Electrically Baked
Bread Just as Good

[From the Electrical world,l

Through the use of electric power.
The largest business in the Rocky
mountain region has been built up by
one baking firm. Flour is hauled di-
rectly from the mills and handled by
two electric elevators.
Electric motors are used to drive
gravity mixers and sifters as well as
TO drive the pumps used for taking
water from artesian wells. Every morn
ing at o'clock two electric mixers are
used to tear up the dough. Batches of
1000 pounds each are mixed for twenty
or thirty minutes, after which yeast,
sugar and starch are added. When
these are assimilated the machine tilts
automatically emptying the dough in a
trough where it is kept at a tempera-
ture of eighty degrees, Fahr., and al
lowed to raise for about eight hours.
1t is then deposited in "a hopper from
which It drops by gravity to two motor
driven dividers. The dough in each
machine is forced in by a weight, four
plungers simultaneously producing
four loaves at the rate of $500 loaves
an hour.

cooling room to permit the loaVes to

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
fFromsthe New York Sun. !

tFrom the New York SUM-
New York does not lack preachers
their pulpit oratory, or gladly resort to
rhetorical violence In their EFFORTS to
arouse their auditors to good works
and godly lives Yet we do not re-
member that even the most daring Of
these ministers OF the gospel has ever
turned away 5000 would-be hearers
after 5000 had been packed into the
auditorium in which his message was
to be delivered. This is the thing that
Billy Sunday did on Monday night at
Carnegie Hall.
MIR. sundays methods are not novel;
He is, indeed old-fashioned to de-
gree. His doctrine is of the simplest.
He breaches heaven and he'll. God ana
the devil, in the familiar manner of
the campmeeting evangelist. His APP
peals are crude and rough. He does
not seek to win his converts with
honey, but belabors them with threats.
He uses copiously the slang OF the
street. There is no refinement of die
no effort to soften his denunciations, to
excuse sinners, to make the path of the
righteous seem easy. Harsh. blunt.
uncompromising, how does he achieve
results that have put him in a unique
position in this country to-day?
The churches wonder and complain
at their empty pews. religion Is
dead" means the despairing Christian:
it has been killed by golf. by Sunday
baseball. by socialism, by Indifference,
from a petty bit of half education,
swallowed but not digested. And mean
while Billy Sunday achieves such tri-
umphS at the sinners bench as recall
the noble days of old. and give life to
a gallery of WORTHLESS at whose activi-
ties the knowing poke mild fun.

Evangelist Slough Gives
Fathers Some Hot Shot
Tells Them How They Fail to BE
Boys Heroes

Mt. Carmel, Pa, March 12.--Be-
fore an audience of more than 1000
In the Tabernacle last night the Rev.
DR.. Henry Slough, the Illinois evan
gelist, delivered Home Makers and
Home Breakers" He said:
God intended that father and
mother should be all supreme over
their children" and added that the
example of good parents was lacking
in many homes.
The boys father is his hero" he
SAID. His daddy is the biggest man
the little fellow knows anything
about. Are you the head of your
Iamliy! Are you your boys hero?
Ihen how did you act at home? Did
you get up last Sunday morning and
run about the house in pair of old
carpet slippers and an old hickory
shlrt! Perhaps you did not even
shave until dinner time. But you
got on your hat and coat and started
for the nearest cigar store and
bought your DEVILS bible. Some of
you people are ashamed to be seen
on the street carrying our old Oxford
blDle, but you load up with q lot of
sunday papers with lot or lurid
pictures. This is what some of you
nave TO do on Sundays. 1t beats all
What amuses some of you heroes"
with stinging sarcasm the evan
gelist said that since the wives of
these men did not have kodaks to
show them how they looked, he
would do 1t himself. He affected a
reclining position in chair, adding
bltingly that the only danger of the
position lay in the possibility of the
brains running to the feet.
In the meantime" said the evan
gelist, mother would be in the back
room tying up little pigtails and get
ting the children ready for Sunday
school. The children are rebellious
and your wife asks you to speak to
them. You growl out something
about minding their mother and
slide little farther down in the
chair, with your corncob pipe hang
ing out of your mouth.
Little Johnny comes in sullen
He has comb his hair in front. He
has spit on the blacking brush and

but stay at home like daddy does and
read the papers, And he means it.
1t Is all because his father is his
hero
The evangelist said that unless the
mother is the stronger character of
the two, in nine cases out of ten the
boy would follow his father and. he
"The most pathetic hour
that comes to a boy is when he finds
that his father is not as good as he
thought he was-not his hero
