Occasionally we hear some
one say. "My breakfast the
year around in always the same."
Certainly this doos not sound
very appetizing; and most of us
would dread breakfast-time if we
knew we must eat exactly the
same sort of meal day after day.
Os course we all know how easy
it .Is to drift into the habit of
serving familiar dishes over and
over again when we are busy and
do not plan our meals ahead of
time. And since only certain
foods seem suited for breakfast,
we sonxetimes feel it is even
harder to vary the menu for that
meal than for any other.
However, there are many de
licious fruits, cereals, hot dishes
and breads that can be used to
help make this important first
meal of the day much more in
teresting. During the spring and
Bummer there is a wide variety
of fresh fruit that will be very
welcome for breakfast, and the
following menus will help provide
a number of nourishing, yvell
balanced meals to start the day
right.

“In Spite of the Devil"
Historic Stream Sees
Engineering Feat
SPUYTEN DUYVIL, the brack
ish and frequently turbulent
body of water separating Manhat
tan from the mainland, which was
the setting for one of the best
legends of the early Dutch colon
ists, was the scene a few days ago
of an engineering feat that Is
attracting widespread interest.
Something of the same spirit of
determination which fired the hap
less Dutch trumpeter, central fig
ure in this legend, from whose
exploit Spuyten Duyvil got its
name, was displayed by tho
engineers who directed this opera
tion.
( Trumpeter Drowned
According to the story which
has survived since the days when
New York was the village known
as “New Amsterdam," upon the
sighting of the hostile British fleet
entering the harbor, this trump
eter was dispatched to warn and
summon the upland fanners to
the defense of the settlement.
Reaching the stream, he found its
■waters so rough that no one
would undertake to ferry him
across. Whereupon he is reputed
to have exclaimed that he would
cross "in spite of the devil," and
plunging Into the water, was
drowned in a vain attempt to
swim to the opposite bank.
• The distance across the stream,
now equally well knoyn as the
Harlem Ship Canal, is approxi
mately six hundred feet. A prob
lem for the trumpeter, these six
hundred feet also have been a

spoon of Apple Butter, and cover
with a spoonful of batter. Bake

I A total of 23,400 feet of heavy
■ wrought iron piping were ordered
i by the engineers. This material,
perhaps the oldest of metals,
. seems to defy time and the ele
ments.
Delicate Operation
Assembled into lengths of 650
, feet, the thirty-six ducts were
. yoked together with wrought iron
. bolts in four layers of nine
. lengths to tho row. Then, filled
with oil to ease tho operation of
drawing the power lines through,
the piping was placed on barges
which brought the many-ton load
; into position over a previously
dredged trench. Bent to confor^jfct
to the bottom of the stream,
great bundle of piping was theU^

a diver who guided the operations
by signals from the under-water
trench.
Since traffic on the canal had
to be suspended, a Sunday was
chosen for the operation which
was completed by the Merritt,.
