About Bread

In olden times, and even in times
comparatively recent. housewives
were accustomed to bake their own
bread. The term homemade bread"
stood for excellence, and except in a
limited number of communities
bakers bread was not to be depended
gestibility.
Today the baking industry is
working shoulder to shoulder with
the housekeepers, asking the women
how to make the commercial loaf
measure up to the high standards of
the home. The result has been sur
prisins. In the average home the house
wife finds it actually more economical
to buy at least part of her bread, and
so successful have been the efforts of
the bakers that commercial bread and
other products are equal in flavor nu-
tritive qualities and digestibility to the
best homemade bread ever baked.
For the sake Of variety, however.
housewives will always like to serve
a certain amount of homemade bread.
and it is worth while to learn how to
standpoint of both flavor and nutrition.
Those who have made careful study
or bread tell us that the most important
points are (l) general appearance. (2)
flavor. f3) lightness, (y crumb or
soft portion, t5) color and 60 dis
tribution of gas.
First, as to the general appearance
The size and shape of the loaf are first
considered. whether it will cut in con-
venient Slices and. whether the size is
such as to avoid waste and dryness.
The color and texture of the crust
come next. This should be an even
golden brown and crisp enough to be
crust is not SO digestible as is one
where the moisture has been partially
dried out.
The flavor and odor of the loaf as a
whole form another good test. The
characteristic ..nutty" flavor of good
bread is like nothing else, and whether
the loaf be made at home or in the
bakery there should be evidence Of
good materials, well blended and we'll
baked
The crumb is coarse tough and moist
or fine, tender and dry, according as
to whether the baker has done his work
properly. Crumb of the first classi-
fication is pasty in the stomach and
apt to lead to starch indigestion
When we speak of the even diStribu-
ton Of gas this is only another way Of
saying that the bread is light, the bub-
bles formed in the raising process being
we'll distributed, and the loaf as
whole being porous without having
large holes crisp without being dry
and firm without being hard.

Brief Bits of
Furniture History
"A Series

The Gothic type of fur
niture first became promi-
nent about the 1.100 A. D.
The earliest type was pro-
fuse in the use of Christian
symbols and for that
reason is today the type of
furniture and furnishings
used in most Churches.
England did not begin to
use this type until 11se
a. .. From that time on.
however, it spread with
great rapidity throughout
the British Isles.
4 notable example Of the
best type of the earlier
Gothic Is in the Abbey
Church Of St. Denis. While
Il world wide example is the
Cathedral of Notre Dame
in Paris. The Gothic in
fluence fingered until the
year 1915 A. d. Practically
all of the countries OF
Europe used some type of
Gothic. A brief summary
of the dates is as follows:
France 100 A. D. Eng
land 1889 A. D. Germany
1850 A. D. Italy 1850 A. D.
Spain 1890 4. D.
The above dates mark
the time that this type of
furniture was first used.

In this run the emphasis was on
the nonstop part of it, and nothing
IN the way of mechanical adjust

forward progress Of the,car.

Motor Car Plays
Role of BrOnchO
in Houston, Tex,

In these days of high-powered mo-
tor ears, traffic laws, parking ordi-
nances, n-accidcnt weeks, anti
speed campaigns and other fads and
fancies of the workaday world, it
is seldom that Il motorist in the
farthest reaches of his fancy, dares
to think of using his automobile as
a rarin, tearin', buckin' broncho,
fit for capturing and killing a real
live bull.
However, n Paige seven passenger
automobile, used az a police emer-
gency machine in Houston, Texas,
emulated Bill Hart $ dashing horse
the other day, and like bucking
bronchO, went ON q hunt for Il wild
bull, according to a story received
here this week by p. l.. Moore, man
ager of Imperial Valley Finance cor
poration, Paige and Jewett distri-
Dutors in this county.
The bull, ferocious and mad with
the heat-broke from its pen and
enjoying its freedom to the utmost,
made it's way to the crowded down
town streets. One frightened wo-
man, says, Mr.. Moore called for the
police, and III lieu of a horse, the
Paige emergency car, loaded with
police, riot guns and newspaper re-
porters was sent to shoot the
bull.
'Now while the Paige emergency
car is not painted red, it is maroon
in color and on a hot day maroon
was red enough for the bull. So
when the infuriated animal saw the
machine it charged, but a quick
twist Of the wheel sent Mr.. Bull
spinning to the side. Then the ami
NAL started its retreat and the
Paige emergency still in its wild
west role of bucking broncho,
started in pursuit.
''Eventually, peppered with bul-
lets, the bull fell over dead and the
danger was over. Unharmed, the
police turned Paige toward more
peaceful pursuits, like hunting Grim
mails, etc, and rode back to police
Headquarters. Members of the
Houston emergency squad praised
the ear for its performance during
the chase"
