Today’s automobile Is almost en-
tirely an achievement of our natural
resources or products. With the ex-
ception of rubber which Is grown in
Africa, India or South America but
manufactured in this country, all
tbe basic materials that go to make
an automobile are produced In our
midst. Steel, mohair, plate glass,
nickel and lead are not only Ameri-
can products, but are. together with
rubber, used to a greater extent in
making enrs than for any other
purpose.
Practically every state in the
Union contributes to these materials,
either in their raw state or in their
manufacture. For example, our
youngest and fastest growing live-
stock industry, that of angora goats,
provides tlie mohair which is used
iti making mohair velvet for auto-
mobile upholstery. Some idea of Tlx*
demand for this durable fabric,
otherwise known as velum, Is gained
from the fact that one hundred mil-
lion yards, it has been estimated, are
now In service in cars on the nation's
highways.
These angora or mohair goats, as
they are more appropriately called,
originally came from Turkey, and
the United States imported millions
of fleece annually, but with the in-
troduction of the goats Into this
country, the mohair industry has
gradually been transferred here,
with a total annual clip of well
over seventeen million pounds.
The pile fabric made from this
fleece in New England mills is gen-
erally accepted as being the ideal
material for automobile upholstery
because of its long wearing quality,
usually outlasting the life of the car
itself, because it is easily cleaned
and hecattse it affords the greatest
riding comfort, all in addition, of
course, to Us lustrous ami beautiful
appearance.
Still another commodity of which
the automobile industry is Its lnrg-
est consumer is gasoline Eighty i" r

country, or twelve and a half billion
gallons, is used for keeping i to-

fjpHERE was a time when spe-
X cial dispensations to the de-
vout 'were necessary, in certain
districts, on Fridays because
there was no fish to be had. But
science has co-operated with both
religion and hygiene to make this
weekly abstention from meat a
possibility.
The fish now available in cans,
no matter where you live, include
anchovies (paste and whole),
caviar, clams (little neck, miuced
and razor), cod fish (balls, flakes
and cakes), cu bs (deviled and
plain), crawfish, haddock (“Fin-
nan Haddie”), herrings (fresh,
kippered and ir tomato sauce),
lobsters (Lobster Newburg, if you
like it, all reac.y to heat and
serve), mackerp , oysters, roc,
salmon, sardines (in oil or mus-
tard or tomato sauce), shed, shad
r*v‘ *>;rirm<u (d and wet) and
tuna fish.
With such an array to choose
from there is no excuse for any-
one not to practice this weekly
religious and hygienic observance.
Everyone lias a favorite way of
serving cod fish, salmon, sardines
and tuna fish, but here’s a new
tested recipe for mackerel that
will surprise you:
A New Recipe
Mackerel Surprise: To make
this you need a one-pound can of
fresh mackerel, two cups white
sauce, one-half cup sliced stuffed
olives and two-thirds cup salted
peanuts. Remove skin arid bones
from the mackerel and flake
coarsely. Put layers of the fish,
■olives and white sauce in a but-
tered baking dish or in individ-
ual ramekins, having sauce on
top. Sprinkle with the crushed
peanuts and bake in a moderate
oven until peanuts are crisp but
browned. Serves eight.*

Hard times
are good times
sometimes!
Hard times frighten your
competitors. And their sales-
people are licked before they
start because the “boss’* is blue.
But it’s an ill wind that blows
nobody good. If a business de-
pression makes your competi-
tors lie down, then business de-
pression is an opportunity for
you.
The right sort of business
man tries to turn obstacles into
opportunities—and hard times
are no exception.
You have the store. You
have your salespeople. Add to
these the vitalizing power of
newspaper advertising and you
have a time-tested formula for
turning hard times into good
times.
