COUPLE CORVERT HOBBY
INTO PROFITABLE DEAL
By HAL BOYLE
CAPE MAY, N. J. — (AP) —
Why work for a living if you car
m-ke a living playing?
The pleasure of finding thes
could turn a hobby into a busines:
has been a real adventure in con
tontment for Ken and Marge
Ewer,
They are the happy proprietors
of the Cane May Country Store, a
uiigue paradise for tinkerers and
p2ople who like to buy things like
old coffee grinders, cuspidors and
beaver hats, It is also a thriving
arts and handicrafts center,
Four years ago Ewer was a
suaeessful, well-paid executive of
a Midwest metals firm, But he
bad insomnia, wasn’'t really having
eny fun, and fretted over whether
he was saving enocugh money to
pay for the ulcers he felt he was
geting.
One night he and his wile talked
it over and decided their way of
life wasn’t vorth the waorry.
Live A Little
“I thought before I started pay
ine out everything to the doctors
we might as well do a-little real
Llving.” Ken said. .
So he ouit his job and came to
this resort center. He and his wife
cshared an interest in entiques and
handicraft. Thevy decided to make
thair hobby their career.
“I had always besn a tinkerer.”
szif Ken, “So I thought I'd set
un a tinkerers’ headouarters where
we could revive some of the old
crafls that have been dying out.”
They bought an old stable and
slagped a coat of réd paint on it.
Tey began stocking the stable
vrith thousands of antiques from
the American past, from old shoe
huftoners to old horse collars (they
rrake wonderful modern pitture
fr mes). For S3OO they turned the |
lo*t into a warm homey apdrtment,
Neighbors interested in handi-‘
craft began dropping. in on the
couple asking' if they couldn't be
eny help. Now Ewers have a
staff of 15 “colonial craftsmen”
v:ho each year turn out thousands
¢! items like “hand-carved snipe*
¢ ~coys, butter paddles, driftwood |
pcture frames and decorative |
wooden flour scoops.
“Among these craftsmen have
been a truck driver, an in'surancei
man, three housewiveg, and an 83-
year-oold retired railroad engine
er,” Ken said. “Right now a retired
bonker is helping 1 2 make picture
frames.
He's good, too.”
Part-Time Workers
Most of the craftsmen are part
tme workers whose main object is
enjoyment. But the country store’s
boast s, “if we don’t have it in
stock or can't find it—we’ll make
of for you ourselves.” £ x
The Ewers now work about 14
hours a day at their play, and love
it, because there is always some-.
thing new to do—and they are
working for themselves.
“I'm working now on develop
ing pastel-colored scented ladies’
shoe polish.” Ken said. “Women

iIT'S THE TRUTH
HERE'S THE PROOF
that SUPER-Enriched bread gives you more body-building
nourishment than ordinary enriched bread. Compare the vi
tamin and mineral content printed on any bread wrapper with
that printed on the SUPER-Enriched wrapper.
“One-half pound of bread supplies you with at least the
following amounts or percentages of your minimum daily re
quirements for these essential food substances:”
BENSON'S SUPER-Enriched Bread Other Breads
Vitamin B-1 70% 55%
Vitamin B-2 25% 17%2%
Niacin 6.5 mgs. 5 mgs.
Iron 55% 40 %
Vitamin D 35% No Claim
Calcium 35% No Claim
EVERYONE NEEDS...
a better-balanced diet to give them extra energy and body
building nourishment. You'll get larger amounts of essential
Vitamins and Minerals in SUPER-Enriched bread than in any
other loaf.
YOU'LL £FF . ..
more Vitamin D —the sunshine vitamin that helps build
strong bones and good teeth . . . more Calcium —the essen
tial mineral that each of us needs to maintain good health . . .
more Vitamin B-1, Vitamin B-2, Niacin and Iron, all of which
are essential in a balanced diet.
YOU'LL AGREE...
SUPER-Enriched bread is a fresher, better-tasting, and more
satisfying loaf than any other bread. Why take less than the
best when . it's so easy to get SUPER-Enriched bread . . . at
no extra cost to you.
BENSON'S BAKERY
is no real reason why shoe polish
has to smell the way it does.”
Here is his own cheerful sum
mary of his new life:
“From SIO,OOO a year to $lO a
}week-—and happiness.”
But the way business is booming
the Ewers seem to be playing their
, way right back up into the $lO,-
{OOO bracket they gave up four
vears ago.

POTATO SHORTAGE

OTTAWA.—(AP)—An unusual
potato shortage in Canada has
pushed prices- three times higher
than a year ago, and placed new
wealth in the hands of the suc

It has also reversed a ftradi

whichs usually sells most of her
surplus potatoes to the United
States, is leaning more and more
on American supplies to fill the
gap in her needs.
The irony is that in this potato
crop year which started last July,
