had resolutions endorsing the pro.

create a sentiment in its favor. They
secured the names of the S. A. RS,
G.. A. RS, Sons of Veterans, members
Of the Loyal Legion and members of
other patriotic societies, who were
members of that legislature. This
list secured by the committee was
sent to Captain E. d. Hadley of Des
Moines, with letter asking him if
he knew any of the men and which
one he would recommend to introduce
the bill. He recommended Senator
Grant of Waterloo who introduced the
bill very early in the session. 1t

duced in the house by Representative
Neil, who had been recommended by
one of the ID. A. RS. A legislation

one time when the bill was in the
hands of the committee to which it
had been referred by the house, the
chairman called Senator Grant be-
fore the committee and said that the
bill was too verbose and too drastic.
Senator Grant, not having drawn up
the bill scarcely knew how to defend
it. He met the legislative commit
tee of which Mrs. Still was chairman
and Mrs. H. L. Howell, then stata
regent, in the office of the attorney
general and said he didn't think the
bill as it was worded. would pass and
recommended more simply worded
bill which was accordingly drawn up.

Baking Helps
LearI to Regulate the Heat Of
Your Oven
ByAf,s. Janet Meksen-ie Hill, Ediko,of
the Bostos Cooking School Magazine

ByIHrS. /nh<E IXCheN-tS (7tLk, EdtkOr0

There is Just one way to make
your cakes rise high and keep an
even surface. Have your oven
moderate at first, until the cake is
fully rizen; then increase the heat,
so as to brown it over quickly.
Extreme heat stiffens the dough.
If you stiffen the outside of the
cake before the rising is complete,
you stop the rising process. Then
the leavening gas, forming inside,
will bulge UP the center. where
the dough is still soft, and spoil
the shape of the cake. Al
NorE-Biscuits or other pastries
made from stiff dough, that are cut into
shapes for the oven, bake in hot oven.
This is because the cut surfaces of the
dough do not scar over, but rather
leave the pores open, allowing the
1eavening gas to escape and the heat to
penetrate readily. Small ovens cool
quickly; therefore they should be made
several degrees hotter than a larger
oven, and the less the door is opened
the better. Do not attempt to bake
bread and pastry, together. Bread re-
quires prolonged, moderate baking
pastry the reverse.
Have strong underheat for baking
powder preparations, especially pastry.
These are only few OF the many
baking helps found in the K c Cooks
Book copy of which may be secured
by sending the colored certificate taken
from ascent can of K c Baking Pow
der TO the JAouEs Mrc. Co.. Chicago.

This changed bill came to Captain
Hadley's attention and he protested
SO strongly to Senator Grant and the
committee against it's being substi-
tuted, that the original bill as sent
up by the keokuk chapter d. A. r.
became the law.

law was drawn ND and passed,

"
/ Mrs. Reeves speaking for the keo-
kuk chapter, D. A. r. and to set his
tory straight on the question, spoke
of the history Of the passage Of the
! bill. On the night on which the one
! hun dredth anniversary of Abraham
| Lincoln's birth February %, 1900
was celebrated in the Grand opera
house, bills were passed through the
house advertising some future attrac-
ton, the advertisement being printed
| on the American flag. Some of the
D. A. RS present were indignant at
what seemed to them a desecration
of the flag. They were confident it
was a violation of the law and told D.
J.. Hughes who was manager, that
they were sure he was violating the
law and accordingly he stopped pass
ing the paper flag advertisements.
The following morning some of the
d. A. RS called on John f. Craig to
find Just what the law was and were
surprised to find practically no flag
law on the Iowa statutes. At the next
meeting. Mrs. r. M Lapsley, who
was chapter regent. appointed a COM
mittee Of which Miss Ora Belle Cole
was chairman, to take steps toward
having a bill drawn up which should
be presented at the next legislature.
Miss Cole wrote to Ralph e. Prime.
president of the American Flag asso-
citation. asking his advice as to how
to proceed He recommended the
bill which today forms the Iowa law.
Mr.. John E. Craig drew up the form
which repealed the old law and sub
stituted in it's place the present law.
Enlist Other Chapter.
To enlist the Iowa society D. a. r.
in the effort to have the bill passed,
Mrs. Winona z. Reeves was sent by
the chapter to the conference at Ce-
dar Falls in October 1910. to present
the matter. The Iowa conference
unanimously endorsed the plan and

w. c. Howell was next introduced.
He was to make some comments on
an editorial on patriotism, which ap-
peared recently The question raised
was whether patriotism was declining.
Mr.. Howell spoke of the fact that it
would be almost impossible to expect
the people of foreign lands who come
here to forget all of their traditions.
There was a lack of true nationalisEl
which would put the love of this coun-
try before all others. He thought that

the opinion being written by Chief
Justice Parker, and it might be in

who was defeated was William Trav-
