Every married couple should have three houses during their lifetime: the new honeymoon house, the family house, and the tranquillity house. Goodness knows it is much harder to unlearn than it is to learn. t The birds are going South again. The mockingbird is back with a new treasury of songs. The ducks and geese will be hearf as soon as frost up North warns them. So if you want to keep some of them with you through the winter, better get some food in the food shelter. But don't forget to keep something there all the time, for.' after they have learned to expect it, it would be a shame to disappoint

them. , i Persimmons are ripening. The idea that a frost is necessary to ripen them is wrong, although there are so' many variations among the trees it is impossible to say which is which until you have tasted them. They were originally one of the most plentiful trees in the primitive Indiana woodlands; they grow in the poorest and hardest of soils. They have a long tap root which makes them very hard to transplant, but will grow readily from the seed. The flower is yellow, shaped' like the pawpaw and the wild ginger, blooming in Mayor June. The wood is very hard and is used mostly in making shuttles. In case you didn't get the Home Economics Club bulletin for October, try this recipe for a refrigerator pudding. Crush a pound of graham crackers. Add 20 mashmallows cut into small pieces; 1 cup of nutmeats chopped; 1 cup of persimmon, pulp in which 1 cup of sugar has been dissolved.

Mr. and Mrs.

Taft And The Wisconsin Test Senator Taft has come out from behind his Iron Curtain of secrecy and declared his intentions about seeking the ReIpublican presidential nomination in 1948. Observers had been predicting: for some time that he would announce his candidacy: -To decde otherwise would be a tipoff that he and his advisers consider the GOP prospects next year very poor. . - It is much too early to say whether they are of not, although the comeback made by President Truman and the Democratic party since the 1946 congressional elections, as -shown by the Gallup Poll and other surveys, has caused the GOP much concern. Senator Taft wants the nomination badly, and may still believe that he can win if nominated. Moreover, he may be convinced that Governor Dewey can be stopped from getting that honor again. A recent caucus"of western Republican party officials revealed that the Ohio senator is still strong with those who will have considerable to- say about the pledging of delegates. And Taft has his own lieutenants who have been busy for months lining

up support, particularly in the south. ' " - At rlo coma timo riAU'Dirot1 Via caomc acivnnci s-F oiTr?J i

Political N Comment Spiraling food and commodity prices have caused considerable embarrassment to a group of Republican members of the Eightieth Congress, who, a few months ago were assuring everyone the removal of price controls would result in a "leveling off" in cost-of-living prices.

, they could reduce their household expenses if they would quit. . eating entirely, stop wearing clothes and generally quit living. The Ohio Senator, who likes tor prate about the American way of living, free enterprise - nnd elimination of government controls surely must be aware of the fact that going without food and clothing is definitely not what the people of the United States consider the American way. i Americans want to live as well

- Sam's a Matrimony Expert

Sam Abernathy never intended to be a matrimony expert, but he hit the nail on the head the other day when he said: "What marriage really needs is more open minds and a lot fewer open mouths." Sam may not think much of his missus' choice of hats or her habit of serving watercress and cream cheese sajnd. But he keeps his mouth shut (I mean, he just uses it to eat the salad). And the missus never criticizes Sam's affection for that worn-out chair before the fire,

and his mellow glass of beer and pipe at the end of a long day. From where I sit, that prescription would apply to most human relationships. Criticism rarely rouses anything but resentment. But an open mind whether it's applied to a woman's choice of hats, or a husband's preference for a pipe and a moderate glass of beer or two leads to the conclusion that there's right on both sides.
