At the village Of Rothwell, in Dunn
friesshire, Scotland, may be seen a
small private dwelling house, a tab
let on the wall Of which indicates the
fact that the first savings bank In
that country, if not in the world, was
opened there by Rev. Henry Duncan
in 1910.
At first the people did not take kind
ly to the idea of depositing their money
with another person, and it was many
years before any considerable num-
Der of depositors was reached. But
when it was shown that it was quite
safe to deposit money, and it became
known that interest was given, the
ROthwell bank became quite an I'M
portant institution.
At first the money was kept In a
strong wooden trunk, fastened by two
heavy padlocks.

Films in Education.

A pet theory of Rex Ingram, pro-
Queer of "The -Four Horsemen of the
Apocalypse" and "The Conquering
Power" is that motion pictures will Tn
time virtually supplant oral instruc-
tion In the schools. He believes that
the eye impressions work more pow
erfully on the brain than those Of
things heard.
A test of the theory, it is said, was
made recently in Detroit, where a
school class was divided into two
groups of equal intelligence. One
group had a motion picture lesson
no explanation was given by a teacher.
The lesson lasted Is minutes. The
other group received oral instruction
from teacher for 50 minutes. Then
each group was tested on the lesson.
The average grade Of the motion pic
ture group was 1876 per cent higher
than that of the oral group.

ment OF Agricuture)
A wel-made loaf of bread is a
source of satisfaction as long as it
lasts. A burnt or pale loaf with a
Soggy interior temptS none but the
starving. The following directions for
making yeast bread are given by food
specialists in the United States De-
partment of Agriculture. If the direc-
lions are followed carefully, delicious
loaf is the result.
Cleanliness Essential.
Everything connected with the proc
ess of bread-making should be scru-
pulously clean. All utensils, therefore,
should be washed carefully; the liquids
should be scalded; the dry materials
should be kept from the dust; liquid
yeast should be kept cold and well
covered; the hands should be washed
and the nails cleaned before they
touch the dough. Wooden toothpicks,
which can be used for cleaning the
nails and then thrown away, are a
convenient part of the equipment for
bread-making.
In making stiff dough out of the
sponge, or out of the liquid containing
yeast, the -four should be added gradu
ally, and what is more important, the
dough should be beaten thoroughly, or,
when it gets too stiff for this, knead-
ed, after each addition of flour. If
this is not done, too much flour is like
ly to be added and this spOils the tex
ture of the bread The time to stop
putting in flour is when the dough can
be kneaded without sticking either to
the hands or to the board, even when
they are mfloured If for any reason
more flour than this is added, the
dough should be softened again by
means of water or milk.
Beginners often have difficulty in de-
terminng when the dough is ready to
be divided into loayes and put into
pans. A good rule is to measure its
volume When it is ready to be made
into loaves, the dough for each loaf If
made out of hard-WTT4t llOHt Hloulu
amount to three pints; if made from
soft -four to about two and one-half
plnts.

hot liquid over it and allow it to be-
come ukewarm. Mix the yeast with a
little of the lukewaTm liquid and add
It to the rest of the liquid. If convent
ent, set this aside in a warm place, not
over Sc degrees Fahrenheit, for one
hour; if not convenient to set it aside,
add the flour at once, putting in a lit
tie at a time and kneading until the
dough is of such consistency that it
sticks neither to the bowl nor to the
hands. This requires about ten min
utes.
Dough should be kept covered
while it is rising, for otherwise a
crust will form on top and interfere
with the expansion. Some h0usekeep-
ers brush the dough over with melted
fat, but this is not necessary if the
dough is well covered.
Cover, and allow to rise one and
three-quarters hours ut temperature
of Sc degrees Fahrenheit; it may be
better to set it at a lower temperature,
but the lower the temperature the
longer the time required for the rising.
Cut down the dough from the sides of
the bowl; grease the hands slightly.
Knead a little and set aside TO rise
again for one hour. With a good
bread flour, the dough should treble its
bulk in each rising. With a soft wheat
flour it should not rise much beyond
twice its volume. Divide into portions,
mold and place in creased pans Of
standard size Zone and one-half
quarts). Allow to rise until a light
touch will make a slight dent With
good bread flour this happens when
the dough reaches the top of the pans.
Bake for 80 minutes.
Short Sponge Method.
Bread can be made during the day
by what is known as the "shorJ
sponge" method All the ingredients
are the same as for the "short or
straight-dough" process, but only half
of the flour is added at first When
this mixture, which is called
sponge" is so light that it will fall
at the slightest touch, it is ready for
the addition Of the rest of the flour
Overnight Sponge Method.
Use the same proportions as for the
short process, except in the case of the
yeast, which should be one-eighth
cake Of compressed yeast for each
loaf. Use water rather than milk. In
the evening mix the yeast with water,
salt, and half of the flour, and beat
thoroughly. Cover and place at a tenn
perature Of 60 degrees to 20 degrees
Fahrenheit, or that of an ordinary
room In the morning add the sugar
and the rest Of the flour and proceed
as in the case Of the short process.

fire a shot in West Virginia. As soon
as they entered the disturbed region
the rebellious miners submitted and
were disarmed and sent home. Quiet
came so speedily that preparations
were being made last week to send
some Of the troops back to their
camps
Meanwhile another but less serious
mine war was brewing in southern
Illinois where the union tluor spar
miners were gathering, with arms, to
march through Hardin county. Their
detectives were the towns Of Rosi-
clare and Elizabcthtown. The miners
had several clashes with deputies and
detectives. who, according to the union
officials, are creatures of the mine op-
orators. Governor Small ordered an
inquiry into charges of persecution
and abuse made against the Hardin

CARE OF HAIR IS IMPORTANT
Avoid Drying Quickly With Artificial Heat; Good Soap, Brush and
 Comb Necessary.

To prevent the hair from splitting, here are a few things to remember, says the Woman's Home Comnanion. Avoid drying the hair quickly with artificial heat. Don't use hot curling irons too often. Consider carefully what soap you use. Never use one with drying qualities. See that your hair brush is in good condition. Worn bristles and combs with broken teeth are one cause of split hairs. The best brush to use, whether your hair Is dry, oily or normal, is one not al- ways so easy to get. It has the bris- ties arranged in punches, with the middle bristles the longest Don't brush your hair while it is damp, and don't use too soft a brush. For gen. eral use, have brush with moderately stiff bristles. To give luster to the hair a soft brush is all right. but for daily cleansing use avoid it.
