Bolster Your Breakfasts

Right way to start war-busy day
is to tamp yourself down with a
workmanlike meal. Have a stout
breakfast, with plenty of heft, with
enough of the right kinds of foods
to see you through one-third of the
day without fag, and with early
morning taste and eye appeal to
tempt your appetite.
Such dishes are the sort we give
you here: Hominy Pudding made Of
grits, sugar, fragrant spice, good
milk, and egg for thickener. Fine
flavor attribute in this dish comes
from raisins - " cupful of the
plump, delicious seedless sort. Makes
an old-fashioned dish rich with
new fashioned nutrients. Th e n
there's Raisin Coffee Ring that you
can mix, bake, and have ready to
eat in 40 minutes flat. If that's more
time than you can spare before
breakfast, make it the day before
and pop into the oven for re-heating
just at mealtime.
Or, try a platter of Breakfast
Wheat Raisin Mush, served with
plenty of sizzling sausage. The mush
has a kind of roasted-toasted taste
that's wonderfully satisfying to your
early morning palate. And the rails
ins add just enough surprise element
to please. For they are soft and
succulent to chew on, their flavor is
sweet and fruity, and they have a
graceful fragrance that enhances
other foods.
Raisins do double duty in all the
dishes given here:

1 cup breakfast wheat

pretty close checking to keep their
addresses up to date. Both of your
letters, written during the month
of November, were received and
acted upon promptly, but Dribbles
is just getting around to thanking
you for the friendly service rend-
cred. Keep up your good work
throughout the year 1945 and you

To Mrs. Raymond w. Thompson,
Smyrna, Delaware. Your last list
of changes of address included a
total of six names, all of which
were published under the date of
December 7th, 1914. Perhaps it
may seem a bit unfair to have you
look after so many of our service
men from this area, nevertheless
you have been doing mighty good
job of it and I hope you will con-
tinue. To be quite frank with you,
some of the names you have taken
an interest in would not have been
recorded properly if you had not
stepped in and furnished the in
formation. Already your brother
"Bill" has written in, showing an
interest in the column. 1t is to be
hoped that your uncle, brother-in-
law and cousins will do likewise
during the present year. However,
should anything interfere and pre-
vent these addresses coming
through on time, Dribbles hopes
that you will act promptly and for

you comb the ends and turn them

I was very happy to note in a
recent issue of The Smyrna Times
which 1 received, that Jack had
written in once again.

is not only a very good cook, but
he is also becoming quite a poet.
Jack has, from time to time, been
writing verses to me. The latest
one he wrote was on November 7th
for my birthday which occurs on
December 9Th. And here It is:
I know the day is December 9Th my

IS Herbert Best, Whose mover, IOung On,
is a Book-of-the- Month Club selection for
November.
"Young I'm" is story of life in upper
New York State, about century and
half ago. 1t begins dramatically when Old
Man Post drives his oxen back to his home,
to find that his cabin has burned down
and that his wife has perished in the flames.
Old Man Post has never been much of one
for settling down. When this happens, he
goes off to the North woods, leaving his
three children to fend for themselves. The
rest of the book tells how they made
out.

for the change of address of your

We note that Herman's last move
was to Camp Gordon, Georgia.

have since been wondering if any
change has occurred after that
date. The way our Boys have been

To Mrs. Louisa X. Reichelt,

recent kindness your son, Robert
Louis Heichelt's name was entered
in Dribbles' honor roll under the
date of November 18th, 1914.
Now that Robert has finished his
Boot" training, no doubt he has
had both change of rating, and
change of address. We would ap-
preciate it if you would send in
your sons correct address, and
make it a point to continue this
service during Roberts term of
duty with the u. S. Navy. 1t would
also be nice to have this young
sailor drop us a line and tell his
friends how he is making out in his
new, but most honorable occupa-
ton.

Another thing that makes us
both very happy is that we both

Well, this is a surprise to learn
that your husband is turning out
to be a sailor poet. 1t must have
been those South Pacific moonlight
nights that have inspired the young
man. Or could it be another case
of "absence making the heart grow
fonder?" In either case, Jack is
making out quite well, and 1 know
it pleases you no end. The first
thing you know, your husband will
be putting the rhythmetic beat of
the mixing spoon to music. What
would happen after that would be
for fate to decide. However, this
thing called fate is usually kind to
all those in love, and you have no
reason to fear that an exception
will be made in your case. Inspir-
ed people do many incredible things
when they put on the pressure.
You might write to Jack and urge
that he explore the possibilities of
rhythmetical rhythm. Could be,
you know.
Dribbles is pleased to learn that
both you and Jack have accepted
the Christian faith, hoping to find
salvation thereby. The very fact
that you have seriously entered
into the subject of theology will
open up many avenues of thought
to both of you. Let us hope that
you will continue on in the course
you have chosen with minds alert,
giving full consideration to the
fundamentals of the Christian
faith. Being a real Christian, in
the true sense of the word, is a
full time job, and it is remarkable
the good you can accomplish
throughout your lives if you carry
on, sincere in your purpose. Here's
wishing you and Jack the very best
that the future can provide.

Laundry Fined For Failing
To Provide Chairs

Washington, d. c. 0LNS).-Frank
3. Leung, owner of the Associated
Laundry, Washington, was fined S25
in Municipal Court after pleading
guilty to violating the seats law.
According to the District Minimum
Wage and Industrial Safety Board,
this is one of the first prosecutions
in the almost so years since the law
was approved March 2, 1895. The law
requires all persons employing female
help in the District of Columbia to
provide chairs or stools for them, and
to invoke no regulations against the
female employees taking advantage
Of these facilities.
Leung was fined S125 recently for
violations of the female S-hour day
and minimum wage law.

NUTRITION AND LABOR
OUR GOALS FOR THE FUTURE

America even if old habits of thought
or man-made formulae have to be
considerably modified. Science en-
ables us to make the tools with which
we produce more than enough of the
food we need. Our land is rich and
ample; our farmer willing and skill
full. Man-made economic obstacles
can be overcome, though not merely
by hopes and high phrases. They re-
quire cooperative action by all groups,
courage and vision.
But in the modern world it is i'm
possible for the United States to
exist as a wellfed, prosperous, but
isolated nation, while other nations
are afflicted with malnutition and
disease. Similarly, no nation could
survive with a small aristocracy liv-
ing in luxury while the bulk of the
people suffered penury and privation.
There must be, and after this war
there will be, combined action among
the democratic, peace-loving nations
for security, peace, and progress. The
Atlantic Charter proclaims just that
and the people of America, Great
Britain, Russia, China, France and
the other allied nations must dedicate
themselves to the speedy realization
of these goals.

Labor Surplus In

Detroit QLNS)-Declaring Detroit
and other big Michigan war produc-
tion centers have labor surplus
rather than shortage, management
and union spokesmen here have asked
Congress TO reject national service
legislation.
John l.. Lovett, general manager Of
the Michigan Manufacturers Associ-
alton, in a letter 10 Michigan mem
bers Of Congress, said that the De
troit areas factories could handle 20
per cent more war contracts than
they now have.
"We Of management" he added,
believe that free labor will produce
more than slave labor and we are op-
posed to any compulsion on manpower
in manufacturing plants"
Sixty thousand men and women are

more than $4,000 persons are draw
ing unemployment compensation, Low

Der of the War Manpower Commis-

gressional delegation that upward Of

Injustice Still Exists
Green, i'm his statement to the JIG,
stated:
"A considerable amount Of discrimi-
nation, prejudice, and injustice still
exists in our beloved land despite con-
stitutiona amendments, laws, and
regulations, designed to wipe them
out. The blunt truth is that the
equality Of economic, political and
educational opportunity is still un-
justly withheld from large sections Of
our population.
"The stern situation we must face
is that widespread ignorance and
blind prejudice must be overcome be-
fore these injustices can be righted.
There is only one effective weapon
with which ignorance and prejudice
can be combaced and finally uprooted
education.

whose work | have been personally
acquainted since its very inception,

A concrete program for the practi-
cal achievement of freedom from
want is an urgent responsibility of
all citizens, but most particularly OF
labor organizations. 1t is the common
man, the worker, who knows the
threat of hunger also the need for
security in food for himself and for
his family. This threat has been with
man for so many thousand years that
many feel it is mans inescapable fate
which no hopes or schemes of ideal
istic visionaries can change. Had such
arguments been taken seriously in the
part there would have been no ad-
vance of any kind either in science
or progressive legislation.
But people are not as a rule de-
luded by kibitzers of social progress.
They seek to change and improve the
environment they live in, both their
social as we'll as their material
worlds. Experience aids us greatly in
correcting mistakes of the past and in
Judging the usefulness of proposals
for future action.
The events of the last twenty years
in America have demonstrated that
whenever there is unemployment and
hunger in the cities, there is low in
come and poverty on the farm. There
were farm surpluses in the last de-
preston of the early thirties. These
meant underconsumption which brings
ruin to the farm
On the other hand, the. experience
of recent years shows that for the
health of our people more nutritious
foods needs to be consumed widely
and that increased consumption brings
prosperity to the farm. The farmer
and the worker have common in
terest in maintaining high food pro-
duction and high, nutritionally ade-
quate food consumption. High income
on the farm means in turn buying
power. The farmer needs what indus
try and labor produce and thus the
wheel of prosperity keeps turning.
These goals must be achieved in
