Dealers Are Urging Buying of
10 Cent Loaf and Drop

News-Times Special Service
ELKHART. Ind, Aug. 19.-While
the big bakers of the country are
planning to discontinue the making
OF the FIVE cent loaf of bread be-
cause of the high price of -four.
local bakers declare that no such
action is contemplated here. How
ever they are encouraging the sale
Of the 10 cent loaf and discourage
ing the sale Of the FIVE cent loaf.
The sale Of the five cent loaf
will not be discontinued as far as
know. said one OF the officials
Of a local baking company, but we
have worked in cooperation with the
retailers to discourage its sale and
encourage the sale Of the ten cent
loaf" The retailers have explained
10 their customers that the 10 cent
loaf is really the economical loaf TO
buy because of its superior quality
and larger size. The result Of this
kind of an explanation is the sales
of the FIVE cent loaf have decreas-
ed as percent in the last six
months and is continuing TO de-
crease. The price of -four really al
most makes the nickel loaf an i'm
possibility. but we will continue to
bake il as long as the others do.
Another baker made statement
similar to the above. He added that
the retailers had discontinued sell
ing the 10 cent lOaves at three for
a quarter.

raises any higher we will have TO
do something. either cut down the
nickel loaf 10 about half it's pres
ent size or discontinue its sale al
together" was the assertion Of a
third local baker. There is hardly
the smallest fraction of a penny
profit in the nickel loaf and YOU
know about how long a business
could continue under those condi-
tons. However we are meeting COM
petition but l am glad to say that
the sales OF the FIVE cent loaf are
steadily decreasing. thanks to the
retailer, who is conducting a cam
paign Of enlightment among his Gus
toners giving them the reasons why
the ten cent loaf is the best to buy
from every standpoint"

FRAUDULENT ADVERTISING.

In recent opinion, Justice Me
Kenna, of the United States supreme
court, draws a definite and unmistak-
able line between honest and dishon-
est advertising.
In effect, he holds that it is per-
fectly legitimate for an advertiser toI
eXtol, to ''pufr,'' an article or com
modify, providing that such praise is
confined to merits or qualities actual
ly possessed by such article But
when merits are conjured up, invent
ed; when an article is accorded quail
tiles and values which it does not
have, and when such merits or quail
tiles are ascribcd to the article in or
der to lure the prospective purchaser
with an expectation of receiving more
/ than he pays for, then the element
of false pretence enters, and such ad-
vertising is fraudulent.
\ merchant is not, by this ruling.
restricted in his liberty to describe,
even with enthusiasm, the attractive
qualities or merits of goods; he must
not, however, claim for them quail
ties or merits which they do not
have.
This decision places the whole con
fused subject Of what is honest and
what is dishonest in advertising on a
basis OF common sense, 1t sums up
the matter IN this simple way: If you
tell the truth about the thing you

The national convention is an en-
thusiastic gathering called for the
purpose of nominating a president
who will listen to reason. 1t is held
once in every four years at heavy ex-
pense for badges and delegates, which
is cheerfully betrayed by the second
class postmasters and the candidates
for federal office with which every
town of over 400 population is SO
thickly congested.
One of the first acts of the national
convention is TO open with prayer,
thus injecting religion into politics,
but not enough to spoil the programs.
After the national committee has
seated all of the delegates that will
stand without a rope halter, the polls
are opened and a number of worthy
citizens are voted for by their own
states. When this has proceeded far
enough to permit the manufacture of
1000 feet of moving picture film, the
leaders decide to nominate somebody
who is strong with the masses and at
the same time is ace-high with the
classes. Sometimes one of the leaders
win become obdurate and have to be
promised the postotfice or a position
as guardian of a fling cabinet in the
census bureau. and if he becomes too
obdurate he is given massage by the
driver Of the steam roller.

there is within striking distance a suf

There is terrible wastage of life in
this country, because of the common
neglect of this so important factor in
preparedness. Most of it could be pre-
vented through the bestowaI upon the

pay to the prevention of diseases
which take a lesser toll of child life
than is annually taken by the water
gods. It is one of the ways in which
we show our national lack of a sense

The Harrison federal drug act of
1914, making it unlawful for any per
son not registered under the law to
have opium in his possession, was
given a severe jolt by the United
States supreme court when it ruled that
the law applies only to those who deal
lin the drug and not to those who use
it. Scores Of proposed prosecutions
have been awaiting the court s de-
eision and the majority of them will
not be abandoned Judge Holmes, in
the majority opinion, said it would be
Istraining the powers of the United
States almost to the breaking point to
make it criminal for any person in the
United States to have opium in his
possession unless no other interpreta
ton of the statute were possible. JUS
