THE HUMBLE ECHO
Elephants Are Finicky
And Differ in Appetites
The elephant is regarded as
omnivorous, yet few animals are
more fastidious over their food.
Some elephants like oranges, oth-
ers refuse them. A few like onions,
many dislike them and, when
confronted with one, have been
known to crush the odoriferous
bulb under foot and to return it
to the donor with more dispatch
than courtesy.
Monkeys love eggs, but they
must be “new-laid.” Unlike the
curate, they will not accept eggs
which are only “good in parts."

Children’s Parties
Do the children want to give a
party? Now that schools are let-
ting out and the
youngsters find
themselves with
time on their
hands, a celebra-
tion of their own
may be just the
thing to fill in
their odd moments.
Make it as easy as possible for
them; in other words, keep them
free of worries about table cloth,
plates and napkins. Furnish paper
ones if the occasion warrants. Older
children, of course, can take care of
even the better dishes.
Mother cfan take care of the main
food and supervise the serving if
necessary. Sandwiches, cooling
drinks, appetite-tempting desserts
are popular with the younger set.
