(Special) Breakfast in Ladd Canyon has be come quite the fashion lately with many staying at the Hot Lake Sana torium. Most mornings at about 5 o'clock one or two automobiles will be packed with people nml provisions and away they go for Ladd Canyon. The atmosphere in the valley is wond erfully invigorating at this time in the morning and after a sharp spin of half an hour or so. by the time the old Linebarger perk is reached the early birds are ready to tackle any thing. A small fire is quickly built far away from any underbrush, iron grates fixed over it, and many will ing hands have soon unpacked coffee pot, skillets, cups and saucers, etc. Ham and eggs are soon cooking with a "sizzle" that is music to the ear. By the time the cry of "coffee ready to boil over" is heard a healthy ap petite has been acquired and within sound of the bnbbling creek, the piles of food disappear with prodigious ra pidity. What matter if the dishes are tin and the coffee is drunk out of a tin cup. nothing ever tasted quite so good before; no, not even in the San atorium grill room. It's just great; and as long as the weather permits, ench morning will Ladd Canyon's cool, natural breakfast room be the early morning meccn of many Hot Lake habitues.

Cinderella Exposed. (By United Press) London, July 25 (By Mail) That Veil-known stuff about the smallness of Cinderella's feet may be bunk af ter all. Allan MacDonald has just found an ancient slipper believed to have been a girl's in a peet hog. He thinks it was lost by a fair maiden of long ago who threw a shoe while 'running to escape the attentions of I an ardent princeling. The slipper was a dainty little thing for those days weighing about a pound- and-a-half and generally re sembling Charlie Chaplin s twinkling trilbies. ticn. He said that there was plenty of wood in the mountains and that there was no necessity for people to go cold in winter if they would only take pains to lay intheir supply be fore the roads became bad in the win ter.

One of the earliest of American life insurance com panies, the National has main tained a progressive leader ship by originating some of the most important insurance reforms of the last half cen tury. . . . ; KAISER IN BLUEBEARD CLASS (By United Press) London July 25 (By Mail) Amer ican soldiers, visiting the famous wax- warks of Madam Tussaud, requested that the Kaiser's image be removed from the royal gnllery to the Chamber of Horrors. The owners were willing but said they didn't make the change because the figures of Herod, Bluebeard and Jesse Pomoroy would object For example The idea of allowing cash surrender values (a practice that did general ' until comparatively recent years), was adopted by the National '.Life in 185228 years before anv State of the Union required by law the payment of a cash value on the sur render of a policy. This act of the National Life of Ver mont pioneer, in issuing an "Insurance Bond" indorsing in the policy non forfeiture values, has been called "the grandest step in fair dealing in thej history of life insurance." I Again the National led in allowing the insured upon surrender of his policy to select either extended insur ance, paid-up insurance or a cash value payment. The National practices retroaction. The policyholders of the '50a are re ."elvlng the benefits of modern policies. You don't have to be a prophet when you insure in the National YOUR POLICY WILL ALWAYS BE KEPT UP TO DATE. Wm.
