IN price while the larger one has not.
In buying the larger loaf a person
pays 10 cents for one pound of
bread. But in purchasing the small
er loaf one pay cents for loaf that
weighs thTee-qUaTters of a pound, or
u ounces. Hence, in buying the
smaller loaf of bread one pays at the
rate Of 6 cents for II ounces, 1 cent
for ounces, or 8 cents for one
pOund-16 ounces.
Therefore, if l was to advise the
general public on the question Of

buy the smaller loaf of bread be-
cause, in so doing, they pay cents
a pound for their bread, whereas in
buying the larger loaf they pay 10

MIR. Joel D. Hunter, Chief Probation
Officer of the Juvenile Court: I was
very interested in your reply to Mr.
A. Bell, who complained in The Day
Book of the way a probation officer
treated one of the courts charges.
I note the child was placed in the

AS this is a sectarian home, l should
like to know whether the juvenile
court has a right to place a child in
such a home?

all-state collegiate quarterback hon
ors. This fact had a deciding influence
In his election as captain OF next sea
sons varsity, but behind this fame
IS his personality and qualities OF
leadership. The players believe In
him and say that they have a better
morale when he is at quarter.
In 1916 Coldiron was ineligible for
varsity football playing but was a
strong man on Coach Gallagher
