COFFEE ROYAL MAN HUNT ENDS In last week's story, entitled "Royal Solution to the Coffee Dregs Shortage," we were man-hunting. Seems the "hunted man," inventor of this brew sallied forth last Thursday at "hot off the press time," read the squib over a roving Anaheimer's shoulder and allowing no grass to grow under his feet, arrived at the Gazette office, and with bated breath enlightens us. He wears the handle of Lieutenant Commander Martin J. Scatena, is now on terminal leave and a resident of Anaheim, route 2, box 84. The idea for "Coffee Royal," a concentrate, was born aboard a combat transport in the South Pacific, where in the Navy tradition coffee was as rugged as the men. Brewd at 4 a.m., simmering for hours, it took courage to whiff, heroism to drink. So when intolerance to GI java was no longer tolerable, this five-year naval supply officer began formulating a solution. Approval in the officer's ward room plus highly smoothed palates were his rewards. Stateside once again after seeing action on Attu, Kiska, and Tarawa, Scatena brought home his "prescription" to go on trial with his wife as judge. Enough is said, for its "home sweet home" for the three Scatenas . . . living at his father's ranch near Orange-thorpe.

In tents perhaps . . . per-haps we are in tents! There are three kinds of nails: carpenter's nails, toenails and fingernails. The first are used in connection with hammers, wood and swear-words. They also can break, split and bruise the toe-nails, fingernails, toes and fingers,—enough said about Carpenter's nails. Toenails and fingernails protect the toes and fingers unless they are lost in ballet dancing or typing, respectively. Fingernail chewing relieves nervousness. My cousin used to chew on his toe-nails between yells, when he wore blue dresses. This usually meant he wanted a bottle. He doesn't chew them now, but he still likes his "bottle." "Disfiguring" our beaches are girls with painted toenails and fingernails matching their swim suits. Doris and Jean are brief in black satin. The following incidents will describe fingernails and their purpose of adding color into life. I remember a cold day in June or January. It was five o'clock. My arms were bumpy with goose pimples and my blood had coagulated Hot chocolate seemed to be a means for a halting thaw, before starting home, so I swiftly stepped to a drug soda fountain and ordered this stimulant. I received my chocolate in a half hour, garnished with something red, floating on top of the whipped cream. No, it wasn't a cherry; it was a fingernail! I called the waitress; she apologized, showing one hand, minus a false fingernail. My fresh cup of chocolate was replaced so rapidly, that I still wonder if it was a fresh cup. At a southland school, the supervisor was instructing the new cafeteria cooks: "Appearance and cleanliness are important in this type of work. Therefore, you must all wear nets and short, unpolished finn nails. Fingernails harbor germs and we don't want our child eating contaminated food; already have enough germs." Nellie and Katy compared the clipped, unpolished nails the morning. "Cutting my beautiful nail said Nellie, 'took a lot of cage. They were nearly one long, representing two years patient work.'" Dr. Tilman inspected his assistant. She was cute. mouth resembled a valent heart. Her long white finish ended in "spikes" painted "Hot Tip" nail polish. "Amy, we don't allow nails that in a dentist's office," he said "Why do you wear such bral polish?"" "Well, Doctor," answered A "it covers any dirt that m collect there; and I do like color."

He drove to "Lover's Pinnacle" and parked under a pepper tree. He turned off the radio and the headlights. Maxine's red hair was lovely and her blue eyes were wonderful. Then he saw—Maxine had only one eye showing; the other was hidden under the green brim of a hat. His now frightened eyes went upward to the crown centered by a purple hall, resembling the head of a cabbage. Perched on this imitation salad was a black and white polka dot mocking bird. His courage waned. Well, he wouldn't look at her hat, and she did have the smallest hands. Because he still adored her, he squeezed one, and felt a sharp prick like a newly sharpened butcher knife. His adoration became horror when he saw the length and color of her nails. They were purple. Max turned on the radio and drove home with both hands. But the moon was still yellow!
