Alben’s Kisses
By Robert C. Ruark
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 30.—~Midst all the reJoicing over the late-blooming romance of our _ ntic Veep, or Vice President, I was just a litle saddened, like the mother of the bride whe weeps at the wedding. “1 got to thinking how being a married man is going to cut in on dear Alhen’s vice presidential duties, which, it seems to be, have consisted chiefly of going to functions and kissing girls, There may have been some other duties by way of political wage earning, but they were not so well publicized. : It is known by one and all that a bachelor may kiss pretty girls for publication without arousing enmity, except possibly from the boy friends of the girls who are geing kissed, but this i8 a dangerous game for a Benedict, even in line of duty. A foreign flavor of lipstick on a husband’s lips, a smudge of same on shirt, or a festoon of alien hair on a serge collar arouses the beast in a wife, no matter how usually docile.
Dangerous Ground
{ A MAN may come home and say that he has put in a hard day at the office, if the office is a Jutemill or a bank, and mother will get out his slippers and maybe even fix him a toddy to rejuvenate his brain-cells. But if he comes home and says he has put in a hard day kissing Miss Strawberry Festival Queen or Miss Horners’ Corners, 1949, he is going to get a stony stare, at best, and maybe even a skillet alongside his kisser. It is a strange thing about lipstick on handkerchiefs, too, It does not make any difference whether you got it from kissing+hello to your wife's sister, in wife's presence, or whether you got it from Mme. Chiang Kai-shek at a state reception, or maybe even a quickie from the hatcheck chick lipstick on a handkerchief is never really explainable to any wife worthy of wearing the pants in thé house. J 5 Lipstick on the handkerchief, even worse than lipstick on the cheek or collar, conjures up visions of mad revels with lush blonds, if the wife is a

The Indiana law was the first enacted by any government in the world, according to the division's present director, Timothy E. Sullivan. Congress copied the Indiana law in formulating a federal food and drug statute in 1905.

man Kodak Co., which once took a fling at making atoni-bombs for the government, now is in the business of manufacturing some of the chemicals that 20th Century bakers insist on putting into bread.
I don’t know how Sen. Guy M. Gillette (D. Towa) feels about this—he being an old-fashioned
‘+ fellow who likes his bread made of old-fashioned
ingredients—but the Kodak boys convinced me that their distilled monogiycerides are good eating. And also tasty. Some of the lawgivers long have been concerned over the fact that today it takes a chemist, not a cook, to bake a loaf of bread. The bitterest of these claim that such bread tastes like wallpaper cleaner and is about assnourishing as a bale of blotters. What worries Sen. Gillette, chairman of an agriculture subcommittee, is what’s going to happen to our farmers if the ingredients of bread are to be found in a chemical factory.
Toasted Chemicals
SO HE called in Dr. Norris Embree, a youthful chemist with a crew haircut, representing the Distillation Products Co., of Rochester, N. Y. This firm is a subsidiary of the snapshot business. Dr. Embree got started working on high-vacuum distillation for the production of vitamins and, well, you krfiow scientists. One thing leads to another.

The fact is, he said, that recipes for cake as printed in most of the ladies’ magazines specifically call for shortening that contains monoglyceride. the result goes flat. But isn't it possible, Sen. Gillette demanded, for a lady to bake a cake without using this monoglyceride stuff? . Oh, yes, said Dr. Embree. She can use butter, or maybe lard, and by following an old-fashioned recipe, she'll get an excellent cake. Aha, said the Senators.

They settled on a crinolined gown with 20 yards of white tulle in its skirt, five yards of white satin in its sash and not enough of anything on top. » ~ .
“IT WAS a nice dress,” said the Hartnell spokesman, “but not quite decent for a royal princess.” 5 A Dior saleswoman flew to London with the dress. Margaret sneaked her in a side door of the palace. The dress was fitted with only Miss Bevan looking on. Margaret pronounced herself “absolutely delighted.” Her mother was anything but delighted, however, when Mar garet sprung the dress on her at a private dinner party.
