Breakfast Not the Meal

There are not as many breakfast
tables in Rock Island as there used to
be in the old days when the family
met together for social conversation
and exchange of experiences and
ideas. In pious families in the good
old days the breakfast was generally
prefaced by family prayers, but fam
lily. prayers like many of the old Gus
toms is not as generally observed
as it used to be. Social and business
life have changed nightly in the last
quarter of a century and the family
breakfast is one of the customs that
have given way to the demands of
modern life. In fact there are peo-
pie nowadays who do not eat break
fast at all.

adherents and while it may not come
to be a permanent custom there is lit
