The practice of wrapping each loaf of
bread in oiled papers when IL is taken from
the oven and sealing the knot of the string
holding the paper, az is done in a few first
class shops on the other side, is desirable
for protecting bread when the loaf has to
be handled many times in the process of
delivery The bread Is protected from dust
and handling as we'll as the possibility of
baclii, and the paper prevents the mois-
ture In the bread from escaping and keeps
the bread fresh.

at $3.50 o'clock.
Decoration Day." by Miss Virginia
Lyons, was a beautiful invocation. calling
the List" by Miss Della Carswel, was
the next on the progromme.
THE Bonnie Blue Flag was sung, and
Miss Lottie Justice recited 1.-THE Con-
quered Banner" Miss Annie Twitty gave
a beautiful recitation. The singing of
''Tenting on the Old Camp Ground" was
highly enjoyed. 1.-THE Confederate Dead"
by Miss Mamie Beavers, was interesting.
Misses Twitty, Covington, Perham and
Lyon, and MessTs. Murphy and Buchanan
sang the Star Spangled Banner and an
anthem.
Prof. e. A. Pound, superintendent of the
city public schools, made an appropriate
address, which was eloquently delivered.
The assemblage then formed a process
sion, headed by the Waycross Rifles, and
marched down Plant avenue to Lott Gem
etery. Numerous wreaths and bouquets
were carried by the ladies and children
and lovingly laid on the graves of the con-
federate dead. The Waycross Rifles sa4
luted the dead soldiers, after which the
decorators returned to their homes.

1T is stated that preparations are be-

Smdstrnp, Denmark, with view to have
the castle ready for it's owner in case of
his abdication or deposition.
Everything sent from Athens by the
special correspondents emphasizes the in
creaslng gravity of the situation there
and the rapid development of the revolu-

there is no doubt that the Turks are oc-
cupied in establishing their lines of COM
munication, it is equally evident that the
Greek disaster in Epirus is much more
serious than was at first supposed. 1t now
looks like a hopeless task to renew the
advance upon Janina, as Turkey is in a
position to send overwhelming reinforce
ments.

Greek forces show up in very bad light,
