A WAGGISH country grocer (and inveterate girl watcher on the side) caused considerable commotion in the neighborhood with this sign in his window: “Ten bucks worth of free merchandise to the first girl walking into this store wearing nothing but a topless bathing suit.” He was forced to pony up to a Miss Sue Abernathy, blonde and shameless. Sue was five years old. • • • Chet Huntley is responsible for the story of the highfautin' admiral who was invited for a hunt on a Duke's enormous estate. He reported later that he had brought down one animal the likes of which he never had seen before. “Ail I can tell yoa" he added, “is that it had great big shoulders, a long nose, and an enormous rear.’’ “Good heavens,’’ gasped the English journalist, "he's shot the Duchess!" • • • OVERHEARD: At the Stock Exchange Club: "I act on the principle that what my wife doesn’t know won’t hurt me." At a Rotary Club luncheon: "The air pollution people teU us about all the rubbish in the air. But nobody can force you to Ksten to It!" Prof. J. E. Cooke, at Lafayette College: "If we do not maintain our historic perspective, we are likely—in Henry Thoreau’s famous phrase—to mistake a popgun for the crack of doom." O HB7, by Bennett Cerf.

Georgia Cranfill • * * • Dear Heloise: When you have a house full of people for breakfast, it’s sometimes difficult to serve them eggs all at the same time. Did you know you can serve all of them “sunnyside up” eggs by using cupcake tins? I preheat the tins in the oven with a dab of butter In each one. Break one or two eggs into each cup and bake at about 350 degrees for 15 minutes or so depending on how soft or hard you want them. They come out looking neat and uniform and no one has to wait. Mom gets to sit down and eat with everyone. Ruth Davis • • • • Thanks for writing. Ruth. Your hint arrived just in time since the holidays are coming soon and we’ll all be having lots of company. We love you! Heloise
