the back. Almost any house can
be arranged to accommodate a
studio couch somewhere, and
mine was no exception. The love-
w fabric designs will blend in
with any color scheme you have
and YOU should see the wonderful
effect the bits of gold shot
through the designs makes.
Like | said, it's no mean trick
TO make room for two more
when the house is full up, COM
fortabIY that is, but with new
studio couch like the ones at
AItman's Furniture Store, pres
to! It's done!

I know Donald hates to see his
name in print, but we sat at
Wylk's at coffee yesterday ex-
changing recipes and he gave me
such a wonderful idea, l just have
to give credit where credit is due.
He tells me that Ann pops
smoking hot donutS on the table,
fresh fried for breakfast, in nothing
flat. All she does is have a pan of
fat, sizzling hot on the stove, and
opens a can of Ballard biscuits.
Instead of wasting good dough on
the holes, she just pokes a hole
in and works the biscuit around.
Then pops them in the grease and
fries until brown, and then into
the bag of sugar and cinnamon,
and out hot on the plate for the
hungry family.

As more and more books appear
on the literary horizon, it is wise
to stop and wonder how much
either of happiness or knowledge
is advanced by the multitude of
authors. DR.. Samuel Johnson said
that "He that teaches us anything
which we knew not before, is un-
doubtedly to be reverenced as a
master. He that conveys knowledge
by more pleasing ways may very
properly be loved as a benefac-
tor; and he that supplies life with
innocent amusement will be GER
tainly caresSed as a pleasing COM
panion."
Most Of us who try to add our
little one two, to the world of
books have hopes of being in either
of the three categories. This is
mostly the result of three ways
too. .unconsciously repeating in
orderly fashion the disordered facts
cleaned from much reading, the
results of much living, and the
ability to build one word atop the
other in a cleaning castle of phan-
tasy. It's times like these that
make me afraid to go back and
read what l have written.
