Avoid the Cheap and "Big Can" Bak-
ina Powders

The cheap baking powders have but one
recommendation: they certainly give the
purchaser plenty of powder for his money
but ITS not all baking powder; the bulk
is made up Of cheap materials that have
no leayening power. These powders are
so carelessly made from inferior mate
rails that they will not make light, whole
some, food. Further, these cheap baking
powders have a very small percentage Of
ieavening gas; therefore it takes from two 70
to. three times as much of such powder to
ralse the cake or biscuit as it does CT Calu-
met Baking Powder. Therefore in the long
run, the actual cost to the consumer of the
cheap powders is more than Calumet
would be.
Why not buy perfectly wholesome bak-
ing powder like Calumet, that is at the
same time moderate in price and one
winch can be relied upon? Calumet gives

Those who believe in the moral and

tlonal athletics III our schools and colleges
are most deeply concerned at the present
tendencies to athletic mania among our

are in danger of producing a reaction that
is likely to deprive US of the great benefits
that normal athletic activity and interest
unquestionably possess. Nor are our stu
dents to be held wholly to blame for exist
