Somebody declared the other day
that a left-handed second baseman
never had been seen in major league
company, 1t is evident that Billy
Greenwood. who played second base
for the Baltimore association club,
has been forgotten by some OF the
baseball historians. Greenwood was
left handed thrower. yet he never
was handicapped IN making rapid in
held plays He compared favorably
with other star second basemen In
those days and also was a good bats

FAT THAT SHOWS
SOON DISAPPEARS

Prominent fat that comes and stays
where it is not needed is a burden; a
bindrance to activity, a curb upon
pleasure. You can take off the fat
where it shows by taking after each
meal and at bedtime, one Marmola
Prescription Tablet. These little tab
lets are as effective and harmless as
the famous prescription from which
they take their name. Buy and try a
case today. Your druggist sells them
at rs cents or if you prefer you may
write direct TO the Marmola Co, s64
Woodward Ave, Detroit, Mich. You
can thus say goodbye to dieting, eX-
erciSe and fat.-Adv.

PRICE Of BREAD
GIVEN BOOST

At the meeting held in Indianapolis
this week of the Advisory Board OF
the Indiana Association Of the Baking
Industry and the Food Administration
1t was demonstrated that the prices
bakers have been obtaining for bread
was causing them to operate at loss.
Both -four and -four substitutes are
very scarce and very high.
On account of using substitutes,
bread yields are reduced. all Of which
adds TO the cost of the manufacture
OF bread.
These facts being amply proven,
the following schedule Of prices was
considered fair to the baker, dealer
and consumer.
One pound loaf, unwrapped, whole
sale, SIC; retail. 10c.
One pound loaf, bakery wrapped,
Wholesale, &c: retail, 10c.
One and onehalf pound loaf, unwrap-
ped. wholesale. 1Sc; retail. 15c.
One and onehalf pound loaf, bakery
wrapped wholesale. 13hc; retail, 15c.
Instructions from Mr. Banard are to
the effect that the prices above or
below this schedule will be considered
as unfair practice, and must be
promptly dealt with.
The sale of bread and other wheat
products, at reduced prices, in order
to draw trade on other articles on
which long profits are made, was or
dered stopped. Using cheap bread as
an advertisement increases the con-
sumption Of bread and must not be
tolerated. as the flour shortage is
very acute. and only by cooperation
can the people OF Indiana be supplied
with bread until the new crop of
wheat Is available.
The County Food Administrator is
advised to deal promptly. that the
time for excuses from the bakers is
past.
Conforming with these regulations.
the wholesale and retail price on
bread will be advanced on Monday &C
cordingly.

Food Administrator
