CHAPTER XVI

There were others already at his
cabin, when, about mid-morning, he
came into the meadow bowl. He
saw smoke rising from the chimney,
and then with glasses. made out
Sierra Slim in the doorway. Pres
emily Cook appeared. They too stood
with glasses at their eyes. Breck
lifted one arm to them and rode on
at a lope.
"Howdy. pardner," Slim greeted
him.
Cooks first question was, Like
fire fighting. SOM"
Brock swung off and shook hands,
glad to see them. Sierra's face was
as long and melancholy as ever.
After the first welcome he said moth

throw of the pack, though he did
not mention more of the job until
they had turned out the animals.
Then, walking from the corrals, he
said, Hot one for time, wasn't

Breck nodded. He hadn't written

Cook halted, one hand on the knob.
"What the devil! Did they refuse?"
Their excuse was that they had

dogs and guns are all used. The
guns are mostly long-barreled prong

many kinds from which to choose
both hot cereals and cold
cereals.
Hot or Cold Cereal
Some people have the notion
that cereals must be hot In order
to be nourishing. This Is fallacy.
For the nutritive value Of . cereal
b determined by the grain from
which Il II made and by the man
ufacturing precess-not BY wheth-
er Il b bet or cold. It is desirable
to give whole grain cereals Q
prominent place in the diet. This
rule can be followed even when
cold cereals are used. For there
are many nourishing ready-to-eat
cereals made from substantially
the whole grain. These appeal to
the palate because they are SO
crisp and appetizing. And they
supply important minerals, good
amount of vitamin B and some
vitamin G, in addition to energy
values.
A Cold Cereal Analysed
It's interesting to analyze pop
ular ready-to-eat cereal, made
from wheat and matted barley.
We find wide assortment of nu-
trients, including protein, energy
values, phosphorus for the teeth
and bones; iron for building rich
red blood; and vitamin B which
promotes appetite and aids di-
gestion. It has been estimated
that a serving of this cereal
three-fourths of a cup-with one
fourth cup of whole milk, will pro-
vide an adult with per cent Of
his total daily requirement of pro-
tein; lis per cent Of his calcium,
ILL., per cent of his phosphorus;
CTS per cent of his iron, and
total of lbs calories.
Vary the Method of Serving
To help make breakfast inter-
esting, vary the cereal from day
to day. Or offer a choice of sew
eral kinds of packaged ready-to-
eat cereals and allow each menu
Der Of the family to select the one
he prefers. Vary the fruit also.
And occasionally you may COM
bine fresh, canned or stewed fruit
with cereals to make q cereal
sundae." Further variation may
be introduced by using brown
sugar or honey in place Of white
sugar. And on occasion the cere-
ais may be baked into mullins,
waffles or pancakes.
1t is also possible to serve the
eggs in many different forms
poached, baked, scrambled or in
plain or puffy omelet.
II these suggestions are fol-
lowed, It should be q simple mat
ter for homemakers to serve
tempting wholesome breakfasts
that will send their families away
from the table well fitted for the
days activities.

A Model Breakfast

A well balanced breakfast in

an egg or bacon; bread or toast;
and milk, cocoa or cereal bev-
erage for the children, with cof-

or bacon may be omitted occa-

Starting the Day Right

1t Is therefore essential that
every homemaker recognize the
necessity for providing substan-
tial and satisfying breakfast. This
is not difficult to do; nor is it nee
essary to spend a great deal Of
time in its preparation.
When I hear such complaints as
''My family won't eat breakfast"
or They're simply not interested
in food in the morning" I suspect
that the menus are dull and
monotonous; and perhaps MEM
bers of the household have the bad
habit Of sleeping so late that there
Is no time to eat properly.
Both situations are easily rem
edied, and they are closely linked.
For Il the breakfast menus are
made sufficiently attractive, il
won't be difficult to persuade
every member Of the family to
rise q little earlier in order to
enjoy q substantial, unhurried
meal.

A. f. of l.. VS.. C. 1. o.

Hardy perennial among labor
problems is that of bringing about
peace between the A. F. of l.. and
the G. 1. o. So far, no efforts have
been successful. The last one, en-
gineered by President Roosevelt last
spring, petered out when c. I. O..
Chieftain John l.. Lewis halted peace
negotiations to wrangle a close-shop
contract out of the coal operators
and then never returned to the
council table.
At its fifty-ninth annual conven-
ton in Cincinnati, O., the A. F. of
l.. passed the peace buck to the C..
l. o. And as the c. I. o. prepared to
open it's second annual convention
in San Francisco, Lewis refused to
take it.
Some action towards labor peace
was called for by message from
President Roosevelt, calling for
healing of breach in the interest of
national unity" Answer of the
A. F. of L. was to pass a resolution
declaring all such presidential pleas
in the future would be more fit
tingly directed to the c. 1. o." 1t in
structed it's peace negotiating COM
mittee, however, to meet Lewis's
men whenever that organization
will indicate willingness to re-
sumo conference"
That Lewis was not willing was
indicated in his pre-convention re-
port Surprisingly, since the G. I. o.,
has fought changes in the Wagner
Act and attacks on the Labor Board,
he intimahed that his organization
might be forced to turn against that
act because it favored the A. F. of
l.. But he ignored all suggestions
that he make peace with the Fedora
ton.

California Pension Plan
Defeated

.
CALIFORNIA; Ham and Eggs" PEN
sion constitutional amendment was
again defeated at the election in
that state on Nov. 7th. Ire purpose
of the proposed amendment was to
pay thirty dollars every Thursday to
Jobless citizens over fifty years of
age.
Last year the amendment was
placed on the ballot after petit
ton carrying 100000 signatures
Tour times more than legally neces-
sary-had been presented. 1t was
voted down at the general electric,
however.
The $3.50 every Thursday" sup
porters again placed The proposed
amendment on the ballot this year
by petition signed by 100000
Ham and Eggers," but 1t again
went down to defeat.
The plan was officially called the
California State Retirement Life
Payments Act" 1t proposed the pay
ment of 80 81 state warrants each
week to everybody over SO who was
jobless. To keep the warrants in cir
culation, each person who held a
warrant on Thursday would be
required to paste a special 2-cent
stamp on its back. The theory was
that to avid affixing a 2-cent stamp,
the holder would spend the warrants
before the following Thursday,
thereby speeding their turnover, in
creasing the demand for goods and
services beyond all imagination, and
setting factories humming and ex-
banding.
The stamps were to be purchased
from the state with real money. With
space on the back of each warrant
for So such stamps, it would, at
the end of the year, have accumu-
lated $1.O4 worth. Then the state
would redeem this for 81 in cash,
having cents left over for admin
istrative expenses.
The warrants were to be ac-
cepted by the state and municipal
governments in pay m ent of
taxes, except the gasoline tax.
Warrants thus received were to be
used to pay half the salaries of pub
lie employees and half of all gov
ernmental purchases. Transactions in
warrants were to be exempt from all
sales taxes, and incomes received in
warrants were to be exempt from
the state income tax.

NYA Project Approved For
Aberdeen Proving
Ground

An NYA work-project employing
approximately SO youths between
the ages of IS and rs has been ap-
proved for Aberdeen Proving
Ground. A similar project has been
requested for Edgewood Arsenal.
Several Cecil County youths, who
have already made application for
NYA employment, are planning to
club together" and drive to the
Proving Ground, located in Hartford
County near Aberdeen, on days they
are scheduled for work. Although
no funds can be allowed for trans
portation by the National Youth Ad-
ministration or the army post, every
effort will be made to arrange work.
ing time so that youths living in
Cecil and adjoining counties may
travel to and from the project with
the minimum of expense. The NYA
rate of $14 for SO hours of work a
month will more than cover costs.
The tasks to which NYA workers
will be assigned are carefully select
ed to develop good work habits and
knowledge of skills and occupations
Which will be useful in securing
positions in private industry.
None of the jobs require the
handling of munitions, or other
work of strictly military nature.
The boys will be employed as help
ers to machinists, auto mechanics,
carpenters, electrians, plumbing and
sheet metal repair man and survey
ors. Some will do inside work in the
offices and drafting rooms of the
army post. All work will be under
the direction of expert technicians.
According to Cren B. Harrison, in
charge of the Elkton Office of the
State Employment Service, there is a
shortage of skilled labor in Cecil
County. During the past eight
months he has received more re-
quests for workers in the skilled
clsssifications than he has been able
to fill cat least twenty young men
! will be able to find steady employ
ment in Elkton, at wages above the
security level in the trades for
which the Aberdeen project provides
training" he said.
Mr.. Harrison, whose office is To-
Gated at 207 North Street, Elkton,
will be glad to interview any young
person interested in NYA employ
ment opportunities. 1t is also sug-
gested that young people out of
school and out of work, talk with
Miss Emma Hawkins at Elkton
High School.
Application forms, and informal
ton may be secured by writing to

ment, TIA Park Ave. Baltimore,

The reserve fund of the Maryland
Unemployment Compensation Board
is now above $16,0O0,00O. On Octo-
Der /, it was $13,750,000. The big

PNEUMONIA

Laboratory services and other aids
to practicing physicians in the dia-
gnosis and treatment of pneumonia
are outstanding features of the in
tensive campaign for the control of
that disease, that has been started
by the State Department of Health.
Newer methods of treatment of
pneumonias, discovered and tried
out within the last five years, have
resulted in the saving of many lives,
and the more recent discovery of GER
tain drugs, has opened the way for
even greater benefits.
The plan of camaign being fol-

Two Thanksgiving Days
Better Than None

Two Thanksgiving Days will be
better than none, writes Carroll Dull
ancy, in the Baltimore News-Post,
and at least four States will have
two of them. One by Presidential
proclamation and the other by
Gubernational DEGREES.
Our Governor O'Conor decided
some time ago to conform to the
Presidential proclamation. And SO
we will ignore the calendar and
celebrate Thanksgiving Day on No
vember 90, or Thursday of next
week.
The early date set by President
Roosevelt does not match that OF
President Lincoln. He named Sep
TENDER IL, 1853, for Thanksgiving
Day, but he was not handicapped by
football schedules and Christmas
shopping pleas.
Thomas Jefferson, founder OF
what used to be the Democratic
party, was the only President of the
United States to refuse fatty to is
sue a Thanksgiving Day proclama-
ton. The reason he gave was that
he believed the Government was for
hidden by the Constitution to med
die in religious affairs, Doctrines,
disciplines or exercises.
That was one of the reasons why
Jefferson was called an atheist. But
religious prejudice was strong in
those days, and the better explana-
ton is that Jefferson wished to ally
i'll feeling between the various
churches as much as possible. Today
Thanksgiving Day is observed by
every church and creed.
