DO|NCS Of THE
COMMERCIAL CLUB
RESERVATIONS ARE COMING IN
AND GOOD MEN ARE LEAVING
THE RANKS

Following on the heels of the res
ignation of President Foster of the
Commercial club, comes the resig-
nation of 3. A. Simpson as a mem
ber of the board OF directors, this
morning.
This is a regretable feature in
the affairs of the club, according to
statement OF an old member OF
the club this morning, and one that
should be deplored. Such business
men as Mr.. Foster and Mr.. Simp-
son lend weight to any organiza-
ton, and their places will be hard
to fill.
The regular meeting of the club
was not held last night, and the
next will be a called meeting to
elect a president, as the bylaws of
the present organization prohibit the
selection Of 2 president to fill an
unexpired term. The vacancy must
be filled by election.
Just what date this meeting VIII
be called has not been decided upon
yet, but will probably be next week.

Mothers Bread and Butter

We do not know why the Master Bakers, associ.
alton should have adopted resolutions against the
bread mother used to make" condemning It as I'm
sanitary. unwholesome and didhcult of digestion. So
far as great cities In and for which our master bakers
speealt are concerned, tho bread mother used to
make is no moro. Now and then, and here and
there a Mother in Israel or a daughter whom such a
mother has brought up in the way daughters should
be taught 10 60. may be clinging to the sweet old
traditions, the sweetness of which oOzes out at every
ineisioE of the teeth in white, faky surfaces. Eht
they must live remote from car lines. For the
best bread that mother used TO make was the salt.
rising bread, demanding absolute quiet and rep0se
for It's rising. There must he tiptoeing, In the house
where salt-risng has been set to rise. Otherwise
it will refuse to rise to the opportunity. and the
opportunity will he lost. along with a feast. How can
such a gift of the gods be expected to rise In a great
city, where street cars shake lintels and ~.corpices,
and thnnherous auto wagons aglate the earth?
The Master Bakers association has nothing ia.
fear. Gone is The juiciness Of the saltrising bread
and the almost equal juiciness OF. the Old.time yeast
bread, made in days when there were such things
40 "bakc days" in the domestic calendar. Are there
such days, in such calendars. now? Lovely woman.
It sometimes seems from q reading Of the newspa.
pers, is now engaged more in roasting than in baking.
Roasting. too, has its uses. which we will not decry.
HHu luul OHt VI TIC VIII VIZ "tuC O0SlC
Mr.. Wilson 10 such a fine turn, might really give
the master bakers something to ffIr if sho should
turn her hand to salt rising. As things, are. they
can rejoice and fear nothing. The empty tin cans
filing the alleys Of great cities show how boiling,
and frying, and fricaseeing have como with baking,
and little but roasting remains.
And the master bakers have still another arE Of
safety. The bread that mother used to make" might
be less sweet if we had now to eat 1t huttered with
oleomargcrinc.. or even worse, limitations %abounding
in cities in these later days. Mothers bread might
have tasted worse with oleomargerine, and the mas.
ter bakers bread might taste better with butter.
Bread and butter together made a perfect whole,
remaining with us as a delightful dream. from which
We might be rudely awakened should we, get the
bread without the butier now. As 10 digestion and
health. mothers bread and butter bred a race of men
who dropped not their bread with The butter side
down, which it was much easier to do then t1an
now. For, no matter how good the master bakers
bake in these days, it will be hard for any city nan
to drop his bread with a butter side either up or.
down. '. g.. E'

err I thought education was a means to avoid work;
l. thought wits We're a substitute for industry.

1t to me-" Not on your life: l said, LET George do
it" But J. didn't get on: n

If I could get into the newspaper business. Ad!
that was my chosen feld-that was the work i liked,
and that would be easy: but 1t wasn't.

and also found big salaried men, live wires. sue.
cesses, in the railroad business. in the insurance
business, and the mercantile business, as we'll as the
newspaper business and all of the rest.
AT 40, I've learned my lesson. I know what tie
trouble is now. Oh. that I might go back and have
my try over again. I have learned the. great lesson
that Practice Makes Perfect. That hard work would
accomplish anything. That the jobs | shirked were

Roosevelt and New' York

- II the New York PrOgressives give Mr.. Roosevelt
the surprise, suggested upon his return from South
America, will he accept their nomination? asks the
Washington Star.
Upon his return. from Africa. four years ago, some
Of. his friends desired him to run for governor then.
They saw what was coming-the break with Taft.
and all It implied. But Mr.. Roosevelt would not
consent. He was still a Republican. and stil openly
aiscouraging the suggestion Of his name in cohnec.
ton with another race for the Presidency. So he
contented himself with the craftsmanship of the Re
publican state convention and the nomination Of a
personal friend for governor. The Republicans, even
with him as the directing force, lost the election.
Il Things are different now. Mr.. Roosevelt Is no.
longer a Republican. He has: not only, broken WITH
that party, but denounced 1T as unworthy .of public
confidence. He has since made a,race for the Pres:
idency as the leader Of a new party, and is eager to
make another. His friends are as eager to nominate
him again. So that a race for the governorship OF
New York on the Progressive ticket this year would
be preliminary to a race for the Presidency In 1916.
This would change plans already made. Accord.
Ing to those plans, Mr.. Roosevelt is to be, q "royer'
