold, cold!
Salad Makers. All varieties
of lettuce, cabbage, carrots,
cauliflower, celery, tomatoes
and other salad makers are
of superb quality. If you
haven't tried slicing fresh
mushrooms into a salad, you
are missing a treat as well
as a conversation piece.
Corn on the cob, of course!
You'll want sliced cucumbers
for putting in dairy sour
cream. Try French frying
summer squash. Frenched
ereen beans react well to
touch of grated onion.
Menu Reminders. Fried,
broiled or barbecused chick
en, hot one day, cold the
next. Sliced cold meat loaf
from delicatessen or home
made. Cottage cheese with
sliced tomatoes, green pepper
rings, avocado half-moons -or
with sliced peaches, melon
slices or any of the berries.
Abundance of eggs at Dar
ealn prices reminds us to fix
dpviled eggs as snacK, appe
tizer or for adding to salads
or garnishing cold meat and
cheese trays.
Other Plentiful. Along
with broiler-fryers, there are
turkeys, whole and in parts.
Look for big specials in beef,
pork, lamb and ham. Vary
menus with fish and shellfish.

Agenda Prepared
For Meeting of
JFK, Macmillan
London - IUPII - U.S. Secre
tary of State Dean Rusk and
top British officials, alert for
possible surprises irom oo
viet Premier Nikita S. Khru
shchev, today worked on an
agenda for the weeK ena
"summit" meeting between
President Kennedy and Prime
Minister Harold Macmillan.
Rusk planned to meet For
eign Secretary Lord Home for
a "working lunch at ine ibi
ter's private residence. Later
both men scheduled discus
sions with other ministers and
top officials.
McGeorge Bundy, the Pres
ident's assistant for security
affairs, planned to fly in
from Paris to participate in
preparations for Kennedy's
23 - hour visit with Macmillan
at Birch Grove. Kennedy will
arrive from Ireland on Sat
urday. Bundy conferred with
French Foreign Minister Mau
rice Couve de Murville and
leaders of the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization in Paris
Thursday.
Diplomatic sources here
said the coming meeting will
center on next month's nu
clear test ban talks in Mos
cow, Kennedy's proposals for
a mixed - crew Polaris sur
face force under NATO, the
alliance itself and East-West
relations in general.
Speculation that Khrush
chev might have "something
up his sleeve" stemmed from
the sudden announcement of
his trip to East Berlin. The
visit will coincide with the
Kennedy Macmillan meeting
here.
Goldfinch Sings and Suns
While Other Birds Work
With the advent of spring, 1
most bird couples are busy
building nests, laying eggs ;
and, a little later, feeding and i
training their young. The idea
is to get family raising out of
the way before the heat of
summer becomes too opprcs-1
sive, making nesting very un
comfortable. Besides, the bird
that is hatched early is strong
er, more fully developed and
ready to migrate when the fall
comes.
During these times of fever
ish activity, another bird spe
cies, one of the tamest and
most cheerful as well as the
most colorful, is merely glori
fying the landscape with its
beauty and its twittering song,
making no preparation at all
in the nest building line.
Goldfinch Acts Slow
Other birds may nest early
but the goldfinch acts as if he
had all the time in the world.
These sociable birds, traveling
over the fields and city lawns
in small groups, figure that if
they get the nest started in
July it will be time enough;
some may even wait until
August. There have been in
stances where a goldfinch
pair would wait until Septem
ber. Some may even be teach
ing the newly hatched the
technique of flying as late as
October.
The reason for this late
start in nest building and fam
ily raising has never been
fully explained by students of
bird behavior, unless it is
timed to coincide with late
flowering plants that will fur
nish edible seeds for the
young.
The goldfinch family may
even decide to remain in the
north all winter long. The
sight of these colorful birds
against a snow covered field
or backyard is a warming
sight for people weary of an
otherwise colorless and mo
tionless winter landscape.
Bright Lemon Yellow
The spring plumage of the
male goldfinch is a bright,
lemon yellow, with black
wings and tall feathers. Pre
dominantly yellow, it is little
wonder that it is often called
"wild canary." Being common
In most of its range it has re
ceived a great many common
names such as thistlebird,
probably because of its pref
erence for tntstiedown lor lin
ing the nest; beet-bird, or let
tuce bird, because of its pres
ence in gardens.
It is called "shiner" in some
areas as well as "salad bird"
or "catnip bird."
The goldfinch has a fond
ness for dandelion seeds, and
being as yellow as the blos
soms themselves, has become
associated with this weed In
people's minds, and therefore
known as "dandelion bird.
Whatever it is called, the gold
finch is economically benefi
cial, for weed seeds form the
bulk of its diet, along with
insects.
Twitter in Flight
The colorful goldfinch sings
while he feeds, a soft, musical
twittering song somewhat like
that of the canary. When they
take wing they forget to stop
singing and twitter away
while in flight. The flight is
unusual, a peculiar series of
undulations, somewhat similar
to a gallop. The American
goldfinch occupies a large sec
tion of the eastern U. S. while
the western goldfinch Is com
mon from the Rocky Moun
tains westward.
Mr. and Mrs. Goldfinch are
not averse to using an aban
doned blackbird nest as a
nursery for their own young.
They refurnish the nest with
some bark strips and line the
Inside with soft thistledown.
Mrs. Goldfinch is less color
ful than her husband; he's the
flashy one.
FREEWAY FLAVOR
Los Angelcs-OlrK-A truck
driver swerved to avoid a

The freeway was flavored

hour.
