BY Betty Beole

Mr.. Enrich Is nuts about anything
that has to do with the old wild
west. Sagebrush about his house
brings him the smell of the desert.
samples of copper ore from Nevada
remind him of the home state
and pictures, primitive wood cary
ings. etc. constantly help revive
his nostalgia for the great open
spaces. His wife, Marian, an
author herself-she is now writing
another child's book on animal
folklore-insists on having a sup
ply Of silver dollars on hand all
the time. 4
Having first written a picture of
the old, wild west, Duncan is cur
rently involved in compiling an
anthology on the lesser known
Western writings and writer's of
the 10th century. He has un-
earthed writings OF Mark Twain
and Brett Hart that people are
not familiar with and an unknown
story by Dan de guile called THE
Eagles Nest" that will make any,
one who has a fear of great height
reach for the nearest drink, he
says.
But of particular interest are
the short stories of two completely
unknown writer's, James w. Gally
and a Protestant missionary by
the name of Parson Ralph Riley.
About the former, whose writings
OF the early mining days in Nevada
reveal a wonderful sense of
humor and of regional color, Mr..
Enrich can discover very little.
So far he has found out only
the dates of his birth and death
and that he lived in Nevada for
10 years. It seems amazing that
writings or writer's could have SO
dropped out Of the picture in such
recent times. but "Comstock Bon
anza" will be q compilation of
almost entirely unknown works.

Minister obviously believes that
otherwise it's very beneficial.
Whether he decided it must be
a good way to get ones ear close
to the ground or just clear ones
head, I don't know. but Donald
Dawson, Administrative Assistant
to the President, no sooner heard
Mr.. Nehru than he started stand
ing on his head. In fact, he
showed Secretary of Agriculture
Charles Brannan how it was done
and egged him on till he did it.
Maybe Mr.. Brannan, who can
claim an athletic figure himself
hesitated thinking-"Oh what the
critics of my farm plan might
say now!" Cute Alva Dawson
sat by in amazement at her hus-
bands prowess.

A husband says: my wife wants
to have wild duck carved in the
kitchen and I think she's wrong.
I think it should be carved at the
table. I used to do all the cary
ing in this house, and I'm really
pretty good at it. but I didn't
mind losing the job when we got
a maid who could do 1t in the
kitchen. But I draw the line at
wild duck. and would go so far as
to say that even in, very stylish
houses it is considered correct to
carve on the dining table,"
You are right! In no matter
how formal a house, it would
prove that the host is unable to
carve should the ducks not be
placed in front of him to be
carved-particularly is this true If
he shot them.
Broken Engagement
Dear Mrs. Post: Please tell me
if your edict that an engagement
ring belongs to a man and should
be returned to him If the engage

He cancelled our engagement by
letter and two weeks later was
married to some one else, still
have the ring and we are miles
apart and I had no inkling Of his
change of mind before the letter
just mentioned.
Answer: I must say in this par
ticular situation you might per-
haps keep the ring if it gives you
any particular satisfaction to do
so. Ordinarily, however. this
would be very wrong.
Hospitality to Guests

way of hospitality can the rela-
tives expect when they go between
100 and 200 miles to wedding i?

access to a car, and yet the re-
ception is taking place some miles

Wahwee, (Mrs. Douglas Mac
