Europeans in Water When

Sampan Capsizes

Five Europeans were thrown into the harbour yesterday when a sam- par capsized about 50 feet from Queen's Pler about 2.45 p.m. They were Mr. D. Taylor, of the R. A. F. Kai Tak, and four friends, three of whom were women.

The party were travelling out to ja yacht at the time of the incident, which was caused when the party suddenly moved to one side. They all swim ashore.

Kwok Sai, sampon mistress, her husband and two children, were rescued by nearby sampans. but her mother, Weng Shi, 69, was sent to the Queen Mary hospital suffering from the effects of immersion.

A great World Food Authority

PRAISES PORRIDGE

ESPECIALLY BECAUSE OF ITS THIAMIN

(VITAMIN (1)

AND ITS ECONOMY

Broadcasting from the British Broadcasting Corp. in January, this great Food Authority said: '

"There is a vitamin called B, which is believed to be of special value in keeping the digestive tract and nervoni system healthy. Some food products are advertised and sold at a high price because they are rich in B1.

"Well, there is more of this vitamin in oatmeal than in almost any other comnion food.

"Porridge and milk are better for you than bacon and eggs.They are far cheaper.”

And here's why delicious QUAKER OATS

is s

good for you:

"VITAMIN B1 is absolutely essential to healthy life; without it, you develop head- aches,irritability, 'nerviness,' lose weight and strength.

"Quaker Oats is a rich and economical source of Thismin (Vitamin B1)—vital to our cxist-

ence.

"Quaker Oats contains every vital health element. It is doubly. nourishing, for in addition to Vitamin B, it is also rich in mus. cle-building protein, with valu- abic phosphorus and iron.

"Quaker Oats is a delicious creamy breakfast food that every- one can buy. There's nothing as cheap so good, nothing as good

so cheap, s Quaker Oats."

Also you can be sure that. Quaker Oats is always fresh- and always clean. It reaches you hermetically scaled, as fresh as

it left the mill.

Remember to order QUAKER CATS at your food store today.

If you want to save money, yet pae the best dentifrice you can buy, try the Kolynos "dry brush" technique.--That is, use only a half-Inch of Kolynos on a dry brush. See how quickly Kolynos becomes a pleasant-tasting, active foam that surges into every crevice on and between the teeth. Stains and discolorn- tion disappear almost at once.

Start this amazing Kolynos "dry brush" technique today. You'll see how really clean and sparkling your teeth can be and how economical Kolynas is
