This little piggy stayed home. This little piggy had roast beef. This little piggy had none. Most of us are fast developing a sympathy for the last little piggy mentioned in the nursery rhyme. We also strongly suspect that the first little piggy who went to mar ket feasted his piggish eyes on an array of clean white enamel pans. There are plenty of ‘‘little piggies” today who have none—and it isn't because they can’t afford roast beef or because they are too lazy to go shopping for it. With mortification we recall the times that we had “stew” on those menu-slump days, the way we used roast cuts so freely for sandwiches, the casual air with which we gazed at piles of steaks. Oh, those tor turing thoughts are enough to crumple us into the abyss of shame! We haven't heard anyone in au thority giving us encouragement about more meat being available, either. The articles headed, “When You Have No Meat” all say, “Eat more cheese and eggs, drink more milk.” That changes the situation only to the degree that you are I hunting cheese and eggs instead of a tasty piece of cow, pig, or lamb. Wonder If vegetarianism will work in a democracy? IP YOU ARE WORRIED ABOUT prices in this country, and that should include everyone, then real ize you have a kindred brother in Russia. If he wants a three-piece tweed suit he has to possess $1,300 to pay for it. A Woman’s Persian lamb coat costs $6,300, while shoes j are valued from $400 to $860 a1 pair. MRS. FRANK MOORE OF Austin, Texas, writes that it was Kipling’s poem, “The Wi dow at Windsor” instead of “The Recessional” which lost the poet laureateship of Eng land for that poet. Moral: The Eyes of Texas Are Upon You. MENTION OF KIPLING Sug gests a cartoon from the roaring twenties found in the “Cartoon Cavalcade,” a history of the car toon in America compiled and edited by Thomas Craven. The sweet young thing is sitting on the campus lawn with a couple of fel lows, and one says to her, “Do you like Kipling?” “I don’t know," she replied. “How do you kipple?” GENTLE REMINDER*. We are all guilty, or most of us, of care lesly throwing paper on the streets, dropping drug store cups on the sidewalk, or in people’s front yards, and tossing wrapping paper to the winds. The practice is boorish, however, and we should be more careful. One Shelby housewife called me WEBB TODAY - SATURDAY "HIDDEN VALLEY OUTLAW" BILL ELLIOTT — AND — "SHADOWS IN THE NIGHT" WARNER BAXTER Also NEWS — CARTOON COMEDY — SERIAL MONDAY - TUESDAY BING CROSBY "GOING MY WAY" lot long ago and said, “I live just the right distance from a drug store to get all the crumpled cups md paper napkins right in my 'ront yard. I wish people could be i little more considerate.” We can. Asking people not to dirow' paper around is such a small requirement. We can meet it if we i will. THIS WEEK ONE OF Ol'R South Pacific servicemen wrote home to the effect that he would probably he arrested twelve hours after he got bark to the states. “The reason," he continued, “is because I am go ing to find me a good Amer ican street corner in any Amer ican town and sing at the top of my voice ‘God Bless Amer ica’.” Sailor, we'll all be there singing with you.
