The coming of Lent brings with it
the demand for substantial tempting
entrees for service on the days of
abstinence. This need is easily and
economically filled by referring to
such a familiar seafood favorite as
canned salmon and becoming better
acquainted with the versatile cult
nary ways of this nourishing, fine
favored food.
Among the scores Of savory main
dishes featuring canned salmon, none
is more popular than the familiar
salmon patty. A de~liciously seasoned
version of this favorite makes its
appearance today under the title of
Southern Salmon Outlets. These cut
let's may be fried to golden brown in
a skillet or in deep fat, as the cook
prefers. They are excellent served

increasingly popular, and not
withstanding the fact that the

reduce the price on these goods,
they are still in demand every
where.
Nine. c.. J. Walkers Glossine.
although more than thirty-five
years on the market, is still the
leader in its field. The reason
for this is because it not only
serves as a scalp oil, but it gives
the hair, that silky sheen and
natural gloss that is the delight
of every woman.

Own Follower Killed
Trotsky, Soviet Says

MOSCOW, Aug. "a (P).-The So
Wet press, giving the Russian people
their first word today of the death
of Leon Trotsky in Mexico City last
Wednesday night, proclaimed it the
"inglorious end" of "a murdered
traitor and international spy"
1t was the first mention of the
attack since a brief dispatch on
Thursday reported that an attempt
had been made on the life of the
exiled Communist leader by one of
his followers.
The Communist party organ
Pravda charged Trotsky with sabo-
tagging the Red Army during the
civil war, plotting to kill Nicolai
Lenin and Joseph Stain in 1918, or
ganizing the Staying of Sergei Kiroff
and plotting to kill Maxim Gorky,
and with having served in the secret
service of Britain, France, Germany
and Japan.
Assassination of Kirof on Decem-
Der l, 1884. by Leonid Nicolaief
brought swift reprisals and execu-
ton of Nicolaieff and 1l6 others
within a month of Kiroff's death.
"Trotsky, having gone to the limits
of human debasement, became en-
tangled in his own net and was
killed by one of his own disciples" :"
said Pravda. Thus a hated man
came to his inglorious end, going to
his grave with the stamp of mur-
derer and international spy on his
forehead"
