J , r ; The best food for those who work with hand or brain is never high priced. j i ) * The best example of this is found ' in Quaker Oats. It stands . at th i , top among foods that supply nourishment and vigor ; without taxing 'the ' diges tion , and yet it is the least expensive . food one can eat. This _ great food value and low ; cost make it an ideal food for familieswho ; want to get the greatest good . from . what they eat. " 'Laborers , factory or farm hands , fed plentifully on Quaker pats will , work better and with less fatigue than if fed on almost any other kind of food. All of these facts were : proved , and very interesting information . about human foods were gathered by .Pro fessor Fisher of Yale University in 1908. In addition to the regular pack. , age Quaker Oat , is ' packed in large sized family packages either with ' or I without china dishes. 8 w . . ' , _ ' " . " ' 1 " _ . . . . . . . . . . . .

Ghosts con- ducted them into the house where" they were welcomed by a witch. I The room was lighted by Jack 0' , . .Lanterns and then numbers were I given out , and , as they were call- ed , each person went outside. A ghost led them around to a small cellar window. Through this they all had to crawl. They went down into a spookey cellar. Here were skeletons in the corners which made your blood run cold and your hearts jump into r your mouth as bats greeted you now I and then. You wondered what was coming next , -but you had not long to wait as a ghost soon took you up a ladder and onto the gar- ret roof. Then , crawling into the window again- frighten you were . - : ! ed by more ghosts and bats. How thankful you were when you at last reached the ground and were on your way to the gypsy tent to have your fortune told. After everyone had gone through all the daring feats they were very thankful when the refreshments were served. The Freshmen did i I themselves justice in this supper I and their manner of serving.
