ORIGINAL POETRY.


We thank Thee, Lord, upon this blessed day
That we, in quietude and without fear,
May to our sanctuary wend our way
And worship there and know that friends
are near.
Or by our own treside in sweet content
We sit in blessed peace within its glow,
Our thoughts in solemn meditation bent,
Review those early days of long ago
When dangers great and savage warriors boC
Lurked all along our Puritan fathers way
Our eyes both Peace and Plenty do behold
We thank Thee, Lord, for this
Thanksgiving Day.

Why does Great Britain buy
Its oatmeal Of US?

Certainly it seems like carrying
Goals to Newcastle to speak Of export
ing oatmeal to Scotland and yet, every
year the Quaker Oats Company sends
hundreds of thousands Of cases Of
Quaker Scotch Oats to Great Britain
and Europe.
The reason IS simple; while the
English and Scotch have for centuries
eaten oatmeal in quantities and with a
regularity that has made them the
most rugged physically, and active
mentally Of all people, the American
has been eating oatmeal and trying all
the time to improve the methods Of
manufacture 80 that he might get that
desirable foreign trade.
How well he has succeeded would
be seen at glance at the export re-
ports on Quaker Scotch Oats. This
brand is without rival; is packed in
regular packages. and in hermetically
sealed tins for hot climates. s.
