UNCLE SANS COOKING SCHOOL
Government Turning Out Finished
Cooks and Bakers

Everett Dye, son of Mr.. anC
Mrs. R, 7. Dye of Laelede, who
enlisted in the United States army
about two years ago and has beer
stationed at Ft. Lawton neal
Seattle, will this month graduate
and receive his diploma from the
army school for cooks and bakers
at San Francisco, Cali. Few
people know that the United States
conducts cooking school, yet it
has such an institution where many
finished bakers as well as finished
cooks are turned out. The men
are selected from various com
,spanies and must have at least one
andl one-half years more to serve
in their enlistment. They must
show some adaptabilIty for either
cooking or baking and a desire to
study. They must be possessed of
a certain amount of intelligence
and be men of regular habits.
Those in the cooking class are
taught to cook everything while
those in the baking class are
taught to make bread, pies, pastry
and all other things which first
class baker should know how to
make. When they have completed
their course and received diplomas
these men are scattered about
through the army to serve the re-
malnder of their enlistments.
Many of them remain in the army
for life. Others leave at the end |
of their, four years and accept
positions as cooks or bakers in
civil life, and it is said to be a |
noteworthy fact that these gradu-
ates of the army school command
higher salaries than those from any
other training establishments in
the country. One reason for this
is that they are not taught merely
to cook or bake but are Instructed
IN the science Of their trade. Mr..
Dye has taken instructions in both

Laclede's Greatest Need

Laclede has ample church facili-
ties, a fine school building that is
filling the present needs of the
district, a splendid electric lighting
system, an excellent telephone
system, well kept park, many
fine homes and when the new Ben
son building is completed the
present shortage of business and
Office rooms will be relieved for a
time; therefore at the present time
our greatest need is an opera honse
or public hall. 1t is nothing less
than calamity for town the size
OF Laelede to be without a public
meeting place. But that is the
very condition we are in. If we
are to maintain our standing las
progressive and live people some
thing must be done. Realizing
this fact the city council has called
a special election to be held Satur-
day, September 27, at which time
the proposition to bond the city in
the sum of five thousand dollars
for the purpose of buying a site
and building a city hall will lie
Voters should become
interested in this matter and. be
to decide for the best
interest of all concerned.
