To ORGANIZE SERVICE
RIFLE ASSOCIATION
The National Secretary to Start
Countrywide Correspond
ence Campaign.

BOSTON, Mass, August 12-The
National Rifle Association of America
has taken up the question of the forma
ton of service rife associations, the
first plan for such organizations arts
ing at the recent New England mill
tary tournament al Wakefield. The ma
tional association has taken SO much
interest in the situation that instead
of only an army service rifle associa-
ition, the formation of similar separate
associations for the navy, marine corps
and national guard is now evident.
Albert 5. Jones, secretary of the Ma
tional Rife Association, is in communi-
cation with some of the Bay State
militia officers. He is going to make
the movement countrywide at once by
a CORES pondent campaign.
Mr.. Jones in one letter SAYS: "There
is no time more propitious than the
present to take up the subject of a
formation of an army service associa-
ton, as usually in all shooting mat
tiers, we are from p to 40 years be
hind all other first-class nations with
such organizations.
"The National Rife Association of
America would be very glad to cooper
ate in the organization of an army as
ISOLATION in this country, and would
be willing to amend its bylaws so that
service organization could be ma lie
acceptable for membership as first
class organization, coming in under
the same class as State rife associa-
TONS
He proposes that there be two classes
of membership -organiza cation and indi-
vidual. He says that the fees could be
used to promote rifle practise purchase
trophies and even pay expenses of an
army team.
If the organization becomes a fact,
Secretary Jones promises to use his
cooperation to secure through public
subscriptions a trophy to be competed
for by teams representing the four
service organizations, that is the army
navy, marine corps and national guard,
to be known as the "United Service
trophy
With reference to this trophy he
says: 81 believe that this would be a
most popular match and could be run
off the day following the close of the
national matches. and would add great
ly to the annual programs of the ma
tional board and the National Rlne
Association
"Several such united service
matches are held at BisIey, England
annually. One called the united ser
vice challenge match is competed for
by teams of eight from the royal army
the royal navy, the royal marines, the
special reserves, the yeomanry and the

BREADMAKING IN
DIFFERENT PLACES

In visiting Greece | was struck with
the primitive ovens built behind most
of the houses in small towns, says a
Greece letter in the Bakers Weekly.
They were like large beehives, built
of clay; they were evidently solid up
to the sole, then had the arched roof
over, with a door at one side.
They are heated with fires of straw
and twigs and when ready for use are
swept out, the dough put III and the
opening stopped up with stones and
clay till the bread is cooked. Struc-
lures like these are typical of the ovens
found in many lands where men have
had to evolve appliances for various
uses from the materials they had at
hand
Thus in some places we find holes dug
in the earth and lined with stones, in
which fire is kept burning until sut1-
cient heat is raised, the bread being
then put in and a stone laid over the
opening with a fire on it to keep up
the cooking heat.
In some Eastern countries fire is put
into a large earthen Jar with small
mouth and sloping sides, the cakes of
bread being stuck on the outside of the
jar 10 bake.
Then We know the old fashioned Cir
die, 50 much used in old Scotch houses.
on which scenes, bannocks and oatcakes
are fried. This is also employed in
Scandinavia for baking the universal
'Flad brod, and it is also in use in
many other countries in various shapes.
In Cornwall the old kettle style. of
oven is still used for home baking, the
dough being laid on the hot hearthstone,
with large round IRON pot inverted
over it. Fire outside OF this keeps up
the baking heat, and the Cornish "ket-
tie bread - is very good eating indeed
even if it is a little puddingly in the
center sometimes.
Even more primitive means Of baking
have to be used sometimes, as when the
Australian digger rolls up his dam
per- in leaves and covers it with hot
ashes to bake; but still all methods
from hot stones to draw plate ovens
are used for the one great purpose t.
make bread. and the variety OF means
used for this end goes 10 show the
universal Importance of that article
! Regular bakehouses with proper oven.
seem to have been in use however. for
| hundreds Of wears. and doubtless many
! relics Of them are still in existence.
