Sarah and Will went to church that morn

he'd been fool, acting the way he had, and
he hoped it would be an object lesson for
other parents who might find themselves

He SENT his boy. Tommy, marked copy
of that issue - the first word Tommy had
had from him in weeks - and couple OF
nights later the telephone rang in the house

1t was Tommy, of course, phoning to say
that he and Ruth, his wife, were coming

That was long telephone call. First
Will talked to his boy, then he talked to

THERE'S NOTHING ARTIFICIAL about the
flavor of Allsweet Margarine! You see,
Allsweet is a product of Americas
own farms clear bland food oils
blended, by an exclusive process, with
all the cultured pasteurized skim milk
they can properly absorb. The flavor
of Allsweet Margarine-so natural,
so delicate-is making it first-choice
with millions of women.

FINE NUTRITION! Swift fortifes every
pound of Allsweet with Vitamin A.
Winter as well as summer, it is reli-
able source of this nutritional essen
tial. And it's splendid source of food
energy. Because 80 many women are
switching to Allsweet, it often sells
out almost as fast as dealers get it.
But always ask for Allsweet first.

confronted today with historic
opportunity. It lies within your
power to put an end to this de-
mon from the south, who would
impose upon US. their brothers,
their ideas of life and brother
hood. We can destroy forever
this misery Of segregation and
degradation which for the past
80 years has made q mockery OF
