Ive been this way for as long as I can remember and there is probably no hope for me to change, but I don't mind telling you. it makes for a hard life. For example. I've been afraid of electric can openers since I was 10 years old when my mother's lept out and bit a chunk out of my arm. And I dont dare go near sewing machines. Dont ask me how I did it but I sewed a button onto my finger one day while operating an industrial sewing machine. The next day I sewed one onto my thumb. Needless to say I didnt work at that place for long. I think I was considered a hazard. I don't even get along with my car very well. Some how I just don't trust those creatures ever since I did a balancing act on a guard rail. And now even my camera has turned against me. It would be rather difficult to be a newspaper editor without one, but I'm about ready to try it. You might have noticed how depressingly yuck most of the pictures have been in the paper lately. I hate to take all the credit for it, but I don't know eho else to blame. Darlene Benson called in the other day to see if we could come up with a better copy of the young homemakers picture that appeared in last weeks paper. Denise Dent, one of the girls in the office here, blamed the lousy picture on the press that prints the papers. I thought that was nice of it her. but didn't help Mrs. Benson. awfully And you wouldn't believe what that camera has done to me this week. I was all charged up and ready to take some kids for Carol Ricks. First of all the battery pictures of on my light meter went dead. But Mr. Coleman and $1.08 fixed that. So I enthusiastically shot a whole roll of and Little League ball players. Then I couldnt get the camera open to take out the film. 4-- H Somehow I just couldn't get the right combination of pushing this and pulling that and turning the other thing to get the cotton pickin thing open. Little did I know that even greater horrors awaited me inside. When I finally did get the right combination I joyously popped it open, only to find that some nincompoop, namely me. had put the film in backwards. So I must humbly apologize to Lonny Loveday and all those Little Leaguers. I had some really good shots of you guys, but due to my mechanical genius they're all in the garbage can. And then came the last straw: I really thought that I had worked all the bugs out of my camera procedure. I went through an elaborate checklist "of things that could possibly go wrong and with my luck probably will" as I approached the hospital to interview Eva Clark as this weeks cook of the week. We had a lovely chat and I learned some interesting things. But I was half way back to the office when I realized that I had forgotten to take her picture. Dont worry Patsy, it just takes time!! The refusal of the House to pass an extension of the Sugar Act which has regulated the price of sugar since 1934 has not resulted in a reduced price for sugar as was claimed by those who killed the bill" Sen. Wallace F. Bennett, noted today. Exactly the opposite has happened, as those of us who have worked with the bill expected. he stated. When the House acted on June 5. the price of raw sugar was 24.5 cents per pound. By July 19. the price was 28 cents per pound, an increase of 12.5 percent. "When the Department of its Agriculture indicated support for the elimination of the Act. the price of sugar was 11.2 cents per pound, and never before that date had it been higher than 13.2 cents per pound. In the period between then and June 5, with the word ''out that the Department was opposed to the Act, the price of sugar more than doubled, said Sen. Bennett. There are several reasons that may be assigned to this h, drastic change: There is no such thing as free world market for sugar, since nearly every country in the Free World has done what the United States did and provided a program under which its own people can be sure of an adequate supply. When this controlled world supply has been satisfied, 1 be wise to continue to deliver sugan under their American quota even for the balance of this year. Even if this may not create actual shortage, it creats a psychological anticipation of shortage, and helps force the price up, he said.
