there IS something in a name.
You'll realize this once you've
tried Frye’s “Delicious” Brand
Hams and Bacon. The delight
fully mild and delicate flavor
will prove a revelation. Ham as
sweet, tender and juicy as fresh
young ham roast. Bacon—crisp
slices of wholesome delieiousness
that almost melt in the mouth.
One trial will convince you that
Frye’s “Delicious” Brand is
Hot biscuits, cakes,
pies—recipes for good
things of all kinds are
in Frye’s ‘‘Meat
Guide.” You can use
one every day. Bacon
cooked in deep fat is
just a little more delic
ious than fried or
broiled the usual way.

No matter what the town, nor
where, community spirit wanes as
the power of money lenders in
crease. There is no such word as
democracy in the lexicon of a
financial oligarchy. When there is
a twelve percent string to your
dollar, there is one hundred
pounds of shackle to your pro
gress. The yard stick of dollarism
is as short of inches as a fathom
is shy of a rod in feet.
A ditch digger may not be ac
ceptable at a bankers’ spread, but
lie's very much in demand in the
building of a town. Commerce is
one of the direct results of labor,
but there are few laborers as
members of the chambers of
Commerce. The curse of in
terest is that you are paying it
whether or not a borrower. The
credit system is getting too heavy.
It is now a burden to every man,
woman and child. Its benefits are
snowed under by the grief it
causes. It increases the price of
every thing you eat and wear, and
the cash buyer pays for the de
chase on time.
Waiting a long time for a
claimant, and not even the origin
al owner showing up, the Soviet
Government has ordered the form

to the bone yard to be broken up.
Probably, on the River Styx,-she’d
be placed in commission again.
Secretary Mellon is in opposi
tion to a tariff on farm products
because, as he sees it, it would
iucrease the cost of living. But
he favors high protective tariff for
manufacturers and Mr. Mellon is a
manufacturer as well as a govern
ment official. Looks like some
selfishness and a streak of hypo
crisy, what?

The Detroit postoffice during the

It was directly asserted that the

in the handwriting of K. G. Or

are tempted to get in and learn
a step or two.
