/ flour in baking) tends to make a loaf
less rich in protein and hence less
nutritious than the straight wheat -four
The addition of corn -four makes little,
if any, change in the nutritive value of
the bread, but makes it cheaper.
There are other flour substitutes,
such as soybean meal and pea -four,
which serve to add greatly to the nutri-
tive value of the loaf when mixed with
wheat -four. These products, unfortun-
ately, cannot be recommended in the
present emergency, since they are not
as yet common articles of commerce in
this ountry.
Il this connection it should be said
that a great saving could be effected il
the housewife would emulate the pro-
feshional baker and buy low grade
wheat flours. There are fiours on the
market quite as good for home bak-
ing as the fancy patent fiours, which
cost in bulk from % to 40 per cent less
than the fancy grades. Such are the
so-called Second clear" and "loW
grade" flours, which are graded lower
than patents merely because they are
darker, not because they are any less
nutritious or less palatable. In fact
the darker color may be evidence that
the -four is more nutditious than white

toned as a good and very popular
medium for the profitable use of -four
substitutes 1t is made of equal parts
of corn meal, rye meal and graham
flour and is a very nutritious bread.
There are various ways of making
over bread itself so as to effect con-
siderable saving. Thus stale bread
crusts, crumbs, etc, can be worked in
to palatable products such as bread
pancakes, bread crumb biscuit and

to get the commercial potato meal.
Plain mashed potatoes, four parts Of
mashed potatoes to three parts Of
wheat flour, will serve the purpose
quite well. If the dry potato meal or
fake is used, the ratio should be one
part of potato to three parts of -four.
Boiled rice can be used in much the
same way as mashed potatoes, care be-
ing taken to allow for the water in the
rice and to use about three times as
much in bulk as would be used of the
rice -four.
I'm making potato bread the spongs
should be used, and just enough water
to serve to mix the yeast with the po-
tato, since the sponge becomes very
soft after partial fermentation. The
remainder of the flour is worked in
afterwards, care being taken to make
a extra stiff dough, which should be
raised till quite light. This bread is
much moister than bread made Of
straight wheat flour.
Corn -four, which should cost about
two-thirds the price of wheat -four,
may be mixed with wheat -four direct,
one part of corn -four to three parts of
wheat -four. Use the mixture just as
though it were wheat flour-and mix it
yourself.
at should be remembered that the
addition Of starchy materials, such as
potatoes, rice or corn starch (which is
sometimes used to adulterate wheat

NAMES OF STREETS

LONDON, April 3.-War feeling is
not likely to obliterate German names
from London streets, since the London
County Council has turned down a
number of petitions on the ground that
q sufficient case for an alteration had
not been made out. Discontinued
patriots must therefore continue to
live in Berlin Road, Wiesbaden Road

FORMER NEWSPAPER
REPORTER BEC( MES
PICTURE DIRECTOR

1t is not generally known that Arch
er McMackin, the popular motion pic
ture comedy director, who left trail
of practical jokes in his wake when
he departed from Los Angeles to as
sumo his new duties with the Amer
lean Film Company at Santa Barbara,
was once newspaper man, and had
his training in a school that was
bound to make any man either a con-
scienceless joker, or grabbed mis-
anthrope.
MacMackin was cub" on the old
Chicago City Press. His job there.
like that of every other city Press
cub" was covering sordid little po-
lice court details, visiting the morgue,
attending inquests, following accident
cases and now and then a murder.
Quite few of the incidents that he
has incorporated into his productions,
some of the old reporters recognize as
real happenings. From all of this it
will appear that McMackin has been
plagiarizing for some of his comedy
stuff" from the great school of human
nature.

"The nub of the mixed -four question
hangs on who does the mixing. If the
housewife does the mixing she gets
the saving entailed; if the baker or
the wholesaler does it, he is very apt
to get the saving as additional profit.

WHERE THE MONEY GOES TO

The Census Bureau states that tn e average rate of taxation per capita has increased from $9.2o to $13.91 in 10 years Few would have supposed that the raise was as large propor- ton as this. It is the greatest single advance in cost of living. Other ne cessities have gone up,, but few of them are 50yper cent more than they were 10 years ago
 Where has the money gone? Of course public work is. usually pensve. is often cabling voters and cultivating useful political friendships. But these conditi ons. existed equally 10 years ago. perhaps more so.
 The American people within the past few years have realized the mad equacy of a great many public ser vices. As better educated genera ton comes on. it demands still better facilities. As humanitarian ideas spread, more generous treatment of the unfortunate is called for. Good roads, prison reform, charities, these eat up money fast.
 No item of expense ever slips more easily than a school appropriation And in most places no department has advanced more rapidly in cost. Teach people are no longer content with home trained teachers. They want sanitary, healthful. ventilated, airy, and sunshiny school buildings. They ought toshave them.
 Increase in cost of government seems inevitable. But there are a thousand petty wastes that could be saved. And many needless extrava- gances eculd be cut off, The town

BRIDGET,INES.
The first establishnent of

The first establishment of the monastic order of Bridgetines was founded by Birg1r, widow of ulpho, Prince of Nericia, who died on this date, July 2Srd, in 1872, and a few years later was canonized by Pope Boniface TX. under the name of St Bridget Of Sweden. After becoming the mother of eight children, Bridget separated from her husband and founded the Order of St. Savior, af- terward< called Bridgetines, in the Abbey. of Wastein, Sweden This was the first and only order to include both monks and nuns under the same roof. a regular establishment num- bering sixty nuns, thirteen monks, four deacons and eight lay brothers. St. Bridget believed that the mortified and humble life to which the inmates bound themselves by the most solemn paths would render them superior to temptation, and that the spectacle of men and women thus living together in innocence would be a profound testimony to the power of the Chris tan life. Many strange stories be- gan to be circulated about the life in these establishments, however, and gradually the system established by St. Bridget was abolished, and the convents were confined to one sex alone.

CARDINAL GIBBONS, s1
 TO-DAY, IS ARCH FOE
 OF WOMAN SUFFRAGE

James, Cardinal Gibbons. the grand old man. of American Cath olicism, will pass his eighty first milestone today, the venerable churchman having been born in Bal timore on July a23, 1884 The Cardinal still maintains lively in terest in public affairs, and is as firm as ever in opposing woman suffrage, socialism and other modern move rnents. In a recent open letter, writ ten with a view to it's effect on the woman suffrage campaigns now being waged in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Massachusetts, in which states the question of votes for the fair sex will be voted upon this fall, Cardinal Gibbons let it be known that he is still unfa1tering in his op- position to the political ambitions of women. He asserted that f'the bal lot would drag woman from her do- m mestic1 duties into the arena of politics, and rob her of much of her charm, goodness, and true influence" {" The Cardinal continued: E'She is, in deed, a princess, but her God-gfven gentler fields and ways. We all be- 1ieve that she has been so successful in her work there that we fear any change by the carrying of her govern ment into the political fieId-''
 In the opi11ion of the Cardinal
 
 sexes should engage proniscuous1y in the same pursuits, but rather that each sex should discharge those duties which are adapted to it's physical con- stitution and are sanctioned by the canons of society To some among the gentler sex the words equal rights have been, it is feared, synonymous with similar rights To 5debar women from certain pursuits is not to degrade her. To restrict her field of action to the gentler iavoca- tions of life is not to fetter her aspira- tions after the higher and the better. It is on the contrary, to secure to her not equal rights so called, but those super-eminent rights which which cannot fail to endow her with a sacred influence in her own proper sphere.''
 Since the war Cardinal Gibbons has beeh promin ent in urging upon Amer jeans the necessity of relief work, and in his appeal for the Belgian relief fund he described the Be1gians as a people wandering on the face of the earth, without a home" He said: "On1y a short time before the war travelled through their beautiful coun- try. Then I saw naught but peace and prosperity. Fields of grain. were awaiting harvest. The people were happy. No one saw the cloud of war approaching. But now Belgium has been drown into war without a quar- rel. The kingdom has become a bat t1efield for other nations. In this war Belgium deserves the sympathies of a1l.''
