You needn't be afraid.

One day lady who had been reared
in the careful luxury of the old-fashioned
Virginia home was invited to visit the
kitchen of great Chicago hotel She
wanted to go, but was afraid When
asked why. she replied. I'm afraid III
see something that will forever destroy
my appetite for hotel food" She went.
and found everything delightfully."- clean.
Good housewives consider cleanliness
and purity first of all; that's why Quaker
Oats is their choice among all oatmeals.
In making Quaker Oats the grain is
sifted and resifted, passing through more
than fifty processes of cleaning before Il
is cooked and rolled.
If you took handful of oats and
scrubbed and polished and wiped each
separate grain. it wouldn't then be nearly
as clean as Quaker Oats. No human
hand ever touches single grain OF
Quaker Oats from the field to your
kitchen. The best advice on foods yos,
could have is: Eat Quaker Oats every
morning for breakfast.
This wonderful food is sold IN three
kinds of packages The regular package
at 1Oc. q The large size family package
at Csc, and the large size family package

THE VENGEANCE OF SMOKY ROW

Down in Ottumwa, Junken. the
murderer. has been tried and has teen
sentenced to be hung. It was just
and proper sentence. No mawkish
sentiment should interfere with its
execution. From such vipers society
must be protected.
Some way. however, it seemed to
us that it was Ottumwa, not Junken,
that was ON trial. and not Ottumwa
alone, but our entire system of civili-
cation.
Picture for yourself the scene. The
stricken father and mother whose love-
ly daughter had met death most foul.
the jury with strained, set faces, the
lawyer defending, with the distinct
declaration that he had no sympathy
for his enforced client. the crowd as
eager-eyed for blood as ever was the
Roman populace when down-turned
thumbs decreed the "coup de grace"
to fallen gladiator, and then, the
prisoner at the bar. A miserable,
vile. black wretch. Syphilitic. half
witted. drug-consumed. lust-born.
vicious. malformed. worse than a
complete reversion to savagery could
have made him. And yet Junken
was just as much product of Ottum-
wa as was the beautiful. sweet.voiced.
virgin who was the victim of his lust
and greed. Ottumwa has schools and
churches and literary societies and re-
ligious organizations. Ithas women
clubs and mems clubs and sends money
to missionary fields and does all the
other things which create such per-
feet types as that of the fair-haired
Swedish singer who met her death.
But all the time Ottumwa, a little
Iowa city. has maintained it's hell-hole
of Smoky Row. 1t is safe to say that
for every dime given to the churches OF
Ottumwa dollar has been contributed
to vice. 1t was Ottumwa which sup
ported Stormy Jordan and his flaming
: "Road to He'll" 1t was Ottumwa
business men who signed petition after
: petition asking for remission of his
fines. 1t is Ottumwa which for yeart
has had the reputation of sending
more recruits into the ranks of prosti
tuition than any other city in the state.
1t was Ottumwa where the cit,
, government in the name of the "bus
mess interests fought Billy Sunday
tooth and nail. 1t was Ottumw.
