This is the first commandment, and II
allows Of NO exception. The only thing
that could justify violation OF h would

on both sides OF the sheet goes either To-

II postage 10 enclosed. The United
States government even 10 war times
can't waste paper fast enough to create

 The Becker company handles ev. erything in the way of meat. but the smoked meats receive as much atten- non to keep them sweet and appetiz- ing as dc the fresh meats. All sans ages and smoked meats, with the ex- ception of the canvassed bacon and hams, are kept in the big storage rooms of the company. The tempera- lure here is always less than zero anf if s. V. MeClannahan, the mana, ger, desired, he could do a land office business this summer in renting sleeping space in the big vaults.
 The smoked meat room is also well adapted for the purposes to which 1t is put. The hams and bacon are hung on racks, and stream of cool air IS constantly forced through to keep the meats from moulding. The proper care of meats is very expensive thing, but the Becker company be- lieVes in doing it right, knowing that the trade appreciates quality, and that quality will always tell.
