Show - Chatter Box j . i Dear Suzy,. I am not sure whether Altht-a Orton is just plain clean, or whether wheth-er Bake caught her in the tooth powder and insisted she use her own in the future and not take any out of stock to polish her molars. At any rate Althea was in the habit of carrying a small dab of tooth powder to work each day she went to the Baker Pharmacy, and she carried it in a small salt shaker, for handiness. It could be, too, that Bake caught her into the Dr. Lyons department and demand ed this arrangement, anyway that was the way it was each day she went to work. One would think that once a day or so would be often enough to polish one's biting implements, but not so Althea. She had to wash her teeth several times a shift. So you can imagine her discomfiture discom-fiture one day when she recognized recog-nized her salt shaker in the hands of Ray Turner, who was busily dousing the contents into his root beer. Althea soon put a stop to the misuse of her tooth powder and told Ray if he liked tooth powder in root beer to bring his own in the future. But Ray had enough in his drink already to make it, according to him, very delectable. He plans on patenting his new drink as one can now satisfy sat-isfy one's stomach for a drink and clean one's teeth at the same time. Should he decide to add a gargle to it I believe he would have something big. With Ray Turner on my mind I 1 also notice that the Delmart ad says "Men's pajamas 20 off." Indecent, I would say. The Wildlife bunch is a group of very nasty and inconsiderate men. They thew another party up the canyon Tuesday night and forgot for-got to invite us women. In fact, they made it very plain on their i posters that the affair was to be j stag and they repeated stag so i many times on the ad that we ' really had to take the hint. Last j year they did invite us women to i go along and it seems that the event was most unpopular and poorly attended.. They, according to them, rectified the mistake of last year, and henceforth and for always, will exclude all women while the men make merry each year on their annual steak bust and lying contest. For this slight upon womanhood woman-hood I feel like giving them a piece of my mind, but then they would come right back and inquire in-quire if I could spare any of my mind, such as it is. The least they could do is either invite me there to get a lot of low down, or else have a recording record-ing made so that I could get my stuff that way. But I suppose they are not particularly impressed with the idea of having their antics, an-tics, actions and imbibings (steaks, of course, no other imbibing of any kind, according to them) made a matter of record. Well, it's quieter here than a small boy going through a cemetery ceme-tery at midnight, so will close and keep my ears open to find out what really went on at the Wildlife Wild-life steak stuffing.
