#ACON rot BREAKFAST
(The Munday Times)
There's certainly nothing re-
markable about a piece of bacon,
ens of millions of us eat K
every day. It's one of the com-
monest of foods, just as H is one
Of the most desired. But the
imping industry has to do a con
siderable amount of work before
it's possible for you to bite into
a slice of it. For bacon doesn't
exist on the pig. In a sense, it
has to be manufactured.
First, the proper side of meat
has to be selected, tiimmed and
squared. Then comes the curing
process, for which there are
hundreds of different recipes re-
sulting in a variety of flavors.
Then the side goes into the
smokehouse, where it gets its
marvelous fragrance. Atfer that
it is chilled and formed. Final-
ly, it is sliced, attractively
wrapped, and sent on its way to
the store.
This is just a simpie example
of the thousand and one services
the packers pirovide for con-
sumers. And few industries give
so much service for so meagc.r
a profit. Since 1925, meat pack-
ing firms have realized average
earnings of only slightly more
than one per eont dollar of
sales. During the same period,
eenera! manufacturing firms av-
eraged nearly five cents on the
:ales dollar. Handling and pro-
cessing the meat you eat is a
big and complex job that's done
at an amazingly low cost to you.

"The first thing we do, let's

lowers, in the play, "Henry the
Sixth."
It has been quoted often as an
example of the occasional an-
tipathy of the public toward
lawyers. However, an examina-
tion of the play reveals a rather
interesting turn to this quota-
tion.
Jack Cade was a pretender to
the throne . of England. In the
process of inciting his rebellion,
he promised the rabble that
they would get several hall-
penny loaves for a peons', and all

ten-hoops, all things should he in
common, the laws of England
would come from his mouth, and
his mouth would be parliament
Here was tiii promise of dic-
tatorship, socialism and Com-
munism, all rolled into one, in
the time of Shakespeare, and in
order to accomplish these re-
sults the first thing to be done
was ito kill all the lawyers who
would naturally oppose any such
system.

Chrysogonus, the political power in the framing of the Deelara-
of Rome, condemned Rosicus,
ao that his property right might
be confiscated tor the benefit
of Chrysogonus.
When no one else would de-
fend Rosicus for fear of Chry-
sogonus, Cicero came forward
and, with the knowledge that he
stood alone againat ' thr most
A„figuc& ,in~ Rome, made
immortal when he t*-
fused to temper hi* argument,
courageously attacked Chryso-
gonus, and shamed the court in-
to turning from cowardice to
follow the law and set Rosicus
f!ree.
Thus was broken the abuse of
the powerful in using the courts
to deprive men of their liber-
ty, their rights and possessions.
Ciccro's act is a tradition of the
legal profession today.
Look also to Lord Coke, who
dsfifed Kirte James when he said
the king is under the law, and
thus again set the pattern for
the supremacy of law for all,
high and low alike.
America has had many great
lawyers to who each of u« owe,

mendous debt of gratitude, for

Here's why
Chevrolet
out-V8's
everybody!
These features and advantages are the measure
of a truly modern V8 engine . . . and only
Chevrolet lias them in the low-price field. Most
aren't even found in high-priced cars. That's
why Chevrolet is stealing everybody's thunder
with the most modern V8 on the road!
