Tha Annual Exhibit $102.60 Msttioa Co., mattreaaes food The foods your children eat today, determine their strength and health in later years. Remember this; they must have well balanced meaR Their food should contain the right amout of mineral salts. These salts act as bone building material. Bakings that are made of good plain white flour and baking powder contain the necessary amount of min eral salts. Allow your chil dren to eat heartily of these bakings together with fruits and dairy products. This forms an ideal food balance. When making quick rising breads and pastries such as: biscuits, muffins, cakes, waffles, etc., don't fail to use Calumet the economy Baking Powder. It contains more than the ordinary leavening strength it's the purest and surest leavener made. That's why it helps make your flour foods light and easily digested. Millions of mothers use Calumet daily because they are interested in their child ren's welfaretheir present and future health. PACKED IN TIN -KEEPS STRENGTH IN prejudice the needs of other vet erans differently situated. Some of the veterans have been organised into anti-bonus organisations, but do these veterans speak for the entire body of former service men: "American boys who volunteered or were drafted into the service at the outbreak of the war made no de mands regarding their compensation. They could make no demand. But all must concede that the pay they received was far from commensurate. "Certainly the pay did not meas ure up to the standard of wages paid in civil employment. When we entered the war Congress realized the pay of former service men was in adequate, when living costs were con sidered. Congress therefore raised the pay from about 60 cents a day to SI a day. "Why should Congress have neg lected to raise the pay to $2.50 or 3 a day? If Congress had done so, could there have been any serious ob jection from the country? Obviously there would have been no dissent from the people. "When the need for men to fight the country's battle was urgent there was no objection to boosting the ser vice man's pay. "Everyone will concede that even the higher compensation fixed by Congress was too small, that it was inadequate and unjust to the men who offered themselves as the country's protectors. "Enormous sums were paid in bonuses to war contractors. No propaganda was started to stop these payments. They were accept ed as a matter of course in prosecut ing the war. "When the war material manu facturers, and the railroads which transported these supplies to sea board, presented claims for losses or for linrpniizpH nrnfitu hpransp nf the sudden termination of the war, the Government made full settlements, and, in many instances, the con tractors were overpaid. "We heard no hue and cry over these payments to contractors who profited by the war. "Why should we now hear agita tion to prevent just compensation to former service men, whose sacri fices were greater than those who stayed at home while the fighting was going on? "A bonus for the men is just must be paid." C C Cnnford, E. B. Leach, and C M. Staley. The minutes of tha previous meet ing wen read and approved. E. V.
