Four dozen ten-inch sausages will be consumed in the current Dramatic Club production, "cannibal Carnival." High-grade frankforts will be eaten, while poor-grade dogs will be thrown. Long loaves of stale French bread with a few fresh loaves interspersed will supplement the degmeat...
...rich could afford the strange meaty taste of avocado pears. Now avocados cost around a dime apiece instead of $5. West Indian avocados are grown in Florida, and some 13,000,000 pounds were imported last season from Cuba (certain spectacular avocados weigh two pounds apiece). But most avocados eaten in the U. S. come from California. Californians look down their noses at the West Indian article; California avocados are Guatemalan or Mexican or a cross beween the two. The Fuerte, a hybrid, called "the sturdy" because it shivered through the Big Freeze of 1913, makes up 75% of California...
Into Albuquerque, N. M., last week rolled a bus with an unusual group of children. None of them had ever eaten an ice-cream cone or seen a cinema, although they lived only 40 miles away in the little Spanish-American mountain village of Juan Tomas.

A big sheet of glazed paper is dipped in water, spread smooth on a table, and gobs of color are dropped on it. The child then swirls the mixture over the paper with both hands, fingers, even forearms, continually creating new designs. Having no crayon or brush to cramp...
Chinese 3a and 3b meet on Tuesdays and Thursdays from noon to 1:30 o'clock. They are getting sick of being pestered with queries as to whether the class consists of a bowl of chop suey eaten chop-chop (quickly) with chop sticks or whether they don't eat at all. It is just another example of New England's smugness that they don't realize that at that time here it is 1:00 to 2:30 o'clock in the morning in China, and that they are asleep at that time...
