BLACK BREAD OF GUETERsLOH
How Bismarck Started Craze for
Westphaiian PumpernickeI and
Made Fortune of Bakers.

Guetersloh was a town of some if
teen hundred inhabitants some eighty
years ago when, one day during the
maneuvers, a young lieutenant took
up his quarters there. This lieutenant
came from Pomerania, where they
also make black bread of fine quality,
but he liked better the peculiar flavor
of the Westphalia article. His name
was Bismarck.
In the year 1870 Bismarck was
again travelling through Guetersloh,
this time as chancellor, King William
was with him. When the train
stopped the prime minister called out
genially to the crowd that had come
to meet them:
rs there any one who can get us
some pumpernickel with butter?"
AS a number of reporter we're pres
ent when this query was made the for
tune of the Guetersloh black bread
was made, and it speedily became the
/ fashion all over Germany. The craze
! for Westphalian pumpernickel spread
/ far and wide, cunningly furthered by
/ the bakers who now baked for export
/ only small one-pound loaves, for the
/ purpose of making it look more like
a delicatessen," as they say.
The bakers of Guetersloh were
worldly wise, for from the same
kneading-troughs there go into The
oven first the huge Ioaves certain O
these that go to the farm-houses otter
weighing half a hundredweight) anC
then, shaped of what is left, the tiny
loaves that are wrapped in paper ant
exported to all parts of the world tt
be sold at a delicatessen.

FLAG PRESENTATION AT

The new flag bought by the pupils
of the school in conjunction with the
local school board, was presented to
the school Friday afternoon in the
auditorium. The exercises We're to
have been held out doors, but the
weather conditions were such that it
was thought best to hold them in
side. Miss Lively had charge Of
the unfurling of the flag, which was
attached to the balcony. The new
flag is 12x1S feet, and will replace
the one presented by the D. A. r,
society two years ago.
Following the unfurling of the flag,
America was sung by the school.
Prof. Wright's reading was enthusi-
astically received.

WHAT REASON HAS SfABOARD
FOR THE DISCRIMINATION !!
EFFORT BEING MADE TO FIND
OUT WHY DAYToNA is NOT
SHOWN ON MAPS AND
THROUGH TIMETABLES.

Why does the Seaboard Air Line
railroad persist in leaving Daytona
off practically all of the maps and
through schedules, and display the
ma mes of Ormond, New Smyrna and
otller much smaller places in large
type?
This is a question confronting the
cit lzens of this city, and one to which
tho board of trade has been unable
to get an answer. Now the matter
has been taken up by the hotel mems
as ISOLATION and the secretary of that
or yanization has been instructed to
fftials of that railroad and see if
so ne satisfactory explanation can be
obtained
This same matter was taken up
with the officials of the Seaboard by
the board of trade last year and the
ex planation given was that it was an
oy ersight, and that it would be cor
re tied next time maps and schedules
were issued by the road. This cor
re ,tion has not been made, and the
people here want to know why.
Daytona is thei largest city on the
liz e of the Florida East Coast rail
road between st. Augustine and
NJ ami, and the tourist business into
and out of Daytona during the winter
season is larger than any other city
or town on the East Coast, except ST
Augustine and Palm Beach. This tour
is. business to East Coasts points, SO
far as all railroads but the Florida
Eilst Coast road are concerned, stops
at Jacksonville, SO there appears to
be no sufficient reason why there
should be this discrimination against
the city OF Daytona on the part OF
the Seaboard
Under ordinary circumstances this
heavy tourist business out of Day
tona and north and east from Jacksoa
vile should be divided among the
railroads, and if the Seaboard Air
L nj fails to gat its share OF this
business and does not care for it, the
officials are taking the proper course
te throw it away.

9uzzlng Sounds Made by lnsec 4.

The different humming or buzzing
sound in insects is caused by the vi
bration of the wings, and the more
rapid the vibrations the sharper the
sound Scientists have estimated that
the common house fly vibrates it's
wings about 335 times a second and
the honeybee 400 times. though a
tired bee moves its wings more slow
ly and makes a different sound from
a fresh one. The butterfly is content
to move more slowly and makes no
noise.
