SPRING OPENING
At D. ". ADAMS CO.
Curtains Drawn Today
on Formal Presenta-
ton of Spring Modes

To exclaim, to marvel, to admire is
simple enough but to actually describe
all the wonderful things at the D. w.
Adams Co. spring opening is an as
signment far beyond the ken or the
pen Of the Journals advertising man
TO whom the duty falls. Words, mere
the artistic heights Of fancy achieved
by this progressive department store
in its annual event.
With such feelings of utter inability
the Journal man was taken through
the Adams store on Tuesday to view
the last minute preparations for the
annual spring opening today.
What amounted to personally con-
Quoted trip of the store and a first
hand examination of the wonderful de-
partments began at the south window
where Ralph Brown was busy with
one of his most attractive window
trims.
The window, done in Peacock blue,
foretells the color scheme for the en-
tire south half of the street floor. while
the entire north is decorated in yell
low with a plentiful sprinkling of pot
ted jonquilS throughout. And this same
color scheme is carried out on all three
floors, from daylight basement to mill
linery and garment departments.
Standing at the main entrance and
viewing the store in its entirety one
wonders at the elaborateness and plen-
tifulness of everything. With all that
is being said about shortages of mate
rails, the scarcity of dyes and trim
mings and buttons and even hooks and
eyes it seemed impossible that so much
and such a great variety could be as
sembled
This sentiment was voiced to the
proprietor who came back with rap
id fire answer that this was in fact
just the aim in mind: ITO give the
people of Augusta more abundant
styles and variety than ever before
and at prices which make you forget
that there is war;" How well this
object has been achieved will best be
judged by a visit to the store. War
time economy is the key note with ap-
parently no sacrifice Of style, fancy
materials or colorings.
Passing from counter 10 counter on
the street floor one finds the stylish
new necllware with its magic touch
Of spring and wonderful adaptability
to weave new charm over any waist
or costume with which it is worn. Then
there is smart new hosiery for springs
low shoes, stylish new displays in
gloves of all colors, lengths and ma
terials ribbons galore in Roman,
stripes, Dredens, plain and MORE eff
fects and finally. or perhaps more cor
rectly primarily, the undermuslins

ciate. Crepe de chine and wash satin,

According to stories which have
found their way into town from Ia
coma lakes. where several Augusta ice
fishermen and a number of others went
last Saturday night, for the sake OF
getting q few pickerel, trout or other
fish that might rise to their lines, the
luck of the fishermen for the following
day was not of a kind that tended to
bring forth many recitals regarding
their catch One gentleman who was
out there reports that there were more
fishermen than fish in evidence, and
that while an Auburn party landed a
trout which weighed about a pound
and quarter the catch Of fish for the
day in general was not highly satisfac-
tory. One Augusta party Of two is said
to have had unusually hard luck by
upsetting it's pail of live bait after one
fisherman had landed one pickerel

ORIGIN OF BREAD IS UNKNOWN
Interesting to Trace the "Staff Of Life'
In Its Course Throughout
the Ages.

The origin of wheat is lost In an.
tiquity. Even the original home Of the
cereal plants Of which bread is being
made Is not known, oil the researches
and hypothesis notwithstanding.
Where wheat, spelt. rye. barley, back.
wheat, etc, first offered man their
grainy ears for food Is an unsolyed
problem.
But that originally bread was not
roasted or baked, as moderns prepare
II, but eaten as dough or paste, may
be inferred from its relation with the
word "broth," both of these words be-.
Ing derived from the root "breowan."
"bru," to brew. In all probability It
was originally the boiled coarse ,neal
with nothing added to 1t but salt. The
leavening and baking of the bread was
a later development. The origin OF
these processes Is n matter of spccu.
latlon; but SO much Is certain: that
baking preceded the ~leavening of the
bread that causes 1t to rise also that
the original form of the bread was not
the loaf, but a kind Of thin. fiat cake
like the matzoths. or unleavened bread
Of the Jews. or the tortillas of the
Mexicans. Like these. It was probe.
bly, roasted upon intensely heated fiat
stones.
With the discovery Of the leaven the
fiat cake increased In height until 1t
assumed the form Of our loaf.
