Do you eat enough of this

The great benefit in health and strength
that always is enjoyed by regular eaters
of good oatmeal is known the world
over. Every year there are more and
more eaters of Quaker Oats, which is
recognized in this country and in Europe
as the one perfect oatmeal.
All the experiments of the govern
ment food experts and the athletic
trainers of Yale University prove that
cereal eaters are the strongest and
healthiest, and Quaker Oats stands at
the head of the list Of cereal foods. 1t is
not only the best food, but it's the cheap
est food on earth. Eat it daily for
breakfast.
For city trade Quaker Oats is packed
in the regular size packages at l0c, but
for those who are not conveniently near
the store for daily shopping the large
size family package at 25c is just the
thing.

The beginning of the series of func-

commencement exercises of the Whit
ing high school win begin tomorrow
evening when class day exercises will
be held in the high school auditorium
al p. m. From this event there will
be something every night until June
18th, when the alumni banquet will
eliminate the series. The class this
year consists of twelve young people,
and it is safe to say no preceding
class has ever been more progressive
or more instrumental in putting the high
school on the high basis upon which it
now stands.
The members are very talented. and,
although 1t is a great credit to send
out such graduates, their loss will be
felt keenly. for they have done so
much in the way of making our high
school a social factor, thereby en-
couraging the citizens to visit the
schools and also making the curricu-
lum pleasant one. and in this way
boys and girls are encouraged with
their work, and instead of leaving high
school after one or two years, they de-
sire to complete their course. Among
the graduates are Walter Smith and
Benjamin Gordon the two popular ora
tors who have figured in so many ora
torical contests. Smith having won the
county oratorical this year for Whit
ing. There is also Miss Anna Nav Di-
neen, who is getting an enviable repu-
tation as pianist of great ability
