others are not. Marvin's loaves are
bigger too, consequently, cheaper.
You can't bake bread at home for
less than you can buy Marvin's,
can't make it any better either.
Ifyour grocer doesn't keep Mar

Saner, respectable German, and HlS
wife were murdered last night in their
home near Hinchi own, four miles north
and their son is missing. Their barn
was burned and the house was set on
fire, but the neighbors arrived in time
to extinguish the blaze. Mr.. and Mrs.
Saner lay full length on the kitchen
floor, their clothing buIned from their
bodies, having been saturated with oil.
Neighbors put out the blaze and saved
the bodies and house. The floor was
covered with blood, which ebbed from
eight bullet holes In the left side Of Mrs
Saner's head, and from would caused
by heavy blow in the back Of Saner'8
head. Near Saner lay the barrels of
the gun. They were bent as if from
heavy blows. a visit to the fire at the
barn revealed nothing except the burnt
carcasses Of horses, cows and other
stock. Many supposed that the boy
was burned In the barn, but there is
nothing to warrant this save his alb
Sencc. The coroner soon arrived and
Saner's pOcketbook, containing 1926,
was found. 1t is believed that the entire
family was murdered AID that roObor Y

others friendly TO tho administration
denounced 1t as "1re in the roar"
Neither spcnker Crisp nor Chairman
Wilson had beon consulted as to tho
caucus and II was recognized as directly
in opposition 10 their wishes.
Representative Strauss, q close frlond
Of MI. Wilson, expressed the opinion
that tho caucus would provo boone

other conierees and their friends would
attend the caucus and undertake, to
carry it. With such men as Speaker

Messrs. Springer and Bynum make
