philosophers, they have the abil
ity to make their philosophy come
true.
The street parade for which the
Christy circus is distinguished, will
leave the show grounds promptly

because of lil henith.
The resignation applied only to
the committee chairmanship and
no indication was Riven he intends
to relinquish the post of lieutenant
governor. C'ornlns's term in that
capacity expires January 1.
"Until a child is thirteen," reports the
American Child Health Association, "a
quart of milk a day is vital to complete
development." Yet statistics show that
every fifth city-child is undernourished.
How about your youngster? Is he getting
plenty of milk to drink? Pure milk?
To keep our milk pure and good until it
is consumed, we use Seal-Kaps on our
bottles. Seal-Kaps cover the entire pouring
surface. Seal-Kaps protect the rim from
contamination.
Seal-Kaps are easy to remove and re
place. No need to pry with picks or knives.
No milk splashing on your clothes. After
wards, they make u handy and safe
bottle cap until nil of the milk' is used.
Have us deliver your first bottle tomorrow
