News and Views If you have becbme one of the skeptics about the TV contest programs, let us renew your faith. Charles MacCallum, through his talents, won second prize on a popular television program. His prize consisted of a Persian lamb fur jacket, watch, washer and dryer, work-bench, camera, typewriter, bicycle, and outboard motor. He has also just been notified he is a third prize winner in another contest, the prize being a check for $1000. His family have all laughed at his hobby of entering contests, but they are beginning to sit ' up and take notice. According to Bea they are more thrilled over the bike for their grandson than anything else. Of course it's a super, superdeluxe model, and the dream of any boy. Need any box tops, Mac? How about some more phone calls, we know this is a dreary time of the year, but surely something must be happening at your house. READ THE WANT ADS.

The other night eft She Wees', Curley was sfeahimg his head over "young people," fois daughter in particular. "Can't tell her a thing," said Curley. "She wants a dining room set for a wedding present, so I said her mother might let her have ours. Beautiful set, too, only she claims it's 'out of style,' can you beat that?" "Now, Curley," said Mrs. Rice, "you ought to know better. My mother gave us that set when we got married and I told her the same thing!" From where I sit, no two people have the same taste in clothes, furniture -- or beverages, for that matter. Bat we should off have respect for each other's preferences.
