"Time brings all things."

Courtship

From Port Elizabeth, South Africa, Rev. David Thomas Wright, 30, courted and won Frances Elliott of Kansas City by cabling the verse numbers of Biblical passages. He proposed with Genesis 12:1. She accepted with Ruth 1:16. He confirmed the proposal with Ruth 1:17. Last week Miss Elliott bought her ticket for Port Elizabeth.

Dietitian

In Manhattan's Central Park Zoo, one midnight a policeman spied Anthony Sclafani in shorts and bare legs feeding grapefruit to the yaks. In court Sclafani produced a basket of green vegetables, told the magistrate, "See. All fresh vegetables. The yaks love grapefruit."

Interjected the zoo's veterinarian Harry Ninphius, "A yak can take anything and look as though it's enjoying it."

Sclafani went on: "The female yak is a delightful animal. She waits until the male gets through eating before she will touch food. The expression in her eyes while she watches the male eat is beautiful. . . . All the animals know me and talk to me in their own languages asking for food. They feed these animals hay and grain and meat when what they need and crave is fresh vegetables. Think of all the castor oil they've had to give the elephants because they let them have peanuts and candy and stuff like that. The poor animals are mistreated. They are imprisoned for lifetime in cages that are much too small. My destiny is to help them."
