Bathing Suits Were
A Minus Quantity

Chicago, Aug. IA bevy of joyous
young women, clad in coat Of tan
and a smile apiece, burst into the early
mornino air today and jumped into the
lake, along the north shore, establish
ing the limit for nudity among WON.
en- bathers.
Police Chief Healy, already surfeit-
ed with reports Of women bathing clad
only in kimonos, scanty trunks or wat
er wings, announced the limit had been
reached.
His orders to patrolmen were:
"Run 'em in. And if they haven t
got anything on to wear to the sta
ton, that's their affair."
Venus arising out of the sea would
have looked tame beside the young god
desses, north shore residents reported.
About nine tenths Of Chicago's he
population set their alarm clocks for a
q. m. tomorrow and beach ears prom
ised to be crowded.

Irregular Prices
and a Dead Market

New York. Aug. THE New York
Evening Suns financial review today
said:
Transactions at the opening and
throughout the first hour of business
were light in volume on an irregular
movement of prices, changes as rule
being confined to small fractions.
Motor shares were little changed,
with heaviness in Willys-Overland.
There were few offerings in any part of
the list. Rails were neglected and the
fractions were not affected by the lat
est strike developments.
Early afternoon dealings were as
quiet as those in the forenoon with the
same monotonous irregular price move

Ten Victims Yesterday, Seven
from Drowning - Relief
Promised Tomorrow

Chicago, Aug. 7.-Another day of
heat suffering struck the middle west

heat wave Sunday is ten. Seven were
drowned and three overcome. Half a
million persons, it was estimated, went
swimming here yesterday.
Some of the beaches had temporary
hospitals set up on the sand and these
were kept busy not only in reviving
persons rescued from drowning, but al
so in helping victims of slight heat
prostrations.
Five other cities reported high tenn
peratures. 1t was 96 at Concordia,
Kan, Cincinnati, Dodge, Des Moines,
Iowa, and st. Paul, MINI. 1t was a
trifle cooler on the border. In FL

today. The fleeing Turks have now been
entirely cleared from the Katia- Una

Same I'm Minneapolis.

Minneapolis, Mimi, Aug. with
flour advancing 20 cents barrel dur
ing last week, the price of bread was in
grave danger of soaring, local bakers
declared today. Flour sells at $6.75 a
barrel today as compared with s6.05 u
week ago.
The increase in the price Of wheat
during the past seven days is respon-
sible for the rise. While there was no
advance in the price Of grain today the
high mark Of $l.4l bushel for Septem-
Der wheat was maintained. Last week
the grain sold for 1927.
With every cent advance in wheat
flour increases five cents barrel. If
wheat clinIbs Ii cher bakers will either
increase the cost of the ordinary 12
ounce loaf or make smaller loaves they
announced.

Increase Seems Certain.

Chicago, Aug. 7.-Porspscts of a gem
eral increase in the price of bread
throughout the country were considered
today by Chicago bakers.
Startling advance in the price Of flour
is responsible. This followed sensa-
tional advances in the wheat market
due to black rust and storm and heat
damage throughout the northwest.
"Flour has advanced $3.50 barrel
in the last month"; said John W. Eek

HEROES OF FIELD KITCHEN
Ranked as Noncombatants, Men Who

Facing Death.

Often, when the death struggle is at

Ing mans waste of energy and strength
is repaired through the medium of that
unique vehicle, the field kitchen. No
one who has not campaigned with
troops enjoying the comforts of the
field kitchen can appreciate how much
1t makes for gustatory satisfaction,
and how it promotes that elusive and
highly important fighting factor-mo-
rale.
One winters night in Poland, after
spending the day watching wave upon
wave Of gray-coated soldiers roll I'D
and break against the Russian trenches
and entanglements, was making my
way back to a field hospital where I
was a guest when my eyes caught the
twinkle of a long row of lights that
wavered above the road. The lights
were moving slowly but steadily
toward the battle front. Soon the crate

Education in South China.

Literacy among the people of South
China is considerably greater than
among those of the North. Claim is
advanced in Canton that nearly all the
children of Cantonese parentage, ex-
cept those of the large boat popula-
ton, receive sufficient schooling to en-
able them to learn to read, whereas in
the North of China 1t is unusual to
find a family the children of which
are all placed in school, The native
newspaper is read by a considerably
larger number than the list of SUBJ
scribers to that paper would make it
appear. In and about Shanghai pa
pers are sold two and three times
over. Collectors go about gather
ing up the newspapers of the previous
days issue, redistributing them among
the lower class of population. 1t is
said that they are then further dis
tributed by being sent out to the vii
lagos and country sections, where they
are sold for fraction of cent apiece.
