LIKE DAD USED TO MAKE

There was a bread making contest
the other day at a fair held at Evans
ton, III. Quite a number of women took
part and there was more or less hi
larity when 1t became known that a
mere man was also in the contest.
The hilarity turned to wonder and dis
may when It became known that the
said mere man had won the first prize.
There need be less surprise when 1t
Is understood that bread-making is,
in the older countries, very largely a
mans job. Beyond the seas, people
have obtained their loaves for cen
turtles from bakeries and the bakers
were ordinarily of the masculine gen.
der. For a long time, on the other
hand, 1t was the custom everywhere
in the United States to have only home
made bread, and its making was the
job of the good housewife or the
nanny servant. AS immigration grew.
however, we began to see bakeries
start up. operated by French. Scandi-
navian, German. Bohemian. Polish and
Italian men. These bakeries We're
small at first, but they increased in
size until the bakery has been a great
industry in America for more than
a third of a century. Still, to the pure
bred American. it still looks queer to
see a man making bread and queerer
to find him taking a prize at 1t. Also
we will find lots. OF fellows INVITING
the ladies about this masculine indi
vidual who has beaten them out al
their own job. But we think they hat
better not boast too hard. because. on

three army tents loaned by the Boy
Scouts and the Rotary Club. Besides the
sleeping tents there was a headquar-
ters tent, a dining tent for rainy
weather, and a cook shack which the
Rotary Club kindly put up a week
ahead of time so hat the girls might
have the use of it. Immediately after
arrival at camp the girls drew for
places in the tents and were divided
into squads of four for cooking, dish
washing, and water carrying, each
squad serving for n day in each
capacity. The advisers also drew for
places but they passed from tent to
tent changing in order each night.
Special events were the tent stunts.
Tent A opened the series with a min
strel show Saturday evening. Monday
evening Tent B gave a style show, and
Tuesday evening Tent c took the
whole family to the circus. Wednes-
day evening the advisers found it
necessary TO operate on Camp Teton
kaha to remove the ~wrappings of the
various CONNECTIONS which the eater
had not taken the time to remove in
the dark, and also several knocking
bones and ear puffs. After the opera
ton all were pleased to hear that it
had been so highly successful that
Camp Tetonkaha would be entirely
well by next summer.
Two hikes of considerable length
were taken. Monday the whole camp
went to the old fort north of Round
Lake taking lunch with them. There
after filling up on choke cherries Miss
Henry told the story Of Tetonkaha. 1t
was well that the cherries were found
for when the camp got back to where
the lunch was left they found that the
pigs had gotten a good share of the
sandwiches. The cooks had fortu-
nately provided we'll though, so there
was enough for both and the days
outing was undlsturbed. Tuesday the
camp took the Gypsy Trail for Bruce
about 10000 o'clock.
Sunday afternoon "a vesper service
was held at 4:30 with Rev. Fulweiler
as speaker. The last night there was
a glorious bonfire and torch light pro-
cession on the highest hill near the
camp with more stories and a farewell
sing.

TT was Rosie's seventh birthday.

On a sunny morning in September,
= year ago, little brown-eyed child,
with long braids of chestnut hair, awoke
early and ran to her mothers bed to con-
suit as to what she might do for her
birthday celebration.
The child planned happy day with
much eagerness, and was delighted when
her mother told her that her aunt, who
lived in the next block, had baked a cake
for her with seven candles in circle
about Il and had invited some Of Rosies
little friends to join her birthday party.
So the child went hopping and skipping
over to her aunt's home, where her little
cousins welcomed her and showed her the
cake.
The happy little ones played around for
while. and then wandered down to the
sidewalk in front of the aunt's house to
play some outdoor games.

knelt before the little heap Of mud which
her little cousin Frederick and her big
cousin Flora had brought from the gutter.
She trimmed the edges Of the little round,
brown pies. Absorbed in her task, she
leaned far forward, stretching forth her
tiny arms. 1t was the last time she would
over play. For an express truck that mo-

twenty-five, was, Of course, arrested. The
American Railway Express tried to escape
responsibility, saying II had employed
firm, Talbot & McKeon, to take charge OF
overflow expressage. That truck company,
1t claimed, was responsible for the regret

The stricken child was carried to Roose-
welt Hospital, where she lay for seven
weeks. The trial of the case was post
poned for thirteen months.
Little Rosie was an example Of patience.
There was not strength enough left In her
to laugh. She smiled wanly at the nurse

While Some German Papers See Some
Chance Of Further Deadlock, Pre-
VaiIIng Sentiment lie That the
Council Will Be Fair.

Berlin.-With the reference of the
Upper Silesian dispute to. the league
of nations that body for the first time
beginning to find champions in Ger
many. The atmosphere in which tho
league will work is so different from
that surrounding the supreme council
that a much more fair and impartial
decision is expected from it. 4
Although the German League So

league at Geneva prove itself less one
sided by accepting German testimony,
the majority Of reasonable people are
Indisposed to force the leagues hands
brusQuely, but wait to see II it will
not prove itself unprejudiced.
The Frankfurter Zeitung feels that
II 1t were not for the isolation of
France in continental policy, as shown
in the last session of the supreme
council, Germany would have occasion
to fear seeing the Uper Silesian ques-
ton in the hands of the league. But,
the paper says, Frances attitude to-
ward Germany is not shared by Great
Britain, japan and Italy, so they will
not throw their weight to the side Of
France in the league.
For this reason, even If 1t means q
prolongation OF the INDIGESTION on the
final fate of the disputed area, the
Zeitung, like most German papers,
prefers to see it in the hands of the
league rather than the supreme coun-
Gil. 1t expects a broader and more
just treatment, less dependent upon
the political exigencies of the moment,
for the Germans have always been
convinced that Premier Lloyd George
end BRAND used the Upper Silesian
dispute in their diplomatic juggling
and that it is the victim of play or
French and British interests.
Theodore Wolff in the Tageblatt
says that though the league council
can give only an opinion on Upper ST.
lesia, the real decision is in its hand"
he adds that Germany would get fairer
treatment from the league assembly,
explaining his duobts as to the i'm
Partially of the council by saying the

will be the English, Japanese and

he is not sure. In the end, however,
he admits, though reluctantly, that the
league Of nations may be just.

Washington.-The hope of American
officials that the disarmament confer

the first order was strengthened when
France informed the state department
that she would send her premier, Arts

cation of diplomatists.
The French notification came in the
form of message from Premier Bri-

American embassy at Paris, saying
merely that the premier would take
pleasure in personally representing
his country at the conference. 1t was
the first formal acceptance to be re-
ceived from any of the, invited nations.
