Put Away The Cookie Tins, Hortense, The Store-Boughten Ones Are Better
Chicago—(UP)—The American housewife isn't above passing off factory-made cookies as her own, a cookie manufacturer told the annual convention of the biscuit and cracker association in Chicago.
Agard Billings, who learned to make cookies in Sweden and started his own factory in Chicago in 1917, said the ladies had given up making cookies because professionally made cookies are cheaper and better.
“Our cookies taste the same each time,” Billings said. “We don't have good results one time and bad results another.”
He said his cookies are cheaper because manufacturers buy in quantity and probably better because a quantity buyer can demand quality.
"If the housewife computed the costs of her ingredients she would (see our cookies are money-savers," he said. "But most ladies are too proud to admit they aren't economizing."
Billings said that there had been no great change in making cookies. "We use assembly line methods," he said, "but it's still the same cookie that grandmother made in her kitchen."
"There's no substitute for quality. I don't think you can fool your stomach, no matter what the chemists say." Billings concluded.

Thirsty? Get A Twig, Find Your Own Well
To "water - witch" or "water-douse." Mr. Mann explained, you merely grasp two ends of the twig and walk slowly over the ground to be tested. When the third end suddenly points earthward, seemingly of its own accord—you've struck water.
Orchard Park, N.Y.—(UP)—Scoff if you wish, but Dr. Herbert C. Mann, a 61-year-old local physician, claims he can locate hidden water with nothing more than a plain Y-shaped twig.
Just how the twig is drawn to water, Dr. Mann admits he's unable to explain.

Atomic Bombardier Recalls Chaos Of Three Years Ago
Fort Worth—(UP)—The bombardier who dropped the second atomic bomb on Japan stood near a gaint B-36 superbomber at Carswell air force base today. He recalled that moment three years ago when he watched the sprawling city of Nagasaki turn abruptly into smoking rubble.
"I pressed the release and . . . bingo! No more Nagasaki," said Capt. Kermit K, Beahan of Houston, who$\textcircled{4}$ this week reported for duty at they found it obscured by clouds Eighth air force headquarters here
"Three days later I was selected as bombardier for the Nagasaki mission," Captain Beahan said. "It's a day I'll never forget."
The Hiroshima raid had gone off with clock-like precision, and crew-men on his plane expected the Nagasaki mission to be another "near picnic" the captain recalled. But they were disappointed.

'Look Around Dr. Foster Urges
Cautioning the more than 80 students present not to "jump at the first chance for marriage," Dr. Robert G. Foster, professor of home economics, opened the series of lectures on love and marriage Thursday in Myers auditorium.
Dr. Foster said it is wiser to date a number of persons before choosing a mate. "Adequate preparation for marriage is just as important as it is in learning a profession or trade," he said.
No accurate scientific test has been evolved for mate selection. However, Dr. Foster said, factors which sociologists and psychologists believe important are physical and occupational nearness, a person's conception of the perfect mate, and a healthy parental relationship.
He added that a stable family background, adequate sex education, and similar religious backgrounds are also important.
"The only test on which to base marriage is love, but it is not true that there is a 'one and only' for each of you." Dr. Foster explained. "One can not afford to be too choosie, or to wait too long."
Dr. Foster said that research indicates fewer marriages break up in direct relation to the length of time the couple goes together before marriage. The ideal length for the acquaintance is 18 to 24 months, with the engagement period lasting four months, he said.
Men outnumbered women 10 to 1 at the lecture.

they found it obscured by clouds. Their orders were clear enough, though. The atomic bomb was to be dropped by sight and by sight only. No instrument bombing through cloud blankets.
As the plane veered toward an alternate target, Captain Beahan spotted a rift in the clouds. He could see the Japanese city clearly. Secondes later it was "bomb away."
Their mission completed, the airmen returned to their base on the island of Tinian.
Today, the captain is more interested in finding a home than in atomic bombs.
"We were celebrating the event when I suddenly remembered it was my 27th birthday," Captain Beahan said.
