"As you know the danger
Gus condition trichinosiS can
be brought on by eating raw
pork containing the live tri-
china parasite. Now, If one
could be 100 per cent certain
that raw meat was actually
all beef, we could surely agree
with you that there would be
little danger other than the
possibility Of tapeworm land
this danger Is insignificant

However, a great amount
Of hamburger eaten in this
country is purchased from re-
tail meat markets or from
other sources not operating
directly under Federal meat
inspection supervision. You
must remember that in such
places all meat handled
in the establishment quite
likely is ground through the

Nov. for example, If pork
containing live trichina is
ground and the machine is
not thoroughly dismantled
and cleaned before the hus-

is every likelihood that his
hamburger will contain a sig

which is injected in the

through the grinder.

FAMOUS FABLES

UNEXPECTED: When ac-

his Hollywood career, he
realized that more than act
ing ability would be needed
to get ahead. He would have
to make the movie colony sit
up and take notice Of him.
Whenever he had a free
day, which was more often
than not, he would get all
dressed up in his one expen-
sive suit, get behind the
wheel of a disreputable look
ing auto and go cruising
down Hollywood boulevard.
At each corner he would
park the car, step out and
pretend to window shop. In
variably. the sight of this
fashion plate emerging from
this jalopy caused passersby
to do a double take.
1t wasn't long before he
came to the attention of a
producer, who offered him a
contract.
"One thing I don't under
stand" said the producer.
