Your Loaf of Bread.

Here's the thing that makes Mr.. Av-
erage Consumer believe some sort OF
government regulation for certain COM
modities might be good thing:
For the week ending September %
16-ounce loaf OF bread was selling in
Pleasantville, n. j., for 6 cents. AT
the same time loaf OF this size was
selling at Miami, Okla, for Is cents,
and at Rock Falls, ILL.,, and Eastport,
Me-, and Laramie, Wyo,, and num-
Der Of other places at the same price.
During the week previous 20 cents WAS
charged for loaf of this size ut Para
gould, Ark. But in Eagle Pass, Tex,
1t sold for tx cents, and in Lansing,
Mich, and Houston, Tex, for s cents
At the same time 14-ounce loaf sold
for 6 cents in Lock Haven, Pa, and for
10 cents in Jefferson, Iowa, and Cor
wallis, Wash.
These are all official figures, gathered
by and for the government, and in the
official statement in which they are in
cluded many other places are men.
toned, all tending to show that the
price OF bread is not now being made
strictly in accord with the price of flour.
Bread prices are not different from pri-
ces OF other things. When change
from the standard is made, the reasons
that justify or explain the change are
made an excuse to carry the thing to
extremes.-Joplin Globe.

Till My Boy Comes Home.

Till My Boy Comes Home.
MY boy has gone to the war today,
I've sent him this very morn,
And I've hung this dear old flag OF mine
For him, my own first born.
I've mended it here and I've patched
it there,
And I've added full many star,
My flag will fly till my boy comes home,
Till my boy comes home from the
war.
In its red 1 can see the flush on his
cheek
AS we kissed and he marched away
i can see in its white his soul SO bright
AS bright as the dawn OF that day.
can see in it's blue his eyes so blue,
And the whole is our guiding star.
I'll fly that flag till my boy comes
home,
Till my boy comes home from the
war.
have n flag, and / have boy,
And live in the land OF the free.
I've something to give that Freedom
might live:
That something is quite all to me.
My boy might be gone for many day,
Way off in the old land afar,
But I'll fly my flag till my boy comes
home,
Till my boy comes home from the
war.-William Ii. Barter.
