Master Baker Says
Modern Housewives
Bake Soggy Bread

KANSAS CITY. Aug. 22.-That the mod
ern housewife who attempts TO bake her
own bread produces a soggy article and is
committing murder in allowing IL TO be
eaten was the statement made by Paul
Schulze Of Chicago. president Of the Ma
tional Association of Master Bakers, al the
second days session of the annual conven-
ton Of that body here today.
This country is full of housewives who
are proud Of their cooking and who think
they are doing their duty at home" Mr..
Schulze said. The long suffering stom-
achs OF their families continue TO pay
the penalty OF this mistaken sense Of duty
The American housewife, the American
mother Of today is a sensible individual,
but very set in her ways She is still in
fluenced by the working methods adapted
in her Eirlhood. The bakery industry has
made great strides in the present genera
ton. but the bread that Is being baked
in the home kitchen today is very little
changed from the homemade bread OF a
generation ago. The kitchen fire Is still
inadequate. One thing which we bakers in
the larger cities see most plainly today is
the absolute necessity Of educating the
housewife to quit baking at home. Let us
come forward. Let us show these women
that home baking is wrong. Let US make
them realize the overwhelming benefits
Of buying bread baked in modern sanitary
bakeries"
Mr. Schulze told OF a woman in Chicago
who had built UP a business selling health
bread" her home product. She brought
him a loaf and wanted 10 sell him the

spirit shown on both sides during the course
Of the negotiations prevailed in future re-
lations the country had heard the last OF
every strike in this day and generation.
However, he was unable to resit making
a heated denunciation OF Home Secretary
Churchill and the employment OF soldiers
during the strike Mr.. Churchills bule-
tins on the situation, he said, were mis-
chievious and inaccurate and the express

desirous of continuing the fighting than
coming to a settlement"

what he described as "a reckless display
OF military force"

PAWN TICKET CARRIES THE NAME
szsrt sleeve Founa where Bandits
~ Were In Hiding of same Material
Of Garnnt Worn By the
Dead Man.

Ths body Of the man found in the river
at Florence Sunday was Tuesday declared
70 be one OF the murderers Of Marshall
George Butcher at Missouri Valley last
week.
Sheriff Rock OF Logan is authority for
the statement that the drowned man Is
one Of the murderers. lie came 20 Omaha
Tuesday and learned that a shirt sleeve had
been toTp from the clothing on the dead
man. A sleeve Of the same material was
found on the island near Modais. where
the battle between the posse and des-
peradoes occurred last week.
At the request Of Sheriff Rock the body
was exhumed and when viewed by the
officer he made the Identification positive.
Coroner Crosby did not report any bullet
wounds on the bandit and II is the sup
position that the man was drowned in es-
Gaping across the river in the terrific rain
storm which followed the battle on the
island Friday. when the posse lost the two
murderers.
The description corresponds with that OF
the taller Of the two men wanted for the
murder. The body had evidently been in
ne water for about two days. He was q
man about five feet ten or eleven inches
tall. heavy set and Of muscular build. His
hair waa black and curly
The man found in the river wore q pair
of lavender socks. The lining Of the shoes
found by Sheriff Rock on the island Satur-
day had become stained Lavender, evidently
from socks Of that color.
Many Convincing Facts.
The murderers were supposed 10 have
cast away their shoes on the island and
gone away In their stocking feet The
body Of the man found in the river did
not have on a pair OF shoes. and the bot
tom Of the stockings had been worn
through from walking without shoes.
The shirt worn by the murderer was
blue and the sleeve found by Sheriff Rock
on the island was also of the same color,
While on the island IL is thought that the
bandits tore their sleeves from their shirts
in order to wind them about their feet.
The body found in the river by the boys
Sunday did not have a sleeve In his shirt
while the color Of the garment was the
same as that worn by the bandit and also
the same color as the sleeve found by the

very pleasing manner. The
drum corps was busy at sunrise
and each old soldier was seren-
AIDED with the music which so
thrilled them in the days of long
ago, and which yet causes them
to quicken their steps and as
sumo an erect position in spite of
their load of years.
At 1920 the parade formed,
with VonProsky's band and the
Meade Ladies band in line, and
proceeded to thecemetary, where
with appropriate services the
graves of the departed comrades
were strewn with flowers.
In the afternoon very enjoy
able program was rendered at
Phelps Opera House. VonPros-
ky's band was at it's best and
rendered a delightful selection
which'was followed with "Amer-
lea" by the audience. The In
vocation was by Rev. Everett
Sperow. Asong by the combined
choirs of the different churches
was both appropriate and enjoy
able. The children gave drill
in very pleasing manner. I'm
Gle Sans Photograph Album was
we'll rendered and "Little Boy
Blue" song by Louie Osborn
elected much applause. The
Ladies Band was next on the pro-
gram and their music was COM
plimented on ever hand. The
dialogue peace and War" by
the children was something new
was given in good shape and very
appropriate.
J. M. Brannan and CAPTAIN
Frank Sourbeer made short
talks followed by Captain r. M.
Painter who made the address of
the day. The Captain is so well
known to Meade audiences that
anything we might say would be
a repetition. Another song by
the chorus concluded the pro-
gram.
The town was full of people
and the Hall was taxed to it's
and the arrangements
worked out to nicely. The
Sons of Veterans camp gave
much assistance in preparing and
carving out the program.
We must say a few words
about the bands. Both were in
good practice and seemed to be
full of the spirit of the occasion
and the music was of the kind
which is seldom heard outside of
the professional organizations.
In the evening both bands COM
bined played in the band park
and made excellent music.
