The itsy-bitsy, cute little tigers and rhines and cobras and tsetse-flies . . . Romance! And what do we eat? Well, said Osa Johnson, who from now on is my guotable ex- pert on jungle housewifery, the important thing is that we do eat. And American husbands who live too close for comfort to delicates- sens and the can-opener may find Mrs. Martin Johnson highly quotable alse. Sample monolog for the American husband: “Good morning, m'dear! You look a sight. Now Mrs. Martin Johnson—a'ye know that even in darkest Africa that little glammer gal doesn't let herself go the way you're doing, and you not ten blocks from a beauty parlor? “Why only today I was reading in the paper where some guy named Coons in Hollywood was talking to her—and gosh, was he smitten? He says the little woman can out-glam most of the movie queens. Cute as a bug—but a lot prettier, he says. He says she looked—seems he had lunch with her at the Town House—as if she’d never been closer to a jungle than Metro’s back lot and Ape-Man Tarzan Weissmuller. None of that leathery look—sort of BEIN SOIGNEE (the guy WILL use funny expressions—wonder if hé knows the meaning?) and Fifth Avenue. “But what I was getting to was the way this Osa fixes up a meal. Six months from now she’s going off again to take movies in another part of Africa, and she's doing her marketing. You, m’'dear, wonder whatinhell we're going to eat tonight, but Osa now—why, that little girl does her marketing by the ton. “She’s already started. Buys tins of milk, fruit, juices, vege- | i your favorite ===- Perhaps the greatest test of any product is: "Do the people who use it like it?" Where PERCY'S ICE CREAM is con- CYeEed' the amswér is overwhelmingly ! . ’ try itnow at Percy’s > tables, corned beef—ships it :to| Nairobi, which seems to be.the jumping-off place. That's where she picks up her porters—any- where from 200 fo 250 black boys—and you, m'dear, think I get hungry and cranky. Of course, those boys live on-game and corn fmeal mush—that's all they like—but friend Osa has to see they're fed. “And how would you like it, my pampered darling, if you had to cook baking-powder biscuits for a crew like that? Osa did— what a girl! And you talk about system—when you keep a dozen eggs and a pound of butter in the electric ice box. Osa now—she packs her eggs by the crate, in sawdust in felt-lined boxes, and keeps 'em fresh four months. “And she makes & real home there, off in the wilds where gaso- line is 75 cents a gallon and you can't telephone when you've for- gotten the peas. Speaking of peas—that girl takes along seeds and grows her own fresh vegetables when she's in one spot a few weeks. Radishes.in 12 days! “And say—you know what! Coons says this Osa is the first African explorer he ever met who didn't spring that line about the jungle being safer than a city street. . . . Bet she féels that way, just the same. . . . In the past 25 years she's spent only three in what we laughingly call civilization. . . . M'dear! What are you DOING with that axe? Why, darling, what've I SAID?” #v Hollywood Sights And Sounds DEMOCRATIC WOMEN RK.OPA 10 PICTIPE WILL MEET MONDAY Election of officers will feature | the meeting Monday night at 8 {o'clock of the Democratic Women'’s |Club of Gastineau Channel which |is to be held at Parish Hall in the | Trinity Cathedral. ‘ A social will follow at which time, Mrs. Lola Mae Alexander will sing | | CAPITOL SHOW HAS TWO BILLS FOR WEEKEND “Border ©-Men,” "Beau Hunks™ Open Tonight for Two-Night Run George O'Brien, tne screen's fore- Jmost outdoor star, portrays the rugged type of role which has made him famous in RKO Radio’s “Border G-Man,” at the Capitol, a high- speed action drama of the south- west.
