Security Cement Used in
Construction of Bakery

The same firm that supplied the ce-
ment for the Cumberland Valley
bridge across the Susquehanna river
was awarded the contract of sup
plying the cement for the new Stand
ard bakery. Known as the Security
brand of Portland cement, it has been
on the market since 1908. Thousands
of barrels of the cement have since
been used, and its reputation and re-
liability firmly established.
Security is regularly used by many
of the largest and most critical users

THE SCIENCE OF
BAKING BREAD
Master Baker of Standard Bak-
ing Company's New Plant
Tells How 1t Is Done

Mothers, sisters, wives, you who are
Mothers. sisters. daughters. wives,
you who are famed for the
baking of bread and you who
would learn the best method of
so doing, herewith are given a few
simple facts about scientific baking
which are authentic and instructive.
The facts were obtained from ]. ]. Horn,
master baker and superintendent of
baking plant of the Standard Baking
Company at Tenth and Market streets.
The scientific methods used at the
new plant are the last word in eftlci-
ency. and only once during the entire
process, from the time the flour is
dumped from the sack to the time IL is
tribution, does the human hand touch
the materials, and then the human
hand is covered with clean white gloves.
The dough-" says Mr.. Horn, must be
properly matured, else it will not have
the right flavor. When you say that it
must be properly matured, you say il
cessful bread making lies in permitting
the dough to attain to its proper con-
sistency, and therefore bread cannot be
baked in n minutes time. 1t is the
kneading that makes the bread white
and fiaky, and milk may be employed
in connection with the baking. Pure in
greuIentS are assured by the laboratory
which is installed in the new plant, and
all ingredients will be tested and their
purity aScertained before they are used.

enene used and gliadene, making what
is known as gluten, the starchy sub

hesiveness; the flour likewise contains
starch and ash. Into the kneading ma
chine is put granulated sugar. table
salt, malt extract, pure lard, pure yeast,
and sometimes mush, all before the
dough itself is thrown in. The above
ingredients are employed at the time
of kneading.

that the proportion of water and flour

Chicago, Illinois, whose machinery is
being used by the largest and most

chimes represents the latest improved
type of dough- mixing machinery; a
machine of extraordinary strength
and weight (weighing $4,000 pounds),
and is operated at a very high speed
for the purpose of developing the
gluten contained in the flour as much
as possible. the result of which is
said to be a dough of finer grain and
flavor, besides a much whittier loaf of
bread than is possible to obtain from

BAKING PAINTED CARS

\ process has been patented by
which a railway car can be thoroughly
painted, inside and out, in a fraction
of the time usually required. The
car is first given a priming coat and
put in a drying oven which has tenn
perature of 250 degrees Il. After dry
ing for three hours, it is removed and
painted. Another three-hour period
of baking follows, after which the car
is ready for y second coat. This pro-
cess is repeated until the car has not
only been painted, but the necessary
letters are also placed on the sides
and it is vanished within. The length
of time required depends upon the
number of coats that are given and
the quickness with which they arc ap-
piled. - Popular Science Monthly.

ORANGE PROSPERITY.

Religion, Bigotry, Hatred, Ran
cor, and intolerance is necessary
for the political and material
prosperity of the Orangemen in
Ireland. Intolerance among the
Orangemen is as marked now as
it was when the shedding of blood
seemed to be part of the Orange
mems religious service. The an
tagonism of the Orange faction in
everything that concerned Catho-
lie prosperity. is part of the Or
angemen's view Of life. Hatred
of Catholicism and antagonism to
Irish independence has meant
bread and butter to the Orange
men in the centuries that have
passed. The Ascendency of the
Orange faction is due to the sub
sidized manner in which it has
been treated by the government.

be educated out of all that makes
for his prosperity or forced to the

WHAT 1T MIGHT DISCOVER.

Among the recommendation of the
K. of c. Commission of Inquiry into
the causes of religious prejudice was
one urging that the members of the
K. of G. subscribe for five or six
Catholic papers, and, when they had
finished reading these papers, circu
late them among their mont Catholic
friends and neighbors.
The Monitor Of Newark, N. j., be.
lieves that such a recommendation is
too general. 1t asks: "Why can not
this important K. of c.. commission
take more specific action regarding the
Catholic press? Why can not this
commission proceed to have census
of the circulation of Catholic papers
among the Knights? The information
might be readily obtained. The State
Deputy in each state, by sending out
letter of inquiry to the Grand
knight of each council, could secure
the desired knowledge. Possibly II
might be found that far from subscrib
ing to five or six Catholic papers
many of the Knights do not subscribe
to one Catholic weekly"

Among the fifty-seven varities
of syndicate letters which T. P.
O'Connor has been sending to
American newspapers, not one ref

that it is impossible for young
Irishmen to leave Ireland at the

entered into an agreement with
steamship companies by which it
sought to have the odium placed
upon the steamship companies,
while the government might clear
its skirts of any accusation that it
took part in the scheme to keep
Irishmen at home. 1t has been
published far and wide that Ire
land was safe from consumption
through the efforts of the Irish
party, who refused to say word
in explanation of why the Irish
party consents to the isolation of
ireland from the rest of the world.

The wife of an Irish recruit has
taken up the cudgel against the
practice now in vogue in English
training camps where Catholic
soldiers are continually annoyed
by persons distributing literature
of all kinds, attacking the Catho-
lie religion. This good woman
declares that pressing invitations
are issued to Catholic soldiers to
attend services elsewhere than in
their own church or under their
own chaplain, if there be one.
The matter has been drawn to
the attention of the members of
the Irish party. No redress has
been given. To undermine the
faith and destroy the morals of
the Irish people, has been fav-
ored political diversion in Great
Britain for centuries past. The
government should chuckle over
the manner in which it has been
able to delude some credulous
young Irishmen to heed i'll the
interests of the only enemy that

Huerta has passed-what a re-
lief his death must be to the adj
ministration. The preconceived
notions of the president regarding
Huerta have been responsible for
more trouble in connection with

thing else that has happened.
President Wilson declared Hu-
erta responsible for Madero's
death, 1t may be proper to state
that Mr.. Wilson would sooner
have a maurauder more to his

rama. Whatever else may be
said of Huerta certain it is he was
no coward. 1t cost this govern
ment a few million dollars and
some American lives to find it
out.
Huerta did not persecute the
church. He died fortified in the

bic the influence of the Catholic
church in Mexico. The shame of
it alive seem powerless to do

DUBLIN NO EXCEPTION.

Dublin is no exception to the
rule that scoundrels may be found
in every city. Everyone realizes
that exceptional conditions have
been created in Ireland because
OF the war, and that it is natu-
raj consequence of war which
everybody expects that manufac-
tured products are very much
more expensive than usual, and
that there would be a general adj
vance in prices. This however,
furnishes no excuse to the Dublin
milk dealers who have boosted
their prices to unheard of figures.
They seem not to be satisfied
with the prices of 10 cents a quart
already beyond established rec
ords. The poor and the children
OF the poor are the sufferers. Milk
is an essential article of diet to
them. The death rate of children
in Dublin is deplorably high. The
prices established during the win
ter were allowed to continue all
last summer, but no protest was
made. An additional increase
marks the present price of milk in
Dublin at &c per cent higher than
it was at the beginning of the
war. BY law and custom, the
precedent for robbing the poor
seems firmly established on Irish
soil.
That the defenseless may have
extracted from them their last
coin, to the last penny passes
without comment in the Irish
capital. There is no reasonable
excuse why Dublin, the capital
of one of the greatest agricultural
countries in Europe, should in
crease its infant mortality with
out attempting to regulate the
price of food and food products
as is done in other European cit
les.

ings of the Catholic Church. No God,
no reference to the salutary influence
of Christ and absolute Indifference to
the claims of the Church have caused
the ruin of Protestant, as we'll as Cath
Ollie youth. The Jail statistics show
this. OF the 1913 Catholic prisoners, 113
are between the ages of 81 and rs, 1856
are between the ages of 26 and 80, 1863
are from the ages of SO and upwards.
And all but So of them were brought
up in Goddess schools. The Church
never had the opportunity of reaching
them with her Catholic educational
methods. Right here it is we'll to con.
slider the conclusions of well known
Methodist, Bird Coler, late Borough
President of Brooklyn and Comptroller
OF New York city. He saw the hor-
rible conditions brought about by the
public school system of the great city
and has thus summed up the facts:
THE public schools in this country"
he says, ARE not making for righteous
ness. There isn't an educator of any
note in this country, who hasn't ad-
mitted this. The metropolis of this
country is thug-ridden. 1t has devel.
oped a new type of criminal, q con-
scfenceless, fearless young brute, who
murders for hire and recognizes no
moral accountability and no social OBJ
legation. 'Gunmen' and murder procur-
ers have had their activities exposed
In court. There is a similar state of
affairs in Paris. Probably it is a lit.
tie worse there. In Paris and New
York there are Goddess public schools.
The relationship of the Goddess school
to the growing viciousness among our
people did not come to me as a re-
ligious man." Thus it is that the par
ish school system is stemming the tide
Of lawlessness and crime. But 80
graduates of the system which. gradu.
ates thousands each year is a notable
and eloquent tribute to their efficiency.
Figures do not lie, but liars do fig
