Whale Meat Tastes as Good as Beet

whaie medC IaSteS as SOO0 as 6Sefs
 Several kinds of new sea food are being put on the market says the November Wo4nan's Home Companion The writer of the article on sea food says; be, but there are still some one thous- and five hundred of them killed each year on the Pacific Coast. In the body of each of these whales there is ten thousand pounds of first class meat. The Japanese whalers retrieve this meat and find ready market for it at home. The American whaler throws it away.
 Tt is a fact not currently appreci- ated that the whale is not a fish, It's flesh has no f1shy taste whatever. The mammal which suckles it's young. It's flesh is therefore comparable with that of other mammals such as the COW; it is steak.
 "An enterprising whaler last season brought some whale meat into Seattle and placed it in the butcher shops and had it served at the hotels. It sold for ten cents a pound, and the hotels served steaks for forty cents that would have cost a dollar-fifty had they been beef. Guests ate of the whale meat and pronounced it as good as beef Last year, also. the same ex-, pertinent was tried at Long, Beach, California, and the whale meat sold readily in the butcher shops and was liked by consumers. So it fE earnest ly urged, in these trying times, that and hotels use the steak of these 1,500 whales, which is equal in nutritire value to the most of 10Sa- coo prime pOrkers."

When the time comes to retrench, when men have to be laid off, if you have made yourself really useful and valuable you will probably not be dropped: you are more likely to be given more important work to do, because your employers will know you will do : it right, that they can trust you and , depend upon you. ,... .r -s.' .
