Although Hoover ' was present no objections were made j to the many good things that were heaped on the table. Of course, no cake was served, but that was prob-' ably on account of the scarcity of 1 sugar. Had Mrs. Thompson been given more time, she might have thought of something more In the market to serve to the guests, but they, themselves, were unable to i think of anything that was missing. ! We hope St. Peter will not get short of cooks and call tor Mrs. 1 Thompson too soon. I SIMM I NOTICE FOR PUBLICATION Department of the Interior. U. 8. Lad Of fire l The Dalies, Orefun.

FRANK WOODCOCK. ttie Begisur ; An International Service Built on Tiny Profits Per Pound Some Industries have been able to get in step with war demands more quickly than others. In many cases mighty plants have sprung up but at a prodigious cost The packing industry was able to adapt itself to unheard of demands more quickly, perhaps, than any other industry. And this was because the vast equipment of packing plants, refrigerator cars, branch houses, etc, had been gradually developed to its present state of efficiency, so that in the crucial hour it became a mighty international system for war service. And how had this development taken place? Not by making vast inroads into the capi tal wealth of the country, but largely by using, from year to year, a portion of the profits, to provide for expansion. Swift & Company's profits have always been so tiny, compared with sales, that they have had practic ally no effect on the price of meat (amounting to only a fraction of a cent per pound). And yet the owners of the business have been content with reasonable returns on their capital, and have been able, year after year, to put part of the profits back into the business to provide for its expansion. These fractions of tiny profits have been repaid to to the public many fold in the form of better service, and better and cheaper meat, and made it possible for Swift & Company to meet, undaunted, the sudden cry for meat for overseas. Could any other method of financing a vital industry involve less hardship to the people of the country? Could there be a better instance of true "profit-sharing" than this return in added usefulness and in national preparedness ? Swift & Company, U. S. A.
