MOTOR TRUCK CO.'S
 MASCOT. DISAPPEARS

OYSTERS RETURN TO AID IN FIGHT.
 ON LIVING COST
Luscious Bivalve, of High Food Value, Shows No
 Increase In Price.

New York, Sept. 1.-"R" is again in the names of the months, so that the oyster season is open. House wives who are wise will greet the succulent bivalve as life-saver, or at least as great money saver, in these times when the prices of al- most all edibles are soaring sky ward
 Oysters are about the only food the price of which has not doubled or tripled during the past few years. Other necessities have been steadily soaring in cost for some years, and now the war has put another burden on the back of the consumer. But the oyster is expected to sell this winter for about the same price at which it has been sold for many years. There may be tremendous increase in the cost of fancy" oysters listed by name on menus and consumed by the lux uriOus few, but the common, every day oyster is expected to be about as cheap as ever.
 The food value of the oyster is ex- ceptionally high. It is digestible, nutritious and wholesome, almost as self sufficient as milk, and possesses a higher proportion of 'glycogen than 1 any other food. Its value is much increased by cooking, the addition O1 the necessary starches and fats make
 it perfectly balanced food. '>

The nation is not a third person-the nation is ourselves. The nations obligations are our obliga- tions, and each of us should work a little harder than he has ever worked before and produce little more than he has ever produced before, in or der to discharge his share of the obli- gation which the nation has assum- ed"
