BREAD BAKER
OF HAWKEYE STATE
TELLS HER RECIPE
Lois Edmonds Finds Expert
ence of Greater Aid Than
knowledge of Ingredients.

Little Lois Edmonds, a twelve-year-
Old girl kneaded the dough and watch
cd inc baking, and she is now enjoying
free trip TO Washington as a result: Of
winning the state bread prize against a
hGld of 100 contestants.
MISS Edmonds' mother Is famed for
Eood cooking in the country neighbor-
Iowa, and she taught her prize winning
dnuS hter how to cook and bake.
Ihrre is not so much," said Mrs.
Eomonds. in mixing these ingredients
as in knowing when the dough Is stiff
enough, in Raising the bread carefully,
and In baking, it. ExpeI ience is worth
4 great deal"
The INGREDIENTS and amounts named
two small loaves of bread.
Ihe loaf that won the prize was pre-
pared and baked by little Miss Edmonds
IN the Ames College of Agriculture lab
turning 1t every few minutes. Her
care in baking really turned the contest
IN her favor. Two perfect leaves were
produced and she was required to
ton Of the Judges.
After she had mads the choice the ex-
cited little baker began TO weep. Some
and she replied that she was afraid
she had chosen the wrong loaf. Her
sister, Miss Nicola Edmonds, who is two
years oldef, was contestant at the
same time, and produced two fine loaves
of bread, one Of which failed to Capture
a prize because the oven was unevcnly
heated, and the loaf was more brown
and u little higher on one side than on
the other.
The little girl and her sister and
mother have disliked to tell the secret
recipe that won the prize because it
is being used by another girl in the
same county who may succeed in win
ming county trophy this year that Is
highly priced in Page county, Iowa
This same recipe has been used by
many other bread maker since the do
mestic science division of the, Ames
school was opened, but they have not
produced winning bread. All OF
which goes to show, according to Mrs
Edmonds, that experience and care are
the things that win prizes rather than
mere recipes.
The party of boys who are prize corn
growers and Miss Edmonds will remain
in Washington until next Tuesday.
Little Miss Edmonds is not wholly
pleased at the attention her bread
baking has brought her.
II wish you had won that prize" she
told her oldest sister yesterday. Then
| wouldn't have to talk to so many
people and have my picture taken and
have people look at me-"

CLAUDIA HAMS, NOW
MARRIED TO ARTIST,
GIVES SAGE ADVICE
Center of Sensational Trag-
edy breaches Honesty to
Self and Husband.

BOSTON, Feb. 6.-Claudia Libbey
Hams, central figure in great army
tragedy, resulting in the killing of
William E. Annis by her husband, Capt.
Peter c. Hams, jr.. was married at her
home in Milton, by the Rev. A. A.
Berle, of Tufts College, head of the
Peoples Forum at fremont Temple, to
Reginald f. Bolles, prominent Boston
artist In the Fenway Studios, Back Bay.
The new love story of the divorced
wife of Captain Hams is surrounded
with fully as much romance as that
which accompanied the winning of her
hand and heart by the dashing young
soldier who laid siege to her when she
was a Winthrop high school girl.
Through her love for art she met the
man who married her here. ..
After Captain Hams had obtained a
divorce from his young wife, who was
at the time living with her parents at
Winthrop-the same home from which
she was married--her parents sold their
cottage and moved to Squantum street,
Milton.
Young Mrs. Hams lived a quiet life,
trying, apparently, to forget the ordeal
through which she passed while the
scandal of army life was being aired
at the murder trial.
The ceremony here was private, at
friends Of the Bride and bridegroom.
II wanted 1t to pass off as quietly as
POSSIBLE, Sdlu MIS-, BOlleS, dIlef tnt
ceremony. II have been through too
much to suffer any more notoriety. /
want to live the rest of my life quietly
and far removed from the glare OF pub
llcity.
Honesty and independence, that Is
the. watchword for women who would
enjoy their married life to the utmost.
Women should be honest with them
selves. their husbands. and their
friends, and they should possess inde-
pendence, without which they will be
despised and ridiculed, and will even
tually become nobodies in their hus-
bands eyes.
"A woman should be honest with her
husband-she should frankly tell him
all the little things that occur to her,
even her thoughts and feelings. Her
husband will appreciate It, and there
will be confidence between the two. B.
60 the other hand, to conceal things
will cause a rift in the lute-sooner or
later-and will make both regret the
wedding day"
Captain Hams Is a son of Maj. Gen.
Peter G. Hams, an artillery officer dis
tingushed for service In the civil war.
General Hams was member of the
Isthmian Canal Commission and chief
Of an artillery division under General
Miles in the Porto Rican invasion in tho
Spanish war

City's Poor.

The opening OF washington's penny
Lunch room, at 24 John Marshall place

These articles Of food will be served

narily served in higher priced places.
For Poor's Benefit.
The penny lunch will be opened for
the benefit of the poor ana not for per-
sOns who can afford to pay more The
mission workers are in touch with
many families who eat and cook in one
loom. These people usually cook on oil
stoves, filing the room with the odor of
oil and cooking food. The penny res
teurant will permit them to live as
Cfeaply as their present inconveenient
method allows.
The lunch is expected to prove of
great aid to laborers who find work for
only ore or two days a week. There
are many Of these men who frequent
the mission. They pick up odd jobs
when they can, but seldom work for a
fill week.
lit also will place us IN direct COM
petition" said superintendent Kline,
with the cheap saloons that induco
free lunch, and then encourage the fire.
'quentcrs to spend more of their needed
funds"
AS the mission provides bed, hot

boy can live at the mission for less
than 20 cents day.
An Appeal for Funds.
Superintendent Kline is now making
an appeal for funds to carry on the
dread line" until Easter Sunday. Two
dollars will feed 100 men.
The dispensary recently opened by the
Gospel Mission, under the direction of
DR.. Charles H. Bowker and DR.. C. Cox,
is treating an average of seven patients
day. The formal opening of the dis
pensary will take place at the same
time that the penny lunch is opened,
February %.
"Of course, we can perform only first
aid or minor operations" said DR.
Bowker. LAS we have no hospital IA
cillties, we cannot take care of patients
requiring major operations, and these
will have to be turned over to the
charitable hospitals"

Two Reporters and One
Citizen at Meeting

The cold weather, combined with the
fact that no notices had been sent out,
resulted In a small attendance at the
mass meeting scheduled for last night
at the Washington Heights Presbyterian
Church, at which 1t was planned to dis
cuss the proposition of acquiring the
Truesden property in Columbia road for
a public park. AS a matter of fact,
two reporters and one citizen were the
only ones who showed up.
Rear Admiral Thomas o. Selfridge,
who is one of the leaders in the park
project, said, when seen at his home,
that he supposed the cold weather had
put a damper on the mass meeting,''
and that when he went to the church
early in the evening and found there

The Sign and The LeaVen.
The Story.

The temptation Of Jesus was not
all over in q jiffy. Even the "for-
ty days" was not all of it. His
testing was not something automatic
or preternaturaL. II so, then He
was not tempted like as we are"
He was now in the third year of
his ministry, yet here came again
the very temptation that met Him
on tho threshold. His aim was to
establish the Kingdom of God. How
should He do it? His enemies
challenged Him to give sign by
which it might be known that He
had been sent to establish 1t. Should
He force their hand by some trans
cendent miracle? Legions Of angels
would attend at His beck. He felt
a mighty power throbbing within
Himself. The short cut to the
goal seemed very desirable. Had
Jesus done that, the Kingdom he
established would have been ma
terial and worldly one broken
cistern that could hold no living
righteousness. The Master pene-
trated this with his clear vision.
Nothing could dim or blur his per-
ception. Nothing could swerve Him
from His purpose to found the real
Kingdom. Yet, as looking down
the ages. He saw the tardy unfold
ing with all its attendant agonies,
the very depths Of His being we're
stirred, and It is significantly said,
He sighed deeply in His spirit"
But even this did not prevent His
quick and peremptory refusal.
There shall no sign be given," is
