A Bail Jumper,

Horace Mansfield. attorney -at-iaw
was one night preparing for bed when
he received a message summoning him
to police headquarters TO a client who
was waiting for him to advise and as
sist him in obtaining bail. Mansfield
went to the police Office. where he found
man about twenty-five years old and
apparently gentleman Lawyer and
client were permitted to talk together
apart from the others. and the client
said:

for that is all can raise"
But surely replied the lawyer.

whether l am or not. II the case
comes to trial ! shall plead guilty"
Mansfield looked at his client I'm sur
prise. He would have as soon believed
himself guilty Of pilfering as the young
man before him.
ANY defense would do In your case"

That is my intention"
Mansfield succeeded in getting the
bail bond made $1,000, and his client
produced the funds himself. Then he
paid his attorneys fee and went forth
a free man. When called. for trial he
did not appear, and his bail was for
feited. An elderly gentleman appear
ed to testify against him, and Mans
field. who was present as the accused's
counsel. asked him something about
the case The only information he re-
ceiyed was that the thief had effected
an entrance 10 Jne Ola Sebtieinah

gentleman said he was not surprised
that the bail had been forfeited. for
the thief was evidently well connected,

POTATO BREAD.

There appears to be more or less
humorous side OF the war on high
priced bread. In Germany the gov
ernment decreed that bakers should
mix potatoes with wheat in order 20
conserve the foodstuffs supplies. II
did NOD work well at first as people
refused TO buy the bread with pota-
toes as a component part.
Thereupon the kaiser commenced
eating 10 himself and announced that
4 was served exclusively upon the
royal table. The consumption OF this
particular kind OF bread became at
once universal in Germany. but did
not stop there. Il f. now being baked

innovation did a fine thing for the
human race as the style Il going TO

make the worlds supply OF wheat 20

ammunition and armament that we
have paid for and should have In re-
turn for the countless millions OF dol
lars OF the American peoples money
that have been expended from the pub
lie treasury.
mean to say that those army and
navy officers who do the purchasing OF
war munitions and who are paid a
salary by the people and are trusted
by the people to see that the govern
ment receives a dollars worth OF ma
terial for every dollar expended have
permitted a ring OF ammunition manu-
facturers TO outrageously overcharge
Uncle Sam for armor. guns. powder,
and munitions in general.
For instance. the war department
in 1918 purchased seven thousand 40
inch shrapnel from the ammunition
ring. paying s25.26 each therefor. At
the same time precisely the same
shrapnel was being manufactured in
the goyernment-owned Frankfort ar
senal for $15.45.
Mr.. Average Citizen. are you will
ing that the public officials in the war
department who are spending your
money should pay s25.26 for an arti-
Gle that they could have manufactur-
ed in government plants for s15.45?
This instance is not the exception,
Il T. the rHle. The army and navy Of
fcers in 90 years have purchased
SI75. 600. 900 worth OF armor. arma-
ment and munitions from four firms
which have a monopoly in this coun-
try on the manufacture OF such sup
plies and have paid this grasping war
trust from 20 20 GO per cent more than
the same articles could have been
manufactured for in government
plants
AS the result of frequently repeated
statements similar TO that made by Mr.. |
Gardner. the average citizen is at last /
beginning 20 ask: What becomes OF I
the $3.50. 100000 that is being spent an /
nually on our army and navy? Who. !
pray, Is getting the money?
