The idea has been prevalent IN
some circles that the French have
done little or nothing themselves
toward reconstruction. This book
contradicts such thoughts and es-

author convinces without moraliz-

ness in its portrayal of courage.

Wives Slash
H. c. L. By Bak-
ing Your Own
Bread
BY Edward M. Thierry

Chicago Bake your own bread,
Mrs. Housewife. That's the only way
you can cut the cost of bread.
A national campaign, with this as a
slogan, is springing into being AS the
result of the national upheaval IN the
wheat and -four markets.
Bread baked by bakers can't and
won't go down. Bakers say so. Her
bert Hoover concurs. D. P. Chind-
blom, secretary of the American AS
ISOLATION Of the Baking Industry. is
positive of it. So is julius Fleisch-
man, yeast king.
The ake-your-own-bread campaign
is growing out Of a market letter sent
out few days ago by Hulburd, War
rem & Chandler, Chicago grain
brokers.
Hats Off to Winters
Hats of to L. L. Winters of that
firm. He wrote the letter, comment
ing on the tremendous drop in the
price of heat and -four and the fail
ure of bread to decline corresponding
ly. The letter said the only remedy
was for the housewife to return to
the old custom of baking her own
bread.
"The housewife can compete with
the baker," says Winters, land get
her bread much cheaper. But not I'M
less she quits buying few pounds OF
-four. She must buy flour by the
barrel"
So the campaigns slogan is double
barreled- Buy barrel of flour and
bake your own bread!
Flour last year was $16 a barrel
retail and higher during the last few
years as compared to $3.50 pre- war
Now it's about 5000 retail. That's
about IL cents a pound, for there
are 1876 pounds in a barrel of flour.
But if you buy small quantities, say
10 or 12-pound sacks, you pay about
8 ga cents pound!
"The housewife has quit making
bread" says Winters. "Now is the
time for her to start up again.
Flour Four Cents Cheaper!
Bakers tell you--and they're prob.
ably right-that drops in the price OF
4 wheat and -four will not bring the cost
of bread down because labor is high
So the housewife pays an average OF
a fraction under IL cents for pound
loaf of bread. And she ought to be
able to bake her own bread at a cost

Will Spend
$2O,OOO,OOO to
Save Europe'S
Childhood

Paris-Two years after the armis.
tice, the American Red Cross today
isflstill -Brothering Is war-stricken
European nations, helping to clean up
the human refuse of the war.
Over a thousand American nurses,
doctors and relief workers wearing
Red Cross insignia, are scattered
throughout Europe ministering, in
many cases to the same people against
whom they were fighting in 1918. 1t
is estimated that around 100000 re-
ceived help last month in Austria
Hungary and Poland alone.
At the general headquarters in
Paris, the organization holds itself
ready to answer the call for help from
any part of Europe. When thousands
were rendered homeless by the earth
quake in Italy, the American Red
Cross rushed quantities of provisions
and corps of skilled doctors to the
devastated Carrera district. When
General Deniken's offensive collapsed
in South Russia and some two million
refugees crowded into Crimea, the Red
Cross saw to it that they did not
starve.
In devastated France one and half
million francs worth of provisions
were distributed free this last year.
An equal amount was handed over to
the needy in Eastern and Central Eu-
rope.
In fact, all Europe has formed the
habit of looking toward the Amer
lean relief organizations to direct
"first aid' measures, no matter where
the catastrophe of suffering may be.
Thanks to it and the Hoover Relief
Commission, America has gained the
reputation of the worlds great altruist
and philanthropist.
With the 1921 appropriation OF $780,
100000 already assured for next
years work here, Red Cross chiefs
are planning to concentrate on child
welfare throughout the continent, thus
helping to stave off the i'll effects OF
Metaphysical and mental-upon the
coming generation.
The Red Cross plans to put $50
trained units in the field to look after
the physical welfare of 100000 chill
dren whom the American Relief AS
sociation is feeding Up to the. present
the Red Cross has been able to go into
this work on a limited scale only.

Gentlemen, Here
is Your Chance
Suit of Clothes
for $3.50

Chicago-Cleaners and dyers will re-
tire from business if Americans take
kindly to the paper suits, overcoats,
suspenders and other garments, a
shipment of which just arrievd in Chi
cago from Germany and Austria. All
one needs ofreshen up his clothes is
wad of artgum or an eraser.
One of these suits, made entirely of
paper, from the buttons to the price
tag, sells for SIS crowns, or about $3.50
in American money. A large shipment
of the paper goods is on its way to
Milwaukee.
In addition to the garments for men
and women, there are aprons of all
kinds, table covers, deliberately en-
broideed, curtains, hoods, Irvine, col
lars and cuffs. The clothing is treated
with some sort of shellac that is sup
posed to make it waterproof. Other
wise a man wearing paper suit who
was caught out in heavy rain would
return without any clothing.
1t is not thought the paper clothing
will make much of hit with American
buyers, especially at this season OF
the year, but the shipment was sent
over to show that the Germans and
Austrians are still on the job and that
the people over there have something
to wear.

Such is Life

Versatility is the secret of married
happiness" exclaims Mrs. Adrian Ross
noted British writer.
To express it in palmer language,
don't be always meeting him with a
rolling pin when he strays home late.
Be versatile. Sometimes use a base
ball bat or chunk of coal, if fortunate
enough to have coal.
Don't dampen your husbands ar
dor by declining to go to the theatre
with him when he suggests it," con-
tinues Mrs. Ross.
When he brings home candy and
flowers for you don't tell him that
he had better spent the money on a
new pair of shoes for himself"
Here's another brilliant gem of an
idea:
"You must be unselfishly selfish by
spending more money on your own
clothes"
In other words don't be tightwad
with your husbands money.
In more other words: get inside of
the gladdest glad rags.
Some rather thoughtless persons
may imagine the above is to present
as handsome appearance before ones
husband as other danes do.
But that is only part of the answer.
If you spend all your husbands pay
envelope on yourself he can't spend
it on any other person
Don't be tired and worn out in the
evening when your husband comes
home" advises the writer.
Better let the work alone until he
comes home. Thus you will feel more
inclined to the theatre party, the dance
or another frolic, and there'll be some
thing for friend husband to do.
1t goes without saying that the wife
will not be as tired if she carefully
leaves all the homework for the hus-
bands to tackle.
The neat little trick in the latter
arrangement is that when the husband
has to stay home of evenings to do
the sweeping and ironing he can't be
running around to poker parties and
things like that.

Launch New Plan
for Soviet in
Germany

| Berlin ermany's "Neukommunis-
ten"-new communists, as the ex-
IRENE left of the Independent party is
called the Halle convention-want to
start putting Moscow principles into
practice in Germany.
They believe with Sinowjew, Rus
sian agitator and demagogue that
they can get dictatorship of the
proletariat and soviet regime in
Germany. And, their leaders say, they
are prepared to undertake the fight at
an early date. AS this is written, the
new communists are busying them
selves with the task of selling hide
pendent party treasures and trying to
get control of the party organs. They
started in Immediately after the Halle
convention, grabbed the party paper
in Halle, "Das Hallesche Volksrcht,"
threw out the right-wing editors and
put in Moscow disciples. They like
wise sent force of strong-arm young
sters to the central office of the indie
pendent party here to seize party
documents. A courageous night
Waterman drove them off. This is
merely the first step in the pro-Mos-
cowites fight.
They call themselves Independents
still, just as the right wingers do. But
they propose to get the party machin-
cry, especially the party organs like
the influential "Freiheit" here under
their control Thereafter, according
to their ideas, they will be ready for
their battle against their enemy, the
capitalists"
If one takes the left-wingers' talk
seriously, one can picture a dire and
dreadful winter in Berlin and other
sections of Germany. But, the truth
of the matter as seen by careful OBJ
servers probably is not as black-or
as red-as the new communists paint
things.
They are regarded as strong enough
to undertake some reign of terror at
various points and times. But, on the
whole, their strength is everywhere
estimated as too small to upset the
present order of things. Breitscheid of
the right wing, for instance, foresees
that the reds will attempt to put
through their terroristic program, but
he adds confidently that the moder-
ates will have their innings directly
afterward
The creation of new communist
group in Germany has not the dire
significant that many persons would
attribute to it.
American authorities here are in
clined to take this view of the sitma-
ton namely: THAT the left wing
formation merely separates the sheep
from the goats; 2-the creation of a
party favoring force and terror is not
new thing, for the persons who now
cast their lot with Moscow are the
people who have always preached
terror and practised it when they had
a chance.
And, above all, is the general spirit
of the German worker. He has
reached the point where things go
little more smoothly for him than for
the last few years. Unemployment
has decreased slightly since the first
of September. The German workers
as whole want sanity and sound con-
ditions rather than the doubtful ex-
pertinent of Moscowism.
Admissions of even the demagogue
Sinowjew that Russia's internal plight
is bad have given the worker food for
thought.

England SEXES
Sim Fein Funds

London-England's most paralyzing
blow at the Sim Fein was directed at

The office declared there was a
marked cessation of Sim Fem activity
following bank raids, in which records
and funds were located. Steps have
been taken to choke the supply of
money from America also, the office
said.
A fund of $2,995,64 was shown to be
on deposit in New York. R The Irish
Republic had difficulty in raising
money in Australia, a captured docu-
ment saying. despite large sums re-
ported to have been raised in Australia
only IT'S pounds have been sub
cribed."
The Sim Fem fund for the six
months ending December 81, 1920, was
shown to total 204,291 pounds.
Art O'Brien, secretary of the Irish
self-determination league declared
British raiders seized 10000 pounds
from one bank, but that the amount
was made good to the Sim Fem by the
banker who had the funds in charge.
