Germany Studying Bread.

In the production and control OF
pure food supply by thoroughly scien-
tlfc methods the Germans are dis
posed to keep their lead. The new
Government method institute Tor
milling research, supplementing the
two Institutes for research in the
sugar and fermentation industries,
is equipped with an experimental
granary, q wheat and rye mill and q
bakery, together with administrative
Offices and laboratories, the machin-
cry and apparatus being OF the most
advanced kind, all driven by cleo
tricity. The mill has two distinct
plants, each milling two tons OF grain
in ten hours The purpose OF the In
stitute is to carry out practical re-
search and scientific investigation on
grain during storing, milling, work
ing up and baking; to experiment
with the baking of home and import
ed grain; to conduct research work
for the Government, and to carry
out official and private analyses OF
grain, -four, fodder stuffs, etc. Every
effort will be made to investigate
thoroughly the numerous problems OF
milling and baking.-St. Louis Post

wolves came; the night was still and
soft, the dark blue sky was all alight
with splendid stars, shining and gilt
tering as they wheeled slowly across
the sky-so slowly that little Jacob
could not see them move. He did
not speak much. for the stiffness was
like a finger on his lips, but he
watched the heavens with wondering
eyes, and when his father looked
down at him and smiled Jacob heard
him say softly:
The heavens declare the glory of God,
And the armament showeth His handi-
work.
Day unto day uttereth speech,
And night unto night showeth knowledge.
Then Jacob began to wonder how
the days spoke; If 1t was with noisy
winds, or birds singing, or the sound
of waters far off, and then he fell
into a kind of dream, leaning against
his fathers knee, for it was almost
midnight, and David had sat down to
rest.
But suddenly, in one breathless
moment, both David and Jacob sprang
to their feet, and all the other shep-
herds crowded up to them with pale
faces, and open eyes, and trembling
knees; for In an instant, without
sound or sigh, the wide heavens were
flooded with light and glory, brighter
than the sun at noon; the stars were
drowned in light, the radiance flowed
in waves of splendor from mid-heaven
down to earth. And then, In the
deepest depths of glory far above
their heads in the heart of all the
shining, appeared great angel, with
robes of whiteness brighter than the
gathered light, and face calm with

A case in point is the scene pictured
on this page. In the city prison a
number of Jews are thrust with great
violence. Their houses and stores
had previously been looted. No
charges we're made against them, and
the only complaint made about them
is that they did not surrender their
property on demand of the mob. II

and the darkness awed him; the plain
seemed to meet the sky; he could see
only broken line on that clear dark
horizon where the roofs of Bethle-
hem, low and fat, crowned the hill
top; his hand grew chilly in his
fathers and David saw the boy was
afraid. He spoke to the other shep-
herds, who sat or stood among the
flocks:
"Let us sing the folding Psalm,
brethren, for the child is strange to
the night, and remembereth not the
Shepherd of Israel is with u.s." So
two of the men began, in rich, low
voices, to chant:
The Lord is my shepherd;
And then the rest answered:

He maketh me to lie down in green pas

And another response came:
He leadeth me beside the still waters.

awful gladness; and the shepherds
were sore afraid, for they thought the
Day OF the Lord was come. But the
angel smiled upon them, like the sun
shining In his strength, and spoke
like the voice OF the sea for might,
yet sweeter than the turtle-doves
amid the cedars of Lebanon, and he
said unto them
Fear not! For behold bring you
good tidlngs Of great Joy, which shall
be to all people. For unto you is
born this day in the city OF David, a
Saviour, which Is Christ the Lord!
And this shall be sign unto you:
Ye shall find the babe wrapped In
swaddling-clothes, lying In man

Little Jacob heard these words, but
he knew them not, except the name OF
Messiah, for whom he often heard
his mother pray In the evening time,
but now, while the glad tidings
sounded STILL behold! from the
bright depths OF Heaven came angel
after angel, countless as the hidden
stars, and radiant as light itself; their
stainless ranks rayed outward from
| the vast, calm shape of the Herald
| Angel like means from the morning
sun, and with a great sound like the
flowing OF some mighty stream, they
sung the song OF Heaven:
Glory to God in the highestl i
And on earth pence;
| Goodwill toward men
! The wondrous sound thrilled all
the high and glowing Heaven, and
then, still with strains of glory and
peace ringing above and falling
fainter and fainter to those below,
rank folded In on rank, the Angel OF
the Lord leading upward, and the
awful splendor gathering up about
them, they scared into that glory, and
the glory shrouded their departing
| cohorts, and the dark midnight sky.

smitten eyes, bent its purple arch
again above unconscious earth.
David stopped and lifted Jacob In
his arms; neither Of them could
speak, but old Simeon, the Oldest OF
all the Bethlehem shepherds, bent
low, and, with uncovered head, began
the chant:
o, come let US sing unto the Lord
Let us make joyful noise unto the Rock
| of our Salvation!
with low voices they sang the Psalm
through, as they turned from the
plain toward Bethlehem, forgetful OF
their flocks and herds, caring for
nothing but to find the Messiah, the
baby In the manger, the Son of God.
And there, indeed, In a rude cav
ern, where the beasts of burden were
sheltered and their poor masters fed
by the way-there, upon shaken
wisp of straw, very babe In the
flesh, lay the infant Christ, with His
awed and adoring mother kneeling
beside Him, and Joseph the carpenter
standing with folded hands, amazed
but faithful, beside the newborn
King of Israel.
And while the shepherds told their
wondrous tale, and they that were In
the inn heard It, and adored, Mary
shut up all these things in her heart,
and little Jacob gazed on the calm,
sad face of the Mighty Child, and
went away with vision In his soul
that never left 1t while life remained.
"And the shepherds returned, glor-
flying and praislng God for all the
things that they had heard and seen,

drilling a third well to depth of 900
feet, and cased the we'll from the top to
the bottom, but the flow of water Sc
cured in the we'll was so limited that
the we'll as it stands is of no value
whatever. The town board has ar
ranged with him to drill deeper in hope
of yet striking a good flow Even if
these efforts are successful the contract
or will be out many hundreds of dol
lars as the result of his attempt to drill
an artesian we'll here. 1t is the gen
raj expectation that by going deeper he
will be able to secure a good flow in
the third well. Water from the we'll is
designed to be used for domestic and
fire protection purposes.

HIGH SCHOOL.
Baccalaurate Sermon by the Rt.
Rev. Mgr. T. A.
Flynn.

The great interest felt by the people
of the College City in education was
further manifest last evening, the occa-
sion being the baccalaureate sermon to
the graduating class of the high school.
The sermon was by the Rt Rev. Mgr.
I. A. Flynn, at St Thomas church.
Early in the evening the people began
to assemble, streets leading toward the
church being thronged with those de-
string to hear the sermon and notwlth-
standing effort had been made to ac-
commodate all, the capacious church
was soon filed and many were turned
away.
The graduating class, numbering 81
members, assembled at the residence of
Or. S. M. jerks, Josephine avenue and
Eighth street, and marched to the
church in a body, accompanied by
Supt Hess and members of the school
board of education The class members
were seated together in pews reserved
for their use
The service opened with sacred hymn
by Misses Blanche Ball and Jessie Re-
walt, following which Rt. Rev. Mgr.
T. A. Flynn read his text "Unless the
Lord build the house. they labor in
vain who build it," The reverend
gentleman was in his favorite position,
facing the class OF young people, and
his discourse throughout was of a high
order, calculated to inspire and uplift.
He dwelt upon religion as the supreme
element in life-riches, self -preferment
and all other attainments being non
essential.
The benediction, with solo by Miss
Gertrude Cook, followed the address,
Glass day exercises will be held this
