That's why millions start
their days in this way

- .
ITO feel right through the morn.
i ing, you must have well-bal-
aEced, complete food at breakfast.
At most other meals-that Isl at
luncheon and at dinner-you us1ally
get that kind of food.
But at breakfast the great dietary
mistake is most often made-a hur-
ried meal, often badly chosen.
Thus Quaker Oats, containing

vitamines and the bulk" that makes
laxatives seldom needed. is the die

It is food that Stands by" you

should start every breakfast in your

Don't deny yourself the natural
stimulation this rich food offers.

AT WHITE PINE
CAMP VI MONDAY
(By Dispatch A. P. wire)

PAUL SMITHS, N ", Aug. 9.-Pres-
ident Coolidge returned to White Pine
camp late today from Vermont to face
considerable volume of government
business that had accumulated at the
executive offices during his five days
absence, and a program of conferences
with governmental officials that will
occupy him this week.
Although number of departmental
and routine questions awaited his at
tention, it was said no important mat
ters had been received and that no en-
gagements were on his program for to-
morrow, except his usual Tuesday
meeting with newspaper correspon-
dents.
Brigadier General Lord, directorof
the budget, however, will come here
Wednesday to discuss the preliminary
budget estimates which all govern
ment departments and bureaus must
submit to the budget office by August

the department of commerce will be a
guest at White Pine camp.

idge, early today left Plymouth, VT,
where he had been at his boyhood
home since last Wednesday and soon
after o'clock departed from Ludlow,

Mrs. Rugg, and Mr.. and Mrs. Frank w.

lican, Kentucky a strong administra-
tion supporter, who has been at PAU

In leaving Plymouth, Coolidge part
ed from old friends and scenes with
manifest regrets. The visit had given
him opportunity to renew old ties and
to attend number of matters about
the Coolidge farm. 1t also had enapleo
him and Mrs. Coolidge to visit every
day the grave of their young son, Cal
