MOTOR CLUB KICKS
ON VACATION

The application Of E. H. Stanton
and the Spokane Harvester Com
pany to have a portion of the
Trent road opposite their proper
ties in the eastern part of the city
vacated has opposition from the
Spokane Motor club through H.
Louis Schemerhorn, it's president,
who filed a protest with the city
clerk this morning in which he
denounced the proposed vacation
of the road as a piece of selfish
ness on the part of the property
holders. The letter states that the
vacation will result in dangerous
bend being made in the highway
which is much used for automobile
travel, and the Motor club Is anx-
ious to secure as good roads as
possible in and out of the city.

FUN ALWAYS ON TAP

Merry Bunch of Clowns.

The man who can sit thru a per-
Torrance Of the Barnum and Bailey
Greatest Show on earth without
laughing at least once minute
had better see a doctor and have
his face thawed out. The COM
pound essence Of nonsense, double
distilled tom foolery and mother
tinct,ire Of laughter are unbottled
at every performance by the merri-
est army Of clowns that ever scat
tered sawdust.
From the moment the company
of testers first comes tumbling in
to the arena till the end of the
performance. the fun is fast and
furious. There are clowns from
Germany, fools from France testers
from Persia, and the drollest of
Americas comedians, each with a
new device for producing laugh.
A screamingly funny airship stunt,
a burlesque automobile act, a gro
tesque lion tanning speciality, a
Chinese laundry scene, the sausage
factory orchestra. Paderewiski and
the Barber, the Mars vestibule linn
tied, and q hundred other original
specialties that keep the hippo
drome track in constant hubbub
of nerriment. There is not i
clown Of any consequence in Amer
lea that is not seen with the Bar
mum and Bailey circus this year.
The fun is Of a superior order, APP
pealing notalone to the children,
and there IS more of it than ever.

To the Ladies.

Dear Madam:
We believe it is the ambition Of
every woman who has charge of
family, to have the best bread
that can be made, and the first
requisite is good flour. Every
house wife realizes that care must
be taken to produce light spongy
bread.
First: Good flour. &
Second: Good yeast. (Home-
made potato yeast preferred.)
Third: Intelligent and careful
mixing. Don't put in too much
-four. If you do the bread will be
dry and crumbly.)
Fourth: Proper temperature
for rising.
Fifth: Sufficient kneading.
Sixth: When the loaves have
risen to the right point they should
be placed in a properly heated
oven.
Seventh: Care in baking.
We can furnish you with the first
requisite in the "GARLAND"
-four which has no equal as bread
producer. It is rich in gluten
gluten the ESSENTIAL for brain,
bone, sinew and muscle. Hence
"GARLAND" will make more
bread, and give your boys and girls
vigor and brain power to meet
competition in these strenuous
times-either in base, basket or
football, or in business later in
life.
The GARLAND FLOUR" is
manufactured from the finest hard
glutinous wheat produced from the
virgin soil of South Dakota, and
is only to be obtained under the
bran" GARLAND"
Loyalty to family, LOYALTY to
your city-LOYALTY to your
home industries should be your
watchword. Watertown's manu-
facturers cannot succeed unless
they receive the loyal support of
her people.
