School Head Plays
"a Marbles With Boys
tBy United Press

Gallstin, Mo-, March 2S.-
Marble playing has been adopted
as a major sport in the public
schools here.
l.. NJ. Hosman, superintendent
of schools, who himself knuckles
down with the youngsters every
day before school and during re-
cesscs, coaches the sport, which
he declares has increased the eff
ficiency of his pupils 30 per cent.
BOSNIAN not only encourages
the game, but gives demonstra'
tions on how to CORY the marbles
without dropping them on the
floor during schou. hours.
Hosmsn also encourages the
spirit Of fair play. When young
ster has had a streak of bad luck,
Ell stakes him 10 fresh supply
Of marbles. These he buys from
the winner, or from one Of the
overstocked players who wants a
price of OWE.
Hosman's pupils are never late,
but parents complain they spend
more time at school than is real
| ~ necessary.

THE EVOLUTION OF FLOUR

The conversion of wheat into flour was one of the earliest developments of civilization, and even the primitive races in the dawn of history sub mitted the grain to a coarse pounding between stones. Perhaps the oldest flour mills" in existence are the rude stones found among the re- maies of the ancient lake dwellings in Switzerland.
 The refined white flour now gen. orally used Is a comparatively mod ern innovation. the elaborate pro- cesses to which the grain is sub jected in order to make the "fin- ished produce" fine and white having been largely developed within the last half-century.
 The Inventor of Graham bread and flour was the Rev. Sylvester Ora ham, New England clergyman. who devoted the major part of his life to the advocacy of a vegetarian dietic theory. In 1889 hP introduced Gra- ham bread, made 5f unsifted wheat flour, and thereafter urged it's use ip books, pamphle E and lectures.
