Frequently now the question arises
as to whether one should tip barber
or a beauty operator for services
rendered. 1t would seem that since
the increase in the price of the vari-
Gus services offered by each, that
tipping might well be eliminated.

In answer to your question,
Would it be best chop the raisins
for the eggless fruit cake?" I chop
both raisins and nuts. This is the
first year in many that missed
baking this cake, but I could not
obtain dates and never thought of
using prunes in place of them.
Thanks for the suggestion.

considerable weight and was
highly nervous after his l8
months combat with the Japs.
RETICENT HERO
His family even to this day
can report little of Capt. Math-
er's experiences. He was reluct-
ant to talk, and the treatment
OF his nervous condition necessi-

combat matters. He had had
several narrow escapes from
death in plane crashes, and at
the time of his visit here last
Christmas, he was entitled to
wear seven medals.
Capt. Mather was born in
Evart, Mich. (near Reed City)

parents when a child. He at
tended South Lake High school

mer of 1886, and also received
a degree in commercial arts
