Here in the United States we
Jake an orange for breakfast daily,
We use it in orangeade, cakes,
candies and as a sfver of vitamine.j
10 babies and of health to invalids;
we use its blossoms for weddings
and perfumes and it's wood for our
manlcures.
The sight of a pile of oranges
on a fruit stand or in heaping
boxes in ARP stores, making a
vivid spot of color, is now SO COM
mon that we forget that once
oranges were very precious and
Iare.
In the days when the known

there were such things as oranges

full tales of golden apples that
5rew in grove guarded by "a
terrible fire-breathing dragon.
Thus we first hear of the orange,
shrouded in mystery, and a little
later as rare luxury on the
tables of rich mobiles.
AS years went by and civiliza.

were of the nobility. and it has
gone down in history how one of
these orange girls attracted the

A. 4 p. Reaches Bedrock
In Quantity Purchases

When you are amazed by the an.
nouncement that coffee--or any other
food item-takes tremendous
drop IN price. do you sometimes
wonder at the suddenness and the
reason for it?
The answer is simple, A company
AS tremendous as the Great Atlantic
and Pacific Tea Company is sure to
find every short cut and every saw
ing for its customers by b ying in
such quantities as will make these
reductions possible.
On coffee, for instance, this COM
pany maintains its own buying office
right in the heart Of the richest
plantation section in South America
and cont. cts for whole crops of the
choicest grades Of coffee at figures
entirely independent of the American
coffee market And it does the same
thing with other food commodities.
Only an organization as large and
powerful as this can get down to
the bedrock level of prices and pass
on these savings to Americas most
representative women, who take ad-
vantage of these savings daily.
