DEAR. FOLKS:


r AM a great believer in
the principle of proving
= ones statements. There
are some people, you know,
who question the value of
a $50 gold piece. There
fore, they seek some ex-
pert to test its value.
l have been telling you
about the Wilson & Co.
Certified Ham and Bacon
and | have not the
slightest doubt that many
of you have already made
a satisfactory test of their
excellent q%uality-but I
thought [ would try an ex-
pertinent the other even
/ ing.
Il bought a Wilson Certi-
fled Ham and had it
cooked for dinner. I in
vited several friends to
take dinner with me. 7
did not tell them that they
were being served with a
Wilson Certified Ham. T
did not ask them how they
liked it. | knew it had been
cooked just right and I
think | know how to slice
ham as well as anybody. T
waited to hear expressions
of opinion from my guests.
One-a young lady who is
a secretary to the National
Honor Guard of the Saliva
ton Army, started the ball
rolling by remarking to
my daughter: "Why,
Eleanor, where did YOU
buy this ham? 1t is the
most delicious I ever ate"
Then another guest, who is
la Y. M. c, A. secretary,
spoke up and said: isn't
TINS ham wonderful? Why
lit melts in your mouth.
and what a delightful fla
vor it has"
And so it went, all around
the table. Everybody expressed
a very favorable opinion as to
the quality and taste Of the
ham.
You know a Wilson & CO. Ger
titled Ham is big enough to
serve many people. There were
several people as guests at nv
table-a couple of them being
golfers, with very keen appe-
tites-yet there was enough
ham left to serve a couple of
luncheons to several people.
When ! told my guests finally
that they had been served with
a Wilson & Co. Certified Ham,
they said to me: 1--WE don't
blame you for being so cnthusi-
astic about the quality of the
foods prepared by that firm.
They certainly make good all
of your claims about them"
Then they asked me a lot of
questions about my experience
with the workers in the Wilson
& Co. organization, which I
answered, but they we're es-
pecially interested in a story 1
told them about the Good Fell
lowship Clubs which have been
organized in the Wilson & Co.
plants.
IA recent experience with the
Fellowship Club members in
the New York plant gave me
the cue to tell them how won
derful the workers are and how
they pull together for their own
betterment, as we'll as for the
bettermcnt of the business.

Club was just getting under

for having harbored Korean lead
ers, and whose case heard in the
appeal court of Pyeng Yang.
Answering questions put to him
by the Judge, Mr.. Mowry denied
knowledge of, or participation in,
the agitation scheme planned by
students of Sungsil University. He
admitted that he gave shelter at his
house to vi Posik and four other
Koreans but denied that he so pro-
tected them because of knowing
that they were wanted by the police
in connection with the agitation. He
had admitted them simply out of
compliance with their request as
they were his pupils or employees.
Public Procurator Mitsui argued
that the point of the present case
was whether or not the defendant
was aware that the Koreans he gave
shelter to were offenders liable to
legal punishment heavier than a
fine. He declared that the Rev.
Mr.. Mowry's denial was scarcely
to be accepted and that the judg-
ment pronounced by the court of
first instance should be upheld.
