Cake Displays Strength

Tuesday was waik-over cake day at Professor Michaers cooking school, now in term at Long-Lewis Hardware com pany, and cookies, cinnamon rolls and sweet cakes of all kinds were baked. Cof- fee was served by Miss Hattie Allen to a large number of interested ladies.
 The most unique feature of the day and the climax was the test of a cake weigh ing 351a pounds and several feet square, six layers high and iced with cocoanut. The cake was placed on the sidewalk in front of the store and topped with a plank bearing Mrs. Ella .Leeper, Mrs. G. McCampbell, Mrs. Sam Stein, Mrs. John Cannon, Mrs. S. E. Jones and Miss Hattie Allen. Nedless to say the cake was flat after this treatment but arose to it's former height and beauty, was served and proved to be delicious.
 Wednesday will be devoted to the bak- ing frying and broiling of meats and from the expressions of admiration heard on all sides for the splendid cook, the ex- hibition will be worth while.

the Senorita Terera has met many a

fighting lies in self control, for the

The bull fight was once popular in
ancient Greece and Rome and was in

colonies throughout the world. The
bull fight is held in an arena of more
or less magnidcence. The bulls are

An eight-room house, somewhat on
the bungalow order, is given in this
plan. A bungalow, properly speaking,
has only one floor but this plan pro-
vides for three bedrooms above, and
kitchen is added at the back, with
a lower roof.
The bungalow developed in this
country on the Pacific coast. The
idea, probably, was originally brought
from India, although a great many
architects claim that the modern
bungalow really is the outgrowth of
the log cabins and the sod adobe
houses of the early inhabitants of
the United States. Probably bunga-
low architectural ideas could be traced
back to all these sources The result
is that we have very comfortable
low cost house called a bungalow,
which is being extensively built in
different parts of the country. and it's
popularity is constantly increasing.
Within easy reach of large cities,
bungalows are going up by the hun
dreds and the idea is a good one. Peo-
pie are tired of being crowded into
small, unhealthful quarters, and are
taking this means of providing them
selves with good, sensible homes at a
reasonable outlay.
The original bungalow roof was low
and broad; but in order to get more
sleeping accommodation, the ridge was
raised just enough at first to get one
room. Builders, however, have re-
peatedly pushed it up higher, until we
see a good many houses built very
much after this plan, with about three
bedrooms in the roof
1t costs but little more to build a
seven or eight room house in this
way, than to build a five room house
with the rooms all on the level. The
rafters. of course, are longer, and it

POLITICAL WAR CLOUD IS

question of tariff revisIon until the
regular session assemblies next win
ter. His reason for this is that the
tariff board would be able to report
several schedules by that time.
Neither is there any obscurity about
the programme of Speaker Clark, Rep
resentative Underwood, chairman of
the new ways and means committee,
and other democrats who are direct
ing the policy of the house. Their
plan for progressive legislation on sew
eral subjects with which the country
has been made familiar in the past
year or so has been given out.
Now that the new majority in the
house has adopted rules giving it just
as much power as any majority ever
enjoyed, there is no doubt measures on
the subject of direct election of SEN
ators, publicity before elections of
election campaign contributions, Cana
dian reciprocity, revision of the wooden
and cotton schedules, and any further
tariff changes the majority desires will
be sent to the senate in whatever or
der is decreed by the ways and means
committee. The republicans will be
powerless to prevent. The real legis-
lative problem, therefore, will be at
the senate end of the capitol.
Only time will tell what sort of line
up there will be in the senate on tariff
matters. Previous sessions have indi-
Gated that there are just as ardent
protectionists in the democratic repre-
sentation as in the republican, and
like situation may develop when
tariff questions are taken up at this
session.
The division in the senate is Pc
culiar. OF the fifty republicans there
are twelve who have practically form.

manded, and the committee on com.
mites probably will accede to their
