who Ate The First Oyster?

WHO AUG 1MG pkEbU OySDGEG
In Colchester, England, where for
generations the oyster season is
opened each September with great
ceremony and feasting, the follow
ing explanation is offered:
One thousand years ago tonight
In old Colchester town,
The bravest man who ever lived
Achieved his great renown. i
A Norman Knight-to fear unknown
Fished an oyster from the Colne;
And with utter disregard of Fate
That night the first shelled bivalve
ate.
And steadily since that feat SO bold
The Oysters fame each year in
creased;
They eat him hot-they eat him cold
And he's always present at the
Feast!
And SO tonight we celebrate
With song and dance and flow of
reason
And formally inaugurate
The Festive Oyster Eating Season!.
Perhaps the original oyster eater
had been observing the practice ot
gulls, of flying aloft with an oyster
and then letting it fall onto rock.
breaking the shell, thus enabling
these birds to gain access to the
juicy morsel inside. DR.. Herbert +.
Prytherch, Director of the U. S.
Fisheries Biological Laboratory at
Beaufort, North Carolina, who has
delved deeply into the private life
Of the oyster, tells me that cement
roads extending down to the sea-
shore have proved to be a boon to
these waterbirds. No longer does the
bird have to hunt for a convenient
rock and accurately drop his oyster
so as to score a hit. Nowadays he SIM
ply poises over one of these cement
ribbons of manmade cement and
lets the luckless oyster fall thereon.

question as to who ate the first oys-
ter or how he succeeded in prying
apart the two calcareous shells in
order to gain access to the delicate
flesh inside, we may state with con-
fidence that no nation has been
blessed with such an abundance Of
oysters as occur along the coasts of
the United States. In fact oysters
are our most widely distributed sea-
food, occurring in bays, coves, estuar-
les, and mouths of rivers from Cape
Cod to Texas, and the coastal waters
of the three Pacific States. Further
more, recent legislation has been en-
acted to foster the growing of oys-
tiers in the waters of Alaska.
But some of my readers, living
far from the seashore, may ask,
why should be interested in oys-
tiers. Undoubtedly you know, II
you have not actually suffered from,
deficiency diseases such as anemia.
goiter, pellagara, etc. Oysters be-
long to the. class of protective foods
which are rich in minerals and vita
minis, subject to be discusses lat

The Origin Of Coffee

In the Fourteenth century, an
Arab noticed that his goats became
frisky after browsing among GER
tain shrubs. He curiously chewed
berries from the shrubs and found
them refreshing. Soon thereafter
the beverage brewed from freshly
roasted coffee beans was enjoyed
throughout Arabia. The drinking
of as many as 80 cups of coffee a
day is custom not uncommon In
Arabia. :
