tire to the sistine chapel and escort
their two new brothers before the
pontiff. One after the other, the two
new cardinals kneel, and with re-
newed blessings and much Latin
ritual there follows the imposition of
the red hat. In this ceremonial the

somewhat resembling oatmeal thin
round cakes are made.
In India, the natives eat round,
nat cakes OF unlevened wheat bread,
called 'chapatties.' The cook shapes
them with his hands and bakes them
on griddle on the Goals. They re-
semble to some extent the thin sheets
made of wheat flour and water, called
Scones, which are eaten in Scotland
"One of the most interesting Of the
unleavened breads is the passover

those days, however, the grains used
were barley and one-grained wheat.
Vienna Roll Developed Here.
"Egyptologists believe that barley
was the first grain used by the anci-
ents in their bread -making, but wheat
must have come into use soon after
barley. Loaves of bread are repre-
sented in sculpture on ancient monu-
ments. There were two quite familiar
varieties-a small round loaf some
what like our muffin and an elongated
roll sprinkled on top with seeds like
the modern Vienna roll. Incidentally,
the Vienna roll was introduced into
the United States in the civil war,
when a war bakery operated in the
basement of the United States Capitol
turned out products to feed the popu-
lace of Washington.
'"The Egyptians evidently first
learned the use of leaven and taught
it to the Greeks, Jews and Romans,
who passed it on through the ma
tions they subjected.
NO story on bread would be com

the black bread of Russia. which has
