THERE'S A MAN IN OUR TOWN
Who like many men does not care
especially for certain kinds of salad.
Among these are those vegetable sal
ads made up with ge1atine. Not long
ago at a dinner at his home where
there was company. the salad hap
pened to be a combination one put
together with gelatine. OF course wo-
men all like this kind and one of the
guests called up the next day over the
phone to inquire just. how that deli
cious salad was made.
When the head Of the house heard
about it he said to his daughters.
why girls. she is just making fun of
you. That woman: has the best sense
of humor 1 ever saw. Actually when
tasted that salad I wondered what
was in it. thought you must have
accidentally spilled something into it
and 1 looked around the table to see
| if anybody else could eat it." Thus do
tastes differ
But they say 1t takes both compli-
| ments and criticisms to develop char
acter SO perhaps it takes very much
| the same process to develop a culinary
artist. and the criticism is applied by
| the paternal ancestor very much as
| the single is to the small boy "for
| the good Of the person receiving it.
| In the case of the salad, however, 1t
| may have been an unjust punishment
Drought to bear on account of personal
prejudice, not so much individual as
purely masculine against anything
made with gelatine.
