great need, for he has just pride in
seeing the state of Washington carry
her full share of the burden of these
troublesome times. The state has
full reason to be proud of her sons
who have gone into the front line of
the country's defenses; our governor
wants the industry of the state like
wise to be no Stacker. He, therefore.
early in the strike of last June, urged
the employers to grant the eight-hour
day, and went so far as to issue a
proclamation in August asking in the
name OF the state that this be DONE
Since that time he has used his in
fluence constantly by tongue and pen,
and in personal conference with en-
ployers. to bring about industrial
peace through the granting of the
shorter workday.
Mr.. Reed and DR.. SuzzallO.
Governor Lister has been ably as
sisted in his efforts to bring about
peace in the lumber woods by Hon.
Mark E. Reed, speaker of the last
house of representatives of the state
legislature, who is also one of the
largest employers of labor in the log
ging industry Of the state, and by Or.
Henry Suzzallo. president of the Uni
versity of Washington, and Chairman
of the State Council of Defense. To
this end Mr.. Reed has used his in
fuence constantly within the organi-
cation of the employing lumbermen,
and from the reports that have occa-
sionally reached the outside, he has
been the center of some mighty
stormy scenes, that only strong
character was capable of weathering.
DR.. Suzzallo came in for a veritable
TRADE Of abuse and threats. but he,
too. like the governor and Mr.. Reed,
stood unfiinchingly behind his guns
until the storm had cleared away and
the right had triumphed.
Finally Success Comes.
Following the lead taken by these
three men last summer, came Secre-
tary Of War Newton D. Baker, with a
request for the eight-hour day in
lumber production; the presidents

BY H. l.. HUGHES.

The most splendid victory that
labor has ever won in the Northwest
is the securing of the eight-hour day
in the great basic industry of lum-
bering.
It was won because labor, and
those who helped labor in this great
achievement, believed that the eight
hour day would not only bring in
dustrial peace in this industry but
that under the shorter workday pro-
ductiOn would be stimulated and in
creased through the conservation CT
the strength and energy of the men
who are engaged in logging and lum-
bering
Labor Must Make Good.
1t is now up to labor to make good
all these claims; not only that by
making good in this respect it may
prove itself entitled to future indus
trial ARRANGEMENTS, but that it may
prove itself worthy Of the confidence
of the men and influences that gave
1t support in this memorable contest
for the shorter workday.
Governor Lister Aids Labor.
There are three men in this state
to whom labor owes a debt of graft
tude for assistance in this splerd did
achievement-I speak of those out
side the ranks of organized labor who
were factors in bringing about the
eight-hour day. Foremost Of these
three is Governor Ernest Lister, who
early last summer took an uncompro-
missing stand for the ESTABLISH. ment
of the eight-hour day in the lumber
ing industry. Governor Lister knows
we'll the conditions under which the
woodsman and the sawmill worker
labor in this rough work which taxes
the strength and endurance OF our
sturdiest manhood, to say nothing Of
it's hazard to life and limb. He be-
lieved that improved sanitary condi-
tions in the camps in which these
men live, and the conservation of
strength that would come with the
shorter workday. would on the whole
result in increased product!on--and
that finally the settlement o. this
question would bring about peace in
this industry at least during the
period of the. war. And the governor

In order to have Victory bread to
eat and not war bread, you may
make bread by any good method you
know best, but you must keep in
mind certain wheat substitute pro-
portions. There is a safe limit to
which we may substitute. Like any
new good thing, we may become so
enthusiastic as to overdo it.
The food administration is asking
that we save one-third of our wheat
supply. We do this in various ways,
first by substituting one-quarter to
one-half of other materials, as oat
and corn meal, barley and oat -four,
or potatoes. In the table below are
the largest proportions for substi-
tutes as found by expert bakers. A
smaller amount or a mixture of sew
eral may be used.

necessary sugar for flavor has
already been put in the yeast starter.
The fat question in yeast breads is
one we may overlook just now with
our attempts to save fat. as it adds
very little to either tenderness or
flavor.
Method OF Mixing.
Use any method which you have
found successful. Below Is a recipe
for sponge method, which saves time
by allowing the yeast to work over
night. 1t also insures a strong
yeasty mixture to begin work on the
heavier meals and fiours which are
added in the morning.

Allow to rise overnight. In the

add the rest of the needed -four, to
make 3h OTIS. altogether.

present wheat substitute breads, the

Mrs. Francis White

Wonewoc relatives and friends
were shocked to learn of the death Of
Mrs. Francis White at Waupaca.
Mrs White, accompanied by two
little boys, sons of neighbors, had
gone about one o'clock in the after
noon to some lots which she owned
about a block and half from her
home, to rake and burn the accumu-
lation of leaves. She had lighted
the leaves in two places, when one
of the little boys called to her that
her dress was on fire. She turned
and reached down and gathered the
burning portion in her hands in an
endeaver to smother the flames, but
they spread and ignited a box of
matches which she had placed in
her apron pocket, and then all her
clothing burst into flames.
Although terribly burned, she
managed with the help of neighbors
who had arrived at the scene of the
accident, to walk her home. She
lived till $50 that evening, and was
conscious and retained all her facili-
ties; when told that she had but
short time to live she gave minute
directions as to the disposition OF
her property, funeral arrangements,
Mr.. and Mrs. White lived in Won
ewoc for several years after their
