Without 1t she might have broken down altogether. With it she should have pulled herself together. But she didn't.

WAR OVER BREAD
Consumers Kick At 9 Cent Loaves
Grocers Must Have 2 Cent Profit.

The war with Germany is not the
only war going on at this time An
napolis has war of her own A
Bread War.
Bakers are asking grocers who sell
their bread seven cents loaf, but the
get-rich-quick, don't-advertise Grocers
refuse to sell the loaves at a one
cent profit, but say they must have two
cents profit, and the consumer (as is
usually the case) has to pay it.
1t is now Scent loaf of bread or
nothing.
Heretofore, the grocers have only
made one cent profit on a loaf of
bread, but these are war times and
war prices are for atwo-cent profit on
a war loaf of bread
The war bread went into effect on
Monday, bakers putting out 16-
ounce loaf to retail at s cents (but
the grocers want 9 and will not take
less) to take the place of the scent,
10-ounce loaf
How long the 9-cent price is going
to hold out is up to the consumer. who
in other cities are boycotting bread
not priced at cents.
Some Annapolitans have put the To-
cal bread question up to the gov
ernment and individuals have gone

investigated. 1t is claimed one-cent

WORK OF TRAINING
NOW IN FULL BLAST
At Hundreds Of Camps And Train
ing Stations
SIXTEEN In ALL
Not All Aviation Fields Finished
Where COOl-Headed Young Men
Are Taught To Fight In Air.

The beginning of winter finds the
work of training going on in full blast
in a hundred camps and stations.
Not far from half of the total num-
Der OF men training are encamped in
the big National Army cantonments
In these the United States has 16 new
cities. each as large as Sacramento or
New Britain, or Davenport or Macon.
Sixteen camps, nearly as big as the
cantonments, but not built so durably.
are housing the National Guard divl-
sions
Two hundred and fifty thousand men
have Joined the regulars since the war
broke out. There are seventeen regu-
lar army stations and camps being
used for the training of these recruits
Seventeen stations are engaged in
training men for the Navy, and ma
rines are being turned out in three
more.
Not all the aviation fields have been
hnished-but in a dozen of them cool
headed young men are being taught
to fight in the air.
Nine camps have just rounded off
the second increment of officers for
the Reserve Corps
Five medical camps are in opera
ton, and three camps for engineers
All of the larger camps have been
built in the last six months. The big
gest of them, the National Army can
tonments, were built in three months
at a total cost of $150,OOO,OOO. Only
a little over twice as much was re-
quired to build the Panama Canal
and that took ten years
Something between six hundred and
seven hundred million of feet of lum-
Der went into the National Army can
tonments. The figure for all the army
camps is about one billion feet
In population the camps range from
300 to $4,000 The men in a flying
camp may know one another as men
knew one another in a small college.
One of the large cantonments, on the
other hand, contains more men than
can be crowded into the Polo Grounds
or Comiskey Park
A good average crowd for a World
Series game is 10000. Such a crowd
is enough to swamp a half dozen car
lines All the men in one of the Ma
tional Army cantonments would make
a. crowd half again as large
Living conditions in the camps may
not be quite up to the top of the high
American standard. But it can
safely be said that no large army of
soldiers was ever housed so comfort
ably before. There will be no freez-
ing this winter Four Of the conton
ments situated fartherest north have
steam heat The rest have to put UP
with hot air systems. But an Amer
ican Army spent winter at VALLEY
Forge once without even hot air
system.
