While these recipes restrict the use
Of wheat flour and require the use
of substitutes, they encourage initia'

Experiments made by the sea bakers
with various combinations Of ingre

war bread. and also have shown some
interesting economical results.

gress shall make no laws respecting

1t was decreed that the new flag Of
the Stars and Stripes must be and
remain unsullied by religious persecu-

itself no room is given in America for
discord between Catholicism and
Americanism, between Catholic faith
and civic and political allegiance.
"Some twenty years ago an illus
