are not very tall but were built in the
early days and are quite famous. We
went through some of the old cathedrals

had back in 18th and 18th century.
They were sure some sights t. see. Saw
the kings and queen s horses, harness
and beautiful carriages. We paraded
in front of tho king and queen two
times since we arrived across. Can
not tell you of my voyage across as we
are not allowed to.
"How is the weather out there? The
weather is pretty good here but gets
kind Of chilly at night. Well, guess I
must close for this time. With best
wishes to all.
"Your cousin,
"-S. A. Sdgwick.'

Save the flour they need

FNOUGH flour is wasted
T. annually m dusting on the
bread boards alone in our
homes to feed millions of our
soldiers!
A single pound of flour
saved every month in each of
our 2O,0O0,0O0 homes would
mean an annual saving of
100000 barrels of flour.
And every barrel saved is
daily food for 800 of our fight
ing men.
Do the women of America
know this?
The national need today is
wheat. More and more of our
men are going to the front,
Wheat must be had for them,
for our millions al home, and
still more millions abroad who
need our help.

Stop the waste of bread in

much bread as you can cat and

Order your bread regularly

as will be sold and eaten.
The bakers-in co.opera-

making a real and definite saw
ing of wheat. They can make
100000 loaves with far less
waste than 100000 homes can
make five loaves each. The
flour wasted by unsuccessful
