Loaf Bread In England.

1t is perhaps worth recalling that
the art of baking loaves of bread was
introduced into Europe quite late In
history. Flat cakes were baked even
In the earliest times. but as late as the
beginning Of the nineteenth century
loaf bread was comparatively un-
known in many parts Of the continent
In 1912. for instance. when an Eng
lish captain ordered lOaves to the val
ue of SIS in Gothenburg the baker stip-
ulated for payment in advance on the
ground that he would never be able
to sell them in the city If they were
left on his hands.-London Standard.

The News is publishing this week 4
most interesting sketch by James r.
Hill of Hendersonville, n. c., entitled
"a Legend of Lake Crescent" The
legend will have an added interest to
citizens of Florida residing in this sec
ton of the state and who are familiar
with this beautiful sheet of water and
the country round. Mr.. Hill was for.
merly a resident of Crescent City and
who became SO enamored of that sec
ton that he now spends his vacation
months there with Mrs. Hill, whose in
terest in this beautiful section of Florida
is not less than his own. The sketch
was written for and published in a lead
ing Pennsylvania paper and is repro
duced in the News by permission of its
author Mr. Hill is most entertaining
writer, gift he seems 10 have more by
inheritance than cultivation. His brother
was formerly well-known Pennsyiya
MIA editor whose literary work counted
for much. The News trusts that the
author OF this sketch may feel inclined
TO make other interesting contributions,
more particularly if they shall delvc into
the most interesting but little written OF
past of this peaceful, prosperous and de
lightful section OF our fair Florida-the

ROWSE'S TASK
IS NO EASY One
SURVEY OF THE DEs MONIES
RIVER IS PROGRESSING
DESPITE OBSTACLES.

81 Within a short time the corps of
surveyors in the party OF Assistant
United States Engineer A. o. RoWse
will be working in the river at OF
tumwa. They are now close to Eddy
vile and are progressing as swiftly as
possible with the task, which by no
means is an easy one. After this city
is reached, the various obstacles met
with on the work from Des Moines to
Ottumwa will be absent, as the lower
part of the river is considered much
better than the upper part. Concern
ing the work of Mr.. Rowse, the Des
Moines Register and Leader recently
carried the following editorial ex-
preston:
It isn't likely that Major A. w.
Rowse, has the easiest task, in the
world determining whether or not the
Des Moines river can be made nayi-
gable or not Every new sand bar
that lifts itself out of the dwindling
water makes the problem harder and
every cloud of sand that rises from q
river bed that ought to be submerged
adds to the discouragements.
But. nevertheless, future generations
will surely improve streams like the
Des Moines river and utilize them for
transportation of heavy freight. What
Europe, with it's crowded population,
is doing today in river and canal i'm
provement the United States must do
in future years, when it's population
becomes as, crowded and it's transpor-
tation problems increase. Although
-the railways of the country ridicule
river improvement and declare that
money expended in keeping river
channels open to boats is money
wasted, they are unable to cope with
the tremendously increasing freight
traffic of the country The transpor-
tatlon demands have for years grown
more rapidly than the ability of rail-
roads to meet them, and they will con-
tinue to do so When the United
States enters upon an enlightened and
economical plan of river and canal
improvement the freight congestion
will be relieved, and not until then.
The United States needs it's rivers and
canals in its business an 1t must have
them sooner or later.
SO laugh if you will now at the
proposals to make the Des Moines
river navigable, it is good time for
laughter in dry season like this. But
some day the Des Moines river will
play an important part in our inland
traffic just as surely as water con-
tinues to flow down this natural way
to the Mississippi and to the gulf.

DEATH CLAIMS
Pop uLAR man
EDWARD P. WRIGHT sUccuMRs
AFTER AN ILLNESS OF TWO
DAYs-FUNERAL MONDAY.

A disease with which medical
science was unable to cope, brought
death to Edward Percival Wright, the
22-year-old son of Mr.. and Mrs. Arthur
A. Wright, $50 West Fourth street, Fri
day evening at $50 O'Clock, after the
patient had been i'll but two days. The
sudden taking off of Edward Wright
brought grief untold to his beloved
innumerable friends. Acute inflamma-
ton of the bowels forced the decedent
to his bed after reaching home at mid
night Wednesday and death relieved
his sufferings last evening. The pa
tient had been attended by the most
skilled physicians, but the ravages of
the ailment had progressed too far for
human aid
Edward Wright was the only son OF
Mr. and Mrs. A. A. Wright and was
born in this city. After attending the
Ottumwa high school, he entered the
services of the Burlington and became
proficient telegraph operator. He had
worked in Gladstone, ILL.,, and Indian
ola, Ia, for the company, and had for
over a year held the night trick at the
yard offices Of the Burlington in this
city. His unassuming manner and de-
sire to please won him the admiration
Of his associates in his work. HIS
manliness endeared him to his friends
and to his parents and relatives and
more intimate friends he was much
beloved. He was member of Trinity
Episcopal church, and, until his occu-
patton prevented it, he had been q
member of the choir. He was also a
member Of Ottumwa lodge, No. 16, A.
F. and "A. NJ.
The funeral services will be- held
this afternoon at o'clock from
the residence. Interment will be made
in the Ottumwa cemetery.
