A total each day of more than 1,000 hours of opera- tor and switchboard time in Michigan alone. Look in the telephone directory first.

Scald the oysters in their own liquor, reserving the liquor. Oil a baking dish, put in a layer of the spaghetti and then a layer of the oysters, season with salt and peppers and repeat the layers until all the oysters and spaghetti are used; finishing with a layer of spaghetti. To the liquor from the oysters, add enough milk to make a pint, reserving a small quantity to mix with the Sour. Scald the remainder, add the scalded milk to the moistened flour, stir well and simmer 20 minutes. Add the melted fat and pour over the layers in the dish. Top with bread crumbs mixed with melted fat, and bake in a hot oven (400-450' F.) just long enough to brown the crumbs, about ten minutes. 41 J@1 -w.

YOU GIVE TO THE WORTHIEST OF CAUSES WHEN YOU GIVE TO THE -RED CROSS And if you should stop to ask the reason why— the answers are manifold! For this great army, your Red Cross, stretches out a hand of mercy to millions all over the world—soldiers, sailors, marines and civilians. A hand that collects mil- lions of pints of life saving plasma ... a hand that delivers millions of sustaining food pack- ages to dejected allied war prisoners . , . a hand that delivers heatening emergency mes- ages from loved ones and to loved ones ... a hand that brings food and clothing to helpless victims of a ruthless war. Yes, this is your Red Cross that does all these things and more! For over a war-torn world its hand of compas- sion offers hope and comfort to wrecked souls and maimed bodies. Can an organization whose every fibre is directed at aiding and giving sol- ace to the war weary be denied? Look to your heart for the answer. Without your gener- ous contributions the R> <. Red Cross could not carry on its magnifi- ^vvf + cent and humanitar- ian work.
