FRIDAY, Marriage Is Now Strictly Business For Berliners AP Newsfeatures BERLIN Marriage is strictly a business proposition for those Ber liners who believe in advertising. Love to the Germans who adver tise every tfay in the Berlin press is something one reads about in books. In these hard times it evi dently does not mean a thing com pared to such important matters as a good business, a home and an income. The male of the Berlin species makes no bones of the fact that he seeks a female who has either her own business or a good job. "Barber, widower with 10 year old son, seeks acquaintance of nice colleague with intention of marrying into her shop," ad vertises one male. A master craftsman who de scribes himself modestly as "hand some" advises he'd be willing to 'many into an auto repair shop or transport works." " A businessman who boasts he is "not only handsome and versa tile but also has a truck and money," tells all comers he wants a "nice woman who has a store and exists on a proper solid lusis." Seemingly only the artists worry ;ilji)ut such minor matters as the color of their intended's eyes. "Looking for a young, dark haired woman with blue eyes," im plores a painter in his middle thir ties. Not a true Bohemian, he adds thoughtfully she "should have a home or property." One dark-haired 28-year-old girl is looking for a wounded war vet eran who "likes music and has an irreproachable character." Most women, though, cannot for get the hard realities of present clay Berlin life. One widow "of fers marriage into my blacksmith's shop"; the "only daughter of a home owner" advises she has an old firm in Lower Bavaria and of fers marriage into this watchmak er's shop; and one enterprising unit advertises that her 36-year-old niece "seeks a tailor who would like to marry into her tailor's hop." Among a single day's crop of would-be marriage seekers, the optimism prize went to a 62-year-old gentleman. He said he wanted a "marriage with love."

Library Notes AP Newsfeatures What does a young woman's fan cy turn to in Spring? You guessed it boys!! At our hen-roost the pther night the Jacksons were the big topic of conversation. One of the kids wanted to know whether girls should let boys kiss 'em on the first date. Some of the kids thought a little peck on the cheek didn't make a whale of a lot of difference, and after all the boys expect it. The rest of the heps thought it silly to seem too eager to kiss a boy on the first date. And why kiss a boy you aren't even sure you like positive ly promiscuous, they decided. But the big problem is this, say the girls what to do if the boy tries anyway? j if the girl is at a movie or on an early date near her home, this shouldn't be a problem. But teen lagers who neck on wild parties, automobile trips or in secluded spots are asking for trouble. Such situations may serve as a i source of encouragement to a boy who may not be easily discouraged. The kids also decided that you don't have to pet to be popular; j boys who want to be wolves I should be ostracized from the group; a boy can appreciate your liking him without being overly friendly. Have you ever been to a zoo? it can be lots of fun. Of course the kids always have an excuse MARGARET JOHNSTON County Librarian (Continued From Last Issue) FICTION Bridge Four part setting.

Thirty -six persons were injured, three seriously, when the train struck a broken rail. (International) such as "I'm taking my little sis- iter." but it's big sister who usually I does the squealing . . . and you'd really squiver if you saw lavender, , blue, yellow, black, chocolate and i spotted mice; a talking crow; baby I llama, lambs, ducks, geese, skunk, Iguineapigs and pigeons, j Maybe this is animal season, because the kids have also adopt ed plastic button animals in the shape of squirrels, horses, fawns, cocker spaniels and bulldogs. They are wearing them on charm bracelets, bobby-pins and even earrings. Now that the camping season is j here, kids will have to be wary of clothes and blankets which may be j burned and more important than ! that of stray sparks which may burn them. j If all washable camping clothes. such as shirts and overalls, dun garees, etc., are dipped in a solu tion of noninflammable salts and water, damage may be averted. Here's the way: Dissolve 7 ounces of borax and 3 ounces of boric acid 'dry) in 2 quarts of hot water. Stir until borax is dissolved and then dip clothes which already have been washed. Make sure garments are saturated. Wring as dry as pos sible and hang in the shade to dry. If ironing is necessary, use a mod erately heated iron. Non-washable fabrics blankets and heavy wool clothes should be sprayed with the solution. This finish , will last as long as garments aren't washed or get soaked with rain. It must be applied again after laundering. Bye Drip, Senate Rejects Plan To Toughen Labor Bill WASHINGTON iAPi Rebuff ing Republican leaders, the Senate defeated, 44 to 43, a proposal to write a limitation on industry-wide collective bargaining into pending labor disputes legislation. It was a stinging setback for Sen ator Taft (Ohio), chairman of the Senate's GOP Policy Committee and the Labor Committee. He along with Senator Wherry (Neb), the Republican whip, 'nad predicted passage of the amendment by a "comfortable margin". The amendment would have out lawed recognition of national unions for bargaining purposes, with some exceptions. There are almost 700,000 beds in mental hospitals, in the United States.
