PAGE TWO HAMILTON SEZ: All women are divided into seven parts. . . . No, not exactly , . . what I mean is that all worn enkind are divided into seven kinds. That is to say that the ex perts on the contrary sex agree that there are seven kinds of women and seven subdivisions of each kind. But the experts also agree that no two experts can decide in which category or sub category to place any one of the one thousand million females that inhabit this, the planet Earth. Therefore we will start with the established fact that there are seven kinds of women. But the important function of Imenm this learned discussion is to indicate to the gentler sex, in ■I this pleasing and sugarcoat ed manner, that M all men, that is 311 good ^6“ I (and all men Hi are good) need exactly seven wives. Seven wives, no more and no less. Scientific research has de veloped the proposition that no wife will ever have the least fear of losing her husband if she can produce for her husband on the seven wife basis. In fact it is just those wives that specialize that wind up in Alimony Alley. And if every girl now married or in the process of landing a man . . . will carefully follow these simple directions as unrolled here she will never lose her man. Now the first consideration is that no man likes bakers’ bread or to have his carrots taken out of a can ... in fact he doesn’t like carrots. Men also like to break their false teeth on pop corn but not on biscuits. The log ical deduction is that every wife should be a fine, economical cook, the kind of cook that cooks stuff to eat . . . not to look at. Men like com bread and roast leg of lamb . . . not fancy stuff outa SALE! save money! save face!

One of a Milwaukee zoo’s Hons “Shorty’’ had his 11th birthday here today so his keeper thought he rated a cake. Promptly Shorty got his cake and the people pressed around his cage eager to witness his appreciation, but what happened? Shorty just gave his customary roar and settled back to his customary diet of raw meat, which also was placed in the cage. cook books like green pistachio nut salad. Thirdly—Men like a little ro mance. They like the kind of wife that other men whistle at . . . that is if they weren’t afraid her husband would put a dent in their smellers. Men like to be adored, to be listened to attentively, to be acclaimed the brain trust around the homestead. They want a wife with soft hands, with dim ples, a school girl complexion and an ever present smile. In the fourth place, a married man with the responsibility of supporting the family needs a business partner, especially one that will take over many of the unhappy details that enter into bringing home the bacon. A far mer likes to have a wife that not only can but will milk the cow or cows, and that can run the tractor for at least one shift a day. A man running a service station, a flour mill, a foundry or a sawmill should have a wife that can take over whenever he must be away at con ventions. Fifthly—Men like companion ship . . . they like to have the best of food when taking a well earned vacation. Men like women that insist on going with them after elk, deer, trout, pheasants and What’s Happened to Prefab Housing? HF•< ” -'iWir- I Bsk** J KL-— ——MUM R I « Th i * w- m Jf- ‘ Taxpayers are demanding an answer to the prefab housing situ-) t ation while the housing shortage continues acute everywhere and a! 7% decrease in building is predicted for 1950. In asking what happened l to housing like the unit above, it’s possible the answer may be con , tained in what happened to House Resolution 393, which calls* for an investigation of Lustron Corporation of Ohio. HR 393 was introduced) I by Albert M. Cole (Rep.) Kansas. Cole, inset above, a native of Tdpeka.l । Kas., represents the first Kansas district, and is a member of the im portant banking and currency committee. 4 Surveying the prefab history shows: Prior to the war—some talk. Planning during the war. Promises after the war. 4 Some private manufacturers are doing the job and are producing houses in the promised price brackets. Lustron became a congressional storm center last summer when its president, Carl G. Strandlund. Columbus, Ohio, told a House committee he launched the corporation into the prefabricated housing industry with SI,OOO of his own money and $37% million borrowed from the RFC. An RFC official has an nounced that RFC lending to Lustron has been halted. 1 Lustron’s program of color advertising and reams of publicity of a 5-room house at $7,000 resulted in a suggestion of scandal, a unit price at twice that amount in Chicago, and since has abated into aU quiet. Perhaps prompt action on the Cole resolution will give the much in demand answer to the question above. * ~— BREWERY GULCH GAZETTE ducks. Men like their women to enjoy exactly the same kind of sports and entertainment that they like themselves . . . and no other kind. If a man likes to ride horseback, his wife should also ride. If a man likes prize fights in preference to bridge it should be prize fights. If the man is a great lover of dogs, the home should have dogs. Sixth—All men are very fond of other men, and as it happens sometimes these other men have wives. It is necessary for all men to like the wives of the men they like, therefore it is essential that all wives like the wives of the men their husbands like. This sounds very simple, but in ac tual married life it has never really happened. Seventh—The obvious purpose of marriage, that the man may have sons to leave his business to, should not be overlooked. All men want large families of at least three sons, and it is the duty of the little wife of course to carry on her part of the matrimonial bargain, to produce, raise, teach and deliver to her lord said three sons . . . and as many girls as just happen to arrive in the process, polished and accomplished, ready to take over the work from the BISBEE, ARIZONA, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 1950 old man while he continues to furnish the brains. Sometimes the demands upon the little woman would seem to be a little rough, but then she asked for it. As for example, a tourist was in from Nebraska looking at the “Store with No Front” (Ham ilton’s) and I asked him what his racket was. He said that he was half-re tired. I asked him what’s that, half-retired. “Well,” he says, "We were married 32 years ago, we had four kids . . . they’re all mar ried now and away from home. I worked all them years supporting the family . . . and all the little wife done was to take it easy around the house raising them kids. So I’ve done retired now and I’ve turned the business over to her for the next 32 years. And I’m doing the resting and taking it easy at home.” C. A. HAMILTON, Weiser, Idaho. SAGEBRUSH SALVE By Mac Just got the last issue of the Desert Rat Scrap Book published by Harry Oliver at Thousand Palms, California; that guy’s al ways making me trouble. He re prints a couple of little stories from the GAZETTE that were written by S. Omar Barker and now I’ve got to send him a dime so he can send the paper (the only paper you can open in the wind) to Barker. Then he prints some of those little rhymes that George Bideaux puts at the head of his column in the GAZETTE entitled “Down in Cochise County,” and I have to send him another dime so he can send one to George. He gives credit to the paper he copied them from which helps some even if he didn’t mention my name. Lots of great people were born in February including John L. Lewis whose 70th birthday was last Sunday. Margaret Truman, who lives in the big white house on Pennsylvania avenue in Wash ington, was born in Independence, Missouri 26 years ago this month. Her father was county judge of Jackson County, Missouri, at that time; he was a friend of the well known political figure Honest Tom Pendergast. George Wash ington, Abraham Lincoln and Thomas A.

Allen Smith who wrote the book, “We Went Thataway,” in which the humorist tells of his adventures in Bisbee. Buck said he was very much inter ested in Smith’s tour of Brewery Gulch with the editor of the GA ZETTE as his guide and he be lieved every 'word of it. I was much more interested in his tour of Agua Prieta with Percy Bow den, perennial chief of police of Douglas. Buck says he has read all of Smith’s books, a chore we haven’t got around to yet. One of the columnists who wrote for this paper quite a while back made the crack that the BREW ERY GULCH GAZETTE would become famous just about the time that the editor died. It finally got a raise out of one of our read ers back in Massachusetts, who wrote: “Dick Wick Hall, who got out that little paper in Salome, Arizona years ago, became famous and was just about to cash in (financially, that is) by getting his stuff printed in the Saturday Eve ning Post when he cashed in his chips. No one need worry about you (McKinney) or the GAZETTE becoming famous; you should live so long. Already you are infam ous.” Oh, yeah! Izzat so! “Come in, Old Timer,” said the Bartender in the Slag Dump Cocktail Lounge and Social Cent er as the old guy hesitated at the door. “Come in and give me the dope of what you know that ain’t fit to print; you can spill it to me, you know it won’t go no farther.” “We’ve been having a little spell of weather,’ said the Old Gazabo, “And so I thought I’d venture out and enjoy it.
