Regarding the political outlook for

There Is every reason for believ-

the people will not care to repeat.
MY sincere belief, based upon per-
Isonal observation. Is that the people
are overwhelmingly In favor OF tbs
league OF nations" said Mr.. Cum

satisfied with the covenant a II

confidence that the people will re

proposed bridge across the Salt River
just north of Lehi has been completed
and a report compiled estimating the
construction of a modern bridge at
about $4,000 The work was done
under the direction of Superintendent
Sharp, of the Salt River Valley In
dian reservation. and included pro-
file diagram of the river bed at the
proposed crossing.

cl1D and residents on the reservation

Cured expenses. The surveyors re-
port has gone forward and it is Mr..
Sharps belief that the bill authorizing
the expenditure of the necessary funds
for the construction of the bridge will
come up before congress about the
first Of next month.
The need of a bridge across the Salt
river at this point has long been felt
and local citizens behind the movement
are confident that the necessary APP
preparation will be made at an early
date The bridge, as proposed, VIII

BAKED 4 LIFETIME
MAN To BAKE HERE
AS AID To WOMEN

In order that the women of Phoenix
may bake better bread. cakes, biscuits
and the innumerable other things which
11ne out of an oven. Prof. G. S. Stark,
has been baking all his life is in
mix, He is at Talbot and Hub
where, starting this morning
h. deliver daily lectures on the
art king His program for today
calls /, serving of hot biscuits and
French drip coffee starting at 10
o'clock.
Tomorrow he will lecture from to 4
p. M, explaining the kind of flour to
use in both bread and cake, and how to
overcome the many difficulties in doing
cake and bread work in high attitudes.
Many of the things which Professor
Stark does seem almost impossible to
the average housewife. For instance he
demonstrates the making of jelly roll
and marshmallow frosting in ten
minutes without using eggs. He also
demonstrated the making of bread in
four hours from the time the sponge
is set.
Stark has been demonstrating baking
for the Majestic Range company for
is years, during which time he has
covered every state in the union and
his fourth visit here in the past seven
years.
On Saturday he will deliver lee
ture on meats using illustrated charts
showing the choice cuts. Domestic
science teachers and classes are invited
to be present at the lectures.
