Mr.. Bennett SeesH Through
By Harriette Underhill

Our advice to all young interview
ors about to launch on their careers of
inquisitiveness is: Try Richard Ben
nett first. If you can interview him
you can interview anybody.
He is a wonderful actor. There
fore we forgive him much, but oh, he
is difficult!
One night last week we went to see
"Thc Unknown Purple" and after the
performance, while we were still under
the spell of its weirdness, we went
back to Mr.. Benefits dressing room
for an interview
Now, on the stage he is a simple
soul, guileless inventor, and even his
later scenes, where he wrcaks his ven
gcancc on those who have wronged him
are tempered with tolerance and a pity
for those who have sinned because they
are weaker than he.
Perhaps he is like this in real life.
We do not know. because Mr.. Bennett
bafiled US completely. He is a strange
creature, not approachablc through any
of the usual avenues.
We we're ushered into his dressing
room. A small Belgian police dog
barkcd at us and snapped at our new
SIS pumps. Mr.. Bennett was a little
more restrained. He shook hands with
us ard asked US to sit down. We sat
down. And then began long silence.
Our host turned his back and proceed
cd to take off his makeup, regarding
us all the while in the mirror. And
presently all of the makeup was off
and Richard was himself again
He turned from the mirror and
looked at us the way Jane used to look
at Willie Baxter, and then he said,
sorrowfully: well, what are you 60
ing to say?'
We gazed at him. and with our best
brand of sang froid said: Nothing at
all. We came to hear you talk" What
we had really resolved to dc was to
sit there until Mr.. Bennett was ready
to lock up and then leave him with d
silence as deep as his own. But it evil

Even to our duh mind thi, sounded

From where are. we to get more cheese when none is being imported from Europe, and we now consume all that our American dairies are manufacturing? Why, from our neighbor Canada, of course. For the production of good milk, and hence good cheese, no country in the world is better adapted than Canada. Its prairie provinces occupy the same latitude as do the famous cheese making countries of Europe. The climatic and atmospheric conditions throughout the whole of Western Canada are ideal for the raising of live stock. It is unsurpassed for grazing purposes, being for centuries the home of countless thousands of buffaloes. These were displaced by the great herds of Cattle Rarons' What was good for beef cattle is good for dairy cattle and Canadian dairymen are proving this. If it is desired to supplant grazing with other feed, Canada's rich virgin prairies yield maximum harvests al minimum cost.

Here's a tip to use in your battle with H. c. L. Cheese it. Not in a slangy sense, hut literally. We have had meatless, wheatless and other less days prescribed. We have been urged to eat corn and fish to save wheat and meat. Why has no one urged the use of more cheese?
 In foo value cheese is the equal of most meats and superior of many. It is far less expensive and can te cooked in many ways to make it a staple food. Potatoes, rice. maca- roni, hominy and other cereals baked "au gratin" provide dishes whose richness dispense with meat accompaniment. Europeans have long used cheese in lieu of meats. In many sections of Europe cheese is served at all meals, the cheese dish being as indispensable as our butter dish. There the whole cheese is placed on the table and slices are cut as wanted. This is much more economical than our habit of serving it in bits.
