NOTES ON THE PELICAN-CAL-
DERARO GAME.

Considering it his first start. Hotard
pitched a good game His great
trouble was his Witness. Ching was
particularly good in keeping the Cal
deraro players close to the bases when
they did get on.
Lefty Mckinney is showing up bet
ter around the initial sack and also
seems to be recovering his batting
eye. Nc drove a dandy to right field
in the eighth but Ike Whitmore nab
ded it with one hand after a hard run
Gussie Knowles played a brilliant
game for the Pelicans. His remarkable
fielding and hard hitting in the
pinches were largely responsible for
their victory.
Mark Abbott starred for the Cal
deraros when he saved the game for
them by robbing Hindelang of sure
hit in the seventh inning with the
winning run on second base.
Hindelang caught steady game
and cut off a number of wOuld-be
stealers. The Pelicans did not take
any liberties with Cazaubon's good
arm. so he had a quiet day behind the
bat for the Calderaros.
Cahill's catch of Dilenkofer's long
drive in the eighth inning and Gussie
Knowles leaping catch of line drive
over second base in the fifth inning
were the prettiest seen in some time.
This Sunday mornings game will
start promptly at 1918 o'clock. Last
Sunday, the late arrival of some OF
the Pelican players delayed the game
for three-quarters of an hour.
Umbach, star hurler and speed mar
vel of the Pelicans. will be on the
mound Sunday morning at Clease's
Park, with Barker, ex-Moose player
receiving.
After this coming Sundays game.
Jimmie Finley will organize a formid-
able team from among the stars on
both the Calderaros and Pelicans,
to represent Algiers in games with
all semi-pro teams in the City and
State.

UNION BREAD-IT SATISFIES'
SO Sayeth Alsicrs Housewives When
Speaking of the Union
Bakery Product.

Any enterprise that is the means
of enhancing a city's reputation and
standing in the world of business is
one of which the people of that COM
munity may well be proud.
Such concern in Algiers is the
Union Bakery. corner Vallette and
AliX streets, formerly known as the
Joseph Susslin bakery. which was re-
Gently purchased by Mr.. +. W. Nagel.
business man and baker of many
years experience. The Union Bakery
is one of Algiers' largest and
most modern bakeries and daily
supplies the homes of discrim-
mating housewives with the bread
for the table. With a capacity
OF 5000 lOaves of bread daily. and the
plant running to capacity. il is readily
seen what degree of popularity this
bakery enjoys among the people of
Algiers. And when an institution en-
ploys such modern methods in the con-
duct of its business, and turns out
such an excellent product as does the
result-leaders in their line.
Union Bread, the bread with the
flavor" is baked in a sanitary shop
by strictly union labor. and only the
best and purest ingredients are used.
The best Minnesota flour, pure lard.
and pure cane sugar go into its max
ing, and the finished product is the
acme of perfection. Electricity and
steam and modern machinery finish
what human hands commence. The
flour passes from the sacks to the
sitter, is ariated into the electric
dough mixer, and then passes through
the molding machines into the latest
patent ovens. Quite soon Mr.. Nagel
is to install a patent automatic dough
mixing machine, which softens the
dough before it is passed to the ovens,
thereby eliminating in the baked loaf
the holes SO often seen in bread
The Union Bakery stands squarely
with Union Labor, and Union Bread
is the product that these skilled ar
tisans turn out. The eight-hour sys-
tenn is worked, both a day and night !
shift, employing eight master bakers |
and four additional helpers in differ
ent capacities. Two delivery trucks
ire kept busy delivering Union Bread |
% the dealers. and it may be said that
Union Bread is to be found on sale at !
most all stores handling food products.
Mr.. Nagel is a native of New Or
cans, and engaged in the bakery bus
ness more than fifteen years ago, hav-
ng owned and successfully operated
,akeries at 2735 st. Ann street and 334
Il. Maurice, and it is to his credit to
ay that he has been successful in his
very effort, and such men of affairs
nd family Algiers is glad to welcome
nto business and social circles. En-
erprising and progressive, Mr.. Nagel
elongs to that class of merchants
Who are a substantial asset to every
ther business, and no doubt his al
eady large patronage will increase,
ue to his splendid principle of always
living entire satisfaction. Mr.. Nagel
5 ably assisted in the management of
is business by Mrs. Nagel.
