OBITUARY..

Helen May Croker, granddaugh-
ter of Mrs. Reuben Osgood, died
January Is, in southern California,
where she and her grandmother had
been living the past eighteen months.
Her death came as great shock to
her eastern friends, who hoped the

fetal to her.
Miss Croker was born April 20,
1900, and most of her life had been
spent in Surry, where she had grown
from childhood. Her school days
were divided between Surry and Bos-
ton, where she lived while attending
high school. AS a member of the
Surry grange, she took an active part
in it's social and business life, and
from this organization will be greatly
missed.
Sympathy is extended to Mrs. Os-
good, and to Helen's tow uncles, Cal
win Osgood and J. A. WOlvin.

IF YOU feel tired, hungry, "hdg-

jump to the conclusion of poor health.
Thousands have unenergetic mornings
because they start the day with
wrong breakfasts.
To feel right, you must have we'll
balanced, complete breakfast ration.
At most other meals-lunch and din
ner-you get it. But breakfast is a
hurried meal, often badly chosen.
