strong, if differently worded testi-

preparation for serving a grand spread

developed the fact that, while the
commissary department contained an
amazing aggregation of weinies, pre-
serves, cheese and pickles, there was
not single mouthful of breadstuff OF
any kind or character included there

phone showed the farther fact that
some eighteen dozen rolls and sundry
loaves of bread had been ordered, the
