Don't
Spend
for foods
without
flavor

THE art of making meals attrac-
tive is in serving Aavory foods.
In breakfast oats, see that you get
the Quaker brand. The difference IN
favor Is amazing.
Some 50 years were spent perfect
ine Quaker favor. No other oats
offers it to you. Yet the price you
pay is the same. -,
Quaker milling, too. retains much OF
the bulk" of oats. And that makes
laxatives less often needed. Protein:
carbohydrates and vitamines and
bulk" are thus combined IN making
Quaker Oats an excellently balanced
ration.

nuts such as Aunt Cassie seems to
make. But here is story about
deughnuts from behind the lines dur
ing our World war.
1t seems that the boys used to buy
the doughnuts for trif1ing sum,
made by people who shall be name

be a whole batch that would soak
fat. These would be placed in a pan
and the boys allowed to help them

bought their share of the good ones,
but never passed by those soaked
fat ones either! No list was kept
of the casualties from that generous
pan, so we shall never know the de-
tails.

from the attack of the grip by now,
Aunt Cassie, and thank you for

THE HARBOR OF THE SUM-
(San Diego Harbor)

lodu Dic5O ii'NA
At set of sun / looked across the pay,
A thousand window-panes (and cheap
were they)
With borrowed brilliance flashed the
parting ray,
Impudent mock
Amid that blaze of glory all unearned
The barbor light seemed feeble as it
turned,
But faithfully and steadily it burned
Atop it's rockery
Then night came on The Wlnoo"-
panes were dead.
The harbor light burned on, still flash
ing red.
All through the night the mariners it
led,
Faithfully. royalty.
What care I for the glory of the cheap?
The Master set my light upon this
deep;
Supplied by Him, this steady watch
I'll keep,
Lovingly, loyalty.
A friend of M. BIS sent in our
poem to give us food for thought"
this week. Sometimes we do feel
pretty feeble, don't we? And it is
hard to keep steady and cheerful II
we compare ourselves with others.
But II we knew we were the ngnt
for whole harbor after all-what
glory and what joy!
Dear Aunt Anne and NJ. B.'s:
I do not feel much like writing. as
have had the grip, but l see by the
last paper that Aunt Anne needs some
help, so 1 thought l would cast in my
mite. t~fv-'+
guess there is no danger of
drouth. The rain comes pouring down
SO hard when it does rain!
You spoke about children eating cake
or bread. There is one thing that
have wondered at for some time, and
that is where the harm comes in eating
doughnuts If they are made good and
don't soak fat, and are dipped in hot
water as soon as they are done? / am
sure that they are not very rich or
very sweet, with nowhere near as
much grease in them as there is in
cookies
l am going to send in recipe for
spiced apple jelly, if l am not too late.
Use one ounce of cloves and cinna-
mon to four quarts of apples. Cover
with vinegar and cook until soft.
Then strain, add one pound of sugar TO
a pint of juice, and boil until thick
enough.

Telegraphers
Job Is Not
Mechanical
Operators Make Analysis
and Remember Many
Messages.
DO telegraph operators think?

DO telegraph operators think?
yes" was the answer given by
C. w. Steinhauer, chief operator of
Western Union Telegraph Company,
when asked If his work was purely
mechanical.
"Ninety-eight per cent are think
ing operators. They must use some
mental faculties, get the sense Of the
message and be ready to detect any
mistake and correct it. They can't
get along mechanically, for we soon
find it out" he said.
According to Steinhauer, the oper-
ator's mind must be constantly on
the subject, making mental analy-
sis of 1t. Months after a message is
given many operators can give "a
statement concerning 1T, though
they have taken thousands Of others.
f. w Spooner, Postal Telegraph
chief operator, said st is not all
automatic to the operator, for on
taking a message he can often fig
ure out just what is coming next.
After the message Is taken he never
thinks or 1t again.
According to II. G. Katzenberger,
a Postal Telegraph operator, the
operator can be taking a message
and at the same time be talking to
some one else. To him it is mechani-
cal, but at the same time remains
in his memory.
Your mind is divided" says e. j.
Katzenberger." general traffic chief
at the Postal Telegraph. you think
of two things. Your mind and hand
work together. OF course, anything
comical In a message is noticed, and
misspelled words never pass, by. The
automatic printer, which works by
electrical impulses, is being used
more than Morse operators"

NIGHT LETTER FROM PAULA
PERIER TO KARL WHITNEY
My dear Mr.. Whitney,
4 1 wonder if you will think that ]
am giving up before the battle is
over If 1 ask you to excuse me from
a personal appearance of the Ortho-
pedic Hospital Bazaar tomorrow. l
might as well tell you that talking
to strangers twice a day for the last
week has been the hardest work !
have ever done and as you know we
take that most particular sequence
in "Hot Steel on Monday morning.
feel I owe it to myself to rest to-
day and Sunday, seeing no one, not
even my best and closest friend,
Sally Atherton.
However, went to express to you,
Mr.. Whitney, that / will not mind
the fatigue in any way if 1 have con-
tributed to the cause Of crippled chill
dren in any way.
The saddest thing in my life has
been that my work has blotted ro-
mantle love from my heart and con-
sequently child was not for me.

Eyes, Leslie, what's the matter2'
Nothing particularly. What
made you think so?"
your voice sounds so strange"
Il just called you up, Karl dear,
to ask you il you will excuse me
from coming to the bazaar on Sat
urday. Little Jack is not feeling
well and he wants his mover all
the time. I've neglected him d good
deal Of late and after this excite
nent which seems to hang around
the picture which is to be taken at
the mill on Monday is over, think
I shall hide myself away from
everyone for a while"
"Of course, dear Leslie, don't come
over If you don't want to. But I'm
going to lose all my stars, you know.
Miss Perier just sent me a night
letter asking me to excuse her Also"
II don't blame her, Karl. NShe was
looking very pale the last time saw
her. Paula Perier has all my sym
pathies, for she works hard and leads
very lonely life I'm going
straight to bed now, Karl, and i
shall spend tomorrow and Sunday
in the nursery with the children.
Good-by and thank you"
